The SoC Snapdragon 662 together with 4GB of memory RAM they will be able to ensure sufficient computing power for basic operations such as watching video content, browsing the web and running some not too complex video games.

In terms of connectivity, nothing is really missing, even the module finds its place NFC, a jack da 3,5mm for headphones and a physical programmable key. There is no 5G modem, but compatibility with networks LTE 4G they will be more than sufficient for most uses, offering a good internet browsing speed as well as downloading / uploading your data.
