The screen to body ratio is claimed to be 90.5%. Under the hood, the Snapdragon 636 or the 660 handle CPU duties depending on which variant you choose. The primary camera on the rear is a 16MP shooter along with AI scene recognition, while the secondary 2MP sensor is used during portrait shots for depth sensing purposes. There is a fingerprint scanner housed at the back of these devices, and the phone comes with an enormous 5000mAh battery which justifies the mammoth display.
