Mass produced in china, cheap as chips like anything made there but with out the glossy big brand price tag, they don't have wifi or 3g and don't support java but have a quite a lot of features for the money.

They could have at least spelt 'RESOLUTION' correct on the back :rofl:

Definitely a big time Chinese rip off - huge copy of the Sony Vaio logo on the back proves it ( I doubt anyone from Sony knows this company even exists) If all you need is a phone then this would do the trick but the quality of the electronics could fail at any point so don't be surprised if it goes pop after 2 months!!

:slap:

they are what is know in the industry as 'FAKE IPHONES' due to the looks and icons they use on the screen, will do the job but dont expect too much, the writeup makes it look brilliant but the parts they use are very cheap and the software very buggy that will slow down and crash the more you try to get out of the handset.

Ah right, thanks for the explanations fella's. :)

Theres lots of these phones on ebay, apartently they don't work in the UK.

They use the same bands as the UK networks so should be ok, but only GSM so not ideal for internet usage as quite slow.

hmm... very tempting

The memory is always a lie. Believe me, I know.

 

Once on a trip to China, bought a '2Gb' ipod Nano that actually had 100Mb!!!

 

Also bought a '16Gb' iPhone recently that actually had 4Gb.

 

Lesson; stay away.

lol look at the pic of it on the keyboard, the screen is upside down ;)

I think thats a feature, you can rotate the screen 180 degrees.

i've had a couple of these chinese phones & they are cheap with lots more gadgets than u would get for £30 in phones 4 you but as peeps have stated they are not the best, the dual sim function is very good i had my orange sim & my o2 sim in the same phone & u can make & recieve calls from either no problem..good if u got seperate work number etc!!

 

but there is a few quirks they have for instance: if your number is stored starting 07***** then when you recieve a call the callers name will display but not when they txt? & the opposite if you have the number stored as +44****** does my head in but still better than a £30 pay as u go from the shops imho!
