Customer Review

Manageable and distributed by theme sees my review as follows:

- Price: wonderful, what value for money terms (55 euros, as of March 2015). There was this very few alternatives.

- Hardware: for the price is the range of hardware specifications surprisingly wide - 8MP camera, microSD memory slot, NFC, LTE.
Typical for low-budget? Absolutely not.
To display: there are worse, goes for the price's but perfectly fine. The high resolution and color fidelity image reproduction are not, but you get so very well cope.
For camera: the number of megapixels never stands for quality. However, the camera here is completely sufficient for snapshots. The image quality is mediocre in good lighting, otherwise rather poor.
For SoC (processor, RAM): It never occurred to the stuttering! Surprisingly fleet facilities for such a thing.

- Software: Android 4.2 is out of date, is not the safest (some vulnerabilities were later closed), and an update will never come. Sufficient, albeit a 4.4 version would be desirable.
Read more setting options are somewhat limited at the factory (eg you can not change the order of on-screen buttons, and a few other little things) - can interfere, but not necessarily.
Menu, Homescreen- and widget management were more used to for me and not always user-friendly implemented.
Vodafone branding: is very limited, but the pre-installed anti-theft software from Vodafone can not be uninstalled.
So the above limitations and unfriendliness yoy. the user I venture attributable to the branding - "Vanilla" -4.2 is significantly better.

Not recommended for Android Flagschiffnutzer, not even as a second phone: Conclusion -.
For all other - yes, you can at the price (around 55 euros) really a try!
I had expected something a lot worse, and was the total package (with advantages and disadvantages) pretty convinced.
The mobile phone is really good, just not for spoiled.
