Had one till yesterday when the screen unfortunately cracked. Not the first, not the last in the world of mobile phones.
Phone is OK for the common user and in my opinion the greatest fail is the camera. Absolutely terrible! Didn't expect such from a 5mp device.
Today went to service and asked for the price of repair. Surprise! More than 100€ (500PLN) to make it worth again and availability of parts is scarce moreover.
Maybe in France, where this mobile comes from, 100 something € is reasonable for a touch screen which by the way comes together with the electronic module... It's not sold separately or as cheap as for instance Nokia Lumia's.
So all round the money for value is OK but if something goes wrong such as cracked screen or water/humidity ingress you better have some replacement around or prepare your wallet.
After this I'm done with Alcatel's. Will be looking for a more popular mobile phone company with more friendly cost for spare parts and repairs.

chedsabahmalaysia, 19 Mar 2014Hi to all Idol X owners. Mind giving your latest opinions o... moreHi ched, I too bought the phone in october last year in sabah, malaysia. after eagerly waiting for it, i grabbed it the day it was launched at a retailer's shop.
Must say, used it for 5 months and no regrets so far..
worth every penny.. battery is a concern, but the beautiful screen and its good feel in hand overpowers this drawback. though i need to charge it regularly(twice a day sometimes) but the overall experience is awesome.
We'd the same concerns after watching the review video. I guess after the update to 01002, its answered.
The update is indeed a good one. But it dint matter to me for the app drawer n all so much..since i'm using go launcher app. There's plenty of RAM available for running all kinda apps.
The update added options for the cam..but i liked the tap shoot feature which is now replaced by a longer press now.
I hope, we get a better experience with the kitkat update which some users have shared, is bound to happen sooner or later.
