When unpacking came the first little wow factor: Even with battery you realize the phone barely in his hand. In complete contrast to my old Huawei. Also regarding the thickness of it scores points. The compact external dimensions it is very comfortable to hold, despite 4.7 inches. Greater there should be (in my opinion) not now. The screen has "only" qHD but pixels can not be numbered, everything looks sharp and colorful. The brightness can be changed in increments of 1%, so it's never too bright or too dark. Even in bright sunlight, you can still recognize the screen I think.
After switching on and the first set I started zuzubomben the phone with apps and games to test, to see how smoothly it is still running. Quick Note: From the 8GB memory remain still for about 3.2 Apps, but most can be swapped out onto the storage card. For me personally, it is sufficient, photos and videos to land anyway on the memory card. In the performance I was surprised, games ran without any lag that change the menus also ran smoothly, even if you push from one game from the home button. The web pages have loaded quickly and were not hanging. Thus we can say: For people like me, who occasionally play a game, Whatsapp, Facebook surfing, and take some pictures the mobile phone is more than adequate. Whether hardcore gamer so I can not say be happy, but so far siehts already out after :-)
The camera triggers with 8MP. The Ergenisse hew a not from the stool, for proper photos but you should already use a digital camera. For snapshots, but definitely enough! In addition, since there still nice features such as panoramic, series, sports and Catch timer recording.
The Sound I evaluate times as well, so I hear no music, just the alarm clock and the ringing tone, if times who is calling.
Well one last, important point: the battery. What can I say? I'm excited! Three days are at moderate use really a problem, but at night I turn off the Wi-Fi. Have it now again 14 hours on, have surfed, played Quizzduell, SMS sent, visited Whatsapp and Facebook and now have to 00:13 still 87%. Do I now display the time remaining there is still something of 115 hours. For me it's great, though others may need to load every day anyway, but then you should be equal to think about how it would be with a weaker battery :-)
Let's talk about the disadvantages:
- Unfortunately, the touch panel keys for "Back" and "settings" are not illuminated.
- Reception fluctuates within a few seconds several times from full to a bar and back again. Disconnections I had not yet, but I will continue to monitor it.
- Sorry, no notification LED
I hope to have some help, I find the price fair, just because there are few competitors in the price range. Moto G? No removable battery, no SD card slot. Also fell all Samsung devices through because of Touchwiz, just do not like me.
Updates on 04/20/2014:
Disadvantages such as the RAM (can be disabled by the increase unnecessary Google Apps), the decrease in reception quality (so far had no disconnections) or missing accessories (protectors and Handysocken there already) I deleted!
In the plus points and the battery is now listed! For praise, questions, criticism or suggestions I am grateful :-)
