It would be rude to shout it out loud I agree.

I've used one of these for 2 weeks, in between more powerful devices
It will do the job, pull your contacts from google services etc, but it is painfully slow!!!
Messaging apps take 2-5 seconds to open up. And some will just not work, like the Barclays app for example. Couldn't get on Google Music either.
So choose wisely!

Can't remember who posted it, but someone suggested disabling the Facebook app on the last deal for this phone. It worked pretty well for me.

"You're only ever one tap away from making a call, sending a text or email, taking a photo or browsing the web."
So is that literally true? I've never as an Android phone but say I was in an app, would I be one tap away from a call?

Great price but just had to return mine as it was so painfully slow and had to tap things 3 times to make it do anything. Disabled FB etc and still really really bad. This phone is 30 quid for a reason so be sure before you buy.

I've had trouble unlocking this and a vodafone smart prime.tried a few of the top sellers on eBay and none of them could find the code
Save your money and get a better spec phone this will run very slow because of its memory and out of date dual core processor also its 512 ram. ( Most phones are Quad Core or more processors now )
if you want to put apps on the phone the memory will run out quick being it only has 4gb about 2gb with operating system on it
Yes it does have a sd card slot but don't think you can move your apps across because most apps don't like being moved.
Average Spec Phones now have Quad core processors, 1GB Ram, 8GB Storage any less than that and you are asking for trouble.

Same price at Tesco with CC boost.

I think even for common use for somebody who dont actually needs too much is 1gb Ram and 8Gb Internal.
Internal 4gb mem (that means free ~2gb) wont fit anything and some apps wont move to sd card.
So its a big NO for me and I suppose even a normal user (uses viber , fb and one or two more apps) would be dissapointed!

Have had this phone now for a few days and can't wait for my other one to come back. Whatever I press it always presses the wrong keys, and it is sooooo slow! Pointless buy unless you really need a phone quickly.

Can you remember where you saw the cheap unlock, I couldn't find anything for this particular phone but I probably didn't look hard enough.
This unlock seems to be quiet popular.
