Sweet Deal On A New Android Smartphone 4000 Baht?

[pgrin]

Coming back to Thailand after 2 year absence. Lived in Phuket for 5 years and used CAT Aircard and was happy with that. Now I have purchased http://www.expansys-...nlocked-233121/ for about 4000 Baht. I plan to use True move H SIM card for internet access around Bangkok and Korat. The phone holds 2 SIM cards but I don't think I'll need to use that function. I would like to use the phone as WIFI hotspot for my computer as well. Any idea about the price of Android smartphones with these kind of specs sold in Thailand? Any problems tethering to other devices using Truemove H. Any better mobile internet options.

Thanks

It looks a nice phone , but I can't see the 3G frequancy for TrueMove-H ( 850Mhz ) ?

Communications: SIM 1 - GSM (850, 900, 1800, 1900MHz) WCDMA (900, 1900, 2100MHz) / SIM 2 - GSM (850, 900, 1800, 1900MHz)

I don't understand. You say true move H needs 850 band then you quote the specs for my phone that includes 850 band. Am I missing something? The phone I bought has a 3.5 inch screen. What are the specs on the one from Lotus? I'll check that one out when I arrive,

Thanks P

850mhz only for edge, not for 3G, not suitable for your use.

its the 3G where you need 850MHz , WCDMA (900, 1900, 2100MHz) your phone can only use 3G from AIS or TOT .

hope this helps

It is Huawei U8180.

For some reason the only phones that work 3G with true are listed here http://www3.truecorp...veh/shopping/11

PS. I am sure others "no name" also work but would have to have same or similar specs.

I had HTC Desire which did not work
