Of course, there are also some negative aspects to this smartphone, for example, although it is something that will depend on user preferences, your customization layer is not the best rated in the Android landscape.

As in the device Huawei, it is possible that the terminal signed by Lenovo is forgotten because of the chosen software, because since the company failed to incorporate CyanogenOS on their devices , the layer of customization ZUI has been present at these terminals , an interface clearly oriented to the Asian market.

This terminal, which was the first to be presented in between all of this comparison, it is certainly a great choice for those wanting a compact, lightweight, and with unmatched power terminal.
