Excellent phone considering the (cheap) price
Phone owned for less than a year

Overall solid phone that feels good in hand and is easy to use. Really disappointed that you can't get all the applications that you want/need with Windows. Also not the perfect phone if a lot of the time you're using it to take quick photos, the camera takes time to open and shoot the photo. Yet the quality of photo itself is really outstanding for such a cheap phone. Also want to mention that the flashlight broke 4 months after I got the phone, so had to give it back to fix it. Warranty also changed the battery of the phone, after which it seems the phone is able to last longer and doesn't overheat as much as before when browsing internet for a long period of time.

Best affordable flagship smartphone on the planet
Phone owned for less than a month

Best affordable flagship smartphone on the planet. Live tiles is very useful. Glance screen is god send. With the arrival of Windows 10, I am now able to use the same user friendly Windows I have been using on my PC for years.
