    Hi there I'm pretty much a fan of these China phones off ebay, had a couple of them and for the price they have been really good but I wonder if I can find my ideal phone with the features I want for the price I want to pay?

    I want:

    • 5" IPS Screen
    • Notification LED at top of phone in full colours, not just red, green or Blue LED
    • Ideally 1gb RAM (most probably expecting too much, most have 512mb)
    • At least Dual core (quad core even better)
    • 3G
    • Not too worried about ambient light sensor
    • A decent 5 megapixel camera on the back, good (not Grainy) in low light with LED Flash (even better a Xenon flash and a separate LED) a Macro setting and at least 1megapixel front facing camera.
    • decent stereo speakers built in (i know im asking for too much!)
    • priced around 80euro :eek:
    The present Android phone I have (which I bought for 80euro off ebay) has:

    • White SGS4 lookalikey
    • 5" IPS screen
    • No Notification LED whatsoever
    • 512MB RAM (keeps running out of space for apps even though I g-parted the SD card and transferred stuff over onto the SD card)
    • Dual Core MTK
    • 3G (on one sim slot)
    • Ambient light sensor
    • a 5megapixel camera at back, Grainy in low light, no macro mode (close ups are blurry) mediocre 1 LED flash, VGA front facing camera.
    • only 1, not very loud tinny speaker at back.
    I am figuring there is a china phone out there with the spec's I want (however not at 80euro I doubt lol) ... or maybe theres not. although I havent seen yet a china phone with stereo speakers on a 5" screen and not seen one with 1GB ram and definately not one with xenon flash (which would be cool)
