What does that mean in plain words?
Chipset: Snapdragon 480+ 5G — entry level (45/100) for messaging, browsing and video; not aimed at heavy gaming.
Battery: 5,200 mAh — a large capacity by market standards. Capacity is an indicator, not a measurement: real endurance depends on the display, chipset and your usage, and we have not measured it.
Charging: 22.5W — standard (rated charging power; actual charge time varies with the charger and temperature).
Display: IPS LCD HD+, 6.56-inch — an LCD panel; lower contrast than OLED, and the norm at this price.
Camera: 13+2 MP (2 lenses) plus a 5 MP front camera. Megapixels and lens count describe the setup, not image quality — real results depend on the sensor and processing, which we have not tested.
