A good smartphone to do Sports, Take pics under Waterfalls, Go out in Brazilians carnavals without fear of everythink wet. Rain is nothing. Good battery to camp for 2 days with normal use (without nets), the rear cam can substitute a huge and non WP CamOnly device, if it isn't your work.
The biggest pro is the biggest con! The Display! It's big but 540p is like the minimum it could have gotten for 4.8"! A 720p screen would have gone just great! It is not such a big deal but still! The camera isn't what i was expecting from a 8MP one! Its quality is just average!
I've only had this phone for a few days so some of my ratings could be biased. First impressions? It's pretty good.
The phone is very easy to use, has a large screen, is fast and performs all of the basic stuff quite well.
There is barely any lag and the screen is responsive almost all the time (sometimes freezes if there are too many actions at once.)
Web browsing and gaming is fairly fast thanks to its quad core processor. The UI keeps lag to a minimum.
The battery life is pretty good too. Under heavy usage - gaming and web browsing, 55% was lost over a period 3.30 - 4 hours.
And now the bad stuff.
Screen resolution is average considering alot phones out there have a 720p screen at this price point. This phone has a 540p display - 229ppi which doesn't make the screen as sharp as I would like to be. A 720p display would be perfect for the price.
Next is the camera. You get an 8mp camera which performs poorly in low light. Pictures can become blurry due to weird autofocus. Not to mention you can only take pictures in an aspect ratio of 4:3 when using 8MP rather than the standard 16:9.
Then there is the low amount of usable memory. Only 5GB which is poor if you are someone who likes to game a lot. An Sdcard card can be fitted but for games, it's kinda pointless. I was hoping for at least 5.5 - 6GB.
I think this phone is pretty average for the price - £125. It has some bad points to it but overall it's a decent phone.
