As my trusty Nokia E71 got lost/stolen I had to get a new Phone. I didn’t wanna go back to a non-smartphone so I looked at what they had in stores at Zhongguancun Tech Market. Narrowing it down to either an iPhone or an HTC Android device, I finally went with an iPhone 3G 16GB (as the HTC Hero wasn’t on sale yet). The price was about €100 cheaper than in Germany for a fully legal unlocked Hong Kong version.
After several weeks I feel I can safely say I don’t regret my decision. Battery life is better than expected (at least here on GSM) and the nice screen makes reading news and the occasional website finally possible without headaches.
