I didn't even try this phone. When it arrived, it came in an already opened box, so might be a return. I had asked their chat bot about US versus International version which version if it should mainly work in US (Tello), Germany (D1 and D2), and China (China mobile) and it recommended the International Version. So this review is for the International version, not the US market version.

However this is not in fact an international Version, it is a version labeled restricted for sale in mainland China only! I used to have such a phone - it knows when it is in mainland and blocks anything google including play store. Whether or not there is a backdoor to the CCP I can't know for sure. Because we knew that phones made for the mainland market have restrictions by Chinese law, when we lived in China, we flew to Hong Kong to get an "International" Version of the phone we wanted, rather than the one marketed for mainland China use only. And now I buy a phone in the US and it is the version for the China mainland market only? No way. I don't even want to put my sim card into that phone (to be clear, this is not complaining about a phone MADE in China - most are! - but that the version is for the mainland China market with the mainland market restrictions!)

I have sent it back - they sent me a free return label and assured it will all be reimbursed so I still would recommend wireless place once I get my money back. There was no arguing with the return.

Minor issues: The charging cord is bright red and thick, and the fast charger, a feature I was going to use, doesn't come with a cord - it needs USB-C to USB-C (the small oval on both sides of the cord) - not a cord I have.

The device arrived to me in optimal condition, except that when I opened it the phone did not have its original paper and I doubted if it was new. But everything else, excellent.
