Post-repair phone demonstration video here: • MKTEL M2023 $6 feature...
There will be no review yet. I've managed to test it briefly when it arrived. Then I've turned it off and left in a drawer waiting for a sim card (it required full size sim card). Postal service lost my first sim card. When the second one finally arrived, the phone was dead - can't charge it, can't turn it on.
Update: Aliexpress comments suggest that it uses Nokia BL-5C type battery, the same used by numerous Chinese devices these days. I have a portable famiclone looking like a bad Game Boy imitation. It also uses knock-off BL-5C battery. I swapped batteries and my phone was working again. But plugging the charger still causes no effect, so charging port is broken. Now I have two batteries and a famiclone as an external charger.
Seller's consultant wanted me to upload this video as a evidence (they can't download it from my server or mega) to youtube or google drive, so here it is.
Update 2: No response from the seller. Meanwhile charging port is working again after short re-soldering. Micro sd card slot works. It has bluetooth, gprs, audio/video player, basic web browser, facebook client, fm radio that works without headphones and a flashlight.

I've added a link in the description to a followup demonstration video (after repairing the charging port that wasn't soldered properly). Some aliexpress comments suggest that it may come with a fake imei number.
