    The ROM is actually fluid smooth, the phone never felt better. However, there’s the APN bug which doesn’t let you save APNs, which broke the deal for me.

    Not really, when you compare the prices with the Samsung Galaxy S4 & HTC One.

        Still,they are head and shoulders above even the best Shenzen manufacturer like Newsmy,with support near or better than iPhone. Better than LG and HTC for sure.
        Andi,will you be getting more information on Ulike 2S?I think it’s great for a 5.5in,very compact.

      It’s almost $300 cheaper than XZ here which made it a lot more better deal.
