bbko Posted August 22, 2023 Share Posted August 22, 2023 (edited) The phone carriers (DTAC, True, AIS) sell phones on their websites. And other websites like Power Buy, Big C, Tesco Lotus, Banana IT, as well as the Thai Apple/Samsung/etc. sell phones.

Often search results are not even close unless searching specific make/model. Descriptions can not be trusted and are often totally wrong. One place a brand name and then marked as no brand in another place. Half truths. Posted image/price for something totally different. Some items with no Thai - some items set to Thai. That said use often and believe a good platform - but you do have to be very careful of sellers and what you are actually buying. 5 minutes ago, mike111 said: I'm using in view a desktop browser & it keeps asking for CAPTCHA-like verifications. I have found much better log on using Google rather than directly. No problems at all now but indeed had same issues previously. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Try the Lazada app on your phone, it's easy, no smartphone? buy one, Lazada is best for that 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
observer90210 Posted August 22, 2023 Share Posted August 22, 2023 Lazada looks nice but they do not seem to carry Samsung mobiles.... Another issue is delivery as depending on the area, I would not blindly trust it. How does lazada deliver and I would rather have it delivered at a reliable pick-up point ? Any ideas, suggestions, comments or critics ? 1 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Delivery to my condo in Pattaya is excellent 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Any ideas, suggestions, comments or critics ? Not sure what you are talking about as Lazada has all kinds of Samsung phones including official Samsung dealer. This is A24 page https://www.lazada.co.th/tag/samsung-a24/? They deliver thousands of items a day directly to your home with only minor issues - you will get items or a refund. 1 1 1 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Any ideas, suggestions, comments or critics ? I've never used this option, but it's worth looking into if you can't trust the delivery in your are. Find a shipper's office in your area (Flash, Kerry, LEX, Thai Post) get their info and use their "Drop Off" option. https://sellercenter.lazada.co.th/seller/helpcenter/delivering-products-to-the-service-point-or-drop-off-point-11864.html Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Personally I wouldn't buy a phone online unless I already knew the exact model I wanted and I knew the supplier. There must be at least 20 independent mobile phone stores within 3km of my house, plus 2 (maybe more) True stores, 2 AIS stores, several within Lotus'sssss'ss and more in Tukcom and most markets. Then there are the specific Samsung, Oppio etc brand stores dotted around. I buy 5 or 6 things a month on average from Lazada (2 today), but a phone I'd want boxed, legit, new, sealed, in my hand before I parted with any money. I once bought a Samsung Galaxy Note 8 from invadeit.co.th but I knew that was the phone I wanted and I had previously spend 100s of 1000s of baht with them, so there was pretty much zero risk.

Furioso Posted August 22, 2023 Share Posted August 22, 2023 (edited) I will buy electronics on Lazada if: 1. LazMall Certified 2. 4 or 5 stars rating 3. Many items sold(at least in the hundreds) 4. On Sale(20% or more) Right now I don't see any name brand smartphones for 20%+ off on Lazada. Banana usually has good sales on smartphones. Banana now has an Oppo Reno 8 Z, over 20% off.
