I bought this phone for my mom. It is her first smartphone and she did not even know how to operate a touchscreen phone earlier. The best thing about windows phone is that even a new owner can get used to it in no time.
My son, though just 7, is quite well versed with smartphones and loves to play games. He has installed several racing games and one or two games that require high-end graphics. What I was pleasantly surprised was how this phone plays all those games. There is no lag whatsoever. the screen in itself if quite decent, and way better than xaomi or Micromax phones.
The camera is another big plus. Though it is just 5MP it takes better pictures than MotoG ( 2nd gen) . 1 MP secondary camera is also bright and clear enough for video calls and you would not notice any graining and drop in quality during video calls.
The battery life is good. Though my mom is not a heavy user at all, but with her mild and my sons gaming usage, it lasts about 1.5 - 2 days comfortably.
Last but not the least: build quality is amazing for an entry level phone. The plastic is pretty decent and it does not feel cheap.
Overall a simple basic design, but an effective one.
