yeah, on top of the scratches the guy didnt know how to unlink his flyme account with the phone apparently which i could potentially do if i had his password but......idk. i'm also noticing stuff about the flyme OS that just bothers me and i think i'd prefer normal android.
i noticed you edited out the part about the carrier... yes it works, although i don't get 4g. i'm ok with that tho i only get 1gb a month so can't go through it too fast!
meanwhile i'm gonna look up the new stuff with kitkat...... i can't really imagine having a problem with a 1.7ghz krait, i'm coming from a 800mhz arm dual core.
oh yeah and the front facing camera on the meizu is abysmal, worse than my old VGA one.
i mean i do kinda want features like OTG and MHL honestly but i think the feel and quality of the phone is more important really. thanks for the help!
