Chea 198 - User Reviews

  • you know guys, before you say its a copy of a nokia you need to find out who is the OEM first, maybe nokia buys the phone of these guys and puts their brand on it, thus making the nokia 7210 a copy of this one!

  • wonderful design, i think it is way to much like a nokia 7210. or rather its ugly copy-cat sibling

  • Wonderfull design. New concept never said before. Very professional ingenieur that they have.. Congratulation for this very good phone never said nowhere..

  • 7210's asian cousin

  • Nokia 7210! I hate these copycats and I GREATLY doubt that these lot work for Nokia. They Should join with Bird and VK Mobile to make loadsa copycat phones! Nokia will flame these lot, I can see it coming!

  • Nokia should sue.

  • another nokia ? :) U suck Chea !

  • do these guys work for nokia aswell?

  • its a pile of shit its a crappy rip off of the much much better and classy nokia 7210

  • shit rip off of the MUCH MUCH better nokia 7210

  • nokia 7210 with black and white LCD

  • nice 7210

  • Your bad language is only mached by the sillyness of your posts brother!

  • sh*t rip off of the much much much much better nokia 7610

  • The phone have an interesting OS! And I belive that is better than N 7210 in any way!

  • a fucking shit rip off of the nokia 7210, the owners or designers of this phone need to die or get a better life, u all r idiots

  • its a fu**ing shit rip off of the much better nokia 7210, all these shit companies or whatever you are, f**k off if you cant make designs of your own

  • Unbeliveble phone! Amaizing! Simply amaizing!!!

  • Tops even the latest Samsungs and beloved (Hello!)Motos!

  • Despite all opinions, I'm still very found about C H E A 198! Tops all supersofisticated models made by very crapy Nokia!

  • how can you spend so much money in a crapy phone like this? are you mad? the 7210 is far better than this, and cheaper!!!! no color display, no technology, no nothing! and, is looks one of the cheap covers you buy to convert a nokia 8210/8310 in to a 7210... blargh... lower than this is very hard to get!

  • Oh, my very best Chea 198!!!!!!

  • If you wanna this one you may comme up with something biger than 20 euro. Try 350 euro, and still will be the best buy you ever made!

  • I wouldnt accept this phone not if it`s for free.It`s CHEA.This brand is like sh.t.When you say Chea you say SH.T.This company is really going down.Crap phones.Who the fu.k heard of Chea?Just some crazy man who don`t know on what to spend his money.I wouldn`t give 20 euro on it.

  • has CHEA not got any of it own ideas.

  • this is a 7210 isn't it?? how can it be nicer than a 7210?

  • So that's where afterlife 7210s go....

  • PEOPLE READ THIS BEFORE YOU ASSUME SOMETHING FROM PEOPLE THAT LEFT POSITIVE FEEDBACK FOR CHEACOMM: Someone seems to like CHEA so much that they left feedback for every single phone: CHEA 198: Nicer then 7210 at 2004-04-28 13:06:15 CHEA 168 What copycat?! Beats the hell out of 8310 by far! At 2004-04-28 13:10:31 CHEA JMS-110 Wow, fall inlove with it! Looks very expensive! How much is it... hope under 400 euros, 'cose i'm planing to buy it! At 2004-04-28 13:03:37 CHEA 228 Well done Chea! Destroy the supremacy of Nokia and Samsung! Keep it up! Keep it comin' At 2004-04-28 13:05:36 CHEA 178 Actually looks very nice! Give it 8 out of 10! At 2004-04-28 13:07:45 And I can go on. And on and on� If you see closely they were all posted 28-04-2004-04-28 between 13:03 and 13:10. You can check it if you like..

  • Nicer than 7210!

  • nice 7210

  • thanx Mesina. actually CHEA does kick nokias ass... Nokia SUCKS!!!

  • Kyocera isn't that good GTB, I argee with GTA but, Chea still roks the hell out the Nokias!!!

  • GTA and GT...B?! Slow down guys!

  • F***k you GTB Innostream are way better than your crappy Kyoceras!!! anyway the TG 200 isn't the best phone to promote Kyocera with is it?!?

  • Innostream 90 is a pice of s**t, don't belive the guy. Try Kyocera TG 200 insted. This one is better in any way!

  • Micheal my friend had a CHEA 168 from Romania and it was crap!!! No technology, crappy OS and all his friends said it was a third-world Nokia!!! (after that he got rid of it on eBay for $21) i use a Innostream 90 at the moment and the difference between them is Enormous! If you want something else than your 3650 try a Innostream 90/99. Ok so you pay a little more but you can feel the difference in quality, functions and design!!

  • Dear GTA, the last mobile a had it was 3650, before this, 7650 and I presum that I know something about mobile technologies! Chea 198 was and still is the best one, no matter the price a pay for it! Just the right balance between design, OS, cuting edge hightec and a milion other things! Beside that, did you have the chance to play a little with it? Try one!

  • F***K you Micheal Other companies don't rip you off they give you advanced technology you and all other CHEA buyers can't afford!

  • Nevermind the negative posts about this phone! I have it and so far is about the best buy I eved did! Best display, inteligent OS, long standby time and last but not the least the incrediblle looks! Looks like Chea is done it again! All of you, if you don't trust Chea becose you never hear about it, try to look around a bit for anythig beside Nokia, Samsung, and all the rest! They just ripping you off!!!

