Technicalities aside it takes clear pictures with good dynamic range, contrast and white balance. The human skin tones comes out very natural and produces one of the best night photos in this price range.

Under the hood, we have the Snapdragon 8s Gen 3, which outperforms any other chipset the competitionn has to offer - Motorola Edge 60 (comes with MTK Dimensity 7400) and the Nothing Phone 3a (comes with Snapdragon 7s Gen 3).
