Is this problem bad enough to walk away from getting it then?
How is that possible? Please correct me if I am wrong but in gsm mode I guess only 2G is possible...
The phone is the best value for money proposition out there. If you are happy with the big screen local brands, your choices.
I'm typing from one. No problems whatsoever. I get coverage at places where the little neo V failed.
Get it while you can. Going out of stock everywhere.
Yes. If the network mode is set to GSM Only, the phone will work only on 2G networks.
