Okay, but seen betterThis phone comes in stylish look. but the company does not provide any software or data cord. Thus making us handicap. I am using it from last month, every thing is good but some thimes it does not shows memory card. so I have to open it and again rearrange it. Some times it does not show sim card same thing I have to do it. Before that I am having moto SLVR L9 and I was fine with it.
