Conclusions: easy to use poor quiality screen too much large the screen not all app can run

Conclusions: Pro : Very good price, full featured (including GPS), good quality screen. Good battery life, with wifi always on and otherwise light use battery life is a little over 3 days, with intensive use battery life is still almost 2 days. Pre-rooted Android OS, shows a popup to confirm root access. Cons : Comes with a few pre-installed apps, one of which is a flashlight app. Don't run this, once you do it starts downloading other apps. This is malware, a pay-per-download scam. Fortunately you can delete this app (it is one of two apps you can delete, this one and the Blackberry Messenger) after which it does not bother you any more. Apart from that, just a few minor issues : there is an annoyingly loud music clip on bootup or shutdown, and the root access popup is in Chinese even if you select English as interface language. Only one battery included. Not really a "con", but many DX phones are shipped with two batteries.

Conclusions: It has good looks and the phone overall is quite good. The main problem is that it keeps downloading unwanted software, displays unsolicited ads, changes the web address when you want to use browser, and all this malware it has installed in the core makes it incredible slow to use. And that
