very good phablet for the price
Phone owned for less than a year

I'm not quite happy with the operating system windows mobile 8.1 but I think this phablet will be perfect with windows 10. Except for the operating system it is already great. Great build quality, huge replaceable battery and it's cheap.

Great phone, Crap OS
Phone owned for less than a month

At last I found a phone that had all the specs I wanted ,or would put up with at a great price... then I turned it on. MS would have done well to customize android, than to screw up so bad with 8.1 . Im sorry I bought this now. My only hope is that 10.1 is a real improvement , and replacement... rather than just a glorified patch for such an inferior OS
