                      Bought it 2 months back& m using it in extreme site conditions.
                      This is awesome mobile with good specifications(quad core+ 2GB RAM).
                      Camera outstanding.
                      Heats up easily. Gaming is appreciable.
                      Size is apt.
                      Totally this is a monster
