Although it is a relatively unknown brand and a relatively new player on the market (since 2011), Wiko has nevertheless managed to acquire a clear place in the world of smartphones alongside superpowers such as Samsung and Apple.
When I was looking for a new device that would still be affordable, but would still have quite the necessary 'umpf', I regularly came across devices from Wiko, including this one. Never heard of the brand before, I decided after some research to take a chance and it has certainly not disappointed so far!
The device looks at first glance and feels quite light and quite thin. This is possibly because the device is relatively larger and the edges are rounded, because it is not really much lighter or thinner. It fits comfortably in the hand and, when held in the left hand, the buttons for volume and on/off sit comfortably under the index and middle fingers.
When I first wanted to use it and insert the battery, I did have some trouble opening the back. Not only because it comes off a bit stiff, but also because you remove it in a different way than you would initially think. The slit at the back, together with the horizontal gutters, are NOT an indication of a cover that can be removed. These are purely cosmetic. Don't be fooled, so you can leave your nails whole and screwdrivers behind.
Once on you imagine your way into the (new) tight environment of Android 6.0 Marshmallow. It responds appropriately and pleasantly. I'm not a heavy user myself, so I can't say how the 1.3GHz quad-core processor and Marshmallow perform under pressure, but really heavy users will probably go straight to the octa-core devices.
The 2000 mAh battery seems to charge relatively quickly, even via USB from the PC and (without using too much Wi-Fi, Bluetooth or GPS) to last quite a while on a single charge.
If battery life is really a necessity, the usage can even be set to "Eco" which makes the screen change to a screen that resembles a Windows phone with only a few basic functions: calling, texting, phonebook, clock and alarm. This is very easy to turn off.
With 294 PPI (Pixels Per Inch) and a resolution of 720 x 1280 pixels, the 5 inch screen looks good enough for the average user and the 8 Megapixel camera takes decent pictures.
Despite the fact that it is not reported in product information under "standard delivery", a headset is included. These are in-ear plugs that almost completely close off the hearing canal. The headset looks a bit cheap, but it does deliver a very decent sound quality.
All-in-all you get a Marshmallow dual-sim device for a very reasonable price with excellent performance and a beautiful design.

Switched from an iPhone 5 to this wiko. Basically has everything that is expected from a smartphone today. Material looks a bit cheap, battery does not last longer than a day. Furthermore, a great phone, processor fast enough to run the new apps well and the internet is also good at speed.
