2014 was a fruitful year for Chinese smartphone brands, among which THL 5000 gained great success. Now THL plans for a “mystery” event, it is said a new device THL 2015 will be launched. By now there is no clue from the company officials indicating that the successor of THL 5000 is coming. But, no kidding, there is no other THL phone that can lead a big event in March.

THL reveals nothing specific about the upcoming device. Just a starry background and the cryptic design.

Today we will provide more information about this THL 2015.

According to the internal information from Comebuy, this device will exceed the usual calm and reserved appearance feature. THL 2015 will use the metal frame, which will perfectly solve the little call problems, making the call much clearer. Comebuy’s internal info also said this THL 2015  will support rear fingerprint to unlock,MTK6752, 64 Bit 2 + 16 configuration, and moreover, it will be a 5-inch screen smartphone. Here is also a picture:

Of course, there are more expectations, such as the handling of camera, etc. THL has always been athletic and high-quality in design, so this time just let’s expect if there will be more highlights and surprise with this THL 2015 in the handling of the camera and also the overall appearance.

Stay tuned to our website and even Comebuy for more updates on the upcoming THL 2015.

UPDATE:

The device is now available for pre-order! You can purchase the device for just $239.99.

THL is a Chinese brand, which is known not only in China, but also internationally. They have released some quality devices for a budget price. This time, we take a look at the THL 4000.

This device packs quite plain and simple design, which does not stand out from the crowd too much, yet looks great. There is a speaker on the front along with the front facing shooter, which has 2mp. Also, there are nicely lit three capacitive buttons on the bottom. All of this sits around a good looking and sharp 4.7 inches 720p screen.

If we take a look at the back of the device, we can see a 5mp shooter along with the single LED flash on top of the device. The cover is made out of plastic, which has a nice feel to the touch.

As far as specs go, the device has quite average package. It comes Quad Core MTK6582 chip, clocked at 1.3GHz, Mali-400 MP GPU, 1GB of  RAM, 8GB of storage (which can be expanded via Micro SD slot). What is more, it has a wifi 802.11b/g/n, Bluetooth, GPS and other connectivity. On top of that it has a 3G network support (WCDMA 850/900/1900/2100MHz).

The highlight of the device is the huge battery, which has the capacity of 4000mAh. This size of juice should last you a least two days of usage.

We summarise some of the main features of the device:

THL 4000 4.7 inch Android 4.4 3G Phablet
RAM: 1GB
ROM: 8GB
Support Gravity/Light/Proximity Sensing System
FM/MP3/MP4/Bluetooth/GPS/OTG Function Supported
Note: This phone will only work with GSM+WCDMA networks: GSM 850/900/1800/1900MHz WCDMA 850/900/1900/2100MHz

We think that the THL 4000 is quite great device to buy, especially if you think about the low price point. We really liked the fact that it has an enormously huge battery, which has 4000mAh. Usually, you will have to pay around $99 for the THL 4000, but with this coupon – 4000CN, you can purchase it for just $85.99 from GearBest.

The post The Cheapest Way To Buy THL 4000 appeared first on Gizmochina.

Battery life is one of the most important factors that a user looks for when purchasing a new smartphone. But when it comes to Chinese value for money devices, this is one area where most phones slack. Many phones have Quad core and even Octa Core processors, but they feature less than 2500mAh battery, which gives only a few hours of usage available to the user.

However, there are some manufacturers who have taken special care in this regard. For example, we have seen multiple launches from the Chinese smartphone maker THL which came with a large battery. Today, we look at the two smartphones with a large battery from THL, the THL 4000 and the THL 5000.

While both feature a 4000mAh+ battery, their specifications are totally different. THL 4000 is aimed at the budget crowd who long for a better battery life, while the THL 5000 offers much more than a large battery as it comes with many of the premium features usually found only in flagships these days.

So, here’s the comparison between THL 4000 and THL 5000 in detail.

THL 4000 vs THL 5000

DESIGN

Like always, we start off with the design.

THL 4000, being a budget device comes with a 4.7 inch screen as opposed to the 5 inch display found on the THL 5000. However, there isn’t much difference between the two devices when it comes to design and dimensions.

THL 4000 measures 140 x 68 x 11.2mm while THL 5000 measures 145 x 72.3 x 8.9mm. As you can see, the length and the width are almost the same. But the 5000mAh battery does increase the thickness of the device by around 1.2mm.

