Vodafone V860 Smart II - User Reviews

  • This phone is a joke to use as a daily driver now in 2018. You don't realise how badly it's aged until you actually try to use the phone.

  • upgrade double iPhone os linux os Vodafone smart 2 860i

  • Dis phone is very stupid wen i want 2 update it it gives me installation aborted whyyyt

  • This phone was already outdated when it was new. All the way to the very Android OS it used. Any newer low end smartphone would be a better investment. You cannot update the OS unless you root the phone. Then you probably wont be able to update it anyways because of storage and RAM issues with this phone. So....... you can either just use it as it is or buy a newer budget smart phone.

Am very ashamed of the maker of this so called an Android device because this is the worst Android phone I have used. We need new vision & prescribe us on the sd card to use because the mistake I have done I will not let others do I bet if our problem are not solve I beg u u are going to loss customers because no parent will give a spoilt meat to their child to eat. Hope to hear from u guy soon......

  • This is a very cute little complete paçkage with battery problem

  • For my opiniion it's a "good" phone. It has a very small memory so i just used it to text and call and maybe play a game. I've had this phone for 2 years and now im buying s3. This is what i recomeend to download: Facebook, Twitter, Google +, Whatsapp, and maybe a game or another app (-10MB)

  • I use this phone more than 1 year. It is good phone. With me only your "It freezes easily" is the case, probably every 2-3 days I have to reset. No other complains.

  • I like the phone&it's awesome but my touchscreen got damaged&fortunately is still working. Am in Malawi and cannot find anyone selling here where can I get one and how can I order?please help am inneed of it

  • Yes it does support whatsapp

  • This phone is the best choice because is for low cost android based os.Function on this phone is good but you may learn to use this smartphone,memory good,cpu good,slot sd card very,very good,dimensions acceptable..this is my opinion...and about this os-try to empty every time memory ram when close an app.Do not use more than 1 app togheter on this phone.That's gonna lock your memory on phone..Try to not install7000 application on the phone-this is not a computer!Is just a basic low cost phone.This is not a galaxy s4 or s3 so don't kill him with more app.For quality-price it is perfect for your pocket-money.

  • This phone is not the best, but do not buy this phone becasuse it very slow and you will get angry very quick. In conclusion, please do not buy this phone because you make the wrong choise. Thank you.

  • Hello, This is a very good phone. but it cannot support ''Hindi'' language, what could i do for this, please give me some advice... Thanks

  • Battery is the worst part of this really good phone, making it less usable. It barely lasts whole day with simple usage, so I always have charger in my car. Display is very good quality with precise graphics, but it is hard to see on bright sunlight. A Space key in horizontal display orientation is not calibrated well and it's hard to use. Camera makes good photos (3Mpix) and usable video. This phone is very good value for money.

  • What happens if you fall in the water

  • v860 is a great phone but he has o problem with root it is dificult to root it but I did after root the was allright but when i formated him he get block

  • Yes you can input another sim. I am using my telkom mobile in it. And it does NOT have 1gig it is 126mb or something, user has about 60mb to download apps. Other than that everything on this phone is great. Downloading is fast and it can open web pages with ease. Their is a little lag if you play online games A LOT like I do but the average joe would not notice it.

  • How long does it last? it's stated in its Specifications that 'Standby battery' or Battery life = 400hrs. So if it's in use it becomes Less. Did u read about it?

  • I wnt a cheap back up foun, so I hav com across the 1 when doing eyeshpp 2day. I see it haz same features as galaxy pocket, but slightly superior in terms of Screen size, Camera pixels, + it has Flash light. I thnk it's fantastic! But now sumbody here says it has 172mb & Not 1G of internl memory, Is it True? 2. Does it come with a Whatsapp service or it needs Download? 3. I see it's Vodafone, can I use Cell c Data fo internet in it? Will it recognize it? Plz help me,

  • i want to unlook my phone

  • i want to unlook my phone

  • use 1x ican on left side down in camera display

  • how to zooming video camera

  • i have a great problem with the autonomy of this phone. i mean the duration of the battery

  • Jim, what you wrote is COMPLETELY WRONG. You can install and even use Flash player with some browsers that supports it (Firefox Beta for example). I still watch videos or streaming videos with my Galaxy Note.

