after owning about 2-3 months ,of Black Pearl 2. mine is latest badge with v17 firmware.
the good is the app / game support
smooth and fast gaming experience due to dual core (compare to my a13 tablet , the tablet feel much slower)
the capasitive screen is 5 points , compare to sony phone like tipo etc u will only get 2-3 point touch.
camera is ok , no complain , flash works ok , but is less bright compare to nokia c6-00.
front camera work well too.
what i most dissapointed is the gps function.
the wifi search location (eg from google is works)
the gps is totally unusable,
if i put gps test or satellite test , after 10+minute i will get 1 poor satellite signal only.
the gps is so poor that it wont work , maybe this is happening to all mtk6577 phone.
china gps probably will work on its county only.
i assume this phone is from zte china , the outlook is redesigned for ninetology.
i bought this phone because rm299 include skmm rebate.
i already have a sensonic n400 gps , it works so well that every turn guided correctly , accurately .
My next phone is not gonna be local or any china phone.
the phone is works well everything except GPS.
dont trust any one say it works , i tested root with custom gps file , sometime it work got few satellite signal most of time it wont even get 1 signal .......
i have to wait so long to get lock. almost impossible.
some malay guy at forum tell me my gps chip fail etc ,they so defensive of this/their phone, i actually bought 2 unit of it , one for my family member one for myself , both tested gps not working .
if using google map location by wifi is ok , because not using any gps.
next time i buy samsung or sony phone.
UPDATE : I have made a video and posted on YOUTUBE ,
