the fact that the explorer has a lower cpu level.....and is slower....but very similar in all other respects...ill leave u to make your decision lol

But why put ARMv7 into a cheaper phone? Cos the other day my friend was like to my other friend "Can I play temple run on your phone? [explorer]" and then I was like Nah its not powerful enough and then he said well I've got temple run and minecraft... That made me very very very angry
