Overview

» Enlarge

The good:
  • Dual-SIM tech is well implemented
  • Good call quality
  • Decent camera
  • MicroSD card slot
The bad:
  • Unresponsive touch panel
  • No 3G or Wi-Fi
  • No predictive text
  • Poor battery life
The bottomline:

The genius of the dual-SIM technology is overshadowed by missing basic features, poor navigation and terrible battery life. The idea is right, but this isn't a phone we'd recommend.

Editors’ rating:

5.2/10

RRP: AU$399.00
