Guest Frankish Posted September 1, 2012 Report Share Posted September 1, 2012 Seems there isnt anything in the price range that can beat this yet? Even second hand? Even up to 150 pound mark still doesn't seem to be anything better. Acer gallant duo seems OK but not out yet. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest timfimjim Posted September 1, 2012 Report Share Posted September 1, 2012 (edited) True. I'd be reluctant to upgrade now anyway seeing as though I haven't had the phone 6 months, but lack of hwa and a laggy ICS is very annoying. Keeping an eye out for any good deals.

Guest Andymac1969 Posted September 1, 2012 Report Share Posted September 1, 2012 I have just bought a Nokia 710 £89.95 at CPW, not Android which I much prefer, but a really nice phone, very quick no lag, built well, can make it your own with the changeable covers, Windows 7.5 mango is OK, not as much fun, and not really able to change it to much OS wise, but a really nice phone, Nokia Drive and Music are superb to use, radical option for most on here, but as a usable everyday phone, it's great. I prefer my G300, but enjoying a Nokia once again. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest tcpaulh Posted September 1, 2012 Report Share Posted September 1, 2012 Get a G300. Nothing to really touch it at the moment unless you want something second hand. Think they can still be had for £70 by setting up an account at very.co.uk. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest trueno2k Posted September 1, 2012 Report Share Posted September 1, 2012 (edited) This looks interesting dependent on developers being interested aswell!... --> [media=] ... BUT, not sure if it will be worth it if import tax is needed to be paid for it if found to be needed though!... This is what I got from a calculator [below] Import duty & tax rates You classified Jiayu g3 as Phones & Accessories -> Mobile Phone. Based on this classification, the import duty rate for importing a Jiayu g3 into is 0%. The import VAT rate for a Jiayu g3 is 20%. Calculation example The actual import duty & taxes due are determined by the value of the product and the cost of importing. Here is an example calculation for import duty & taxes for importing a Jiayu g3 into United Kingdom from China: Product value: £133.00 Shipping costs: £25.33 Insurance costs: £0.00 Total import value: £158.33 Import duty @ 0%: £0.00 Import VAT @ 20%: £31.67 Total import duty & VAT: £31.67 Edited September 1, 2012 by trueno2k Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

As I will probably only have a GSM ( calls and text only ) simcard in the secondary sim slot and the main slot will carry my main number simcard... All it needs it CWM, ROOT, & Custom ROMS and I'll be happy ;) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Frankish Posted September 2, 2012 Report Share Posted September 2, 2012 Gallant duo is already out three members have received theirs yesterday Where from?

Guest Jaisan888 Posted September 4, 2012 Report Share Posted September 4, 2012 You classified Jiayu g3 as Phones & Accessories -> Mobile Phone......... +1 on the JiaYu G3. It has the best specs that comply to my requirements, it's a Dual SIM device but it 's not easy to find a trusted source. Nowadays even MS/DELL nVidia etc etc etc would have no qualms at pulling a "fast one" nevermind trying to purchase from the little fish market.

Guest Frankish Posted September 4, 2012 Report Share Posted September 4, 2012 On the subject of expansys turns out my stock jellybean browser doesn't like their website. It doesn't load but on opera it does! As soon as my shares sell I'll use a bit to pay for this! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
