Sizde uygun görürseniz, "THL W7+" telefonla değiştirmek istiyorum. Ne kadar para farkı varsa ödeyeceğim.
Ayrıca "THL W5 " telefon elinize ulaştığında bana mail atın. Yeni bir "THLW7+" daha almak istiyorum.
Yani bana iki tane yeni "THLW7+" gönderecek siniz.
Şimdi bana "THL W5" göndereceğim adresi bildirin. Kargo bedelini kendim ödeyecegim. Telefonu size göndereyim.

- Hi, I am interested in the new phone W7. I already own the W3 which I use in Canada. It works well but the signal indicator shows up as roaming service even in local areas with a local Fido sim card. My question is will the W7 have the same problem as the W3? It makes me confused when the service will really charge roaming or not.
Just want to make clear the new phone feature.
Thank you - hi,
about the roaming service is depending on your local sim card service,maybe you can ask for help from those who support your sim card .
and the Thl W7+ is the W3+ upgrate version,please check the link about Thl W7+ feature:http://www.thlmobilestore.com/thl-w7-android-4-0-mtk6577-5-7-inch-hd-ips-screen-1g-ram-3g-gps-3-2mp-front-camera.html

- It is a beautiful Phone Review by Jobby
-
i checked all the reviews before buying as I didnt want to be an idiot in front of my friends, buying a dud. Since the phone arrived everybody goes wow. the phones screen is awesome and the feel of the phone is really good. The quad core is super powerful and after showing everyone at work they all want one. the battery life is fine and I have a spare. This is a great phone and camera and video machine at a fantastic price. Guys I am very impressed (Posted on 6/9/13)Star - a lot more fun Review by Carina
-
I researched before I bought. I like this phone so much . I like the quality of camera in it , there is more screen, more power, more apps, and just a lot more fun. I dont know all that it can do yet but I love finding out new things on a daily basis. (Posted on 3/29/13)Star - I love this phone in so many ways Review by Joan
-
I love this phone in so many ways,super fast, lots of fun and great features.Star
Pros:
Better, clearer reception
Large, bright, sharp screen
Responsive touch functionality
Price vs Contract phones
Phone feels solid
Android 4.0 ICS
Cons:
Phone's actually a little heavy (but sturdy feeling)
Very proud of my phone choice and the super fast delivery was a bonus. (Posted on 3/23/13) - Best phone Review by Dave
-
Buy this phone and get the $25 dollar a month service that includes unlimited text and data. I installed the unlocked version of Skype (ver. 1.0.0538) with unlimited US calling for $2.99/month. Also install Quick Settings for easy control of the phone and an awesome wifi Hotspot (superfast connection allows you to even watch movies on your laptop). You'll love using Pandora on it and the Google Maps with GPS is pretty super easy to use. Big bonus is the voice feature through Google that allow you to do things as varied as voice searching to verbally entering text messages, emails or even making commands to call, email and text. Buy this phone. Make sure you buy a car charger too because all that fun comes at a price. Buy it! Google Android is awesome. (Posted on 2/26/13)Star - I like the phone Review by Emily

Overall I like the phone-- my boyfriend bought his first and so I got to "test-drive" it for a few days first. The controls are pretty intuitive, and the Swype app is awesome for text. I can even compose full emails on the phone (albeit slower than on a keyboard). The screen appears to be self-healing? In any case, it has survived several weeks tossed in my purse without a case with nary a scratch. Impressive.Star
Three notes of caution-- it has a small internal storage space. That can be remedied by buying a larger SD card and moving everything you can to that (there's an app that can help you with that). Or you can root your phone and move *everything* to the SD card.
Also, the phone as it is out of the box is not Flash-compatible. It will play YouTube videos through the YouTube app, but not videos on stand-alone sites. This appears to be solved when you root it, as well.
Finally, this is really a data-focused phone. Talking on it makes you sound like you're in a tin can (though it also has something to do with the phone you're calling). Most of the plans are talk-minimum and data-heavy anyway, but just be forewarned. My mother complains about it whenever I call her (but no one else seems to have noticed, hmmm...).

