What’s more, it also has Duel MEMs microphones for clearer voice quality, and a new 5-magnet speaker for better audio performance.

“Live-streaming is the in-thing. But most of the existing phones’ live videos offer poor quality’ both image and audio quality isn’t good due to which many youngsters shy away from going live.
