nikster Posted June 19, 2014 Share Posted June 19, 2014 Saw these recently in the AIS store. Good looking 4" and 4.5" Android phones - they look like they'd be 10k baht, but they cost only 1700 and 2700. Why are they so cheap? What's the catch.

nikster Posted June 23, 2014 Author Share Posted June 23, 2014 (edited) Cheap specifications. Partially subsidized by AIS. Sent from my XT1032 using Thaivisa Connect Thailand mobile app Hm - does that mean I need to get an AIS SIM to use it with? Or can I just use it with my existing True sim Might be cheap specs but honestly this is a far cry from what one could buy for much more money last year. I remember looking at a 5,000 Baht Samsung phone with a teeny tiny and a barely working Android version just last year. I tried the Lava phone, it seems to work well. And it has a big screen too.

casualbiker Posted June 23, 2014 Share Posted June 23, 2014 It will not work on the 850mhz 3g that True is mainly using .. it is a 900/2100 MHz phone Sent from my XT1032 using Thaivisa Connect Thailand mobile app Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dddave Posted June 25, 2014 Share Posted June 25, 2014 They come with a free AIS sim and one month of service but are not useable on the TRUE band. A friend who still liked her old Blackberry but wanted to try a smartphone and have access to LINE bought one (the one that looks similar to the HTC-1) and it seems to be ok. Very plasticy build quality and limited RAM but for the money, not a bad deal. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nev Posted June 26, 2014 Share Posted June 26, 2014 Why not buy a Asus zenphone4 4 inch screen, only around 3000baht, i have one for the money a great little phone and dual sim and can use with all networks, you can buy from BigC. They come in zenphone5 and zenphone6, which are the 5 inch and 6 inch versions. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
