What’s Your Opinion?
Though the company claims that it offers dual-SIM 4G connectivity, only one SIM supports 4G VoLTE and the other 2G network. LFY branded phones come up with 2 years warranty including 1 year extended warranty benefit from LYFCARE. Placed in the budget smartphone category, the handset will receive stiff competition from Xiaomi Redmi 3S and Coolpad Note 3 Lite that costs under 7K.
