My Verdict
The Display & Camera is the main highlight features of the phone & also has good storage options. But in the era where Oneplus & Poco exist with Snapdragon 845 for under Rs.35000 who would buy this phone with just the Snapdragon 660 Which is available on phones like MI A2 that are cost half of it.
