Review:

Above anything else, Arc Mobile Nitro 400D is a budget-friendly dual-core Android phone. Even-though I have to agree that the dual-core is a bit overrated considering that it only has 512MB RAM, still the fact remains that it’s cheap price for Php3,990 android phone it is the product main selling point, but it's not a pixel-pack screen or a slow snappy engine. I will give it a 7/10 score for the whole pack of Arc Mobile 4000D.