On top of the display of both the devices lies the ear piece, sensors as well as a camera. Similar at the bottom lies the three capacitive buttons namely menu, home and back. You’ll also notice the small microphone opening at the bottom.

Like the front, the back too looks the same on both the devices. You have the camera sensor and LED flash at the top, followed by the THL logo just below it. At the bottom, you have the official THL slogan, technology-happy-life along with the speaker grill.

Inside, you have the large 4000mAh battery and 5000mAh battery on THL 4000 and THL respectively. Once the back cover is removed, you’ll see the two SIM card slots along with the MicroSD card slot.

THL 4000 has no buttons on the left but THL 5000 has the power button on the top left corner.

Both the power and the volume buttons lie on the right of THL 4000. However, the 5000 model only has the volume rockers on this side.

On both the models, the MicroUSB port and the headphone jack is situated on top.

Finally, at the bottom, you have the microphone hole on both the devices.

HARDWARE

While the design was similar on these devices, their hardware specifications differ significantly.

THL 4000 comes with MT6582 Quad Core processor clocked at 1.2Ghz with 1GB RAM and 8GB internal memory. On the other hand, THL 5000 comes with a much powerful MT6592T Octa Core processor clocked at 2.0Ghz with 2GB RAM and 16GB/ 32GB internal storage options. Both the models feature a MicroSD card slot which support cards up to 32GB in size.

While the THL 4000 features a 4.7 inch display with just qHD 960 x 540 pixel resolution, the THL 5000 sports a 5 inch screen with 1080p resolution. As a result, you will clearly see the difference between the display quality on both the devices.

As for the camera, the THL 4000 has a 5 MP rear sensor along with a 2MP front camera sensor. This is much smaller than the 13MP Sony IMX135 sensor and a 88 degrees 5MP wide angle camera found at the back and the front respectively of the THL 5000. So the image quality will be much better on the latter.

Even in the battery department, THL 5000 outdoes THL 4000. Just like their names suggest, the former comes with a much larger 5000 mAh removable Li-Polymer battery as opposed to the 4000mAh removable battery found on the latter. Moreover the 5000mAh battery can be used to charge other devices too, so the THL 5000 can also act as a powerbank, which we feel is a very neat feature, especially when you have a lot of gadgets around with much smaller batteries.

Both support dual SIMs as well as the following network bands: 2G:GSM 850/900/1800/1900MHz & 3G: WCDMA 850/900/1900/2100MHz. As you can see, even with the higher price THL 5000 lacks 4G LTE, which is a bit of a disappointment for those who were looking to take advantage of high speed LTE networks.

Other connectivity features are common on both the devices like Bluetooth 4.0, Wi-Fi, GPS/ AGPS, FM Radio etc. However, for the additional price, you do get NFC on THL 5000.

PRICE

While we have seen that the THL 5000 outdoes the THL 4000 in almost every aspect, the purchase decision will totally depend upon the difference in their price tags.

At present, THL 5000 is available for $239 at Coolicool. So, you have to pay a premium of exactly $150 for the better features as compared to $99.99 price tag for THL 4000.

Personally, we feel the upgrades are enough to pay the extra $150, however if you are short on cash, THL 4000 can be a great alternative. You don’t get such a large battery on a device of this price, so even it features a sloppy camera sensor or a less powerful processor, it will easily last you for more than 2 days.

If you are looking for a reason not to buy the pricier THL 5000, then the lack of 4G LTE support should be on top. THL 5000 could easily have been one of the best value for money devices in the market if it supported LTE. Moreover, the larger 5000mAh battery would have been a much needed feature for a battery sucking tech like LTE. But if you are happy with 3G speeds, the device looks like a good buy.

So which THL device would you choose if you wanted a large battery?

The post THL 4000 vs THL 5000 : Which one should you buy? appeared first on Gizmochina.

We recently covered an article on the Best Chinese smartphones that you can buy in 2014. These phones were perfectly balanced with powerful specifications and a decent pricetag. But what if you are not willing to spend a lot on a new smartphone?

We have got a lot of requests from readers asking to write an article on cheap Chinese phones to buy in 2014. And today, we decided to make the list. It took some time, but we are sure, it will help you decide which phone is perfect for you this holiday season.

