The telephoto lens offers 8x optical-quality zoom and up to 40x digital zoom. For video creators, it supports 4K Dolby Vision recording at 120 fps. The front houses an 18MP Centre Stage camera with autofocus.
Powering this experience is a built-in lithium-ion battery that promises up to 37 hours of video playback. The device supports fast charging, capable of reaching a 50% charge in just 20 minutes with a 40W adapter, and also offers 25W MagSafe wireless charging.
Other premium features include the customizable Action Button, dedicated Camera Controls, IP68 water and dust resistance, and next-generation Wi-Fi 7 connectivity. The phone measures 8.75mm in thickness and weighs 231 grams.
