                    This phone's video recording SUCKS, when you choose HIGH (720p) or FINE (1080p) profile it basically just UP-SCALING what you see on the screen (960x540) and fit into 1280x720/1920x1080 video resolution.

                    Which you will see "pixelised" effect on recorded HD video, it's not TRUE 720p/1080p, just UP-Scale something small into HD.

                        I am in Malaysia.
                        Just bought this phone 2 days ago.
                        What I like:
                        Quad core.Fast with Antutu score of 16K+!
                        Nice huge screen. Just great to read mails and some surfing.Easy on the eyes for sure.
                        Google Play is available unlike some China versions ;)

                        What I don't really like but ok:
                        Screen resolution not that HD, but good on the eyes.
                        Camera/pictures are just a okay. I am not a heavy camera user.Daylight sceneries are really acceptable. Indoors with flash.. don't bother too much. I have a better real camera for that!
                        No compass, no orientation sensor, no gyroscope,no pressure sensor. If you can live without these, you're ok.

                        I am not that comfortable with only 2GB memory onboard but I am not a heavy Google Play applications downloader. Yup, you can't app2sd applications to SDcard. For the time being I am ok with it.
                        I only use Facebook, email(K9 mail), tweetcaster, whatsapp,greader and boat browser. Out of 2.11GB, I am left now with 1.40GB. Kinda okay for now.

                        The other model that I was evaluating was the S820. Better features and spec but I picked A850 for its larger screen.

                        So far I am pleased. My previous phone was a Sony Xperia Arc S.

                                My A850 is original international version Lenovo warranty with Google Store built-in bought in Malaysia. And I have rooted it.

                                The looks is so Samsung Note 2.

                                Pros (Hardware):
                                - Powerful 28nm quad-core processor MT6582"M" with underclocked GPU, M stands for MINIMUM I guess?
                                - Antutu score 17066!
                                - Can record upto 1080p video (slightly frame drops)
                                - Can decode 2k video smooth using MX "software" decoder
                                - 5.5" large screen, view angle OK, colour OK unlike Samsung's over saturated OLED.
                                - Total RAM is 1.25GB, available RAM for user is x/973MB.
                                - Cost only RM639 (~200USD)

                                Cons:
                                - Disgusting camera, too much noise, over "DE-noising" results detail lost, very poor in low light environment, Huawei Y300 is FAR MORE BETTER (my previous phone).
                                - No button light, same like Lumia 520.
                                - Only RED notification light.

                                I buy this phone for its processor and huge screen, nothing more. I dislike the camera because they produce noisy, over de-noise, detail lost, darker and reddish image.

                                I do not need full HD on my screen since I'm not gonna stick my face on the phone to looks for its pixels. As long as I can "See", that is fine.

                                So far ok lah...China AP stock cost only RM479 without Google apps. But you can root it and install them yourself.

                                ~ VERY CHEAP with high spec phone ~~~

                                        I can see that lots of people are facing problems with preinstalled rom. In the Chinese rom there is no google paly and other G-apps. You will find lots of chinese apps also. But you can easily find lots of rom with multi language supported. For this you have to know how to install the rom. So my suggestion is:

                                        Before buying this phone tell your seller to install the rom with G-apps supported or you can install it yourself.. Need more help mail me : a.aftub@gmail.com
