It sports a 5.3-inch Quad HD IPS Quantum Display, Qualcomm Snapdragon 820 processor, 4GB RAM, 32GB internal storage, 16MP + 8MP dual rear cameras, 8MP front camera, and 2,800mAh battery. Take a look at our review here.

Why buy a “brand new” 2-year old phone? The reason why they keep dropping the prices is for them to get rid of their old stock. If they had priced it reasonably during launch, then they wouldn’t have this problem.
