Battery keeps going and going and going...
Another gamble on high spec cheap Android phone for me. I bought this phone in the morning and it came later in the evening which was very impressive from Amazon. I have tried a few dual Sim smartphones now and this was another for me to test out.The phone came with a charger (micro usb cable) which bizarrely failed to charge the phone, this was no issue to me as I have loads of spares, which all worked well, but may annoy others. The screen protector came fitted and there also a spare which was nice. You can add your two micro SIMs or an SD card in one of the slots for extra storage. It's a shame you can't have two dedicated micro USB slots and an SD card slot like other dual SIM phones but oh well, it has 32GB internal storage anyway. I put my SIMs in and set it all up, 100% battery from the off and all simple enough.. The phone's screen resolution is nothing special, but neither is it terrible. The phone is quick enough, Android 7 runs pretty smoothly on it. Has occasionally frozen and needed me to press the power button to awaken it. It has handled all my apps, the phone has 3GB of RAM and a 1.3Ghz Quad core processor, which seemed to handle multiple tasks with relative ease. The rear 13MP camera seems ok, but nothing special, the 13MP selfie camera is much better, both struggle in the dark. The fingerprint scanner works perfectly and was a nice inclusion. In terms of the aesthetics; I I like the look better than other android phones. Bizarrely I can't have different wallpaper to my lock screen which is odd glitch. Also the stock gallery app doesn't work at all. These are minor issues which could be fixed with an update. Without question the greatest strength of this phone is the battery. It is HUGE. You could easily get away without charging it for several days with minimal use. Also when I have charged it, it has charged very quickly. It's a shame the battery isn't removable but it's truly a force to be reckoned with. For this reason alone I think the phone will make a lot of customers happy, but overall it is a very good phone. For below £100 I paid I think it's tremendous value for money. I would buy a HOMTOM again and eagerly await the next thing they have to offer.

Both of them are very happy with this phone worth for money
I bought for my sister after I bought for my kid. Both of them are very happy with this phone worth for money. Android 7 - it is extremely fast to download apps and run them -not as heavy as i thought. It fits in your hand nicely resolution of screen is what it is and Android 7 is hard to visually differentiate from Android 6. The lack of the phone package is the headset. There are only cable, charger, thin screen film, mobile phone, battery, manual book. For the rear camera is less satisfactory, the results are not focused. Front camera is good. But for that price, not bad. Because the android is version 7.0, and the battery is 5500mAh. This phone for the price just cannot be faulted.

Dead brick (sometimes)
Lasted two months and then shut down by itself. Never turned back on. Battery is not removable. Tried various button presses to reboot it but no luck. The phone is now a paperweight. It was good when it actually worked, long battery life. But ultimately it's a complete waste of money.EDIT: phone came back to life after an hour (literally, I didn't even touch it). Definitely a weird phone, but not dead yet it seems, so I had to update my 'review'.EDIT 2: died again... be warned.

Bang for your buck!
Very good battery life and honestly the build quality is not shabby, however I had to upgrade when I dropped a 25kg weight on it at the gym, it was decent value for money and honestly it didn’t do bad, just wish it was a little bit faster and had a better selfie camera for your Snapchat and Instagram needs! Other than that it was fine, the case it came with was awful, not like it could protect what ended its days anyway however I enjoyed using it.
