For clarity, that’s Verizon’s ultra-fast network, typically only supported by flagships. But that’s hardly the only selling point worth discussing.

And to that end, it’s packed the 6.78-inch FHD handset with a triple camera array. The latter of which is led by a 48-megapixel primary snapper, backed by a 118-degree view ultra-wide sensor. Last but not least, a 2-megapixel snapper is included for macro shots. Around the front, the company packed a 16-megapixel selfie shooter in a punch-hole cutout. Under the hood, Orbic equipped its Myra 5G US with a battery that’s meant to last all day and fast charging. In fact, that’s Quick Charge 3.0 is supported by the Qualcomm Snapdragon 750G powering the handset. Summarily, the 5,000mAh capacity battery charges up using 18W charging via USB-C. The company backed that arrangement up with 6GB of RAM and 64GB of onboard storage with microSD card support to make that expandable. With support for up to 1TB of additional storage. Additionally, Orbic indicates that this is its first phone to support “Verizon Adaptive Sound” on the audio front. That’s an audio solution that helps this phone reproduce spatial surround sound experiences with any headphones or apps. And that supports content for Dolby Atmos as well.
