I bought this absolute beast of a phone a while ago, it\'s durable, fast, looks good and has good storage, I\'m not sure if it\'s supposed to be 93.3 degrees fahrenheit though!!?! Maybe that\'s just cause today\'s one of the hottest days all year but damn this thing held up well

Positives

Almost everything

Negatives

Definitely the camera, I didn\'t buy it for that t.

Alternative Phone Suggestion: The iconic Nokia, the indestructible one.

I bought it on Flash sale from a well-known Chinese page at a very good price, at first the phone restarted from time to time in the miui 12.5 update the problem was fixed for games it has a good performance that you do need the ventilation complement exterior by pelter plate highly recommended and useful to lower the temperature of the phone.
