I don't need Google Play or Google snooping, but the whole shebang offers more goodies than just that. The Yota has the smaller, inferior screen, no sdcard, smaller battery, gets no more updates, but it's more compatible & still well supported by xda.

- Does the Hisense have usable TTS (Russian, Spanish)?
- How is the sound quality (with headphones)?
- Does the Yota definitely support USB-OTG?
- Can they both read exFAT formatted media (sdcard/OTG)?
If you don't care about having a color screen, I don't see how you could not chose the Hisense A5. Excpet maybe if you like having a matte EPD. I liked my yotaphone for the idea of having two screens but it's notorious for having a bad charging jacket and developing white lines on the EPD. I don't have an answer to your questions but I bet if the YP2 can do those things you listed, the Hisense A5 can do them, too and probably more.
