Fully agree. I don't care much about games. Have lots of mp3 songs that I store in SD. Lots of apps too, stored in SD. So H3C is ideal for me. However I m thinking of buying 1s for my mum cos she's upgrading from an old non-smart phone. Will probably get mipad, too, for reading PDF mags.

Seems so much easier to get the 1s now. Just secured 1 unit just now. Power banks bought last week, still awaiting deliveries.

You r right. I bought H3C long time ago, was much easier to get.
Now just buying 1s for someone.

Bought 1s for my mum but she don't want. Who wants pls PM me within 12 hrs. Otherwise will let it lapse.

Did they call u before they deliver? I got a couple of missed calls from 03-xxx...not sure who called.

Nothing to do with home/office address. Mine is home add still waiting... ordered 2 PBs last Tues... and today is Wed...more than 1 week... sigh! And I live within KL area.

Reading some of the comments here it's like buying a Proton and expecting it to perform like a BMW.

Received my 1s yesterday. Surprised they do delivery on a Sat, by a guy in a pte car?

After playing with the phone for a day, I can tell you the issues with it.

The choice of languages in the phone (local M'sian version) is limited to: US English, UK English, Melayu and Chinese. So if you are intending to buy this phone as a gift for an overseas friend, forget it.

In the Honor 3C, there is a staggering choice of 44 languages, including Arabic, French, Spanish, Vietnamese and so on.

I have decided to move my comments to H3C thread. Kindly refer there. Thanks.

I think the whole point of a discussion thread is to talk about the pros and cons of the product without getting overly defensive when someone points out some issues.

I have bought mi3, 1s and H3c. Will most likely buy mipad when it comes out (and maybe Redmi Note since someone pointed out to me that it has multi-language options). Already bought iPad & ipod touch btw. I would say all the models have pros & cons.

I think its fair to compare products within a similar price bracket, with +/- RM100 being a reasonable range. Someone may say, oh why not top up 1,500 for an iphone, I think that's just the fool talking without sense.

Within the 419-519 price range, there is 1s, Redmi Note & H3c.
Within 499 - 599 price range, there is H3c, Redmi Note & maybe one of the Asus Zenfones. What else is there?

For me, 1s with Snapdragon sounds good technically. In real-life performance it falls short of the H3c, especially in terms of features...so many to name... but this is a 1s thread so I shall not mention them here.

The real question is, are the additional features worth the extra RM80 for another phone? That is a question only YOU can answer.

However, if some day the 1s come with 2GB ram and multi-language options, I would not hesitate to get a few more units.

Peace!

Think I might just get Zenfone 4 just to play play. Thanks for the headsup.

Just bought Zenfone 4 yesterday, RM299.
Pretty surprised by it. Android works as it should. But screen res nothing to shout about.
