Just curious if anyone else is a inquisitive as me on this phone and might pull the trigger and purchase one?
I ordered one this week from a trusted US-based seller on ebay with good reviews about this specific phone. I didn't want to worry about customs fees, including tariffs, or the counterfeit ROM some Chinese vendors have installed. The counterfeit ROM doesn't play nice with US users on AT&T, but there are work arounds, namely, unlocking the bootloader then installing the Chinese ROM then installing the EU ROM--you can only install the EU ROM from the Chinese ROM.
I should get my phone next week--the vendor is on the east coast and I'm on the west. I'm a fan of Huawei, but they've raised their prices too much--I refuse to pay a grand or more for a phone. I'm impressed with the specs for this phone, given the price. I look forward to getting it.
