The verdict, up front

A periscope and flagship silicon, mid-range money.

T4 Ultra is unusual for the price — an all-big-core Dimensity 9300+ paired with a genuine 3× periscope and flagship ingress sealing for $400. The missing ultrawide is the give-back. For buyers who rank zoom and raw speed over a third lens, it punches far above its tier.
