Fantastic phone for the price, but confirm the cell bands before you buy.
Conclusions: Pros: Quality build, fantastic screen, snappy performance, reasonable battery life, comes with a case, notifications work great.... Yes this phone does have notifications (for missed calls or texts, etc) despite what support says. Cons: When trying to use it as a speaker phone the mic doesn't work well, but otherwise the mic works fine. Using gestures was real hit and miss, not sure if it's me or the phone though. **NOTE** Be aware that this phone is made for the European and Asian (and possibly the Indian) markets and does not support the cell bands that are most popular in North America. That doesn't mean you won't find a carrier but you're going to be pretty much limited to 2G.
