How did the title of this thread change to a full review? I'll keep updating it as I discover new things. Meanwhile here is the Gsam from today 27 hours later with the phone still on and only 3% consumed including messing around with it for a few minutes this evening. My son is using it now to watch YouTube and I'm not going to charge it overnight and use it for the entire 9 hour return trip tomorrow to see what's left at the end of the day.
I was torn between spending $165 on this older tech phone or going for one from the newer big battery manufacturers. I don't intend to bash any particular brand but over on XDA the Bluboo battery has been measured at 4973mah not 5350mah. Many complaints by users on XDA including no quick charge, poor gps, overheating, no 5ghz wifi, SD card not working properly. I bought the THL 5000T just because it's a THL, well built, no nonsense phone that does what it says on the tin. I'm not saying it's the best but advising folks to buy from more established and reputable manufacturers.
