  • Unless LTE is the issue, the Ufone Smart U5a has exceeded my expectations at 6,999/- the specs are much better than this Zong phone apart from LTE of course but then its about 10,000 cheaper.

  • Z8 by qmobile is best. no doubt we have to spend 3k more but in return it’ll give us plenty of exciting features especially a 2GB ram and HD display

  • WTF !!! aray bhai kya hum gaa’un (village) se aaey hein, hamein market ka ilm nahi? is price mein is se kaheen behter phone lay saktay hein.
