G5 is not worth.
By yad.amit, 57 months ago
Hey Guys, I'm using this G5 phone from last 3 months. The fingerprint sensor stopped working after few months of usage and the phone's camera quality is bad as compared to same segmented phone. The phone has hanging problem. I would suggest not to buy this phone where we have some good phone's available in the market with same price. Earlier I was using G4, it was much better than this phone.(read more)
