On the front, the screen is using a 2.5D curved Corning Gorilla Glass + IPS LCD with an incredible 1.75mm slim bezels. The resolution is 2280 x 1080 pixels and the Fullview is said to be a 2.0 version, all because of the top-notch design that allows a 90% screen-to-body ratio.

For the dual rear camera, the secondary 5MP sensor functions as a depth sensor as per standard for most smartphones, providing the bokeh effect for the users, which can be adjusted after taking a shot with the Shot Refocus feature in the editing page. There's also the A.I. HDR feature that captures three photos at the same time and then, combined by the A.I. for the best lighting in it, eliminating the shadows. 

Of course, it won't be complete without the A.I. Face Beauty. As most of you know already, it can enhance your face digitally with skin tone, texture and much more. Apparently, there's also Natural Light, Studio Light and Monochrome mode available so that's nice, as well as AR Stickers for the selfie lovers.
