All the buttons are there except the 3.5MM jack, the position of the bottom and top speakers is different because when you hold them, your hands might cover them.
Display
It comes with a 6.28 inch AMOLED FHD display, 120Hz fast refresh rate & gorilla glass Victus. It has a 12-bit display too, I did not notice much difference, it also supports Dolby vision & HDR10+ The bezels and the chin are very slim.
Performance
It has an SD 8Gen1 processor, they claimed an Antutu score of 1M, and when we tried it showed 865007. We have an 8GB+256GB variant, it also comes in 8GB+128GB & 12GB+256GB. The performance was top-notch, the screen is a bit small for gaming, generally, gamers prefer the big screen. But if you want a compact phone with games, this is the one. It has a 480Hz sampling rate. The position of the speakers is a bit weird, we did not spend much time on the phone, the SD888 was getting too hot. But we will have to play a bit longer to be sure.

Camera
The primary sensor is good, IMX766 which has a Sony sensor of 50MP, secondary sensor is 13MP Ultrawide, And a 5MP Tele macro camera with which you can click macro photos and videos. The photos are good. The saturation level is good for the primary camera, but not so much for the ultra-wide. The 32MP selfie camera is okayish, is a bit soft. You can click 8K@24FPS videos, very few smartphones allow 8K videos 4K@60FPS is included too & the Fov of the ultra-wide camera is 123°.
