Good phone, up until the charging port wears out prematurely. I've had it about a year and it stopped charging entirely. Difficult enough to open the phone and solder on a new charging board/port. Good enough for short-term ownership.

I had same issue, but came across an article addressing this issue. You can download the MTK engineering app for Android and tweak the microphone settings and you shall be heard once more.
