it certainly isn't the snappiest phone but for the price (below 100$/120€) and the time (2013) it's certainly a capable little machine! It doesn't seem to like my SD card so I can't try stuff that needs media storage like the camera or the music player, it does have a working FM radio though! dunno if I can still get apps

it's very much a web-oriented OS, there's these folders on the home screen that display a bunch of icons that may or may not exist, games for example doesn't contain anything I can access but attempts to load in apps from the web

alright, it can't format its own SD card but giving it a FAT card works. Gonna have to try the camera with natural light, the music player is nice but it obviously sounds like ass from the internal speaker… well at least they put in a speaker that's separate from the earpiece speaker, and I'm sure it'll be fine with headphones

In 2013 I would've swapped my Nokia 303 for this phone in a heartbeat. Wish I had lol, it was cheap at the time. I recall seeing both FFOS and Ubuntu Touch in the local electronics store at one time, those demo devices didn't stick around long
I ended up upgrading to a used iPhone 5 in 2015, got a good deal on it from a friend
