  1. Très bon téléphone. Mais je n’arrive pas à ouvrir mon répertoire téléphonique. J’ai réinitialisé a deux reprises en vain. Aussi je ne vois pas le paramètre d’enregistrement des appels. Merci.

  2. Where is the call record of this phone as you claim. I bought this phone and found that no call record function. Same with mtn smart t phone. Why misleading people ?

    1. We can’t guarantee 100% accuracy for the reviews and specifications on this page!

      Hi…
      First, the above information is very important
      Secondly, the Call Record in the specs above simply refers to call log, not ability to record phone conversations
      …Thanks

      1. Ok. Are you d one updating the page?. Sorry If u then u shu update carefully. Above d page said it does not have gps. Dat is wrong. It has gps. It also said it dont have wifi when it has. This can mislead people.
        thanks

  3. So I bought this phone expecting basic functionality. Yes it has whatsapp, YouTube etc. It even has an app store. Well I don’t care. To me this phone is useless because 1. It does not have call conversation recording, 2. You can’t even edit a number in the call log before calling just incase u dialed a wrong person, 3. You can’t call a number you received sms from just like other phones u allows you call by taping the call button. 4. This phone lags a lot, 5. It does not hv blacklist function, 6. It has very limited items on the call option button. And I could go on and list more. I want to give out this trash phone. Even typing and dialing number war. Waste of money.

    1. Lol….. yes o, you got it. It lags bcus of d small amount of RAM storage. But u can d wifi with your computer.
      But can you give it to me

    2. Typing with the keyboard is actually war. I even thought it had a factory problem. So this is general.
      Definitely, there would be lags. Remember the cost of the phone. Inability to type with convenience crashes my love for the phone.
      I
