Buyers who want a carrier-locked phone

This unit works on the T-Mobile and MetroPCS networks using a Nano SIM card. It supports GSM, CDMA, HSPA, EVDO, LTE and 5G technologies. The Phantom Black finish and 9.5 out of 10 cosmetic grade suit users who want a like-new appearance. Shoppers needing dual-SIM capability, a microSD slot, or a different colour option should consider other models.

50 MP triple rear camera

The rear system combines a 50 MP wide lens, a 10 MP telephoto lens with 3x optical zoom, and a 12 MP ultrawide lens. Video recording reaches 8K at 24 fps, 4K at 30 or 60 fps, and 1080p at up to 240 fps. The 10 MP front camera has an f/2.2 aperture. Buyers requiring higher-resolution front video or additional telephoto reach should look elsewhere.

Questions about this item

How do I insert the Nano SIM correctly, and which way up does the tray go?

Power off the phone, insert the ejection pin into the small hole on the lower edge, pull out the tray, place the Nano SIM with the gold contacts facing down and the notched corner aligned, then slide the tray back in until it clicks.

What component will need replacement first, and how often?

The sealed battery is the part that ages; after two to three years of daily charging you will notice shorter run-time and should have it swapped by a repair shop.

What thermal limit appears first during extended 8K recording?

The Snapdragon 8 Gen 1 will throttle sustained performance once the internal temperature reaches its safety ceiling, so 8K@24fps clips may drop frames or stop after several minutes.
