The version arriving in Brazil is the same as the internationally official version, on the front there is a 6.5-inch IPS LCD screen with HD+ resolution (1600 x 720 pixels) and 90 Hz refresh rate technology, which provides greater image fluidity in compatible applications, or games.
Speaking to Mobile Time this month, the company's CEO Florian Seiche said: "The brand has moved forward and is the fifth best seller in 41 countries and third in some markets such as the UK. It also stated that it has expanded its portfolio of B2B equipment and services in Latin America, such as government and education in Brazil, and IoT in Mexico and Colombia.
At the top of the display is a teardrop-shaped notch that houses the 8MP selfie camera. There are three sets of sensors on the back of the phone, the main one is 50 MP, then two lenses for macro and depth effect, both with 2 MP and support artificial intelligence (AI) for image post-processing.
