Is worth all 129 Euro

For this price, the sly-Fon is certainly a bargain. Convincing is the ability to operate two SIM cards simultaneously, although you can make calls with only one of them at the same time - conferences with yourself are unfortunately not (yet) possible.

The less important VIPs among us expected the relatively low battery life rather a headache - a maximum of one and a half days in standby mode without Bluetooth, GPS, Internet or wireless connection tear not necessarily indicate a storm of excitement. The high energy consumption could throttle sure strong, left when the many hand-picked by Sponsor Google background processes that actually nobody really needs off together in a clear menu and remove ...

The touch-sensitive screen is purely capacitively coupled - operation with a pick or pin is not possible therefore. The phone usually responds in a timely manner to inputs on some processor-intensive tasks speed breaks heavily and the display of a confirmation checkmark then takes so long that you can automatically repeatedly tap on the control element, because it supposedly does not respond, and so that an even longer lasting way Hergeschalte triggers. Apparently, the processor is a bit too slow in order to ensure an acceptable response to all user inputs.

Who frees the traffic for the first SIM card, should book this an unlimited flat rate because the non-removable, and thus against the will of the client running background processes (endearingly called "applications") calls hardworking home to our destitute advertisers with location and movement data of potential customers supply. Particularly striking is after just two days of operation, the balance of the displayed by the telephone traffic (108 KB) with reality (41,900 KB): A mere 38,796 percent come next - or rather the customer deliberately concealed to the starving wireless providers slightly below the the Starving quite scrawny become arms to grab?

The front camera is for the built-in "released by facial recognition" conditionally, for other things, such as video telephony, less or not at all suitable. The rear 5 megapixel camera has two functions: When you turn on she works as a "camera", after (every time again to be executed!) Switching as a "movie camera". The images are acceptable if one grants the appearance sufficient time for proper adjustment of the lens set. The same applies to the movie camera, which is limited to a resolution of 640 * 480, although with 5 MP technically well 1280 * 720 (720p) and even 1920 * 1080 (1080p) would be possible. However, this restriction has its foundation - the films produced are only "hot" when the filmed object is not (or only minimally) moves. Faster movement causes blurred, "blurred" movies that leave a very unpleasant impression. The quality drops also at too high or too low object illumination. All these phenomena are not the way due to an inferior appearance but that the processor the resulting data can not adequately process in real time - hence the restriction to 20 years ago groundbreaking resolution of 640 * 480, which does not by today's standards more is entirely on the amount of time.

Overall, one can of a 129-euro phone of course not expect it also a perfect camera, a super-fast Internet modem and a comprehensive multimedia center at the same time, replacing the televisions, hi-fi system, the (video) camera and a room lighting system , Who for 129 euros a lamp with telephone function expects that making coffee at the same time, can make ice and clearing snow in the winter, which was handy this: do not buy (for good English phone). Who would mainly call, the device but occasionally for surfing the net or to use as a navigation device intends that lets you optionally also can make reasonably meaningful photos, is well served with this phone, if he / she reasonably realistic demands on a 129 Euro expensive device is.
