kelvinyau asked:


CECT A8+, another so-called “Iphone Clone” from china, keeps the same compact and design of its predecessor yet manages to pack in even more features. It is the upgraded version of 599 or P168, with a slimmer appearance. The phone has a 3.2 inch display with the resolution 240 x 320px which ensures a visual display of excellent quality. The new features added on this phone are shake control and video rotation, one can “shake” for the next music or wallpaper.

If you are planning to buy the CECT A8+, you should be careful as there are two versions of A8+ on the markets, the previous version is Dual band, supports 900/1800 HZ, while the latest version is Tri-band , supports 900/1800/1900 HZ. The difference would be great, as you can’t use it in USA or Canada with the dual band cell phones.

The Good :

-    Tri Band Cell phone supports GSM 900/1800/1900 HZ.

-    Carrier free, phone is unlocked. You can use it with all carriers you like, not limited to T-mobile or AT&T.

-    Comes with the features of shake control for music player and wallpaper.

-    Long Standby time:180-240 hours.

-    3D Surround sound.

The Bad:

-    The built-in camera , CMOS, is only 1.3 Mega-Pixels.

-    Lack of stereo Bluetooth and 3G compatibility.

-    TF memory card supports only up to 2GB.
