User Experience
I own this phone since 2014 October. 4.2.1 jelly bean out of the box. I was able to update it to Kitkat in December. I am very satisfied with its performance i get 1 full day on 18 hours of wifi, 5 hrs of calls and still 50% battery for next day. Little heating problem but compared to others its a monster in battery.
Maybe now it is outdated with 1gb ram and front camera with 1mp compared to newly released phone like Alcatel Flash Plus with superb hardware. Nevertheless there are many customization and features like double tap to lock, volume button to light the screen, Power saving modes etc, but until now there are no news update if they will release an update from Kitkat to Lollipop. I bought my Lenovo P780 on their official kiosk in SM Calamba in the price of Php 10,999 and still I can say it is performing well up to date.
Actually I chose this because of battery capacity compared to other phone on that kiosk with high camera pixels but short on battery mAh. If you are to buy and choose between battery or camera specs?
