World War 2 was won by Saturn and chocolate is formed by mixing sodium carbonate with dragon scales.

Sorry I thought since you were making up mindless nonsense then I might as well join in.

Well technically it is gold, didn't you read the description. Although other colours are available.

With the exception of GiffGaff, I honestly can't understand why anyone would still be using O2 in 2016.

Just off hand, how do you find it? is it cumbersome, and do you think it is a worthy upgrade on an LG G3?

Idk if anyone mentioned it, but faster shipping (ie. not standard) will most likely accrue fees/taxes of around 20%, so careful

Went for the Mi Max for 148 via Geekbuying over this, just seems like extra phone for the money

However this is a fantastic deal for those who want a smaller than 6' screen, but still with good specs at dirt cheap

I would personally invest in the extra RAM and storage for a little more, get the 3GB, but that is more money, of course

Thanks OP, I was sorely tempted :smiley:

Yep, chinese phones come with descriptions like this (taken from the very page you linked to):
"Metal Texture with Original Feeling

It looks so beautiful!
You should feel it in your hand."

"Offering all what we have craved for."

"Display
5.5”full HD
1920x1080,403PPI
Supporting sun display,you can see image clearly under strong sunlight
Supporting night display"

"Touching Camera and Wonderful Trop"

"MIUI 8
Beautiful new system for beautiful
new samrt phone"

"Declaration:We will declare it as a lower price, but it is also necessary for you to pay tax if needed, we are not responsible for custom duty tax
Gifts:We do not accept disputes about free gifts, please be kind to understand it"

Love the way you posted a phone with no specs... is this the 32GB version?
The Chinese seller also manages to avoid disclosing that info...

How long does delivery usually take from that supplier? Is there any security concerns with this phone and banking apps?

I can't even get 3g in my house, but it doesn't bother me as I use Wi-Fi when I'm at home.

You can run into viruses and app compatibility issues on any of the devices that you just mentioned.

Incidentally I once had an iPhone but it was bricked by an official iOS update. It wasn't even a week out of warranty and Apple wanted £260 to fix it. Where was the peace of mind that you mentioned then?

There are decent Samsung, LG, One plus, Huawei, HTC phones which are made for UK and come with manufacturers warranty. IPhone is expensive but comes with warranty and peace of mind as well. No need to waste time messing around with viruses and Chinese roms or banking apps not working.

Let me guess, you would recommend an iPhone.

Just because, I am telling the truth, I am trolling. You are selling Chinese rubbish here. If it was a decent phone, from a UK seller, I would had no problem voting it hot. But messing people around by selling foreign rubbish is just plain greed. ​

Getting back to the original thread, the phone itself is great, but this is not a great price.

Get the "enhanced" version if you Band 20 / O2 LTE compatibility.
Go for the Global ROM version, unless you're comfortable installing your own ROM.
3gb/32gb over the 2gb/16gb

Better prices here:

Brains and knowledge definitely not your strongpoint.....

Trolling and ignorance though, you get an A+ for that.

These Chinese phones are like mini tablets. To make them work as a phone is a gamble.

That is why there is no UK warranty, does not work correctly with UK networks , may come with viruses already installed. ​

Not had any issues using mine for calls/data on 3UK in the few months I've had it. I don't think band 20 (800MHz) is a necessity unless you're trying to use 3's VoLTE HD calling "supervoice". Can't say anything for other networks.

Also Android Nougat has been ported to this and its almost completely stable.

I have the 32gb/3gb ram version in gold. Running Xiaomi Developer Global Rom - its bootloader unlocked and I have TWRP installed.

Phone is stable and I get 2 or 3 days battery life. It's fast and sleek - all round really happy with it. Only gripe is the camera could be better.

I like MIUI 8 but some may prefer vanilla Android in Cyanogen Mod or Resurrection Remix.

​have you got a link please, can only see its $149.99 in the coming sale

thanks

​just like every other company

does this comes with google play?

I notice they list this phone as pro prime, they've definitely made prime models in the past, but not seen a pro prime model, is it the correct name for the phone or one that isn't yet listed on device specifications? This is the closest spec I can find and might be the same phone >

​Like you selling Chinese **** here like it was gold

Tesco 4g is the same as O2

I get 80Mb/40Mb 4G connection from EE on my phone and I live in a sh:tty lincolnshire town, I also have EE Broadband which is 40Mb/20Mb and they upped my 4G 4GB data allowance on my mobile to 10GB a month because I moved from Sky Broadband to EE broadband, so far couldn't be happier with EE.

absolutely brilliant phone. got the 32gb version to replace my galaxy note 2 about 6 months ago. No regrets at all.everything works perfect. Best thing battery last me about 3 days.

is this upgradeable to MM?

states "OS MIUI 7 (Based on Android 5.1) " on site

​And the same band that Vodafone use for a large amount of their 4g

tesco £5 pm very happy kids phones all capped

CS is poo from all of them. I don't think there's much difference between any of them. They are all more interested in profit margins than reinvesting in infrastructure.

Worth noting this version isn't compatible with O2 4G or any of it's MVNOs (giffgaff, Tesco, etc).

2 or 3 GB version?

Not going to argue there. That's the network that I hate the most.

No worse than EE CS. at least o2 don't charge you to speak to someone in less than an hour.

Plus, o2 priority rewards are brilliant use for some. Skipping queues at gigs is a huge bonus :smiley:

Their ridiculously overpriced and their customer service is poo. That's just two reasons from the top of my head.

What's wrong with o2?

I can't get a 4G signal with anyone else in my house.
