When S650 AP set first surface at lelong, the asking price was somewhere around rm750. But once the original set available, the AP price was quickly went down.

I bought S660 ori set from DirectD. RM649 + 15(Screen Protector).
1) 3000mAh Battery was excellent 2) Disable lenovo app such as secureit to avoid problem not getting notification for whatsapp etc. 3) One problem: Phone occasionally turns on by itself from sleep (Not solve yet). I found out this happen to many other S660 owners too. This post has been edited by cwkhang: May 20 2014, 09:23 AM |

Bought this phone over a week ago. So far so good. Battery life is great. Its just the proximity sensor not very responsive, but not that frequent. The ui is smooth enough
Bought this as 2nd phone, already have z1, so my expectation not really high This post has been edited by MADReaLJL: May 20 2014, 11:26 AM |

AP prices seems to be really cheap, so if i go with AP set, what's the firmware situation like? can update to KitKat? (sorry la asking all noobs questions. first time want to buy Lenovo phone, hehe) |
