Short Review

  • The verykool s5025 Helix features a compact design with dimensions of 143.5 x 72.5 x 7.9 mm and a weight of 136 grams, making it lightweight and easy to handle.
  • Its 5.0-inch IPS LCD display offers a resolution of 720 x 1280 pixels, providing decent clarity at approximately 294 ppi, though it lacks HDR support.
