-  * Can **record phone calls**. Enable the feature from //Settings//=> //Auxiliary function// => //Call recording//.

   * Blue/red **LED** for notifications and charging.
   * The **FM Radio is non functional** because there is no 3.5 mm socket and it is not possible to connect the earphones cable.
-  * **Aggressive power saving** kills background apps. Widgets in several apps have trouble initializing themself after reboot; may stop working or may not update contents. Exposed settings (permissions, //pause app// if unused, //unrestricted// battery, //battery manager//. etc.) are not sufficient to overcome the problem. Internet syncs and notifications of less-known apps are lagging or stopped.
