Cons
Our editorial view of this model’s strengths and limitations.
OSCAL PILOT 3 weighs 357 g and is 14.5 mm thick. You will feel it in a pocket, and holding it in one hand for long periods is less comfortable. It suits buyers who are happy to trade compactness for its features.
The MediaTek Dimensity 6300 is a sensible fit for everyday apps, but demanding games may need lower graphics settings. A high display refresh rate alone does not guarantee an equally high frame rate in games.
There is no dedicated telephoto camera in the listed setup. Zooming relies on digital cropping, so a high megapixel count on the main camera is not a substitute for optical zoom.
The LCD cannot produce OLED-like deep blacks. This is most noticeable when viewing dark video scenes or interfaces at night. A high resolution or refresh rate does not remove that panel limitation.
