    Not sure about Optus, but eBay was $1.30 and it's been fine on boost. Running gta san Andreas from an sd card

      How well does it run a game like GTA? Runs with max everything or needs turning detail down to get acceptable framerates? How good is the vivid screen?

        I just had a go with high detail car reflection and heavy traffic - ended up not coping well. But playing on 4.5in,low res is fine. Screen is nice and bright, pretty decent in Sunshine. I was pleasantly surprised what $50 can get you, compared to the boost icon Nero I got last year for $59.

  I bought this phone and I found battery had not enough capacity.
  Only 27 hours for standby ( no call no sms)
  I think more less if I use any APP.

  This is the point of this cheap price.

    That's weird. The only things I can think of that are causing this, are your background processes and a faulty battery.

    Similar phones in this low-end range only have an extra 200-400 mAh and that lasts for days without recharging its battery. e.g. Buzz and Y550 and others.

    You can also try and re-calibrate the battery by running it down to 5% and then charging it all the way back up.

  I checked battery usage.
  OS usage is 10% which is normal,call standby is 2%.
  But Google play services is 32% and my optus is 4%.
  I did not install anything yet.
  I think these APP are the problem.
  I will refresh the battery anyway.

  Thanks ponyhearts

  Better than ZTE Fit?

    Ronnnie on 24/01/2016 - 13:19

    Maybe better camera and screen?. Better interms of newer version of Android, and band support. Downgrade interms of performance.

  valpa on 23/01/2016 - 21:44

  what about the RAM? what about the ROM? The most two important spec

    McFly on 24/01/2016 - 11:20

    And Android version.

  wei13 on 25/01/2016 - 10:15

  Will this be fully compatible with Telstra network if I unlock it?
  Is there much performance difference going from dual-core to quad-core? (same 1gb RAM)
