I love "not up to 4.1", even the gsmarena team was making fun of Motorola for not updating their phones at the time, meanwhile all their competitors had ICS and Jellybean out. this phone can actually run up to 7.1.2 with custom roms though!

I am very sure I watch an unboxing video but I really liked this phone. I like to use built-in keyboards on these guys.
