Guest syscode Posted September 29, 2012 Report Share Posted September 29, 2012 The article is a bit out of date considering expansys.com just slapped a £160(ish) price tag on the mob.. The alternatives mentioned do now look more interesting.. cink slim - cool name heh?? - and JIAYU G3/JY. Only question is really where is safe and reputable to get these from..

Guest PaulOBrien Posted September 29, 2012 Report Share Posted September 29, 2012 That's only an £8 increase from when I bought it so... I wouldn't call this out of date? P Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest syscode Posted September 29, 2012 Report Share Posted September 29, 2012 I see where you come from. however, when people read and calculate the dufference with other phones, eg the h 300, then the gap is 60, not 50, and its hard to tell where people's red lines are.. Anyhow, the price jump made me consider other devices. both because it was a sudden and arbitrary one, and because it made the phone seem less of a bargain..

Guest JethroBelman Posted October 1, 2012 Report Share Posted October 1, 2012 Does anyone know if this device would run a UK SIM and a foreign SIM (Portuguese specifically)? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest honix Posted October 2, 2012 Report Share Posted October 2, 2012 Hi syscode, hum...aren't you unhappy not to have to pay with Euro in UK ? i'm kidding. But you could pay more with Euro!

Guest PaulOBrien Posted October 4, 2012 Report Share Posted October 4, 2012 I probably won't be custom ROM'ing it i'm afraid. Good job it's pretty decent to start with. :P P Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Jaisan888 Posted October 8, 2012 Report Share Posted October 8, 2012 If you want cheap electronic devices provided your in the vicinity of Shenzhen; get a dark suntan, practice pidgeon English and head off to the SEG Plaza. You will also need to haggle very well..........be stubborn. No point in waiting for the prices to drop, by the time it does lower, you'd be wanting something else.
