I bought this cellphone around July 2020 and until now I am still satisfied for daily use. In addition to a beautiful body, the system software support for this smartphone is quite long (even though it is a budget class smartphone) with 2 Android updates and 3 MIUI version updates. Very rare in smartphones in its class! One thing I feel is lacking is the lack of NFC and front camera stabilization. But overall I am satisfied! Alhamdulillah.

Positives
  • Compact and beautiful body
  • Long software update support
  • Satisfactory performance for standard usage
Negatives
  • Lack of NFC
  • The rear camera body really stands out
  • Support for fast charging only 18W
