Sorry Americans, 31 Jul 2013The phone will become useless in your country, coz it can o... moreWhy won't it?

According to the spec on gsmarena 3G operates on HSDPA 1900/2100? It should work in any country that has a carrier operating HSDPA on the 1900 or 2100 3G band.

          And there it is. This is the reason why Apple will never dominate the Chinese market. You can have a decent size, quad core android 4.2 phone like this for $99 or a smaller i5 for about $600 which does more or less exactly the same. Even Apple's likely cut price iphone is not going to be able to compete with the likes of this on specs or price.

              The phone will become useless in your country, coz it can only use 2G outside China.

                I was speaking to myself when i saw the specs "cortex a7", and tought... another Piece of S... that should never been built.
                But then i saw the price, 99€ =OOOOO

                for that price is the best Smartphone in the world in it's category.

                If it ever arrives at european markets, i will buy four pieces in the very second it is released =D

                          this is funny, there are lots of chinese branded phones with the same or even better specs out there months ago and only Xiaomi gets the limelight..not to mention this is already a step behind other brands in terms of hardware. LoL

                                  Is this phone water proof?
                                  As in would I leave it out in the rain without loosing the recipe?
                                  Also I like taking pics whilst on the toilet, what would happen if I dropped it down? Would it survive?
                                  I wouldn't be able to take it. Its taken so long to bake it....
