Hardware Specifications and Thermal Management
Built for endurance, the newly released smartphone measures 166.5mm in length, 78.2mm in width, and 8.8mm in thickness, tipping the scales at 217 grams.

To keep temperatures stable during heavy workloads, engineers installed a 5,300 square millimeter AirFlow Vapour cooling system. Photography duties are handled by an Artificial Intelligence-powered 50-megapixel primary rear camera featuring an f/1.8 aperture, a 75-degree field of view, a 5P lens, and autofocus, supported by an 8-megapixel front-facing camera with an f/2.0 aperture.
