Judging from its appearance, ThL W8 looks like Samsung phone to some extent: imitative metal wiredrawing shading, mellow and full panel and narrow frame, all of which have somewhat signs of Samsung. However, its workmanship is quite great and the texture as well as quality is also appreciable.

Those who are careful may find the swelling part will be designed near the loudspeaker. When we put it on the table, the swelling part will relieve the wear and tear of its back; on the other side, the loudspeaker will be raised so that we won’t miss the calls in case of the loudspeaker being covered.