Although these phones come under $100, they have enough hardware to challenge phones from international companies which usually sell for more than $200. We have also added deals and coupons wherever available to get you the phone for a lot less than its regular pricetag.

So, lets not waste any more time and check out the Best Chinese Smartphones under $100.

1. NEO M1

Looking for the best deal of the season? Well, you have got to take a look at the Neo M1 mid range smartphone. The device comes with a beautiful aluminium design which makes it look much more costlier than it is actually.

The phone features a 1.3GHz MediaTek MT6582 quad-core chipset with 1GB RAM and 8GB ROM. The storage is further expandable via a MicroSD card slot up to 32GB. On the front, you have a 5inch 720p display which translates into pixel density of 326PPI. The device is extremely thin at 5.99mm and weighs just about 148 grams.

On the back, you have a 13MP Sony BSI sensor, which according to our tests take decent pictures while the front camera measures 5MP. You have a 2,000 mAh battery to power all these features, which we feel is just enough for a day’s usage.

As you can see, the Neo M1 has all the features that you want from a mid range smartphone, in fact much more than a regular $100 smartphone would offer. The device is normally available for sale for $180, but thanks to the holiday season sale, you can get it for just $99 from Giztop. That’s an impressive $80 discount.

Now you guys get it why the Neo M1 makes to the top of the list?

PROS:

• Beautiful Aluminium Design
• Super Slim
• Amazing price

CONS:

• Still runs on Android 4.2 Jellybean

We have also included our review of the device below to help you make the decision.

2. Zeaplus M4

Next up in the list is the recently announced Zeaplus M4. This is another beautiful looking phone as it is the clone of the popular Xiaomi Mi4 flagship. So, if you like the Mi4, the Zeaplus M4 should definitely be on your list.

Apart from the beautiful design, the affordable M4 does have some decent hardware up its sleeve. For example, you get the same MediaTek MT6582, 1.3GHz, Quad-core processor on this device as the Neo M1 along with 1GB RAM. Again like the Neo model, the M4 comes with an 8GB ROM which can be expandable with MicroSD card.

There’s a 5.0 inch 720p display up front with Gorilla Glass 3 protection. On the back, you have an 8MP f/2.2 camera with LED flash and 2K video support, while on the front, there’s a 2MP shooter. The sensor is smaller than the M1, but expect similar image quality from both the devices.

Although the Zeaplus M4 is lighter than the Neo M1, its much thicker at 9mm. But to compensate the extra width, you get a 2,500mAh battery inside.

You can purchase the new Zeaplus M4 directly from the company website for just $99.

PROS:

• Beautiful Design taken from Xiaomi Mi4
• Super Light (130 grams)

CONS:

•  Relatively thick

3. CUBOT S200

Those who hate smooth back texture on their phones, can take a look at the Cubot S200 smartphone. Unlike the M4 and the Neo M1, the S200 comes with a rough back panel, which makes it easier to hold the device. It may not be as pretty as the above two, but we know there are some buyers who will like its design.

Internals are more or less the same as other phones in its class. So, you get the 1.3Ghz MT6582 Quad Core SoC, 1GB RAM and 8GB ROM with expandable storage. There’s an 8MP rear camera like the M4 along with a 5MP front shooter. The 5 inch screen up front features a 1280 x 720 pixel resolution.

Now you must be thinking, this is the same as the above two, right? But NO! Cubot comes with one thing that most other smartphones in this price range lacks, a big battery. You get a 3,300 mAh battery inside, which is actually bigger than what most flagships feature these days. As a result, you will get an exceptional battery life on the device, much better than the above two devices.

So, if you are looking for a device under $100 which will last you more than a day long, then Cubot S200 is your best bet.

The phone is available for purchase at Comebuy for just $100. Pretty good deal right?

 PROS:

• Rough back design
• 3,300mAh Extra Large battery

CONS:

• Relatively thick (due to the large battery)
• No Gorilla Glass

Full Tech Specifications

 4. THL T6 PRO

If you are looking for something more powerful, then you can go for the new THL T6 Pro. It comes with a Mediatek MT6592m Cortex A7 processor clocked at 1.4 Ghz. This should give you more than enough power to run any apps or games on the device without any lag. For RAM, you get 1GB and for storage, you have 8GB internal with MicroSD card expansion support.

