A good solid phone
Reviewed on Amazon.co.uk

The Medion Life X5020 is a well built product made with good quality materials, it boasts a large clear display that works well with the intuitive android software. The product perhaps boasts more battery life than it actually provides, usual browsing and texting required 2 charges daily this became a huge hindrance. There were a number of apps that were built into the phone that were poorly built and unnecessary but ultimately can be ignored. The phone brings to mind that of other more standard smartphones but ultimately this product is of a good build quality and is nice to use. The headphones that came with it were very good, and cancelled a lot of noise and were good for short tube journeys. The storage capacity is good and the dual sim element of the device was very useful and made an easy transition from using an iPhone. There are perhaps better phones on the market but for an entry level android it should well be considered.

Poorly and incompletely documented, user consideration evident by omission
Reviewed on Amazon.co.uk

This is an incomplete review, not through a lack of intent but because of poor design, a lack of user consideration and appallingly incomplete and undetailed user documentation, not that any was included in the box - it had to be downloaded. Due to its multiple failings, it proved impossible to add a SIM and consequently proved impossible to use. Those same failings will, of necessity, also result in a low personal rating.The Medion Life X5020 is a slimeline smartphone with a 5-inch screen. Powered by Android 5.0 Lollypop it provides for all the apps available from GoogleStore plus a Built-in GPS system, FM radio, audio and video players. It offers the usual two cameras, a 5MP front-facing module and a 13MP rear-facing one with a built-in flash LED. It has a usefully large 5-inch screen, practical although not the largest possible but then the phone does not have the price of the larger screens. It is an IPS unit, reasonably bright and contrasty but not necessarily the highest quality.The battery is a permanent fitting but offers 2600mAh for a longer stand-by and talk time. In fact, the impression was the phone is fully sealed all-round including the essential SIM drawer. Similar construction principles apply to modern-day Apple products but there the comparison ends.According to its packaging a Quick Start Guide is included but was not part of any of its documentation although the downloaded version suggests it to be part of the Safety data. Documention comprised a Safety Guide and Warranty booklet but that was all. It is claimed to be able to accept both a nano and micro-sized SIM plus an SD card. Although the extractor tool was not provided, once obtained it proved that there is space for a micro-SIM and SD card but no space for a second SIM - the product descxription and documentation are not correct, possibly relating to another version of the product.The manual is downloadable from Medion's German web-site, in English, but it is basic and far from detailed providing no clear labelling of parts and what, pre
