Smart 4 Turbo smartphone - €29.99 in Dunnes Stores mailing offers

Curb Your Enthusiasm · 17-08-2015 6:34pm #1

Just a heads up for those of you that have a Dunnes Stores valueclub card and receive offers in the post with your usual card statement.

Got mine today in the post, and included was a leaflet with a promo barcode advertising the Vodafone Smart Turbo for only €29.99 on PAYG, when bought before the 15th September in a VF store. The leaflet says it is when switching your number, so just get a free 48 or Tesco SIM first online if needs be.

Excellent price for the phone in fairness. 1GB RAM/Snapdragon 400/5MP Camera with flash/Android 4.4

Unlock codes are hard to come by online, but if you know someone on Vodafone they can unlock it for you free of charge usually.

Picked mine up in-store today. No issues at all buying it, handed over the voucher and gave him the number of a spare 48 SIM I had. No credit needed to be bought at all. Grand total €29.99

snubbleste · 19-08-2015 6:35pm

How easy is it to unlock? Some pointers please.

I got the same voucher in post also, needing a new phone as my Samsung Galaxy Ace is slowing down, as it was a handy phone at start.

It's good that you had no problem getting it in the store, our local store was picky when i got 2 Vodafone Smart phones for family posted one Dec on boards, that they had to come in store for them :mad: not much of a surprise for xmas, just got them online & no problem.

I'll head for a bigger store, i've a few spare Tesco sims about, if it's possible to say it's for someone else, would that do?

But would be handy if someone ever found an unlock code as well.

Yeah that should be fine. Just be sure you have the 089 number from the SIM pack to give them.

Can I suggest that if anyone is giving away vouchers that they are given to regular BA contributors

fergiesfolly · 20-08-2015 7:45am

Lads, I have a couple of Meteor sims at home, that have never been used or registered.
Do they need to be used on their own network before they'll (Carphone warehouse) port the number to Vodafone?

vienne86 · 20-08-2015 8:07am

Brilliant price - good phone. I'm not in the market right now, but did a double take when I saw this.

54and56 · 20-08-2015 8:09am

Is this phone even worth €29.99? The reviews on the VF site http://shop.vodafone.ie/shop/phones/vodafone-smart-4-turbo-pay-as-you-go-black# are very mixed. Some people think it's a great phone for €79 whereas a lot of others complain of crashing, overheating, poor camera, poor WiFi performance and rubbish battery.

Good (Irish) review here

Has anyone here gotten their's yet and what are your impressions? I know it's only €29.99 but if it's not useable that could be a waste of €29.99.

I have a voucher if anyone wants it.

Just grab a pre pay sim from another company. "Port" that to vodafone when getting this. Then throw your own sim into the phone.

kenkin · 20-08-2015 11:26am

I know this will sound stupid but what does "port that to Vodafone" mean

It means to move your number to Vodafone.

I got mine yesterday and after playing around with it, trying games, 1080p videos etc. I can say it is a very capable phone and definitely worth 30 quid. Asphalt 8 ran surprisingly smooth on this, as did a few of my blu-ray 1080p rips.

The Sim you are using as a fake 'port' does not need to have been used. He didn't even verify my number.

That's all I needed to hear, thanks Techmaster.

I got my 10 year old daughter a Smart Prime 6 http://shop.vodafone.ie/shop/phones/vodafone-smart-prime-6-pay-as-you-go-anthracite a few weeks back for €89.99 which she used mostly for games, snapchatting her pals and Netflix. I was very impressed with it's capability and build quality until she dropped her bag and cracked the screen. Cost to replace the screen? €0.01 more than it cost to buy the phone

I think this Smart 4 Turbo will more than suffice for her needs and with the added protection of this case - http://www.amazon.co.uk/gp/product/B00T60AXMK?psc=1&redirect=true&ref_=oh_aui_detailpage_o00_s00 for less than €10 delivered I think I'll have her back up and running for €40 which is €50 less than the cost of fixing her phone or buying another Smart Prime 6.

It should be absolutely fine for her needs. Very speedy with Nova Launcher installed and all the Vodafone bloatware uninstalled.

Did you get a voucher from Dunnes?