On the back there’s an 8MP camera which clicks decent pictures while on the front, there is a 2MP sensor. The screen is of 5 inches like the earlier listed models and comes with 720p resolution. Battery is a bit of a disappointment, as it comes with only 1,900 mAh capacity Li-Polymer battery. But even with 8 cores, the device should survive a day, owing to the less powerful power efficient Cortex A7 processor.

Design wise, the device has nothing new to offer, but the it feels well built and the power of 8 cores should definitely attract a lot of new users to the company.

At present, you can purchase the device from comebuy for just $108.5. You can also opt for the German warehouse but it would be a bit more costly.

You can also buy from lightinthebox.com for $111 from this link here.

PROS:

• Powerful Octa Core processor

CONS:

• 1,900mAh Small Battery
• No Gorilla Glass

5. THL 4000

Cubot S200 isn’t the only smartphone in town with a large battery. In fact, if you are looking for a device that will really last for more than a day, even with heavy use, then the THL 4000 is perfect for you. The THL model makes up for what its elder brother THL T6 lacked, with a large 4,000 mAh battery (hence the Name THL 4000!). This is really the most you can get on a smartphone under $100.

So, you must be wondering why didn’t we list it ahead of the S200. Well, the reason is simple. Apart from the large battery, the THL 4000 is a very average phone Although the basic package remains the same – MTK6582 1.3Ghz Quad Core processor + 1GB RAM + 8GB ROM, the camera sensor and the display are much smaller than what you get from the earlier listed devices. For example, you just have a 4.7 inch screen with 960 x 540 qHD resolution. Rear camera is of 5MP and the front camera is of 2MP.

However, for a smaller camera sensor and display, you have to shell out a lot less than other phones in its class. Usually, you will have to pay around $99 for the THL 4000, but you can get it for $91 from Comebuy for a limited period. There’s also an option to ship it from German Warehouse.

PROS:

• A massive 4,000 mAh battery
• Much Cheaper Pricetag ($91)

CONS:

• Low resolution 4.7 inch screen (Just qHD instead of 720p HD)
• No Gorilla Glass
• Very Thick (11.2mm)

 Full Tech Specification

6. Cubot S168

Don’t have $100 to spend on your next smartphone or looking for an extremely cheap back up smartphone? We have a device which satisfies this need too. We present the cheapest smartphone in the list, the Cubot 168. Its less than $80 but only sacrifices in some areas to get to this price tag.

For example, the display remains at 5 inches like most other phones in the list, but the resolution is reduced to qHD i.e. 960 x 540 pixels. Also, the battery is small and at 1,900 mAh capacity, it should barely last you an entire day. However, other than this, the features are the same as the S200. So you have a MT6582 Quad Core processor, 1GB RAM and 8GB internal storage with a MicroSD card slot. Camera too remains the same at 8MP rear sensor and 5MP front sensor.

So, the choice is simple. If you are short on cash and are looking for a cheap smartphone, Cubot S168 should serve you well.

Let me remind you that you have a powerful Quad Core processor as well as a decent display in this phone, so things are not as bad as you may think. Its just that you have better options out there, all for less than a $100 which makes this device look a bit weak.  But for $80, we think you get much more than your money’s worth.

Buy Cubot S168 at just $77 directly from the reputed retailer lightinthebox!

PROS:

• Cheapest phone in the list

CONS:

• Low resolution screen (qHD)
• Small Battery (1,900 mAh)
• No Gorilla Glass

Full Tech Specifications

 7. KingSing S2

If you didn’t like the design on the earlier listed phones, there’s a very good chance that the KingSing S2 won’t disappoint you. This is because, S2 is a clone of one of the most beautiful smartphones currently available in the market. the LG G3. It even features the same rear volume and power buttons like the G3.

The build is quite solid with a glossy back cover (unlike the metal finish on the G3) and looks wise, you will be impressed for sure (for a device of this price). Surprisingly, there’s even a heart rate sensor on the device, which although isn’t very accurate, it could be something that you can boast about your $100 smartphone.

Inside, the specifications are pretty average. You get a Quad Core 1.3GHz MTK6582 processor with 1GB RAM and 8GB storage with memory card slot. Like most other models, you have a 5 inch display up front, but unfortunately, the resolution is just qHD i.e. 960 x 540 pixels. For camera you have 8MP sensor at the back and a 2MP sensor up front. The battery is also decent, a 2,000 mAh capacity(though we would have loved atleast 2,300mAh), which with the power efficient processor and the lower resolution screen should be just enough to last an entire day.

