Games like PUBG mobile can run on HD settings easily without any visible lag.


It has 2 back cameras (12+5), it may feel like a downgrade but it is not as the camera has a wider aperture (f/1.8) with sony IMX 486 sensor.


Photos taken from the back cameras are bright and colorful in daylight, while indoor, photos taken are steady with punchy colors.


Despite its lightweight design, the Max Pro M2 features a gigantic 5000 MAH battery which will last one and a half days with heavy use according to digit.in
