You should not expect to play hd games or movies as it has 1 Gh single core processor . according to me any device can last for as many years as you wish and use it like a human . I had even dropped my phone from 2 storey balcony but only the bezel paint stripped off revealing the white plastic frame.all you need is care and love and everything will last long be it your phone wife car and everything else . thinking of using it till 2022. lets see.
