The handset features Quick Modes - a simple launcher that makes Android look a lot like Windows Phone 8.
The device is average in terms of specs, and the company could have offered a bit more of RAM at least to 1GB and a better display resolution.

And if the device will come to Indian market, it will face a bit more problem with the specs because the domestic manufacturers like Micromax, Karbonn, Intex and others are already offering a better smartphones in terms of specs at the same price point.
