Looking at Globe Telecom's marketing materials in a visit to a Globe Telecom business center, I noticed that the Samsung Galaxy S III mini, free at Plan 999, is front an center of their marketing efforts. The Galaxy S III mini is a fine phone at the plan.
Globe does have a nice sleeper in the line-up. The ZTE T81 is my favorite Globe offering at Plan 999. The ZTE T81 is available free a both My Super and Unli Surf Plans.
The ZTE T81 is a Android smartphone with a 4.3-inch qHD display. Powering the phone is a 1.5 GHz dual core Qualcomm Krait processor with 1 GB of RAM. The ZTE T81 also has a system-on-chip LTE modem. While ZTE does not have the name recognition of Samsung, in terms of substance, the ZTE T81 is a more powerful handset the the Samsung Galaxy S III. It is the sleeper in Globe line-up of phones.

The ZTE T81 version from Globe is actually only 4 inches with 800x480 resolution, and 5MP camera, as opposed to reports from the net that say 4.3 qHD with 8MP camera. The CPU is Qualcomm Snapdragon, though. I should know as I own one of the few ones (based on what the sales staff from Globe told me).Sorry for the error.
interesting though it's still stuck on ICS

ReplyDeleteCouple of Qs :
ReplyDeleteHey you think this is still better than the SGS3 Mini even though its still run the ICS?
Will it void the warranty if I force update it to Jelly Bean?
If globe is handing out something different does it still have NFC?
