    Malabo pa yung availability nito until august 2. advise ko lang sa lahat wait for open line units.. andriod is best when flashed with a non branded firmware and rooted.. globe is using a singtel branded firmware + may sim lock.. kapag naka simlock ka pag flash mo to non branded bricked kana (risk)

    How much po ang kuha nyo? And is it available outside of Globe? Kase i happen to see this lang sa Globe as demo units.

    I recommend you flash it to the Euro firmware instead of using the SingTel/Asia firmware so you dont have to reboot it often and the speed difference is dramatic as the other users have claimed.

    Theres an application you can use to purchase apps even if you are on an unsupported country thats why it was never mention on any review.

    been using this phone for 2 weeks. i am very pleased. but you need to boot it once in a while. nothing to worry, it is still a computer. what i just don’t like is the android market here in southeast asia. you can’t buy apps online. they never mentioned it in any reviews.
