Uniquely, this smartphone will run Cyanogen OS 12.1.1 operating system which is the customization of the OS Android 5.1 Lollipop (will be getting Cyanogen OS 13.1 in the future which will be based on Marshmallow).
In addition, the smartphone will have a 5-inch wide screen with a 720p HD resolution which has also been coated with Corning Gorilla Glass 3 tough withstand scratches and impact.
With about 10GB available when you first turn on the MV1 for the first time.

Gaming
Played about a hour or so on the MV1 playing a few games, like Asphalt 8 played it will no problems at all.
The Obi MV1 looks completely different to every other smartphone you see right now, but it’s for all the wrong reasons with a mashup on the Nokia/Microsoft Lumia design, but other parts of the design feel slightly iPhoneish. The bottom edges of the MV1 feel nice in the hand as they’re rounded off.
There’s no denying the design of the MV1 is unique it takes a lot of elements from other phones and combines them into one strange hybrid.
