- Its 4.0-inch Super LCD display offers a resolution of 480 x 800 pixels, resulting in a pixel density of approximately 233 ppi.
- Performance is driven by a dual-core 1.0 GHz Cortex-A5 processor and 4GB of RAM, providing adequate multitasking capabilities for basic tasks.

- Connectivity options include Wi-Fi 802.11 b/g/n, Bluetooth 4.0, and microUSB 2.0, but it does not support 5G or NFC.
- The absence of a front-facing camera limits selfie capabilities, as it only includes a 0 MP option.
