Great Deal
The strongest point of this guitar is its look. Aesthetically speaking the guitar is awesome, nothing at glance says this instrument costs 150€: from the roasted neck to the perfect glossy finish of the body. The only thing I wold change would be a 3-ply pickguard (the mono layer is more suitable for a vintage instrument) but that's just an opinion.
Sound-wise it's pretty good, tuners and electronics are a good deal for this price range and they're easily swappable with a more high end stuff when you feel the need. Still with the stock gear you get the "Telecaster experience" you're looking for, with a high sound versatility and a minimal interface.
The only thing that holds me from giving the 5th star is the setup: when playing above the 8th fret I noticed a severe fret buzzing that needed to be taken care of by a professionist. This increased the price of the guitar by 50%.
Nonetheless I ended up with an instrument that is still very competitive against other guitars in the 200-250€ range and feels and sounds marvelous when I play it.

So good for less than 200 €
Great neck, great finish, great feeling, stays in tune.
The sound of the pickups? Well, it is the sound of a tele. Everything else is subjective. If you want to feel more confident, you can upgrade them for 100 € with a fender set but I am not sure that you will get a "better" sound.
Overall, a very pleasant guitar and very well built.

All good...
...only freets were a little bit rusty with sharp freet ends but easy to fix. Otherwise everything is ok.
