On 10 May 16:54 Mustafa wrote Nice, except "engineered with materials used in the latest high performance running shoes which make it look good on and off the court." doesn't really sound right. I don't want to think of my rugged phone as half a pair of shoes. And they must really be stupid to put in the horrible 208x208 screen, that should be left for loooooooooooow end, what ever happened to S403rd edition QVGA screen? Or was the 208x208 a stupid decision and they ordered/manufactured too many. Otherwise I think its a neat little phone. On 10 May 16:07 LuqmanAli wrote It's a great set. But we can't do video calling becuase it have no front camera. On 10 May 16:03 UsmanGhani wrote It'a a smart phone. I want to buy it. |
