Its great, but certainly, not the best. albeit close.
Phone owned for less than a month

Might be Cheap, but leaves nothing essential and excess behind, and isnt a cheap phone by any means. for $225 No other phone could go close, its old, but gold, 2 years old, ready for another 2. although design shows no originality whatsoever, its fine though. better than most phone design out there, it might be plastic, but oh boy fantastic, and battery is neither good nor bad, but i really recommend you get a powerbank, oh, never heard of em before? its godsend.

Awesome phone.
Phone owned for less than 3 months

I've had this phone for 3 months, and I haven't had any problems with it so far.

For the money I got it (300 dollars), it is the best phone you can get for the money, in my opinion.

Plus, with MIUI installed on it, it has a bunch of features loaded up on it.

I absolutely recommend getting it.
