Single touch – Back
Press – Home
Double-tap – Recent apps
Swipe horizontally – Switch between apps

Iridium Technologies will be the official distributor here in the country and will be available in almost all retailers including Lazada, MemoEx, Intogadgets, and Electroworld to name a few.

They mentioned that the ZUK Z1 is expected to be available starting next week for Php15,299. Buyers will have 1 year limited warranty for the unit and 6 months limited warranty for accessories.

what makes a phone with “last year processor” so bad? This year’s processors are plagued heating issues and battery hogs.
