Though people have no good opinion about the China Made phones, I do have very good experience with these phones. I acquired my second China made phone. It is not because that my first China Made phone got damaged or went out of order! The reason for getting the second phone is that I couldn't manage to get the battery for it. In fact I didn't spend enough time in search of new battery. In fact I used the first mobile phone of mine as a stone to pelt it on a stray dog which was chasing one of my horses on the farm.In Spite of this the phone was intact and working without any trouble! What all happened after the pelting this phone at the Dog was the colours got reversed and the error could be rectified just by stopping the phone and removing the batteries to replace them again!
The second set which I have purchased didn't cost me much, it even didn't cost half the value of an ordinary set from a reputed brand! This phone of mine is marketed by one of the branded company in india and it comes with warranty. The looks of this phone is similar to the Blackberry phone. This phone is having dual Sim facility, the multi media is fantastic, it is having 3 megapixel Camera, Shake function, Internet browsing facility, Face book facility, Blue tooth and e-book facilities makes this phone much more attractive. This phone with 2.8" screen is having a shake function also. With all these facilities I enjoy using this phone, it is now six month since I have been using this phone and I am absolutely happy with it.I have loaded both the Sims and they are working without any problem.
How about you, have you ever possessed or possessing one of the China Made phones?What is your experience with it? Please respond, Thanks !

the first time i have my Chine phone, it was from my dad and he used it for like 1 year and it still working just fine. even if I dropped the phone It's still working. Well, that phone was bought 2007 I guess, but I used it till 2009. well its good. but today the China phones that he bought can easily break when I dropped it. unlike the first one that he bought.

Dear Mariseven you may be right today you may not be getting so sturdy models like the one you used to get previously. But your phone has given you service for a pretty good time at a lower price and I think one should pay some attention and care towards these delicate equipments to get maximum and optimum results out of it! Thanks for responding!

i never bought a chinese phone in my life!!mostly because if we consider price is true that they are really chepaer but we consider also the hardware really low wuality one..so you should put in relaton these 2 things and ma be they won't worth too much in my opinion!!I think that they are factories in china can make good devices but normally they export only copies of major brands phones which they are chepaer but at the same time really low quality so normally i would prefer he original..

Dear Tonyllenuim my point here is that we are getting so many features in a phone at unbelievably lower price.except for the outer shell which may be delicate which I have gathered from so many discussions, I never faced any problems so far. Possibly the models what I got being marketed by registered companies in India like Micromax and Gfive, I think they must be taking care of these factors! Thanks for responding!

i never bought any china phone but my friend had one and it was easily broken so she never bought a china phone again. the problem was china phones dont really have repairs shops exclusive for them like the branded ones. some repair shops will only either worsen or make it better but later on still easily broken.

May be dear Hushi, it was one of those sad stories about the bad phones, bit fortunately my both the sets are working fantastically and I am happy with them.
Yes your point about the exclusive repair shops,fortunately now in India these phones are marketed by Indian companies we don't face any such problems here.
Thanks for responding!

Dear Stylewaves, I think if minimum care is taken as with any of other electronic goods, these phones are also equally sturdy like its other Indian counterparts. On the contrary on couple of occasions the phone got slipped out of my hand and nothing has happened to it!
Like mentioned in my discussion I have used this mobile like a stone to pelt on a stray Dog and nothing happened to it!
Anyways, thanks for responding!

I bought 3 china made phones last two years ago. I gave the two to my brothers and left one for me. So far, I don't see any problem with it. It has everything I need. What I don't like about it, that can also be in any other phone, is that its keypad is hard to press. I like soft keypad because I text a lot.

Dear Paper Doll I think such simple problems can occur with any sets may it be Indian or Chinese! What all I like about these phones is the facilities and features we are getting for the small amount e are paying in for! these features are really amazing looking at the cost what we are paying. That tempts me to buy these phones! Thanks for responding!

China phones easily break. After how many months, the buttons wont work, LCD turned black, the speaker isn't working and the camera is damaged. That is why I always buy the good brands. I much like the quality and wont ever again be cheap about the price.

I think dear beeh, we need to take care of these electronic equipment. I always keep my phone in the case provided with it. I take precaution that the phone is not to get exposed to direct sunlight and I avoid to keep the phones in tight pockets. Instead I use the case which can be attached to waist belt.I never had any problem with my china phone so far.Though this set is not so old but the previous one is also working fantastically even today and I found no problem with the set.Like I mentioned I used the phone as a stone to pelt it on a stray Dog and I found that the phone was working quite OK in spite of that!
Well may be you had a bad luck to have received one of that bad pieces. Thanks for responding and all the best!
