phuket Mike Posted August 13, 2011 Share Posted August 13, 2011 I have a Wildfire which I bought here in Thailand for 8900 baht a few months ago, it's now 7900 baht because is S is here now. I would go for a Wildfire with an AIS 3G sim, it doesn't work everywhere on 3G but drops back to Edge. DTAC Edge is painfully slow where I an at least (Southern Thailand). USB Tethering is very easy and works out of the box. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Which one do i puy the 900/1200 or the 850/2100. How does it work exactly? Maybe get the cheaper original wildfire on 900/2100? Is it the same ? Just as good? What about samsung galaxy ace? That seems to work on Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tw25rw Posted August 24, 2011 Share Posted August 24, 2011 I just stopped using my Wildfire after about 6 weeks as it was so slow and had so little memory. I rapidly came to hate the thing.. I'm sure you can get better for similar money.. I now use a Galaxy S2 which is a different kettle of fish entirely... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
