A couple questions about the phone

[Guest Citrinas]

How is the build quality of the phone? I've read that people need to replace it at least a few times, before they get a decent handset.

Is it locked to orange? If so, is it difficult to unlock?

Is the screen tough enough to withstand falls? Although I'm a carrefull person, yet I tend to drop my phone atleast once every couple of months

Thanks

Don't know bout the build quality, but its just an awesome phone for 99pounds.

If you buy your blade in the UK, its called orange San Francisco, costs about 100 pound, is new and the retailer doesn't say anything about it being unlocked it is locked to orange UK and very easily unlocked (for free).

Haven't really dropped it yet but you might want to buy a case...

Invest in a screen protector and jelly case. They're around £5 and it's very easy to unlock.

I find the build quality okay, it's not naff but not quality.

On orange website it says the phone costs £94.99, how did you get it for £75?

The £75 offer is only for existing Orange customers.

The £75 offer is only for existing Orange customers.

What do you mean by existing orange customers - does that mean for the ones that have contracts or also for PAYG?

[Guest Roph]

PAYG also, though you have to have been a (topping up) customer for a few months at least.

You may get lucky though if they can't be bothered to check.
