Questions about this item

Does the box include a charger or earbuds, or must they be bought separately?

The phone ships unlocked with a USB-C cable and SIM eject tool. Power adapter and earbuds are not included and must be purchased separately.

Is the 128 GB version enough storage, or should I wait for a larger capacity?

This model is offered only in 128 GB with 8 GB RAM. No higher-capacity variant is listed, so 128 GB is the sole option.

What does the 64 MP main sensor actually deliver for everyday photos and 8K video?

The triple rear array uses a 64 MP primary sensor alongside 12 MP ultra-wide and telephoto lenses, enabling 4320p video capture and high-detail stills.
