K618i

The final verdict is K618i, decided on a frustrated impulse. I felt that M1 was still better and i have doubts in the durability of the new generation Samsung Slim phones which are the best deals of Singtel. After much research, i realise that K618i may not be a music phone and it may not come with a pair of earphones. But like i said i bought it on impulse.

Frustration 1: i waited for the whole of 18-22 Dec offers to be over for the new offers to start only to realise that the new 23-29 Dec offers are the same
Frustration 2: Nokia 6230 looks too cheapo and Sony Ericsson Z610i's features isnt very good
Frustration 3: im not getting sponsored


So on the fateful 24 Dec, i went to get the K618i cause the advertisement says "free bluetooth headset worth $128".

I went to Compass Point they say dont have. Hougang Mall Arrow Communications say dont have. But i clearly remember the advertisement is Arrow Communications de. So i went back home and take the newspaper. I went to Hougang Mall's M1 shop and they said the K618is with bluetooth headset are sold out. Then i went to Hougang Central's Mobile shop which also advertised the same thing. The guy without a twitch said "You see it says while stock lasts. so sure no stock one. always like that one lah"

#$%^&*

So i went back to Hougang Mall's M1 shop thinking that i should just forget it and buy it. The sweet lady says "sorry the free 3G card offer is only available at the main branch"

...

#$%^&*()@#$%^&*(

So i went back to Compass Point and queued for 45mins. And finally got my K618i. Lesson learnt, NEVER NEVER NEVER NEVER trust the advertisement.



My K618i!!

Its quite cool but its giving me some network problems. Oh well.

By the way my new hard disk is fixed. Yay.
