1266953 2012-06-05 02:24:00 Thought of going second-hand?
Thought about it, but would prefer to buy in store. Would love either a defy plus or a huawei g300. The g300 is only selling for $300 so is a pretty good deal.

1266954 2012-06-12 00:11:00 Ok, one last question before I buy. Does the Huawei g300 have DLNA?

Thanks for bearing with me guys.

1266956 2012-06-12 04:36:00 Apparently, yes.
Thanks Chill, I looked at the reviews on the usual sites, but couldn't find an answer. Must be going blind :D. Now I'll just look for a good deal and then happliy consign my 858 to the bin.

Yup, I've used it (haven't owned it, someone I know has it though.) For the price, its not that great. The screen is pretty low res and the processor is not that great. Something like the huawei g300 would be better than the ace or ace plus.

1266959 2012-06-17 04:08:00 For the price, its not that great. Any other machine worthwhile checking out in that price range ? notechyet (4479)
1266960 2012-06-17 05:38:00 well, in the under 300 range I would only recommend the huawei g300, Its the one I'm thinking of getting. But, maybe the sony ray? Or for the price, the hauwei x5 is great value, saying it can be had for $160 if you look around.

If you're cool with buying online, the one v, defy plus, or optimus black can all be found for around 350.

1266961 2012-06-17 06:00:00 How much smartphones improvement do you get for when the machines are approx. 1/2 k? notechyet (4479)
1266962 2012-06-17 08:15:00 How much smart phones improvement do you get for when the machines are approx. 1/2 k?
Quite a bit. For a touch under $500 you can get a sony arc s online. On fairbuy you can get a galaxy nexus for $580.

EDIT. you can also get the lg optimus 2x for under 400 on fairbuy.
