The display is sharp and vibrant but quite over-saturated, however, to control the brightness and saturation you can use the third-party app from the Play Store. To prevent the display fro any kind of scratches there is latest Corning Gorilla Glass 5 protection.

Processing Power and Performance

All the weight of performance is on the shoulder of Qualcomm MSM8976 Pro Snapdragon 653 processor having 8 core clocked at the 1.95 GHz Cortex-A72, This CPU is designed to support advanced features like an X9 LTE modem.

Although for day to day usage it is running without any trouble.
