    I don't know if I'm allowed link the deal I'm talking about - so I'll do my best to explain.

    I found a deal for a Prestigio Dual sim 4040 phone on an Irish deal website. I've never heard of this brand before but that doesn't really scare me. I did a little bit of research and it sounds grand - anyone got any experience with Prestigio?

    The phone costs €130 incl. delivery. I had my eye on a Huawei for a while, so I thought it would be interesting to compare this phone to the Huawei G300 on gsmarena. Their specs are pretty much the exact same, so I do want to buy this phone.

    However, I'm a little concerned to do so, as who do I go to if there's something wrong with it? For instance a little while ago I had a phone bought from Vodafone that kept breaking, they sent it for repairs and it came back grand. Am I right in thinking I'll have no support like this from buying the phone from the deal website?

    This could be a deal breaker for me, so any info on the matter would be much appreciated.

    Prestigio list a company in Mayo as a service centre so give them a ring to see if they will take it for warranty repair, should anything happen.

    I have set up a couple of those Prestigio dual sim phones for other people and they seem like a pretty decent phone. I didn't use them for that long but I was impressed, especially for the price that they are. The people I set them up for are certainly very happy with them.
