Cool. I don't think you can be disappointed.

It works great. Screen, battery, wifi, GPS, and 3G signals are good. No crashes.

PS. 1. Speaker volume can be increased with MTKTools. 2. Root with latest version of Chinese VRoot (not english version). 3. USB disk doesn't show up in Windows for me, instead I use Total Commander with ADB plugin. 4. New Coolpad F2 will be better, with very fast MT6595.

Coolpad F1 has KitKat update. Coolpad 7320 is still on 4.2.2. Bootloader is fine, to install custom ROM just press volume up and power and select .zip from SD card.

> Best sub-$200 phone I've come across that feels state of the art.

Coolpad 7320 (bought for $139!, 5.5'') and Coolpad F1 (5'') are better for me.

- Faster

- Much better camera

- Dual sim. Very important for me because I can use free unlimited internet on secondary card.

- MicroSD

- Bigger screen space - no Android buttons bar on bottom.

- Same high quality. Coolpad is 6th biggest smartphone manufacturer in the world.

I compared my Coolpad 7320 with real (hands on) Samsung Galaxy Note 3 and it's quite similar.
