Since a long time, I longed to own one of those flashy chinese / korean mobile phones and finally bought ALFATEL H1i last week. As I bought from a newly opened shop, the seller gave a 2GB micro SD card free, total cost of mobile was 2700Rs.
After researching a long time on Chinese mobiles which were found to be cheap and packed with many features, I finalized on Alfatel. Now initially I would like to advise that Chinese mobiles do not exactly come with all features, only the lights, outside look are flashy, but in the inside they dont even support java, symbian or other platforms making it impossible for you to add new games, themes, applications. All you can change is songs and pictures and take photos.
Now I will mention the full technical specifications at the end of this review, for time being I will mention the major positive features of this Chinese mobile, which is very cheap as compared with other touch screen mobiles, of branded companies.
MAJOR FEATURES, which you cant get for 2700 in any branded phone.
DUAL SIM
DUAL STANDBY
VERY STRONG LED TORCH
GOOD SOUND OUTPUT
TOUCH SCREEN
BLUETOOTH
DUAL BATTERIES (but daily you cant keep on changing batteries)
NOKIA CHARGER, BATTERY compatible (in case of malfunction, easily available)
USB Charging , and through USB cable you can use the Phone as Pen Drive and add, delete songs, pictures.
SHAKE CONTROL / MOTION CONTROL
3 type of alarms
Automatically you can schedule switch on and off of mobile, a useful feature, you can schedule mobile to switch off at night 10 and switch on at morning 5 daily or at any time.
Advanced security locks for messages, phonebook,
CONS:
Cant install any type of applications, games, softwares.
So in total the phone is a total steal for the money given.
