No, it's a fake Chinese clone, not worth a cent

No, for 160ish you can get a Moto G on Tesco.co.uk delivered from the UK which is a very decent phone

It's not expired but here's the Tesco link for an unlocked version, Use Code: TDXR-PYRT for £15 off. You'll need to use Parcel Motel to get it here (costs €3.95) as they only ship to the UK.

moto g. that phone would probably get stopped by customs anyways, if it looks like a named brand. you can purchase the moto g from amazon unlocked if you dont want to go the parcel motel route.
