It sounds like those Vertu handsets: "Style" trumps features and updated system... The only difference is they're not charging Vertu prices.

Notice how it doesn't say how much memory? Probably another one with 256MB storage on board....

It's a low-end model that should deliver a reasonable level of smartphone power and capability at a low price.

If I was at the $200 end of the market, I'd look at this phone.

QVGA.. Gross.

I think the Huawei G300 is the minimum anyone should look at getting

Phone Arena says it is 384MB of RAM. 

That's do-able in a $200 phone.  It won't be awesome....but awesome costs more.
