Whats wrong with your a835? Try www.3g.co.uk forums for more assistance.

I have one, and its working fine. Perhaps you have a local network issue?

The software is well slow, the "new" TODAY on 3 service has hung the phone, its as big as a brick and it keeps dropping calls, i have now got the nec e616 and its well good.

the coverage where i live is 100% for voice and video so its not network.


the a835 did look like a good phone thats why i wanted one, but the nec is by far and away a better deal and the camera is miles better.

if your still in your 14 day period i would sent it back mate

The e616 is only £99.99 on "threepay", thats a bargain for such a phone. If you ever want to upgrade its probably cheaper to change your three phone via their pay as you go scheme.

Is it? I enquired with Three about the 616 on threepay today and they said it's only available on contract for between £100 and £200, tarriff dependant. The 835 is on threepay for £99 though, is that the one you meant?

I wouldn't bother with the 616, appauling battery life, and software bugs galore, as well as being top-heavy when opened.

 

[Clown]

Yours is top heavy all the time.

Nope. In Woolies the a385 is still £149.99 but the 616 is £99.99.

Hmm, just enquired at our local woolies and the Moto price is for threepay, but £99 for the NEC is contract-only, and based on the 750 minute tariff, it can cost up to £249 on contract depending how low the talkplan. The guy said the NEC 616 isn't available on threepay til the end of next month.

Pity as I have a 606 which I HATE - the 616 would've been nice just to lose some of the bulk...

If your local woolies IS doing them for £99 on threepay I'd snap them up and get them on eBay sharpish

I take it back, was confused with model numbers. We sell the 313 on threepay for £99.99 not the 616! Sorry!
