    Some users complain about the
    1. light leakage from the LCD gap due to poor build quality
    2. very less available RAM for apps
    3. very less space for apps (basic version-4GB ROM)
    4. UI slugishness

      i have the basic bersion. no idea what’s the lcd gap light leakage thing, does’nt happen. the build quality is amazing, no gaps or anything. there is’nt even a light leakage from the buttons rear-light on the buttom, something that most china brands have. the ram is good enough to run real racing 3 while facebook and other apps are running in the background. i have a sd card for the space for apps- this is a problem with every 4gb rom phone. slugishness? none.

        Like i said, the Neo N003 looks too good for that. My advanced version is on the way, and amma do a review of it. Currently using a zp810 and its a very good phone.

    Too late Neo. Too late. Especially for international buyers 🙂

    Well I think Andi did not have any problems with this phone and he even thinks it is one of the best Mediatek android phones out there. So I would not say it is shit or bad build quality or anything like that. They had a lot of time to develop this phone and I don´t believe it is so bad like people write about it. But lets see what this advanced version brings. If no lags then I would give it a try. Lets hope Neo reads this and makes improvement when needed.

    As Andi mentioned in his review the silver bezel looks very dated.

    Maybe a wite colored N003 goes a bit better with that silver hoop.
    Btw, How to fix the GPS receiver?

    Maybe I’ll have some more luck here.

    Andi you keep listing the Micro SD card can go up to 32gb, I’m pretty sure it can take up to 64gb. If you look at the images on the neo mobiles page:
    http://www.neomobile.com.cn/mobile.php and look at the spec list at the bottom, it says SD (bunch of Chinese writing) 64GB.

    Can you check that out and please clarify? Cheers

    As for Chinapadmall: Thanks for not replying to my inquiry, despite me sending a follow-up reminder about my questions. Maybe I’ll take my 400 bucks elsewhere.

    About the light leakage from LCD, i think they probably bought a clone. The N003 looks too good for that.
