I predicted at the start of the year that we would see a flood of cheap good Chinese Android phones on the market this year. But I honestly wasn't expecting this good this soon.
Who in their right mind in the UK would buy a candy-bar feature phone now? As for all those people desperately trying to save up for an iPhone.......
I'm in London in two weeks time. I think I'l be coming back with at least one of these. Would make for some very unexpected Christmas presents. Or maybe a birthday present for a young man who is dying to get his first phone.
