Also got mine today. Battery voltage measured 4.05V so figured it should boot, popped in a gash sim (EE) and a 16GB SD (format Ext4) and it started up ok. Battery was at 25% so attached to a charger and started to do a system update (861MB) - worryingly it is now 39% through and the battery has dropped to 16% despite being on charger - need to find a beefier charger urgently...