  • Which cellphone is better? Samsung galaxy mini or Vodaphone 2

  • Adobe flash can be installed on this phone but it does not work with any browser. Sorry. To watch online videos you will need to download third party apps which will work as an add on to your browser s and allow you to stream videos.

  • You should bring it to Vodafone in it's non working state. The smart 2 has a warranty which insures that Vodafone will repair the phone cost free. Do not try to fix it yourself because that will void the warranty.

  • If Vodafone made a mistake in their advertisement of this phone, then you should take it back to them and ask for a refund. It is always safer to refer to the Vodafone website for product specifications before purchasing.

  • Apple things works better on Apple products anyways. Just get a normal pair of 3.5mm earplugs and you wont have issues.

  • This phone have 172 mb internal memory and 384 ram memory not 1 gb / 512 mb, in specification for this phone have mistake

  • Having issues using Apple earplugs.

  • Having issues using Apple earplugs.

  • I own this one since oct 2012. If you're not looking for fancy stuff it's a very good option for entry level smart phones. Cheap and reliable with a number of features available.

  • can someone tell me what the level 1 and level 2 cache is on this phone, it may be mentioned above but I am not sure. Thanks in advance!

  • This phone is amazing for its price. I'm using it as a secondary phone, cuz i needed one Vodafone device too... For daily usage like calls, messages, checking your e-mails, looking for something on the net, its just great. About the battery life, there is nothing bad about it, it lasts 12 hours even with moderate wi-fi and 3g usage. With few call and messages/day it lasts up to 3 days for me, which is not bad at all. I recommend buying this device if ur looking for a cheap smartphone which does its job for its price.

  • Hi, can you please tell me if the phone's system can be installed in Arabic language? If yes, please tell me how.

  • but skype and android 2.2 or higher support video call with front camera.

  • How do you stop the auto updates and can you delete apps like office docs, google plus and twitter. There is no room on it and evrynight it updates and fills the 156mb space. Help!

  • PC suit is in the memory chip. just connect the phone to pc and check the chip

  • my cell fone is lockedpattern attempts

  • The best advice i can give you is simply not to unlock this phone. This Alcatel made ,Vodafone branded phone is so problematic that it is best to wait out the warranty over unlocking it. If it was a Samsung,Lg or even a blackberry, i would say go for it. But the smart 2 is prone to failures and defects and the the warranty won't cover an unlocked handset.

  • Why do you want a PC suit?? Use an App like Remote Web Desktop.

  • kindly i need your support to make unlock to the handset . what is the way ??

  • Alcatel product.

  • An all-around terrible phone, Signal drops just by holding it, speaker volume is below decent headphones will hurt and scar your outer ears every time you use it and the unrooting is by far excessive. The battery usage is by far of a class of its own. This is the first phone ever that should come with a pack of batteries as standard. It clearly is a smart phone with both hands tied behind its back really.

  • Super phone. Bought it 2days back n' enjoying. Worth for price.

  • it is bad..the internal memory is 150mb

  • How can I use this phone as modem? Cant setup a dial up connection.. Answer some1 plox.

  • Do you even know what RAM is?

  • How many colours does it have?

  • Well am using this phone and am proud of it..Keep it up making this phone..love it a lot.

  • please tell me how to include the compass.

  • the battery is shittttttttttttt

  • This phone is very nice.Got mine a week ago and i'm very happy.

  • If you'll have an answer for your question: "Where I can buy silicone/rubber case for this mobile on Balcanic Peninsula, answer please?", please tell me where I can find a rubber/silicone case for this mobile phone. I live In Romania (Bucharest). My yahoo messenger id is [email protected]. I wait for your message. Thank you in advance Mihai :)

  • Have it for six months now. Maybe I am lucky to have a good one, but I don´t have any problems with it. It runs perfect, Wi-Fi and 3G working very well, 3D games doesn´t run because of old processor architecture (ARMv6). Speaker volume is just low, but you can increase it a bit with an app (search Volume sound boost on google play)

  • I agree. I also had the same issues with this phone. Everything about it didn�t work. The browser did not work or didn�t load my favourite webpages; even the default apps were useless. I had my router checked and everything was set correctly. I went back to Vodafone hoping that they would replace the handset but one their Wi-Fi connection everything worked. But on my home network the situation was the same. I was just permanently pissed off at my phone until a few weeks later, out of nowhere, everything started to work. I didn�t even do a thing and eureka, all of a sudden the phone started to function! I don�t have any logical reason as to why or how it started to work all of a sudden, but now that it does I can be in peace. It better keep working going to through it out the window. Maybe you should give yours some time and see if it �evolves� and starts to function. Just like mine did.

