Vodafone Smart N9 - User Reviews

  • Hi In my opinion Vodafone is one good brand. Why? Network is fast and all features and apps runs smoothly. Its been 4months now since i last used my Vodafone Smart N9. Up til now i still dont know why it blacked out. I was on facebook and all of a sudden three black lines appeared on the screen then the phone freeze for like 5mins and it blacked out. I tried charging it but no use. A simple question: Whats the cause of this kinda problem please ? I really want to know because i really want to use it again esp when i have heaps of stuff stored in the phone. So far, VODAFONE is the BEST

  • Don't bother! Ok for children. Poor battery life. Under 1 hour use or 2 hours on stand by. Huge drain on battery. Poor sound - tinny crackly sound. Reasonable picture for video playback, but cannot watch screen facing Front, only to one side. Overall half a star. Pathetic! Shame on you Vodafone!!

  • i think nokia 5 is better - same price, aluminium body, 8 core snapdragon...

  • This phone does not support 5Ghz wifi, only 2.4Ghz.

  • Of course it won't sound like it, how would you feel if that happened to you?!

  • Lol that makes no sense

  • It ruined my LIFE. I Lost my wife because it could call anyone. I got robbed but they left the phone. I couldn't call the police.My camera has no zoom in. I got lost and google maps didn't work.Its a complete failure ;(.

  • This phone is Alcatel 3's clone ?

  • Great vfm for a ton nowt wrong with it unless you are in a hurry..Chill....A good display way to use just about adequate with an SD card it will do for work drop it break it buy a new one! Simple

  • I m using this phone and the card slot is up to 64GB with no problems

  • this replace the N8 not V8

  • No, read my earlier comment, I went in further depth and explained why with some recommendations

  • Shut up! This phone is not good for heavy gamers! Don't get this! The Mali-T720 is very slow and is not built for anything more than going on websites.

  • (READ ALL!) No, because the GPU is low-end so it is slow with 3-D games. Unless you will play casual games it'll be fine but it will not run games like Modern Combat 5, Asphalt 8 or PUBG. Don't get this if you want to game. Look for phones with the Snapdragon 845,835,821,820, 636 (Best-Weakest). Even the Snapdragon 636 is fast so go for those i recommended. Phone suggestion- Xioami Redmi Note 5 Pro (Snapdragon 636), cheap and fast. Never go with any device that has a MediaTek Processor such as: anything that starts with; MT, Helio P (except helio p60). The Helio P60 is great so that's the only MediaTek SoC I can recommend for heavy gaming on a budget.

  • It obviously depends on what games you're going to play, but if you want to play games like PUBG or Clash Royale it's not good at all.

  • i would like to know if this phone is good for playing games

  • can I know.this handset available in india or not

  • The phone is realy chep and its realy good not laging and its realy good for playing games `

  • I simply do not understand the concept of this phone. The Smart V8 was an octa-core 3GB RAM machine. As an "upgrade" they have decided to lose 1GB RAM and 4 cores and 100mAh battery capacity?

  • I'm just going to say - do not buy this phone if you are expecting updates. Vodafone haven't announced an Android Oreo update for the 8-series phones, forcing many to upgrade. This probably won't get Android 9.0 (if it can even run it at all). Just go for a phone with Android One - you're better off with a Mi A1.

  • Yes apple X as well this one is more attractive to me than apple and samsung last year flagships.

  • You have a bad taste if S8/9 is less attractive for you.

  • For 120 eur with this specs maybe at 2016 year now its should cost up to 90 othervise is too expensive and also not good. Design is nothing that really stands out but saw much worse looking phones in my life for example S8 and plus version also S9 and plus version.

  • Nice phone just waiting for its arrival in South Africa

  • It looks thick

  • Nice design

  • These are good specs. But way back in 2016.

  • it must be $70
