Well, I don't know how keen I am on moving to Beijing, somehow managing to crack the password, and potentially learning Chinese.

Will it work on Verizon LOL

I'll stick with my ICON for just a little longer...

Not a bad deal if your looking for a phone and are on the right network...Nice specs for low money

Band Details 2G GSM 850/900/1800/1900; 3G TD-SCDMA 2010-2025/1880-1920 WCDMA 900/2100MHz

So basicly it's a 2G phone unless your in an area AT&T hasn't refarmed yet and you could get 3G.
No 4G at all on this phone.

Worthless to me without the trademark Nokia/Microsoft Lumia design and build quality, PureView, OIS, and wireless charging
