Daniel, 20 Dec 2024How do you know it? How do you know it?
Obviously I've ever touched one of them. One UI is very laggy unoptimized for low end phones. They dont even try to make it lighter bruh.

At some point, we were all foolish buyers who let themselves be manipulated by those greedy smartphone sellers. And you are lucky because in Indonesia you can buy the amazing iQOO Z9X with OriginOS for $170.

I think in the past Xperia or Alcatel used to make quality low-end smartphones with Android One. I think my favorite low-end smartphones of 2024 are the iQOO Z9X or the Motorola Moto G Play (2024). And by the way, Google apps are not bloatware, take a look at the Pixels, they literally only have Google apps.

Have you forgotten what your first smartphone was like? Honestly, I'm kind of poor, my Gingerbread smartphone was a cheap piece of junk but it was smooth as butter thanks to Android One. I used it to watch Disney cartoons or listen to music and it made me very happy. Eventually we'll all buy a better smartphone that costs more than $400.

Jesus this chipset, the bezels what!!!!
This company has no direction at all.
So the Pulse lineup with the better T606 SOC keeps getting price reductions and are now super cheap in my country so what an earth are they going to price this at with an ancient SOC and Android GO at least Pulse has a full Android version.
