[Question] Looking for Gorilla glass phone
#1
After breaking the screen of THL W100, a good phone really, I am looking for a replacement. The least expensive phones with Gorilla glass I found are THL W8s

http://www.merimobiles.com/thl-w8s-mtk65...ri7811.htm

and Zopo C3

http://www.merimobiles.com/zopo-c3-white...ri7608.htm

Both are 5", MTK6589T, Gorilla glass II (C3) or III (W8S). What is your opinion?

Any cheaper Gorilla glass phone? My requirements are quad band 2G and 850 3G (North American AT&T). May be smaller than 5". Thanks.

Haier W910 has GG, but no 850 3G. Price is +/- $130 in some places. Focal price has a special deal atm for $120.

MLais MX58 Pro has GG according to some sources... also has 850 3G support... A bit over $200. A good phone all around.

Look at the 1.5GHz C2. The C3 doesn't have gorilla. You can't go wrong with the C2. Our moderator Max just bought one for a friend and he said it's an awesome unit.

When buying from Meri, make sure to use our coupon code for 5% off.

And sorry I could not travel both
And be one traveler, long I stood
And looked down one as far as I could
To where it bent in the undergrowth

Thanks for MX58 Pro. It is definitely less expensive than THL W8S. I will start checking for price and availability on your recommendation. The non-pro version MX58 Air is listed to have Gorilla Glass, too. I will buy either. Thanks a lot. You saved me $30 min.

What is the coupon code? I searched but couldn't find it. 5% coupond code = shipping cost, more or less. Great news. Thanks.

Shipping should be free.

Coupon code is in the banner, sorry. It's 'arena'. Let me know if any issues. Also, we will advocate with Merimobiles if there's ends up being any problems. Thumbs Up

I can't 100% guarantee the Pro version has GG.

This video seems to be about the non-pro version:

If that also has 850 3G it's what you're looking for.battery in the MLais is bigger; 2500MAh. I like the HTC Butterfly design on my phone, which is very similar to that of the MLais', a lot.

zp990 has gorilla.
I can talk to God on this phone, but I don't have anything to say.

Thanks for the replies. I am finding that this Gorilla glass is very confusing. Of Zopo, only C2 Platinum INternational Version 16 GB has GG. Othes I am not sure about. MLais MX 58 Pro has GG, but our sponsor is out of stock. I will ask them.

Zopo 990 is too big for me and in the $300 range, above my budget.

All 1GB/16GB MTK6589T C2 should have Gorilla Glass now. There was a time when only the white had it. BTW, thank you very much for using the sponsor. I'll contact them as well regarding the MX58 Pro.