  • Chea can you give me a reason why you copy phones?

  • are you people mad? why dont u buy a real ORIGINAL phone for 270 euros

  • You can't compare this piece of shit with an Innostream!!! CHEA sucks!!!

  • Wow, gotta have one! Look and feel so solid and the menu are near Series 6 of Nokia!

  • Wich is better: this one or Innostream?

  • hahah.. i've never seem this phone in my country, this phone is not qualified to even reach my land

  • 270 euros?! Men, tell me were frome?! Last week i paid for it 320! But still I'm happy!

  • Should it be something better than this one?! Don't tink so, and for the 270 euros came quite cheap!

  • I totaly agree with JB, all of you should consider becoming more tolerant and respectfull about Chea. And just try several of company's mobile phones and then, you could express you're dissipointment! Chea leads away!

  • Dear friend, Chea made almost perfect terminals, so it is not unusual that others become more and more obsesed about the design and the inteligent menus that are in all Chea terminals. Don't be mad, it's a simply fact of life! Cheers!

  • hey u idiot, find out the launch date of nokia and this piece of shit. And what about the 168 and 178?? They looks like design from some other company as well. Do u mean the whole world is using the design from this bastard company?

  • 198 do not copy the 7210, it's just the way around. Trust me, Nokia was copying the industrial design of it! Chea come up with the ideea first but Nokia just stole it! Same on you!!!

  • These phones just copy Nokia phones. Copiers & f*** You!

  • wow, r u nokia now!!!!!!!!!!???

  • hey.. nice 7210!!

  • The best around!

  • well ppl, Chea is only doing what alcatel did to mitsubishi. if 7210 wasnt popular in china, then Chea is making it so. believe me, theres a big market for cheap good quality phones there!

  • chea is a shit!!! copy other brands model and modified it and make a trade mark on it. I think that the phone is Made in China

  • Yap? And what is the language you are talking about? :)

  • Cheeeeyaaaa!!!!! (in our language = yuck!, blah!, yech!....etc.)

  • Well done Chea! Good work indeed!

  • The phone is a brize to use, very userfriendly and the best conectivity I ever have! It never drop a call even in moust remoute location!

  • Very userfriendly!

  • Where can i find the 198? I'm oferring 200 eur for it! Please help me!

  • Superb display and cool ringtones! Well done Chea!

  • richard, you made youre point! don't buy it if you can't belive in it!

  • this brand must be kidding us... why don't you do to their web site you'll see that 168, 178, 188 and 198 are THE SAME PHONE they only thing that changes is the cover! the same goes for 208/218/228 and for 308/318/328 WHO ARE THEY KIDDING???!!! not only they copy other brands but in reality they onle have 3 diferente models! GET A LIFE!

  • Superb, please don't judge it before play with it! Or just buy it and trust me, you'll never look for another mobile phone! See ya!!!

  • what the hell is this?? it look like some kinda housing that i find in night market for 8210 to look like the 7210. Fuck off with this phone

  • NoMAcK, you have no ideea about what are you talking about!

  • This is crap looks just like Nokia 7210! Man, this guys have a serious design problem! Go home guys!

  • Nokia go home!!!

  • I cannnot aford this!

  • Krisu, just drop the crap!!! Please!

  • The best around so far, buy one and you'll see!!!

  • I'm not stupid, all these phones are stolen from Nokia!

  • What da hell is this !!

  • The phone is simply beatyfull! Make nokias look like stone age!!!

  • CLEARLY A SKIT OFF THE NOKIA 7210!do i sense a certain lack of originality here? i think i do!..............

  • You have not any ideea what CheaComm 198 can do for you. It has calendar, picture editor, gprs, and in time it'll become the best friend for you!

  • nice phone, wonder if they come in anymore variety of colors

  • Check this link out: Highlights: Number of Employees:11-50 People No. of R&D Staff: 5 - 10 People Nokia, SE, Samsung etc: BEWARE!! These people mean bussiness!!

  • I think they make them from left-overs from real Phones.. you know, take one XPress cover from a Nokia, put a broken refurbished display from a Samsung, strap in the exhausted battery from a Sony Ericsson, maybe (not sure if they even have it) use a returned motherboard from a Siemens, and WHAM!!! you have a Chea phone!!! It also explains why they look so similar to other phones ;)

  • Is Chea the name of the ship where they manufacture these (lame excuses for) phones?!? About the people praising them: Ramsey Star [email protected]: "if you has CHEA 198 you do not want to used" If you are from England, as you pretend to be, than I am from Tatooine and my name is Anakin....

  • hmm....lemme think. Where have i seen this cell before??? Ohh yeah...isn't this a (exact) copy of that Nokia cell?!?!?! wtf is this...anyone ever heard about this brand before...

  • Isnt this like copyright infrigment ?

  • It sucks like its Nokia originals. Fuck with this phone and Nokias phones altogether!

  • yes, finally a good phone! All Nokia's are crap!!!

  • Gosh! The immitation is so bad. It's tacky. It's horrible. I think I love it. I was offended at first, but I am starting to adore it. I think I want it. For people on a tight badget, this may be a way to go, given that this phone is super cheap. C'mon, this is funny.

  • What a F

  • xlr8r just fu c k off

  • what the fuck, this company is just copying phones.... damn shit....

  • Not at all a blatent rip off of the Nokia 7210! How do they get away with it?!
