It features a 5.2-inch LCD display screen with a resolution of 1,080 x 1,920 pixels (Full HD). Under the hood, expect two different versions of the phone (Qualcomm Snapdragon 617 octa-core chipset): one with 1.5GHz, while the other with 1.2GHz. Other specs include a large 4GB of RAM and 32GB/64GB of built-in memory storage.
