Short Review
- The Haier L7 features a sleek design with dimensions of 152 x 76 x 7.9 mm and a weight of 160g, utilizing an aluminum frame and a glass front made of Asahi Dragontrail.
- Its 5.5-inch IPS LCD display offers a resolution of 1080 x 1920 pixels, providing a sharp pixel density of approximately 401 ppi, but lacks HDR support.

- The battery capacity is 3000mAh, supporting 18W charging but lacking wireless charging options.
- Running on Android 7.1 Nougat, the software experience is basic, with no stereo speakers but a standard headphone jack included.
- Connectivity options are limited to Wi-Fi 802.11 b/g/n, Bluetooth 4.0, and USB Type-C 2.0, with no support for 5G or NFC.
- The device is available in multiple colors including Gold, Gray, Silver, Black, and Red.
