The rock-solid device comes in a gorgeous matte finish, with the front minimalist aside from the glorious 5.7-inch Quad HD display. Under the hood, it rocks a top rung Kirin 960 (superceded only by the recent AI-powered Kirin 970), with a whopping 6GB of RAM and 64GB of internal storage.

There’s a 4,000mAh battery that supports fast charging, and it originally ran Android Nougat with EMUI 5.1.

In the camera department, the device features 12MP dual-camera setup (RGB + mono) on the rear, while the front gets a commendable 8MP selfie shooter with Wide Aperture and Beauty modes.
