What 5 critics said
Highest score first · all converted to 0–100- 80Trusted Reviews
The first slim phone that makes sense, offering a large battery and quick charging at a reasonable price, with only the mid-tier chipset as a notable weakness.
Read Trusted Reviews review - 80Expert Reviews
The best and cheapest ultra-slim phone so far, but the reviewer cannot recommend the form factor to most buyers because of compromises in cameras and performance.
Read Expert Reviews review - 70Tech Advisor
The best ultra-slim phone so far with good battery and design, but cluttered software, no telephoto lens and limited updates make it hard to recommend.
Read Tech Advisor review - 70TechRadar
A cheaper alternative to the iPhone Air that lacks standout appeal; unless thinness matters to you, your money goes further on other phones.
Read TechRadar review - 60The Verge
A convincing blueprint for thin phones that keeps battery life and durability, undermined by intrusive bloatware and ads, basic cameras and modest power.
