bought one for my wife. Bang for the buck! Very smooth and fluid, although wala pamasyadong apps dahil bago pa nga lang. the 2GB ram is icing on the cake, kaya sarap gamitin. It’s also so light..

This could’ve been the best phone for me if it has OTG Support. =( Please correct me if I’m wrong, and hopefully I am. =)

rmrhsit · 12 years ago

It’s fat and batt nonremovable but the biggest drawback of this phone is there’s no back light for the 3 home buttons. Try using that inside a cinema.

Orange · 12 years ago

Your phone needs to be on silent or airplane mode inside the cinema. At the most it’s on vibrate mode so one can take emergency calls. You only need to swipe your finger or tap your headset to take an emergency call. What’s the drawback again of not having back light for 3 home buttons?

ernie · 12 years ago

what do you need backlight for? even in the dark the buttons wont move out of place. its just 3 buttons on left, mid and right. i dont know how you will miss pressing one in the dark.

Junox · 12 years ago