I recommend this phone 5***** (Posted on 1/26/13) - This phone is great Review by Henry

I have never had a cell phone plan, and I don't plan on having one any time soon. When I first started using cell phones, the curse of prepaid services were the phones. Companies like Net10 had fantastic deals, but the phones were always cheap and disposable, which of course is the great part about prepaid service. I'm not stuck with a phone for two years and if I need one, I'm not worrying about the price.Star
The touch screen: Nimble! Going from screen to screen is fluid, transitions are visible. For every single touch and swipe, the device is right there with you. There is no lag to be found.
Screen resolution: High quality but with the plastic front, it cheapens the device. However, I am not complaining. Zooming in and out on a webpage, you might notice that it's a little pixelated when you get close to the text.
3G capabilities: Testing this against my friend's iPhone, it's very fast. I was incredibly surprised by the responsiveness and how quick I could go from webpage to webpage. But, I will say that there are times there is absolutely no service. After looking through forums, one easy way to fix this is by activating the phone again. I did this once, and it helped tremendously.
App store: Although it's not as big as Apple's app store, it has everything one would need. The great thing about Android is that if there's something you don't like, you can change it. Widgets are absolutely one of the best features about Android's app store. You can even change the web browser if you don't like it!
Navigation: A dream. It works better than my Garmin, the voice is loud and concise. I will say that after plugging it into my auxillary connector that it does sound a little muffled. But I'm not disappointed at all. The maps are amazing. There was one time the directions were a little funky and another that it was taking a while to acquire satellite.
Camera quality: I have to say, the quality of the camera is amazing. With auto focus, it's great. And with the camera apps, you can create some great effects.
Overall, this phone is a great value. I talk a lot, so I use the unlimited everything plan for $60.00.
Update:
I love this phone. It has efficiently replaced my iPod and GPS Navigator. Apps like Double Twist make music listening a great experience (and for $4.99, you can sync your music wirelessly, listen to radio stations, AND podcasts)
If your car as an auxillary connector or even a tape adapter, connect your phone, and you can listen to Navigation WHILE listening to music. I know it's a weird thing to obsess about, but I always thought it was one or the other. Directions are precise, so I'm not constantly looking at my phone wondering where I am.
The Android App Market has everything you're looking for as long as you know how to search. I would recommend joining forums, because that's how I found out about different apps. One I love in particular is the WiFi Hotspot widget. With a simple click, you can connect your laptop and computer to the phone's 3g network. Other apps like Car Home allow you to travel and easily find navigation, music, and manage what apps you need on the go.
Depending on where I am, Youtube can lag a little. I expected this. But for the price and the fact that I have completely replaced a few gadgets I own, this is totally worth it.
FINAL UPDATE:
I have had this phone for five months, and I thought I would give my final impressions of the device.
First off, the battery life isn't amazing, but I've found that turning off data while I don't use it is really helpful. The phone lasts for days. If I need to check something online, I quickly go into my settings, turn it on, and check what I need to check. Before I started doing that, I realized that the phone would last MAYBE six or seven hours.
Web browsing has actually gotten a lot better. I was a little worried after three months in. There were times I couldn't get on a web page at all, but I feel that the problem has been resolved.
GPS is still reliable and better than my Garmin.
I actually no longer use this phone as an mp3 player. Even with Double Tap, I felt that it lacked organization.
This phone is really your best bet if you're on a budget yet want to experience a midrange smart phone. Does it have the capabilities of an iPhone or Droid? It's actually pretty close and for the price, I can't complain. $60.00 a month for unlimited everything and a quality phone is fantastic. If I decide I never want to see this phone or this company again, I'm not forced to pay a fee for having a choice. I can easily go online and cancel my services, and I'm not waiting on the phone to speak to a representative. In the five years I've used prepaid phones, I've never had to speak to one person regarding my phone, terms of service, etc. That alone is worth the price in saved time and frustration.
A DEAD PHONE:
So, my phone died after days of being unable to hold a charge. I'm not sure what the problem was. I had to keep it connected at all times, or it wouldn't turn on. Then even while it was connected, it just died. It's a shame, because I truly loved the phone and was sold on Android until I experienced numerous problems with the device. Don't get me wrong. I love Android and their innovation. However, I seem to notice that while their phones are amazing devices at first, they cannot stand the test of time. I was looking forward to keeping this phone for quite a while. (Posted on 1/24/13) - it is worth the price Review by Benjamin