  • Internal memory not not not 512 MB RAM......! internal memory 150MB

  • You can purchase accessories for the smart 2 at your local Vodafone sales office or online from any Vodafone or Vodafone affiliated website. I believe that you can also have customized back plates made by Vodafone too but I cannot Guarantee that this service is available for your region.

  • I agree with you and respect your opinion.If you have good things to say about this phone please post them for others to see. My opinion is not universal and is based on my experience only. However, more than a handful of other people have gone through similar issues as I had and in some cases worst. Others have commented about the phones flawlessness which might is also true. I do not have any grudges against this phone or any company related to it.Faulty phones are out there as a product of mass production and someone will always be a victim of it.

  • I have to say just one thing...u're totally wrong !...u can use u're phone with u're home network...and the performance...is decent...and u're wrong with some other things too...but not wasting my time...

  • Where I can buy silicone/rubber case for this mobile on Balcanic Peninsula, answer please?

  • I totally agree. The smart 2 is a heavily flawed phone and even at below triple digit prices, it is still overpriced (as is usually the case with most Vodafone phones). By enforcing their warranty, Vodafone has made this phone worthless. This phone is supposedly Wi-Fi capable. However, the proxy settings have been locked by Vodafone which makes this phone unusable at Wi-Fi hotspots and also on your home Wi-Fi network. This also has the added benefit of turning all the fancy apps preinstalled on this phone by Google and Vodafone as bloatware because without any data connection they are all useless. Even the GPS function requires a data connection to function. Can you believe it!? It seems that you will need to throw your money away on a Vodafone data plan if you want to get this phone online. Another trick with this phone is the fact that as (with all rooted phones) the system files are locked, So the Google play app that�s installed by default on the phone is for � window shopping� purposes only. No apps from Google play can be installed on this phone and most useful apps that you might end up installing will either malfunction or crash. Firefox, Chrome, Opera mobile, Dolphin �. Etc. will not work on this phone. With regards to android games, you can expect only some basic 2d games to work on this phone, again due to Vodafone�s restrictions. There�s plenty more trouble with the smart 2 but one of the most awkward things about this phone is the onscreen keyboard size. Your pinkie finger will struggle not to type in the wrong letter. Anyone who reads through online forums or Google�s this phone will also be aware of the common hardware issues with this phone. Well, coming from Alcatel���. So in my opinion, buying the smart 2 is buying into a lost cause. Even if you root it, chances are the hardware will fail before the warranty period expires and you will be stuck with a zombie phone.

  • The speakerphone volume is quite average.The headphones are quite basic but have gives good stereo sound effects at a descent volume. I would advise you to use your own ringtone on this phone since most, if not all the default tones lack feel and has a an initial low sound that gradually increases in volume the longer it rings.

  • I believe that Vodafone's smart 2 is only available in Europe since the manual is only in European languages.

  • Vodafone does not supply any PC suite for this phone. However, the manufacturer of this phone (Alcatel) does have PC suites for its phones. I cannot guarantee that it will work with the smart 2 though.

