mywebid 21 Report post Posted August 22, 2012 Am looking for feedback on Alcatel CDMA handsets. Does anyone has used any of the Alcatel CDMA handsets (available with MTS, OMH)? How they compare with quality of other cheap Chinese re-brabded handests like Micromax. I had went to a mobile shop for buying a new CDMA handset and he recommended Alcatel strongly (Alcatel OT 616C) saying that though he stocks Micromax, but as I have said that I need quality hanset he is showing Alcatel and it is his guarantee that it has a quality of Nokia & Samsung! Unable to rely & undecided, I thought of first take feedback. Please give your feedback if you have used Alcatel handsets. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

abhishekky 13 Report post Posted August 22, 2012 I googled Alcatel OT 616C, but didn't show up any result for that model. Anyways if you want no-chinese phone, then go for Alcatel. I have a GSM phone Alcatel OT 710D, dual sim touch phone and its quality is comparable to nokia, samsung. Much better than micromax or any chinese. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

mywebid 21 Report post Posted August 23, 2012 Looks like there are conflicting views - some are of the view that it can now be of chinese quality as it is taken by TCL. Anyone bought Alcatel handset recently? or anyone using this particular handset - Alcatel One Touch 616 C? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
dr.faramroze 703 Report post Posted September 24, 2012 Anyone can try Alcatel Virgin Mobile Venture, its easily usable on Indian CDMA networks. Global easy buy on eBay sells brand new ventures for Rs 3300. It has GB platform and ergonomic keypad. Sent from my Sensation XL using Tapatalk Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
