The ZTE F866 is now available to order from the 3 website on ThreePay at £99 (includes a £30 top-up valid for 60 days).

Other Offerings include the SonyEricsson K608i at £149, the LG U880 at £169 and the Motorola V3x at £199 (all include a £30 top-up valid for 60 days).

The ZTE is a bit dearer than I thought it would be.... around £80 would have been a better price point. The Moto V3x will struggle against CPW's Pink RAZR at £129 and Orange's RAZR at £119 I suspect.


Bargain of the week seems to be the updated Sanyo S750i now just £49 on the Orange Website January Sale.

Check out my site if you want a review on the phone. I bought 1 of these phones on launch from Argos and did a review on it a while back.

thanks for that getti...that review sold me the phone when it came out...was just waiting for this offer! Im pleased to confirm that it does come with £30 starter credit which lasts for the usual 60days...so far so good im impressed with the phone and speed of bluetooth transfers however in comparison to my 8130 it does seem abit chunkier...never mind you cant really go wrong for 80quid with 30quid credit!

Looking forward to seeing what sort of comments arise re this new entrant.