  • The Vodafone smart 2 should be impressive to its projected market. However, after all is said and done it isn�t exactly �phone of the decade�. At first glance this phone does nothing else than impress. It is in many instances a way better package that that is closest and more expensive rivals (The Samsung Galaxy Y for example). Design wise it is a very neat looking phone and holds itself firmly in the palm of one�s hand. Its really is an inconspicuous handset to be fair. According to Vodafone the smart 2 comes in a vast array of colour schemes, however, black seems to be to most popular colour scheme for this phone. Not all is as it seems with this phone. The smart 2 is a brand new phone with an outdated OS. This is why a low battery life is a common issue with this phone. It is because Android Gingerbread is an all-around power hungry OS. When this phone was released in June 2012 Android Gingerbread was already outdated and two more efficient versions (Android Honeycomb and Ice Cream Sandwich) had already been released. One should also take into consideration the fact that Alcatel, the company who manufactures this handset for Vodafone, is not particularly well known for their battery producing expertise. As this is a Vodafone-only handset, the rules are the same in which-ever country you are. The rules are very simple: 1) 95% of the apps you would like to run on the phone will not run because you do not have root access. 2) Rooting this phone might void the Vodafone Warranty. 3) With respect to the above, much of what runs by default on this phone including the OS are non-upgradable/updatable and Vodafone cannot be held responsible if the default apps (even their own Vodafone apps) are corrupt of have limited functionality. I learnt all this through a quick call to Vodafone�s customer service centre when my phones Wi-Fi connection went crazy. It is Advisable to use Opera Mini on this phone since the default browser is prone to failure since root access to your phones Network files are limited thanks to Vodafone. Establishing a Static IP for your phone is a proposed solution but if you are using Wi-Fi on the go then it is not advisable. To conclude, my opinion of the Vodafone Smart 2 is as follows: It is a Lemon of a phone. Though it is advertised and branded as a Smart phone it really is a very limited handset with and outdated OS. The phones limited Wi-Fi abilities have also convinced me that the smart 2 is a possible advertisement platform for Vodafone�s data plan. However, if rooted, it will definitely be worth every penny spent on it (even though it is a cheap phone to begin with). If a proper budget smartphone is what you�re after, my advice is to go for a slightly more expensive and possibly unlocked Samsung Galaxy Y, or even better, a HTC Desire C.

  • does this phone have a pc suite?

  • I used this for few days and according to the price this is good phone. Works fine and easy. Recommended to buy this.

  • Is the vodafone smart II is available in sm city iloilo philippines? Plz help "asap"

  • The battery is very very very very very very very weak

  • Dear all! i just buy new one v860. it is good. if you use on low brightness and keep on eye on running application, its battery timing is upto 2 days. set is beautiful, fast and easy to manage. Notification is low on sound but you can add a loud one. enjoy.

  • Hi, just got one of these phones for my wife. She will only be using it for texts and calls (old fogeys) and whilst the phone is great for the price the ringer and message notification volumes are so weak you can hardly hear them even with the volumes set to max.Ok talking. If this helps, great ! if anyone knows how to increase these volumes I would be grateful. K.

  • hows the battery life plz

  • Have this phone for last few days and im really impressed with abilities vs price its really impressive phone (budged android phone). All listed features are fully operational but as usually there is something bad about this phone like all devices good and bad things. For me screen is too small and typing is kind a difficulty especially for someone with big hands :D Camera isn't great but what you can expect form 3.2Mp so low light give very poor quality picture, video same results. Processor is not too fast so less apps available form Android market but because of that battery liofe is longer than better phones with stronger processors and bigger screens. Im looking at the moment for custom rom for this phone will see what happens with different os version :D Overall great little cheap phone :D

  • This phones seems too good to be true ,whats the volume like ?

  • cool phone

  • you can use viper on any android phone and this is such.

  • Yes 10000% :) btw the phone is great.

  • Yes 10000% :) btw the phone is great.

  • The phone has vibrating mode and it is really quite standard. If it vibrates in you pocket you will definitely feel it and even on the table or in your bag you would hear it in the same manner as you would with any other phone. The Vibrating option is on by default along with the ringer though and it really makes your wrists tremble.

  • can i use viber on it??and how well viber works on it...please answer asap..

  • You have to download games from the Google Play Store. There is a massive selection, don't be disappointed that (most) android phones don't come with games pre-installed.

  • does this Vodafone V860 Smart II has built in games coz i bought the same phone and it doesn't has game in it. could u pleas explain me y?

  • how ? because i have no recovery in my Smart II

  • It might have been said, but this is actually a Alcatel V860

  • i have the phone and right now im comparing it to galaxy fit gts5670 and i am finding it very hard to choose between them...U can store apps on sd..sd up to 8gb..its a neet phone...

