2-minute Review [Negatives]	At 200g, the phone is reasonably hefty It also picks up greasy fingerprints a little too easily However, this is not the most powerful phone at this price and gaming on this phone is a no go - the Realme Narzo 10A and Redmi 9 Prime both offer outstanding performance at this price No fast charging However, if you want a bit more power in your phone and a higher resolution display the Redmi 9 Prime is a good alternative at this price, though it's not for stock Android lovers	At 200g, the phone is reasonably hefty It also picks up greasy fingerprints a little too easily Sunlight legibility isn't great However, this is not the most powerful phone at this price and gaming on this phone is a no go - the Realme Narzo 10A and C3 both offer outstanding performance at this price No fast charging However, if you want a bit more power in your phone the Narzo 10A is an excellent phone at this price, though it's not for stock Android lovers
