    A stellar all-rounder with great cameras, fast performance and exceptional battery life, though priced awkwardly and similar to last year's model.

    Android CentralHands-on review · 2026

    A camera and battery powerhouse with fast charging, but launch pricing is steep and gains are small, so the reviewer suggests waiting or buying last year's model.

    Excellent hardware with strong performance, battery and cameras, but a big price increase and few upgrades make it hard to recommend over the cheaper standard model.

    A great sub-flagship with an excellent camera set, quick performance and a mammoth battery, offering modest improvements over last year's model.
