The navigational buttons are on screen and the bezels are kept to a minimum. The front panel also houses the front camera and the sensors.

The volume key is placed on the left side while the power key along with SIM card tray is placed on the right side. The keys have good overall feedback. At the top, we have the audio jack while the micro USB slot along with speaker unit is located at the bottom. The rear panel houses the 13MP camera, dual LED flash, and the fingerprint scanner. There are two black bands running on the top and bottom section of the rear panel and adds up to the looks. The fingerprint scanner has a projection towards inside making it easy to use. Overall, the phone has excellent build quality and feel sturdy.

The phone comes with a 13MP rear camera and 5MP front camera for selfies and video calls. In our initial round of testing, we found the camera to be quite capable of shooting great quality photos. We will have a detailed review on the same. There is also 64GB internal storage out of which around 49GB is available in the first boot. There is also an option to expand the storage via micro SD card available with hybrid SIM.

One of the USP of this smartphone is that it comes with a dual-system (dual space feature) which allows its users to have two accounts on WhatsApp, Facebook and other social media apps the phone.  This, in turn, allows users to separate the personal stuff from work.
