Not sure they'll sell that phone for something around 100$ outside of China. Depending on the price this might be a good deal for dual sim users.

5.0' Screens should NOT be 720p. Ever.

Other than that it seems decent.

If I were gonna go back to Android, I'd import an Xiaomi phone.

LOL, cought that.

Xiaomi isn't that great bro.... Huawei is much better. Specifically the Mate 8. Better than even my Note 5.

I'm going to import one, first phone I've seen that meets all my requirements, only thing I'd like is a 1080P screen but I'll manage as it ticks all the other boxes.
