It's a rebranded Archos 50 Cesium (oddly the Bush includes more storage at 16GB, and a higher res front camera), which is £20 more expensive. The processor is a Snapdragon 210, which is basically the same as the older SD400, just clocked 100mhz slower.
I like that they include an extra white battery cover, clear protective case and screen protector, as these are often hard to find for slightly obscure phones.
Hot from me.
To anybody buying this: Make sure to update the OS to the latest version, and also the store apps. I'm using a Lumia 550 at the moment, which still has a few niggles and bugs, but no showstoppers. Initially the phone was so buggy that it was almost unusable, the initial OS build (10586.0) isn't great, and the apps (such as 'Phone', 'Messaging'...etc) were beta versions from October 2015. Microsoft should really look into putting a sticker on the box warning people to expect a broken experience if updates aren't performed.

I got my mum a 4 inch Bush windows phone for £29 from Argos in the pre-Christmas sales, and it even came with a Lebara SIM with £10 top up.
It was her first dip into the Smartphone market, and is excellent. The qaulity of the phone seems as good as any of the big brands, and came with different battery back covers and a gel case. They even come with a two year warranty too!
With these Bush, you seem to get an awful lot for your money!

what's going on? a seemingly decent spec windows phone from Bush? Heat from me.
Seems like a decent WM mid-ranger. Personally I'd rather go for lumia 640 refurbished from o2.

Or get it unlocked and brand new for £10 (plus £20 top up) extra from carphone warehouse or £79.99 if you qualify for an upgrade.

There are separate phone and messaging applications for each SIM. You can switch between SIM's on the fly using a switch available in each app.
Only 1 SIM can be used for 4G data at any one time. You can switch which SIM you need for data in the SIM settings page. The secondary SIM will only work for calls and texts.

with the dual sim you choose what sim you want to use to call someone
so for example when you find the person you want to call it will come up with "call terry Number using sim 1
or "call terry number using sim 2)
