Ergonomics
Display brightness
Mediocre battery life
Weak speakers
Awkward power-button placement
A bit heavy
The phone has a cheap bulky feel and an unintuitive button layout. Its non-swappable battery delivers only decent life. The price is too high for its above-average capabilities
Too. Much. Bloatware
It isn't the prettiest phone on the block
But it will do
Big and heavy. Dim screen. Heavy Android skin. Too much bloatware
Disgusting amount of bloatware
Camera falls apart outside of ideal conditions
Generic design with bad button layout
Large bezels
Poor choice of materials
And too large of a body. So much plastic! Heavy
Hard to work with one hand. Capacitive buttons are not illuminated. Comes with a ton of redundant apps that are a chore to get rid of

Very affordable, Great performance, Good camera, LTE support, NFC support, Android Lollipop out of the box, Nice, simple ZenUI
