[dundee] cheap android phone pay&go

Tue Nov 16 22:00:25 UTC 2010

Hi Iain,

It's definitely a good buy - grab one (or two) while you can!

I can see this as being the most commonly modded phones out there for the next few months/years. There are alpha 2.2 ROMs for it already - expect the number of ROMs to explode shortly :)

Regards,
Sean McRobbie

So Sean, 

Would you say it’s a good buy then ? 

I’ve got a Samsung galaxy s with android 2.2 on it now, but don’t really want to muck it up routing etc as it’s my main phone. 

Was thinking of getting the orange san fran as a test/destroy phone lol

Got myself one of these this afternoon, remarkably good for the money. I'm honestly waiting for something to go horribly wrong, for £99 there has to be a catch.

Phone arrived safe and sound on Wednesday. Unlock code for $3 from nckcodes.co.uk worked a dream. 

As a first time Android user I have to say I am really impressed with this device. It's quite nippy and feature packed not something you'd expect for £80~90. 

I thought I'd take bad to using an on-screen keyboard versus qwerty however I picked it up within minutes and find it's actually faster for some reason (I guess because on my old phone it would sit and think a while before printing anything on the screen?). Having used a Desire HD it feels much easier to operate the touch screen however obviously it's no comparison power wise. 

Highly recommend this device/deal for both first time and existing Android users. 

Let the hacking begin...

Ah I thought they were credit card only thanks for what someone said on a forum. Fantastic - will try this out when I get the phone and let you know how I get on with the phone itself. Seems to get good reviews definitely a bargain!

if you phone orange they will give you unlock code but its more likely £20.
