I asked Mr jobs from beyond the grave about the term "better". He said most phone were "better" than his, but there were plenty of muppets happy to buy his phones instead so he just took their money. BTW, he said he is currently using a Blackberry Priv and particularly liked the physical keyboard.

I've owned this phone for a few months; my two complaints:
1) 8GB ROM (3.6GB usable) is not enough for me, as many apps cannot be transferred to SD card w/o root which leads me to
2) Phone is very difficult to unlock the bootloader / nay impossible to root / flash with anything else. There is currently no update for lollipop/marshmallow for this phone. So you must use the Miui kitkat + any launcher you please.
Other than that, battery life and performance are tremendous thanks to big.LITTLE, the custom android skin is actually pretty good, and the camera can take fairly good photos.

Give it a rest, will you. The question is whether or not this is a good deal for this product or a directly comparable product, not whether this or isn't better than an Apple product.

Heads up for those that dont know.
Warehouse deals are covered by 12 months amazon warranty same as new items.
I had a phone play up after 10 months. Went on to live chat and was refunded instantly and asked to return phone within a month.
Bought quite a few items from them and only had to return 1.

Is it official about the 1yr warranty or was it just Amazon's good will gesture that they've refunded you?

Yes, being cheap and also being better than Apple.
