MANILA, Philippines - You can now buy an Android smartphone for only P1.
Smart Communications Inc. is holding the first-ever “Piso Sale” on a selection of handsets — including smartphones Netphone 701 and Huawei IDEOS — bundled with the Unli Postpaid Plan 599, which provides unlimited SMS and calls to any Smart or Talk ‘N Text number. The plan comes with a lock-in period of 24 months.
Both the Netphone 701 and Huawei IDEOS run on Google’s Android operating system, enabling them to access thousands of free applications through the Android Market.
The other handsets included in the “Piso Sale” are the Alcatel OT-506D, Cherry Mobile D13, Nokia 2730c, Nokia C2-01, Nokia X2-01, and the touch-screen Samsung Champ (C3303). All these phones are Java-capable, meaning they allow the installation of basic applications.
The promo runs until March 23, but the devices will be available on a first-come, first-served basis.
So hurry now to the nearest Smart Store to apply for the device-plan combo. Just bring a valid ID, proof of address like utility bills, and proof of income, such as your latest income tax return.
