## Description

Review: Awesome phone with all the features intact with low price tag - Value for money... I am using this phone for past 2 months,I could not find any problem.You can bet on it.
Review: Awesome smartphone for people on a budget - My brother, an ex-Android fan had to switch to this due to its low price and boy he was satisfied. Even as a tech-savvy and advanced user he expressed his delight with the phone a lot. It still lacks a few important things that I will list but at this price range, I think it is unbeatable. -1 stars if you don't care about the price. A few things I wish were different: 1. Slightly better build quality. The plastic cover feels good but I still expected something a bit more sturdy. 2. Windows Phone 8 is GREAT. Yes I'm serious but it can definitely use more apps 3. The new IE on WP8 is great too, but I'd like to be able to use Firefox or Chrome too occasionally. 4. 8 GB storage is not much, especially almost half of it is used by the system. I mean this is probably related to the low price and since it has an SD card slot not a very big deal.