I decided to take the plunge and purchase a smartphone. After a lot of research, it is worth the price. Since it runs on Droid software you have access to all the Droid apps. The wifi ability is simply amazing. Anywhere I go that has a wifi connection the phone will automatically use my wifi connection so that I don't use the data from my data plan, not to mention it's faster. I can also make calls through my wifi! The resolution is excellent, the sound quality is very clear, although I must admit that the iPod/iPhone does have a slightly better sound.Star
After owning this phone for almost 5 months I thought I would throw in an update that I felt people should know about. I love this phone, however, after owning it for awhile I did come across 1 issue that bugs me. The screen size is just a hair different than most smartphones.

The features that this phone has are top-tier and the gesture control (while gimmicky) is amazing to show off. I still keep a few on cuz they come in handy.Star
The device is also incredible fast and smooth, and the screen looks perfect. People will complain that this has a PENTILE display, which has faced very harsh reviews on other phones. However, due to the high-resolution display there are so many pixels . The saturation really adds to the screen and all of the colors pop.
In short, for $240 you won't find a better new phone. The speaker on the back is loud, the sound is amazing, the earbuds this comes with are actually pretty good, the processing power is phenominal.
people want this phone for:
1) NFC...payments made from the phone using a wireless connection and Google Wallet were switched off , all other carriers get it.
2) The bootloader, or way to easily root the device and get inside to tweak everything about the device (what Android is best for since everything is open-source) is locked and encrypted...THL is the only one refusing to open it.
3) Onboard apps--like backup wifi detection always turn on and interupt what I'm doing. In fact, when opening ANY app that uses data, THL has a big pop up that asks you to switch to an open wifi so you dont use their data...you have to physically hit the "no" every single time...even when checking facebook you have to. It's sooooo anoying.
So, in summary, this is the best phone.. (Posted on 1/19/13) - I am very pleased with it Review by Christina

The wi-fi calling through the unlimited data plan is working great. regarding the wi-fi use. whether it's being charged from your minutes. I have asked the people at THL and they said it was not. We shall see. I really like the wi-fi calling. I also have an SIP account so, if wi-fi calling falls through I have that. The phone has a standard headphone jack compatible with standard Aux mp3/cd player headphones, A 32gig micro sd card works fine. if you want to back up your phone and everything on it that's one way you do it. A strip of packing tape works well for a screen protector. (just be sure not to cover and speakers or Mic's.) also I like that you can set any song as your ringtone, and it will be the actual song, not some annoying chime that makes noise to the beat of a song. It is my first android phone, and I am very pleased with it. (Posted on 1/15/13)Star - This phone is great Review by Susan

This phone is great, it is a perfect performance, it may not be the most advanced model, but close to the latest technology. I personally recommend five yuan insurance, it will save you a lot of headaches.This phone is 1.2 GHz dual-core processor, 1GB of RAM, 8.0MP camera, really! ! Wow, 3.2MP front camera, 2300mAh battery, removable storage to 32GB, gorgeous white. Make sure your battery charge before large-scale use is very good.

I just got this phone yesterday. It is my first smartphone and I'm in love. It does everything and more that my 4th gen Ipod does (except has Android). Its super fast on the web and switching between applications. The camera seems good. The flash is blinding at night! Haven't played with the video yet. I love how you can speak almost every command instead of typing. You can write a whole text message with your voice! The GPS is great too. And with Boost, everything is included in your plan so you don't have to worry about data charges. The best thing for me though is being able to stream Pandor in my car! It's a great phone!

Before I buy something.. I be sure to look at the reviews, and when I looked at these reviews I kind of put it off, because there wasn't many good ones.