So, the only reason you would choose this device from other rivals in the market is because of its design. But, there’s one more incentive. The KingSing S2 is available at Giztop for just $89, cheaper than most other phones in the list.

Or you can also buy it from  the reputed retailer lighinthebox.com for a slightly higher price $97

PROS:

• Good Looks (LG G3 Clone)
• Heart Rate sensor
• Slightly Cheaper Pricetag

CONS:

• Build Quality not that great
• Lower Resolution Display
• No Gorilla Glass

8. Elephone G5

All the phones we have covered till now feature 5 inch screen or less. But those who are looking for something bigger, can go for the new Elephone G5 smartphone. It comes with a 5.5 inch display with  a resolution of 1280 x 720 pixels. While this will reduce the pixel density of the screen as compared to other phones in the list, the display still should be clear enough for your everyday use.

G5’s design is inspired by the famous OnePlus One flagship, so you get the same premium soft back finish on the phone that everyone loves. The overall dimensions of both the devices are almost the same, the G5 measures 155 x 78.5 x 7.5 mm while the OPO measures 152.9 x 75.9 x 8.9 mm.

Like all other phones in the list, you have a Cotex A7 1.3Ghz MTK6582 processor inside with 1GB RAM and 8GB ROM. On the back, you get a 13MP camera along with a 5MP front shooter. As you can see, the rear camera sensor is slightly better than the 8MP usually found on phones in this price range. The battery is also decent and at 2,550 mAh, you can easily play around with the device for a day.

Elephone G5 usually sells for $130 on various online stores, but as a part of the holiday season sale, the device is available for just $99 from Giztop.

PROS:

• Carries the loved OnePlus One Design
• Larger Display (5.5inch)
• Gorilla Glass

CONS:

• Lower Pixel Density

Here’s our short review on the G5. Also, check out the hands on video to get more idea about the phone.

9. Leagoo Lead 3S

Back when we reviewed the Leagoo Lead 2, we were quite impressed with the hardware that it brought to the table. Now, there’s the new Leagoo Lead 3S model, which is ideal for someone who’s looking for a compact phone.

We have made sure that this list contains all types of phones that will suit the needs of different users, and this ‘Lead 3S’ is especially made for people who want a small screen. We know not everyone likes a large 5 inch or 5.5 inch device which is hard to fit in the pocket, so this compact device with a 4.5 inch screen will definitely serve these guys well.

Like we said above, it comes with a 4.5 inch display with a qHD resolution i.e. 960 x 540 which is good for a small device. The processor, RAM and the internal storage are MT6582 1.3Ghz Quad Core, 1GB and 8GB respectively, just like the other models in the list. Similarly, you have an 8MP rear camera and a 2MP front camera on the device. With the smaller screen, you get a smaller battery too, but at 1,600 mAh, the talk time should be at par or slightly lesser than most other devices.

Even with these features, the device is quite cheap. You can purchase the device for just $89 from a famous retailer, Banggood.com

PROS:

• Compact (4.5 inch screen)
• Cheap ($85.99)

CONS:

• Small Battery (1,600 mAh)
• No Gorilla Glass

10. LANDVO L550

Looking for a cheaper Octa Core running smartphone under $100? Then take a look at the LANDVO L550 model. It comes with the same Octa Core MTK6592 1.4Ghz processor as the THL T6 Pro model. You get 1GB RAM, 8GB ROM along with a memory card expansion slot.

However, for a cheaper price tag, you have to sacrifice in some areas. For example, the 5.0 inch screen up front is of 960 x 540 pixel qHD resolution as opposed to the HD resolution display on the THL T6 Pro. Moreover, you get a slightly smaller 1,800 mAh battery on the device as opposed to 1,900 mAh one found on the latter.

Other specifications are almost the same as T6 Pro, so we are not elaborating further.

The device is currently listed on various websites for $110 but at Pandawill, you can get it for just $99.

PROS:

• Powerful Octa Core processor (MTK6592 1.4Ghz)
• Cheap Price tag ($89)

CONS:

• No Gorilla Glass
• Lower Resolution (qHD)
• Small Battery (1,800mAh)

The post Best Chinese Smartphones under $100: 2014 Edition appeared first on Gizmochina.

