In this case, there are two 12MP cameras at the back of the phone, one with a monochrome sensor and another with an RGB sensor. In the front, you get an 8MP selfie camera with a wide-angle lens. All this is packed in a 6.97mm thin metal shell along with a 4000 mAh battery which supports fast charging. On the software front, Android 7.0 Nougat runs the show with EMUI 5.1 on top.