  • Daul camra

  • very bad i should charge every day the battery..it last at least 7-8 hours

  • thanks man, tell me this more, can you install apps directly on sd card? can you delete or modify factory instaled apps on internal memory to free up memory for other apps and instalations? and what is the specificaton of the batery mabye there is another batery with same dimensions but much poverfull and longer lasting with one charging?

  • I use mine with wifi all day, and 2g ON, and it lasted 2 days without charging, and i recieve lots of SMS's daily. It's pretty good, I recommend it.

  • please reply how many days you spend with one charging. thanks

  • Can anyone tell me how many days spend with one batery charging, is realy sound low? WILL I RESTART EVERY DAY? PLEASE REPLY SOON!!

  • How many days you spend with one charging? please reply

  • Have it for 2 months now, must say that the phone is worth its price. It's fast enough, no lags, games like angry birds run smoothly, but the camera is way too bad and the speaker is too quiet even on max volume. Even tried Volume+ premium app, but with no success.

  • It only has 150 mb internal memory available, not 1 gb as the specification say... In rest the phone is great. I buy it with 1 euro on vodafone carrier.

  • Just buy this phone with 12$ and..im very happy:D is very very very COOL :D and powerfull

  • very very very very nice simple and fast

  • I am using it .. This phone is best phone for value of money .. I recommend it to everyone :)

  • hello, i need help pls. i have tha v860 smart II for first day, and i need to installation new apps on my menu. what is the name of the application market? thank you in advance

  • i agree the buying this phone is a lot better than buying galaxy ot young this is even better

  • I am based in Mumbai,India i being waiting for this phone as i wants to purchase this phone.I am going round the clock to different stores of vodafone but i am not getting this so please sphesify the timing when this phone will be launched in India and would be available for purchase at locations around me.

  • Man this 1gb is ROM its cant be used as storage device.But you can store lots of datas as this phone provides you storage capacity expandable upto 64gb or 64*1000MB OR 640000MB*1000KB.

  • Dear bro this in response of your query. If you are looking forward for purchasing a good android phone than i will advice you to go with VODAFONE SMART 2 rather than Galaxy series.Bcoz if u do the compititive studies the feature of SMART 2 are really smart as compare to Galaxy like i.e you are gettting bigger screen size,the touch of the phone is awesome,even you can install Flash Player in this phone which cant be installed in Galaxy,the processor of phone works very smoothly and processes task fastly which is very important and vital features of smartphone this days.If you are internet and social media user than this phone is like a heaven for that along with gaming.Games like Temple Runner,Highway Driver etc are gold to play on it as graphics and colour pixelations are treat to watch for eyes.Galaxy is flop SMART 2 is really smart....smarty(You).

  • Is ds phone gud or galaxy y?plz help

  • It said 1GB Read Only Memory, not storage space.

  • Should be a speaker button on the screen while calling, press that.

  • install bsplayer or moboplayer from market :-)

  • Guys i got this phone too but i can't play any video file even if i convert them to mp4 h264.any one knows what should i do?

  • The phone supports flash AND html in the browser but in the spec says only html !

  • In my country is sold only 90 USD VAT includet (American Dollar)

  • How do i turn microphone volume up please? i can hardly hear people talking to me

  • For a first smart phone i'm thinking this one, cheap and chearful ? Is it easy use am used to older :-) much older Nokia's. Thanks

  • WTF do u people expect from a £70 phone u greedy things, this phone gets higher score on benchmark tests than galaxy ace and thats that!

  • Very poor viewing angle in landscape mode, only 128 mb internal memory not 1 Gb as stated. Screen looks like it could scratch easily. Poor volume with internal speaker, excellent through decent earphones though. Battery life poor, only arm6 processor, costs £70 in UK, worth much less. At £40 would be worth price, going to return this item, junk....unlike the ot 990 which is fantastic, also made by Alcatel.

  • what is the cost of this mobile and can i know - how the andriod is running,??

  • the only problem with this pone I've had by now(I own it for a month and use it a lot) I can move some of the downloaded applications from phone to SDcard, some app's like Instagram and others doesn't work, or can't be downloaded at all, but the most painful problem is the HEADPHONES... the quality of the ones that came along is horrible, so I tried to use my apple headphones. fail, when I plug them in they don't work, now, I'm looking for new headphones, which will work, and will be better made, any ideas where I could get those? P.S. in general it's a good Phone for the price I paid for it.

