Biggest mistake of my life!

11 Sep 2016 By Vikash Choudhary On flipkart.com

Very bad product, very big issue of hang. Really disappointed.

Good Product

08 Jun 2016 By Parag Bhattacharya On flipkart.com

The product is good. Delivery was timely. Good buy. The screen size is very big so you'll take time to get accustomed to it. Processor is fast. The fingerprint sensor works fine.