Using this phone for 3 months.I really like this phone, the phone will never learn than I am, because I am not very tech-savvy, but do a lot of text messages and calls, and even great works! If you're shopping for an advanced phone, but not ready for an iphone, this is a great phone. Seems to be more advanced than the older generation of people able to handle, but there is a small technical background is great. This means buy a youth, young adults or people cruise through life six, the price will not break the bank and it is still a great phone. (Posted on 1/8/13)Star - it‘s good Review by Jimmy

In this call before, I was just an ordinary clamshell mobile phone. I want to change a mobile phone, but I don't want to spend too much money, so I went to THL. I have had this phone for about a year now, it's just amazing. The mobile phone is not as powerful means, all of these new high-end mobile phone, but when browsing webpage, SMS, email, listen to music as easy to use, such as the function of the mobile phone, the mobile phone cost 2 times as much, the carrier about a half of the cost of other plans. Overall I is also quite satisfied. (Posted on 1/7/13)Star - Love the screen size Review by Grace

Before buying this mobile phone, I was reading lots of reviews and watching lots of video comparisons among several smartphones, and many of them lead me towards the THL Inspire 4G. everything's been perfect since I received it. I simply love this smartphone. Although it's bigger than the average, it's stylish, really beautiful, and the huge screen is awesome. Apart from that, its graphical user interface, THL Sense, is the best have seen in many smartphones, including Motorolas, Iphones and Blackberrys.Apart from all this, as the sound quality is extremely important to me, this topic deserves a special mention. Although the quality of its speaker is not really impressive, the quality of the sound is the best of the best when listening with earphones and turning on the Dolby Mobile option.

I expedited my shipment and got it literally 2 days after I ordered it.Wifi works great. Built in hotspot although unlocked cannot be activated. Says call ATT to use hotspot data. If you know how to root android phones you can activate but since I do not and dont know anybody to root the phone im stuck using a phone with only 75% of its total capability. The phone works great and is more than I expected.Camera takes awesome photos and the HD cam is just as good So over all I'd say this is a great product for a great price.

The phone is very good $ 240 buyout phone. It has a powerful sound (headphones and speakers). The camera on the phone is very decent.There is no doubt that, as a good eight million pixels.I like Mobile Wi-Fi call from home, it allows me to run my own WiFi system, if the signal is weak indoors. Use Gtalk video chat is very good. Wireless transmission, GPS systems work well, it has a better grip on the back of a texture. Normal use (remember not to load the phone with a lot of applications and gadgets) battery lasted all day. I work for this phone (including charger car charger), the screen is easy to see the colors are good, it is not flashy, but it works very well.

it is by far the best phone I have ever had. I have owned a very many phones over a period of 17 years. I was a little leary about getting a phone I knew nothing about, but I trusted my at&t sales rep and bought it. I have had almost no problems with it. I have way to many pictures and text messages on it and it causes it to freeze up sometimes but not much(which can be expected with so much space taken up). I usually just restart it and it is fine. Every so often I go through and delete things to give it a little bit of a break lol. I have never loved a phone as much as I love this one. I have dropped it on my ceramic tile in my kitchen and bathroom and it didn't even have so much as a scratch on it. I also dropped it on my concrete steps in my garage and again nothing happened to it. I have to say if you are going to get a smart phone (or any phone for that matter) this is the one to get. It has an 8MP camera which is awesome and the color is so vibrant I can hardly stand looking or using anyone else's phone. I have to say this phone has me spoiled. Also if you lose your phone you can download an app called android lost from your computer to your phone. It will send you the last messages sent and received, phone calls, take a picture from your phone, send crazy loud "help me I'm lost" messages (the phone can be on silent and it still plays it loud), you can set the phone to lock up and notify you if a different sim card is inserted, and many more great things to find your phone. On top of all those things it gives you a gps location within 7 meters of where your phone is. Trust me it works. My phone was stolen and I used this app and it had an arrow directly on the house where the phone was. All of this is emailed to you and the person with your phone has no idea any of this is going on. Awesome phone I highly recommend it to everyone!!!
