  Specifications:
  1ghz single core MTK processor (slow), 512MB RAM, 4GB internal memory, 800 x 480 screen, 5mpx camera (probably not autofocus)

  Seems to be a rebadged version of this:

  Spending an extra $50-70 would get you a much better dual sim Huawei smartphone, and heck of a lot better build quality.

  Still waiting on the release of more Nexus 4 phones, although to be honest if it takes much longer I'm going to give up.

  This phone doesn't seem too bad, probably not what I'm after but for people on a budget or for tweens/teens this could be a good entry-level smartphone, it will take some market share from the budget smartphone manufacturers for sure
