However, there are also some shortcomings as well. The body is covered by ceramic, making it slippery to hold at times. About the camera, the night vision mode of the phone is not really on par with its competitors, and the rear 16MP camera does not have OIS function. There is no way to expand the storage, and the battery is also non-removable. Finally, ceramic vibration during video calls may be quite annoying to many people.
