    I own a NUU G5 and it isn’t compatible with fast charging so how come you guys say that it is compatible with 10w charging?

  2. Henri Dupart says:

    I am confused to the selfie camera, is it 16 or 8? In the description above you mention it is 16mp but then in the table it says it’s 8mp. Which is the correct information?

    I am trying to join Hello Mobile and having difficulty with installing their sim card in tray. Please advise.
