The general performance is smooth and it does get a little hot while gaming, but it is capable of giving users fast performance. Gaming is good at medium settings (30fps) in demanding games like Genshin Impact. Overall, this is a good phone for stock Android lovers.
However, keep in mind that Google, like Samsung and Apple, does not include a fast charger in the retail box with the smartphone. This could be a deal breaker for some, but others may consider using an old charger to save money. Additionally, it only supports 27W fast charging, which is less than what some other Android phones offer out of the box.
