    Is this phone a dual sim by any chance ?

    Single sim + virtual sim(esim).

    Just an FYI I managed to accidentally order two phones to port to the same SIM and they both arrived in case someone wanted to be able to order a second one for any reason.
    Both unlocked.

    Does that mean it can take 2 different sims , I have Vodafone for work and Gomo personal .

    At present I have both in my Samsung so looking for a phone that can do the same.

    Maybe soon you will be able to use e-sim here in Ireland but i think for now it is not working here with any network.

    The samsung galaxy A40 is Euro 210 on vodafone.
    When I compare the 2, the A40 appears to be better, it has a better camera etc.
    What do you think?


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,187 ✭✭✭loki7777


    Remember - better on the paper.
    Look here 3a vs a50 https://www.tomsguide.com/us/galaxy-a50-vs-pixel-3a,review-6599.html Camera isn't better
    Google only fu*** up with sd card slot(and dual sim;).

    Anyone have their order cancelled?! Was cancelled shortly after ordering...


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 957 ✭✭✭Captainsatnav


    I'm gonna hold out for black friday / cyber monday discounts on Google here - if the Pixel 4 drops to €500-ish I may stump for that altogether.

    From what network are you trying port to Vodafone?


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 5,114 ✭✭✭Pacifico


    Eir


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 9,729 ✭✭✭micks_address


    i ordered one this morning for 179... pas as you go and used 48 sim to do so...got the sim for free during the week.. had to activate to get a number but didnt have to pay anything.. if i do get the phone for 179 then it is a serious bargain.. did they publish a new deal this morning or something?

    That's an insane deal.

    Do they have a history of discounting a new phone that much straight after release? I'd be surprised if it drops much below €700.

    Well holy god, €179 would be some deal that's got to be a price error :eek:

    Considering they are saying standard price is €280, when it retails for €400 direct from Google or €500 from PC World, I'd say get it if you can! Don't expect it to hang around at that price.

    how long to get a prepay sim off Eir in the post?

    I'd nearly feel bad getting this for 180 off Vodafone.....nearly :D


    they seem to have cut prices across a load of phones now too. Might be Black friday deals??

    Iphone 64GB 7 @350 when you switch

    I ordered a SIM on Monday evening, arrived in the post Wednesday morning

    I just logged on to Vodafone website and it's showing the 3a at 279.99 with €100 off if switching. Have they reduced the price?

    Oh man, regretting this now. Anyone on the fence, this should make up your mind!


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 5,498 ✭✭✭Wheety


    Has anyone received it yet? Is it a vanilla version of Android or have Vodafone added their own apps?
