              I had this phone for less than $50. Everything is currently quite good, the performance is temporary, fast heat, the battery drops relatively long. After installing LineageOS it was much smoother, better than Miui.

                  I used this for 1 straight year, it's laggy and the battery performance is bad.

                      it's a good device and also lasts 3 years of wearing it. with devs still caring about this device, it would be nice to have one.

                          for all of you who still had or use this phone, I'd recommend to flash a new custom rom to AOSP Extended, then add an additional 16 or 32gb of sd card to formar it as internal storage. Works like a charm.

                                        Using since 2016. Was lagging so I installed AOSP based rom on it and some mods now it's smooth. But still poor storage r/w performance due to usage and the main visible problem is the display corners became washed out and getting worse over time. Memory cards don't work anymore. Oh and most annoying problem is the wifi system has degraded so much that it slows down and becomes unusable...needs reboot every now and then Well it served me well enough.