In this review, we check out THL’s T6 Pro. This octa-core entry-level phone is definitely worth it for those who plan to buy their first cellphone.

Appearance

The THL T6 Pro has a similar appearance to the THL T6S. This phone weighs about 150g and has a thickness of 8.2mm. It has a micro SD and two regular-sized SIM card slots. At the back, you will find the camera which is well placed, and below it are an LED flash and THL’s logo. Overall, it looks pretty good.

Display screen

        The THL T6 Pro sports a 5-inch 1280 x 720 OGS display screen with a pixel density of 320ppi. The quality of the screen is so good that even outside in the sunlight with maximum brightness, you can still see the screen clearly.

Performance and benchmark tests

The following are the results for the THL T6 Pro in the Antutu Benchmark test as well as all of its specifications.

The MT6592M octa-core processor is perfectly compatible with the Android 4.4.2 Kitkat. Even powerful games like Real Racing 3 can be played without any problems.

Camera 

       The THL T6 Pro’s rear-facing camera works very well. The photos are all very clear with very little noise. Even with little light, the quality is still excellent. With auto-focus, you can also take 8mp photos. I cannot say the same for the 2mp front-facing camera. The LED light also works well.

Here are some samples taken using the THL T6 Pro’s rear-facing camera:

Battery Life 

       The tablet can last up to 7 hours if you surf the web with full brightness.

Connectivity 

It has support for 2G and 3G networks but not 4G, unfortunately.

Conclusion

       Overall, this is a great cellphone to have for those who have never owned a cellphone, although it suffers from a few problems such as limited battery life.

The post THL T6 PRO Review appeared first on Gizmochina.

The newly available THL 100s is a pretty impressive octa-core smartphone. There have been complaints about the wi-fi signal dropping even very close to the router. There is a simple fix to this, flip the rear cover around until it connects with the rear of the phone, this will boost your signal back up to normal standards. The reason for this is that inside the rear cover is an antenna which means that the signal is easily lost if the cover is not held against the phone.  An easy enough fix to a problem that could easily frustrate even the most patient user if they haven’t been informed of what the problem is. Well, now you know, go enjoy all the benefits of the new phone without at least some of the confusion.

The post THL 100s wi-fi signal issue explained. appeared first on Gizmochina.

In the Philippines, on June 25 and 26, 2014, through LAzada, THL Smartphone’s, the exclusive and official distributor will be selling THL T100s Monkey King 2, enormously Php 3,400 off its standard SRP for only Php 10,599.

On June 26, 2014, interestingly, by Lazada, the price tag of Xiaomi Mi3, Php 10,599 will be distributed. Through the same online store, the same amount on the same date of present Octa Core flagship will be lowered of SRP by THL is not a coincidence. As for the promo or for the motivation, no appropriate reason has been revealed by the Novo7. Also it is deemed that it is just for the reason as in the Philippine market, the entry of counter Xiaomi’s is meant to be challenged.

In the country, by a challenging mobile player as well as a fellow Chinese, from Xiaomi’s debut, they are trying to seize the attention of Pinoy customers. More than the Apple iPhonem in China, the Xiaomi Smartphone’s are more affordable and are primarily sold in the market. Even they are growing on a high speed over there as per the Xiaomi Mi3 headlines.

According to the answer of question “Xiaomi will only be selling 3,000 Mi3 sets on June 26. Will you also be matching that figure?”  Asked to Sir Adrian at the meeting, we intend to sell more on those two days; the 25th and 26th. So yes, the promo will be valid until T100s stocks last.”

There are number of players in the market and as a competitor of Xiaomi, there are many reasons. The foremost is that there are many techniques to sell the product. Secondly, customer has their growing needs and demands. Finally the thing that though the company works very well, still there are some weaknesses left which competitors took advantage of.

The THL offers a solution to this problem: according to the manufacturer, the 5000 mAh battery, made by Amprius, is 25-30% more powerful than other current batteries and can even be used to charge other devices. It can, THL assert, power 47 hours of talking or 11 hours of internet use or 11.6 hours of video playback. This is unprecedented and makes the THL 5000 a hugely desirable model for the heavy media or gaming user and as such it’s well worth the $299 asking price.
