Inq1

Anyone have any experience of this phone? Setting aside the fact it's on 3 (my 14 day cancellation period will be used wisely if necessary!) is it a good phone? I'm completely unfamiliar with the brand so wondering if it's wise to commit to it for 18 months...

  • I think I saw somewhere that its made by HTC. If thats the case, it should be pretty good in my experience.
    Careful of 3s 14 day refund. I don't think it counts if you use the phone!
  • aye they rhymed off a load of t&cs to me, don't set the time, don't add any contacts etc etc. so basically don't touch the phone :rotfl:

    just as it's a new phone manufacturer i'm a bit wary, all i can find online are reviews written around the time of its press launch - no actual user reviews which are what count. hopefully i'll get it this week and be able to report back.

    Was thinking of getting one myself but I noticed the signal wasn't all that great in the shop (I encountered frequent loss of signal on the 3 skypephone). Looked on-line and found a comment from two people saying the reception wasn't as good on the inq as other phones they'd used on 3. Also I noticed the store phone was running slow when I tried to move thro the menus quickly.
  • I got the INQ1 for Christmas and I love it..I'm a bit of a Facebook & MSN junkie so i'm finding it brilliant! I've got it on PAYG so no contract.

    IT STATES "Can be used as a USB modem for Broadband on the go"

    As it has unlimited internet access on the £15 package,

    Is there any restriction on using it as a modem.

    The included internet bundle is only for browsing on the phone, you have to add another bundle.

    The phone is ace, i have put some details in my blog link found in my profile

    Mozkowitz I don't understand your post, I meant in the T&C "it states" not in the states as in "America"
