Three GSM SIM Cards Cell Phone - Why Double If You Can Have Threesome?

Sponsored Links

While searching for a dual-mode cell phone (yes, I want one with both GSM and CDMA ready), I found out that three sim-cards handset is even existed! Fortunately, they aren’t expensive, since all of the threesome phone I can find — X668, X728, and ZTC 830 — are manufactured by some China-based company. The bad news, you can’t expect high-end features inside as only the standard communication and multimedia capabilities are included. Now let’s check the detail one by one, shall we?


X668 Cell Phone

Supporting dual-band GSM (900/1800), X668 cell phone sports a 3-inch touchscreen display with a resolution of 176 x 220 and handwriting recognition, an integrated 1.3 megapixel camera module, polyphonic ringtone, SMS/MMS, and a built-in MP3/MP4 player. It doesn’t have free onboard memory, but it does come with TransFlash card slot (256MB card included), allowing users to store their data or media files externally. Regarding battery, it can last for up to 72 hours standby time or up to 8 hours talk time.

X668 cell phone is currently retailed for $144.97.

X728 Cell Phone

To make a long story short, just add a Bluetooth 2.0 functionality to X668, and you’ll get X728 cell phone. The design is slighly better too. But for that small enhancement, you have to take $155.25 out of your pocket.

ZTC 830 Cell Phone

ZTC 830 has almost similar specs than above model, X728. It has Bluetooth, dual-band GSM support, media player, Transflash media card slot, touchscreen, etc. However, this phone, priced at $162, is the most beautiful one on the trio, IMHO.

Conclusion

Honestly, I don’t have any experience with “made-in China” handset. I know that I can’t expect much after-sales support for the product, but my main awareness is whether the phone would last long or not. Anybody want to share their experience?

    Hi

    I have been using and dual sim card mobile phone for last 6 months.. model D66+. There is no problem with the phone. Only thing is that it is a 2G phone, u cannot have video chat, advanced PDA functions etc. It does not come with Windows O/S.

    Now for last three months I am importing and distributing this model in Kuwait and received well by customers. I have my own support center to take care of after sale of chinese phones.

    These phones are worth buying.

    I am based in Nigeria and would like to know if shipping is posible, if yes, please send me pictures of the phone and the total amount it will cost to get it down (in US dollars please).

    I`ll be expecting a reply from you soonest.
