What to know before buying

Listing details to confirm

The listing is inconsistent about the camera and display: the title and feature text claim 48 MP and 1080p video with a 2.4-inch IPS screen, while detail fields also list 30 effective still resolution, 2160p video, a 2.4-inch OLED screen, 2304 x 1080 pixels and 4800W Pixels. It also gives both 3 optical zoom and 16x digital zoom, describes front and rear cameras but lists no autofocus in one field while other fields claim autofocus. Confirm the intended configuration with the selected listing. Battery life is stated as about 6 hours, with use conditions unspecified.
