One of the worst smart phone I have ever come across. Battery got drain within minutes. Phone trip off at will even when battery is above 50 percent charge.
Purchase within 3 months and never serve a good purpose.
Where can I get the battery because I can’t find it in the market. Barely one year and the phone is misbehaving