  • you can get one in the Vodafone stores, I got mine for 12 Euro

  • I got cover for mine from the Vodafone store for 12 euro, asking the shop assistant...

  • silicon cases for this model, anyone?

  • More than 40 million people, FYI.

  • seriously who the ...ck cares about instagram?

  • This phone does not run instagram properly. I was so gutted when it didn't work, pictures just come out black. Also, it freezes a lot.

  • it is exactly 97eur - 433Ron

  • yes, it is JB Android!

  • nice mobile

  • can this phone run instagram?

  • When it is going to be launched in India.I am using version I which not so updated as par as processor is concerned but this new one is coming with Gingerbread 2.3.7 which quite good.Also let me know whether it is upgradable or not as previous version had this facility but when gone for updation it didnt have any online updates available which was quit unfortunate. According to GSM arena the screen size is 3'2 which is pretty good taking account the usefullness of Android phone as those are not restricated to calling only multimedia use is very prior feature for Androids now days.HSPDA speed is also upgraded to 7.2mbps wherein in I version it was 3.4mbps which is quick slow against the kind of 3g speed we are having in India.

  • -sound level is too quiet -reboots in every 24-30 hours because of CP crash

  • Got mine in Ireland for 39.99euro prepay for switching from other provider to Vodafone at carphone warehouse. Only had it day but things I will note: SD card under the battery, silly idea, No notification LED light for missed calls/sms, Back cover flimsy to take off to get to battery etc, good responsive screen, ringtones seem low or ramped (ascending) ringing starts off quiet then get louder, No DLNA feature out of the box but download app called Skifta and it will give u DLNA feature (used on smart tv's etc) no autofocus camera seems to be fixed focus and only 3megapixel camera low by todays standards, jerky video recording when moving not smooth at 15fps but it is 640x480 vga (no HD, not even 720p) Just took photo and red curtains came out pink/purple colour in the picture (maybe I should have changed white balance settings if there is such settings), came with 2gb SD card included, no transfer software but can download android app for managing items from phone on PC. Great connectivity featuring the full works Bluetooth, Wi-FI, assisted GPS. Overall very good for price and feature have paid a lot more for phones in the past with much less features.

  • whats the score with the notification light to notify of missed calls/texts there dont seem to be one on this vodafone smart 2 phone I bought. All my other Android phones had blinking light on right of handset. When i looked at Dummy phone on display in the vodafone shop it looked like there was an oblong 'window' next to the earpiece on the right as you look at the front of the phone so I was presuming this would be notification LED but on my phone it dont appear. If I tilt my phone slightly I can sort of see the oblong window, is it just they have not put the notification LED in this phone or could it be this widow has only the sensor behind instead to auto adjust display light or turn off display when u hold phone to ear when on a call? - this is bugging me somewhat, I want a LED light to flash when I have missed a call or SMS.

  • also be prepared for randomly freezes and crashes... Something is not ok with the software

  • Hi there. Well it has both good and bad attributions. good: cheap, nice screen, good wifi bad: max sound level is too quiet, weaker gpu- dont expect to play with asphalt.. etc, for games like fruit ninja, smurfs village, sims its okay. some bad news reported by users: sometimes u can't hear the person u talk with on gsm, but on viber this does not occur. and random freezes (I've never encountered this) in that case service support is recommended. Let say that, for this money, xou can't really find a smarter phone.

  • i forgot in my prev post +swappable back covers, if you get bored of the look or phone scratched. +2 GB card included

  • +very cheap (free with contract) +good battery +good construction +decent screen size and resolution +feature pack (camera flash, radio) other phones in this class do not have - poor speaker sound (have to use volume+ to increase a bit) - camera quality low

  • no ,ther is a nothing wrong to buy this phone .this is a fantastic phone in this modern time.

  • I give to this smartphone 7 points,the battery is not so great,the pictures are low,you can not save pictures from internet,you can not put entire picture on your screen.only things that i like is the design and the response of touchscreen.is a bad droid
