  • The camera is basic, with a 1.3 MP rear sensor and no optical image stabilization, providing minimal photography options.
  • Battery life is supported by a 1000 mAh capacity, but it does not offer fast or wireless charging.
  • The software is unspecified, indicating a lack of advanced features commonly found in modern smartphones.
  • Connectivity options include Bluetooth 2.1 but lack WiFi and 5G support, limiting internet access.
