Vodafone Exclusive for 3 months the Huawei Ascend G300

That's a lot of smartphone for £100... I'm certainly curious as to whether it's actually a decent phone or not!

so unlocking, any ideas?

[Hands0n]

I wouldn't bet any money on it but the early batches may just be unlocked. That was the case with the Lumia 710, which are now sold locked on PAYG.

[miffed]

Didn't vodafone make a huge song and dance about the fact that all their handsets would be supplied unlocked a few years back? Have they gone back on that now?

[hecatae]

depends, I know of one handset sold from the London Flagship store on payg that is unlocked, working with an AT&T sim

[Hands0n]

IIRC that song and dance re unlocked it referred to Contract phones only. I am told that the Nokia Lumia 710 that I picked up (£150 PAYT) unlocked is now selling locked on PAYT and unlocked on Contract.
