    Few threads on here about branded Chinese phones, I personally had a Lenovo A820 and got it for under 160, loved it.

    Strange its only 4.7'' .. Also alot of the mtk6589 phones have a 12mpx back and 5mpx front camera. Let us know how you get on!

    Is it likely to get seized by customs considering its coming from China?
