    Seen this phone online have to say I am impressed with it.

    From what I can gather the reviews on the site itself are pretty good and genuine.

    It is a great phone and the spec is amazing This link says it only has a 3mp on the back and 2mp on the front.

    But on loads of other sites it says it is 5mp on the back...

    Regarding the Price its awkward depending where you ship it from either Germany or Hong Kong the prices changes.

    Plus you do not want to get caught out by irish customs if they stopped it but there is always that chance if you ship outside Europe.

    Depending where you order it from the price changes.

    Best of luck...please leave comments if you if you get on o.k with this site.

    Lack of RAM can be a serious PITA when updating apps.

    I have a phone with 1Gb RAM and I frequently get "out of memory" messages especially with Chrome and larger app updates.

    The new Vodafone Smart 4 Mini seems to be getting good reviews for similar money (or less if switching) and I'd definitely consider one quicker than a generic Chinese offering

    ouch good point....never thought of that...you will have to flash it to get it working again...as in load the firmware again...dont ask me how to do that no idea.

    But as for the password...might just stay clear of them now.

    Maybe you slept walked and put a lock on it and the next morning you forgot the code...

    I would love to know if this http://en.comebuy.com is reliable or a big scam.

    the shipping scares me big time.

    because of the customs authority and stopping items comings in.

    No customs or other crack like that. Its shipped from Germany, which, as you too well know, is in the EU.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 775 ✭✭✭roboshatner


    But there is options...on the page saying either ship it from germany or hong kong....

    so if I pick hong kong will it ship from germany ?

    No.You have to pick Warehouse in Germany. And you will then notice that the price goes up to $91:D.

    Personally I would'nt buy that phone. Go for the Cubot One if your budget scan stretch that far.

    Yeah I do agree...its like getting a magnum ice cream in space but it says something different on it but looks and tastes the same.

    What plug comes with these phones ?

    or will I have to get a adapter or can I just charge it threw a plug usb adapter ?

    and after looking at that site and as you said the price goes up.

    I have decided to order from amazon...safer and at least if it doesnt come in the post they will post it again.

    at least you have some sort of come back.
