I would always prefer a phone from a reputed company and not fall for such new startups which give amazing specs in the device at low cost . OnePlusOne users worldwide are facing issues like tint yellow at bottom of the screen. Such issues won’t be there in a reputed company’s phone. And privacy will be their major concern and they will fix it at any cost. I seriously don’t understand y ppl run behind specs alone.
Yes, that’s why when it comes to Electronic Gadgets, people prefer a brand than Features. Xiaomi would have captured the Indian Smartphone market but the things which the company did may not sound Pleasing to people! 🙂
