Great phone, solid performer, lots of unique features. Been testing as a daily work phone and very impressed with performance so far. Even after a whole day of random browsing, and send/receive work exchange emails and calls I still got 30-40% battery. Phone does get a little hot but only really noticed this when I did the AnTuTu test and mine scored 16530.

      Great chic design. Solid build. Beautiful UI.
      Bad: camera shooter isn't that great for a 8mp.
      !!! Terrible audio output through headjack. Speakers OK.

                jc, 02 Sep 2013phone extremely heats up since that the phone is very slim ... moreYeah, I just got hands on this phone, in 10 minutes testing the UI without running heavy apps, the phone got above than average warm, it's quite worrying if we use it heavily.
