Chinese phone

seannash

So Since I lost my Iphone I'm looking for a new phone.

I dont have alot of money to spend but I'm looking to getting a very up to date phone and to be honest it seems like the best bang for buck phones are the Chinese brands.

I don't want a clone phone but something that is from a known brand(Obviously not known in Europe)

So can anyone recommend a good phone?
Ive researched a bit myself but I just want to make sure I haven't missed any

Have a read of this thread.

Ive read that already.To be honest I would hold out for the G4 as itll be in my price range.
The only problem with the G4 is that I dont particularly like the look of it

That's ok. How about you send us links to some of the phones you do like the look of and we'll tell you what we think?

While that's great value for money (I bought it for my dad) I think the OP is looking for something with a bit more horsepower (1Gb ram etc.).

well to be honest I'm kinda looking to see if I missed anything in that price range.the OPPO finder 3 looks great but as its dual core and I could potentially get a quadcore phone with alot of other features(13MP camera,better screen) for the same money.

the finder 5 looks fantastic but its a bit out of my pricerange.
Can rememebr if the Iocean x7 is released yet or not but again it looks nice

Actually had that phone and it really is a great phone for the money but when you look at the other not so well known brands there are better out there.

Yeah the finder 5 would be the best of the bunch, shame it's not in your range. What is it you don't like about the G3/G4? It's hard to recommend a phone otherwise!

Oh I actually like the G3,love the look of it.(apart from the plastic back but that doesn't bother me)
Its the fact I can potentially get the G4 or a similar quadcore phone for my pricerange.
Its a bit of I want my cake and eating it too but I figured I'd see if there was anything else out there

What is your price range? How about the Neo N003? (Released next month)

About 300 euros

for example

I know its not out yet but I was hoping theres something similar already out there with similar specs.
I'll check that Neo now,Haven't seen the brand come up before

Screen is a bit too big on it.Dont want it any bigger than 5" but Ideally 4.5"

That neo looks pretty much like the G4

Thanks man,I've read that also

I think out of the 4 of them I'd be going for the g4.
Cant seem to find something similar that's out at the moment though
