Buying replacement basic phone or smartphone
Buying replacement basic phone or smartphone
Hey guys,
Unfortunately I had my iPad stolen from my hands a few nights back by a guy on a moto (I have used find my iPhone, set up a lock and set for the data to be erased once it's connected to the internet (it hasn't yet been since it was stolen at 7pm on Friday 3rd) any further tips appreciated but I've pretty much accepted the fact it shall be no more)
Anyway, I'm not crazy for technology and would like a super basic phone for purely text and call, the cheapest I could find in the big mall here was a Nokia at $40 and from a second hand shop, an unfamiliar branded phone for $35 (camphone)
Ideally I'm after a straight up Nokia 3310 for as cheap as humanly possible (I'm hoping someone has one lying around in a draw and will take pity on me) or any recommendations on where to go to buy one.. I'm on a budget of less than 20 for a basic and up to 40/50 for an old smartphone.
Thank you ever so much, I appreciate your responses in advance.
I've been living in Kampot for the past few months and just came up to the city to celebrate my birthday, so I'm still pretty fresh here in the big city. I'll be around for a few more days until I sort a next plan.. (heads off to job forum thread..)

In your case, I would to the area between Central Market and Sorya Shopping Center. That little area has several places selling phones in that price range.
Definitely bargain, and check a few places before deciding on one, as you might be surprised at a deal you find!
Make sure to check EVERYTHING on the phone before you leave. Ports, all buttons, speakerphone, open it up, etc.

There is a local shop called Domrey Meas (Golden Elephant) which is a phone reseller. It is on Sihanouk Boulevard on the corner of Canadia Bank, Across the street from ABC bakery at the traffic lights where a taxi station to Vietnam is, near Psah Olympic (Olympic Market) and City Mall.
I don't know how much Clearer I can be on the directions guys.
Alternatively look it up on yp.com.kh
