Tipo is an good phone. But it has its own problems too. I purchased it last month. Yesterday I encountered an issue, some service "aproc" (Not sure) stopped. I lost all my contacts. Totally gone. And I'm not able to restore the contacts from sim card also.

I have to take this to a service center and yet to take a look at the problem. Had almost 500 contacts. Now, totally gone :(

I'm a anime fan and always use my phone in watching anime online. My current phone is only capable on streaming youtube. So I'm wondering if this phone can play videos on other sites especially anime.

I'm from the Philippines, specifically in Cebu. I just saw it in a cell shop. It's priced at 6,990 pesos. The only thing I did not like is the thickness. But it's design is kinda good. They should have placed a light sensor and increase the price a little. By the way, any one from the Phil here who own one? Please tell me about the issues (if any). I'm planning on buying one. I'm on a tight budget and I'm looking for a phone with good touch and display. Since I always use my phone in youtube and fb (via wifi so network dont matter). So please tell me more about this Phone. Salamat :)

All chinese companies are required to give their government any info any time they want it, any attempts to restrict info to their government is rewarded with a death penalty.

Im using this phone for 1 month 10 days and its good as new. Never encountered major problems regarding its touch. Its working fine about 99%. 1% for minor double tap on apps to launch (only happens 3-4 times the entire day, use nova launcher problem solved).

I got 240-250mb max usable ram thanks to my new task killer

I think it's not a good phone. Its not have battery back up. Sound is good. Touch is not so sensitive. I think its will curse.
