QUOTE(123joe @ Feb 25 2014, 07:24 PM) if you can bear the warranty. :-) nice information. if that so, i need to wipe this item from my list. huawei g700 only. no other phone try to compete. so sad. 5" below phone, dual sim, 2gb ram. (big battery is a bonus) Warranty also not an issue, just a lot logistic company not accept mobile phone shipment. Now about RM650 with shipping to malaysia, possible wait it drop till RM600 then can order already

Majority online seller such like those in taobao will usually mark up selling price by around 100 to 200 yuan, which make the phone minimum at around 1.1 - 1.2k yuan Unless you could get it directly through vmall or authorized web reseller at default price and get someone to bring it back to Malaysia, else I dont think rm600 is kinda possible.

Why put a big a$$ HONOR logo at the back . Hopefully they'll use the huawei logo as it's more well known than honor.

This is because honor no longer a series under huawei, but a new branding which focus on internet sales like hongmi. A same phone will price differently when branded with huawei or honor, where mediapad x1 & honor x1 will be a good example

Not sure there will actually be one or not, even if it will, wcdma version will usually price slight higher. If you really interested on the phone, best order it online instead of endless wait. RM600+ for a quad core with 2gb ram is kinda reasonable to be honest.

Still in processing since its stated a 15 days processing duration. I not too worry bout it since it will arrive as it should Its not bout patience but getting what you need at the right timing as phone changes are rapid. If forever waiting for the best deal, in the end most likely will end up getting nothing , but also good as you could save back some cash

QUOTE(timeonce @ Apr 5 2014, 06:23 PM) Anyone got this phone already. Saw the spec and seem good contender with Moto G but android jelly bean. I don't actually think there very big difference on jelly bean vs kit kat la, as honor 3c already had 2gb ram by default. This phone is basically an updated g700 at a lower price point, which you could get it online for 195 USD with shipping. Reason it's not popular due to no official channel available for it in local, where the only source to obtain one is through online channel. And thanks to the fierce price war now in China for offering Octa core at sub 1k yuan, this make honor 3c spec not that attractive anymore. With the same pricing, you could now get coolpad halo f1, Octa core 1.7ghz with 2gb ram and 8gb ROM, 5 inch ltps gorilla glass, 13 & 5 mp combo cam.

QUOTE(umcai @ Apr 6 2014, 12:41 PM) This video is kinda dated already, and the major comparison is actually hongmi and honor 3c, where the coolpad f1 use is still an engineering sample. Also in terms of performance, coolpad f1 shouldnt be put together with the other 2, even though the pricing is similar during that stage. It should be use to compare to the honor 3x play edition and hongmi note. But since its wcdma version make appearance 1st, its already scoring compare to the other 2.
