Cons
Our editorial view of this model’s strengths and limitations.
The MediaTek Dimensity 7400-Ultra is primarily aimed at everyday use. Messages, video and navigation are within its comfort zone, but demanding games need lower graphics settings. A high screen refresh rate does not guarantee matching frame rates in every game.
There is no dedicated telephoto camera. Distant subjects rely on digital zoom, which loses fine textures as you zoom further. A phone with optical zoom is more convenient for concerts, wildlife or portraits from a distance.
There is no microSD slot, so storage cannot be expanded with a card. The system and apps use some of the 256 GB. If you record plenty of video, you will need to move files to a computer or cloud storage periodically.
