Bush Eluma 5" phone won't play Netflix films, either in the app or the browser. Apparently the Microsoft Edge browser doesn't support Silverlight. The fix on the Microsoft site won't work on mobile devices. I've tried other browsers but no joy. I bought a 5" phone cos my tablet broke and this was to serve a dual purpose, so no Netflix is a deal breaker for me. In other respects the phone is fine for the price. But it's going back. Argos/Bush/Microsoft, get your act together

AnonD-387077, 20 Jan 2016ARCHOS 50e Helium not CesiumYes it is Cesium. There are Two Cesiums, a small wp 8.1 called 40 and the new 50 . Helium is for the Android range, Cesium is used for WP devices.

Anonymous, 19 Jan 2016British phone. Lol. This sound like a bad joke. No mention ... moreI draw your attention to the fact that it was actually a British person - Alexander Graham Bell - who invented the telephone in the first place. So please don't mock us!
Agreed though, Bush are not the first people I would think of when thinking of mobile phones. They are more in to the television and radio area and are somewhat basic at that. Don't think this will be the best of devices.

The top skills of mobile developers include flexibility, speed and keen understanding of the user-experience. The job of the mobile developer demands you to work quickly and respond to many changes. These changes may include hardware, software updates, patches and changes in the design. Hire mobile developers with solid work experience.

Bush handset vs Lumia 640 Dual sim (NonXL version):
5MP selfie cam compared to 1MP
16GB phone storage and MicroSD compared to 8GB phone storage and MicroSD
Extra phone shell cover in white, plus clear phone cover and screenprotector
Slightly smaller battery
Slightly heavier
£80 sim free vs approx cheapest 640 Dual Sim (new) £125/130 in the UK
Similarities:
Up to 4G
About same size dimensions
So for the price this is a decent spec and priced handset, which should run Window 10 Mobile perfectly fine.
P.S - Windows store has plenty of apps - like all mobile platforms it boils down to the ones that are important and vital to you in your daily usage.

Windows phones are always very cheap in hardware department. This makes them even less in demand. Add to this the scarcity of apps in Windows.

Such a lousy comment. And Bush is a British company but as with everything else these days sold through China & places like Argos. Bush have made radios since before war time,they are British

In fact this is the same Phone as the French brand Archos. In Europe it is sold as Archos Cesium 50. The chipset is the Qualcomm MSM8909, Quad-core @1.1 GHz with an Adreno 304 gpu. No Mediatek chipset thus although Mediatek has good processors as well and will soon be number one at the rate they are going. When you look at the extremely crappy mtk 415Mhz chipsets the used to put in the "real fake iPhone" that China used to produce back in 2008-9...

British phone. Lol. This sound like a bad joke. No mention of chipset. Means it is definitely low grade MTK or Spectrum.

Buy a trump(et) instead. No, just kidding. Motorola Barack would sound like their phonename and LG Michelle for women.

I had a Bush TV once and a Mikomi before it (both sister brands), the quality of both was abysmal. Suffice it to say that I wouldn't buy anything with either badge on it again and I'd highly recommend others stay away too.

It most probably has 1GB of RAM. Period :)
Pretty descent price for what it offers, although the Motorola Moto G or E is also considerable for that price or by adding a little to it.
