Thanks for the heads up on some app not working properly on rooted A5 as well. I think I might just have to take a chance on this phone.

I love both my A5 and my A5 Pro CC. However, be aware that the A5 Pro CC has a significantly darker screen than the A5 because of the extra layer/filter for the colour. That means you may need to use the frontlight a bit more than on the A5. For me, that is not an issue. However, for some people with light sensitivity issues, it might be a problem.
The colours on the A5 Pro CC are very muted. For me, that is no issue at all. I am not expecting it to behave like an LCD or LED screen. I got it for using with maps and other such applications where having a slight bit of colour can make a huge difference in term of readability. You can see some of the photos which I posted on page nine in this thread:

In one post, I uploaded pictures of a map inside with the light on full. A few days later, I posted pictures of the same map in direct sunshine with the light off.
I do hope that Onyx eventually comes out with a phone if only to push Hisense to further refine theirs. Competition can be a very good thing for innovation. However Onyx definitely has their work cut out for them. Right now, I do more reading on my Hisense devices than on my Onyx ones except when I need to read a PDF on a large screen or take notes.
