An opinion of who does not have the phone, but already it read in such a way on it, that it finds that knows almost everything: In summary, good technology, good box, some recesses and noises because of the sliding one, and one very, very limited battery. Now the decision is yours, after to weigh what for you it is most important.

To get rid of the flashing blue light go into settings and turn off sleep mode. I if use sleep mode it used more power than without because im constantly activating the screen just to see if iv missed a call or txt, where as with it turned off I can see if Iv missed anything from the time/date screen saver.

Cant do anything about the small thumbnails other than instal a third party app, none of which have been created yet for 9.1 to the best of my knowledge.

Battery is fine for me, compares close to my 6680 if I only use the same features that that has, ie no wi-fi. I get a full day with over average use inclusing wi-fi.

To view photos/videos in portrait not landscape, go into the gallery but instead of going to the photo/video section scroll up once and select to view all files, any photos/videos opened this way will be in portrait mode by default.

reccommend to keep sleep mode on, but just plug in charger to stop flashing blue light, or turn phone over 😊
