After a short search I found the THL T100s, which appealed to me immediately. The only complaint for me was the plastic case, but was as me offered me the device to send the price of G5S, I have not thought long.
4 days later, I had it. Already in hand
For import: I am from Austria, that here are importing 20% import VAT. remove what was also due at me.
For a price of just under 200 were then added by even 45 + 20 shipping.
I think about the technical things I do not write a lot, the T100s keeps its promises.
Reception is good, GPS and NFC works great (contrary to many reports).
The battery should survive the day, more accurate but will only become clear when I stop with the shenanigans and he has a few loads behind ;-)
Of particular note are definitely the display and a China-Phone above-average cameras.
For processing we can only say great. In my view, in line with Sony and Samsung (I had both already). My friends were very surprised that it is a "China Mobile" ...
What could possibly interfere:
- Still no update to 4.4 KitKat (UPDATE!)
- Notification LED (there guides on the web) only indirectly (UPDATE!)
- Angular design, up and down a bit too spicy
- The smartphone is its 5 "rather long
(-> Nagging at a high level)
Still looking for alternatives: I could (if available) the Jiayu G5S preferred and otherwise resorted to Huawei P6.
Should not change anything, I will complete my review of course ;-)
PS: The package also 2 NFC tags were with me (with whom I have a lot of fun) and 2 cover (one for the back and one with screen protector) and a screen protector. This is the default when THL?
UPDATE 22/11/14:
After about 1 week of normal use is a part of the display has failed (artifacts, etc.).
Well, I thought to myself - material errors. Unfortunately, the repair was rejected on warranty but the manufacturer (without notice) and I had to reluctantly pay the 75 repair costs for a new display in order to get my power back after 3 months. (It should be noted that the repair part of the manufacturer would have gone very quickly, I would not have insisted on warranty.)
For me it was so that the last purchase CECT shop, after all I have already bought 4 units there and me some support expected when it comes to problems time.
Dear European Order (if available or Amazon for example at tudualsim.com in Spain) and can also be made to guarantee!
The device itself, I am still very satisfied!
The following things have been improved since then:
- Android 4.4.2 by the manufacturer
- This very long battery life of about 2 days
- Notification LED works now
- Operating system absolutely stable and much resource-efficient (especially RAM)
UPDATE 02/28/15:
Basically a super smartphone, however occurred since today again artifacts - without any external assistance!
This means that the display has again adopted (Monday device?). Since I am not even willing to pay 75, I'm going to look for me by another device.
