I know. That's just about the only thing stopping me (so far) from picking one of these up. It would just annoy me too much not having it. :disappointed:

Makes a good cheap 4g dongle with ability to call too. Hot.

That is actually a great idea. Apart from that this phone is unbelievably slow when your using it day to day.

Ah not fast track. I have a 25 pound gift code from that o2 promotion can't use the damn thing as you have to show it in the shop. Has anyone had any luck doing fast track, taking the gift code to the shop, paying for it with that and getting a refund on the payment you made online?

I'm pretty sure that would involve voiding the original transaction.....you would then effectively be purchasing again non fast track & have to pay the top up

Why not just spend a few quid extra an get a doogee x5 for £~35 which are 100% better than this junk!

Indeed! HUKD has converted thousands of people to the delights of DooGee. In fact, many former FruitPhone users are now DooGee converts :smiley:

Isn't the x5 3g only? Happy to be proven otherwise. Need something that's 4g to use as a mifi.

As long as you can wait 3 months for delivery, and accept that it's dead on arrival! In which case yes, gearbest doogee = great value!

Trouble is the x5 pro is double the price of this, and nearer triple this price if you want to have a warranty and get it in a few days, unless anyone can advise me where it's available cheaper?

X5 pro in my experience also has a terrible touch screen I find, almost unusable to type. Some other people report this so it's definitely a fault in some devices.

" Pay using fast track to avoid the £10 top up required with purchase" how do I do that?

on the argos website, you need to use the fast track option to pay before you collect. go in the store with the collection code and pin, collect the phone.
