@NicoCalunia
is this the one available in sun cellular plan 600??ive seen it from one their flyers
ReplyDeleteI doubt if this is the one from Sun Cellular Plan 600. Bagong release pa po ito. But I will check po sa store nila. :)
Deletesan po ba available tong scribe hd? kase bbli po sana ako pero wala sa sm north edsa :(
Deleteall in all , ano po rate mabigay nyo sa phone na to ??
Deletealcatel one touch idol po yong sa sun cell plan 600
ReplyDeleteThanks po sa info. Hope it clear things up. :)
Deletescribe po ung nasa plan 600 pero di po scribe HD.
Deletescribe easy po un./
Deletebakit mas mahal ung ultra kesa dito sa scribe hd??, dual core yung isa at quad core naman ito.., anung meron sa ultra na wala sa scribe hd??
ReplyDeleteThe OT Idol Ultra is the slimmest. Aside from that, it has 16GB ROM compared to this. Ang screen display na man ng Ultra AMOLED, dito sa Scribe HD ay IPS. I think AMOLED is better than IPS. :)
DeleteHeto po comparison ko:
DeleteDISPLAY
SCRIBE HD: IPS
IDOL ULTRA: AMOLED (mas better)
ROM
SCRIBE HD: 4GB
IDOL ULTRA: 16GB
Ito lang po siguro mas nakamahal sa OT Idol Ultra. :)
may LTE ba yung IDOL ULTRA or yung SCRIBE HD?
DeleteAt this time, i have no idea if idol ultra or the scribe is capable of lte. I will get back to you on this. :)
Deletesalamat sir.., antayin ko update mo ah :)
DeleteHeto na po ang update! hehe One Touch Idol Ultra is not capable of 4G LTE. For the One Touch Scribe HD, there are 2 variants: one is not capable of LTE and the other is LTE-capable. :)
Deletensa magkano ang price range nung OT SCRIBE HD na 4G LTE enable??,
DeleteI do not know if they will release it in the Philippines. :(
DeleteSa day of release ng Alcatel, hindi kasi nila ni-release ito. So I am doubtful if the Philippines will have he Scribe HD with LTE. :(
nakakalungkot naman kung hindi nila ilalabas ito sa phil market., oh well malamang abang abang na lang muna ako.., madaming mga phones ang dadating sa market this year.., :)
DeleteThat is sure po na maraming dadating na phones this year. Nasa second quarter pa lang tayo. Save nyo na lang po pera para kung lumabas na ang 4G capable phones sure mabibili mo na. :) Ayaw nyo po yung iPhone na capable sa LTE? :)
Deletepra sa akin kasi parang OVERRATED na ang IPHONE e
Deletehaha baka may magalit na iPhone user na naman.hehe smooth po tlga iPhone. para sa akin, best OS for tabs&mobile ang iOS kaso mahal. hindi ma.afford. :)
Deletefor me the best ang iOS sa mobile/tabs but ang mahal nya at konti lang nagagawa ng iOS kesa sa android.
Deletesecure rin po ang iOS..pero in terms of customizing mas ok ang android. :)
DeleteAvailable na po ba to sa market dito sa Phils? Where to buy po? Thanks! :)
ReplyDeleteThis phone is already available in the market. If you are in the major cities/region meron na po. But not in some. I am quite sure SM malls in NCR has this already.
Deleteung sa Sun is the Scribe Easy, single sim and not dual and is @ 5MP cam for plan 600. Wala pang Scribe HD sa market
ReplyDeleteHeto po ang link ng Alcatel One Touch Scribe Easy. Sa release ng Alcatel nilabas po nila ang Scribe HD. But I do not know if they will release it. Thank you for commenting. :)
Deletekakagaling ko lang sa SUNCELL shop kanina. yung brochure nila:
ReplyDeletePlan 600
Alacatel Scribe
Android 4.1 JB
8MP camera
Dual SIM
1.2 Ghz Dual Core
5" touchscreen
tinanong ko din yung babae dun ang sabi dual sim daw.
nakakalito naman ano nga kaya talaga?
Scribe easy is dual sim. So pwd na sa sun shop makakuha ng scribe easy..hehe thanks po sa info
Deleteiba iba b ang clase ng scribe easy? kc may nkita akong review n and scribe easy is single sim while scribe hd is dual sim. so,hmm which is which b haha
Deletetnx in advance.
Dalawa po ang Scribe. Heto po yung Alcatel One Touch Scribe Easy at OT Scribe HD. The OT Scribe Easy is single sim while the OT Scribe HD is dual sim. I hope naclarify. :)
DeleteAyan naman po talaga specs ng SCRIBE eh.. ung isa e Scribe HD which is wala pa sa market dito satin.
ReplyDeleteThanks for answering sir! :) wala pa pala scribe hd? Hintay lng tayo baka june pa yan.
Deletehttp://www.cmkcellphones.com/alcatel.html ayan po. available na ang hd sa cmkcellphones.
Deletebased sa mga nabasa kong review dragon trail glass ang protection nya it means na scratch resistant to.
ReplyDeleteMatibay po talaga ang dragontrail. May nakita akong video kung saan scratch nila ng nails ang glass walang marka nagawa..hehe ty for commenting
DeleteDual sim ba to?
ReplyDeleteOpo.. dual sim po ang Scribe HD
DeleteAnong mas better? Scribe hd or idol ultra?
DeletePara sa akin (based on Specs alone) better ang idol ultra. However, there are news that the Scribe HD has another variant with 4G LTE capabilities. If that is true, then the Scribe HD is better. :)
DeleteDual sim po ang Scribe HD. While the Ultra has 1 micro sim. :)
Ano po bang nagagawa pag LTE?
DeleteLTE will make internet browsing and downloading really fast. Hindi ko alam ilang Mbps pero they say it is really fast. :)
DeleteMay nabasa ako from yugatech ata. May prepaid lte sim daw ang smart? Katulad ba yun ng lte ng globe?
DeleteI would assume that it will be the same. Yes it is true that Smart is offering prepaid LTE. I am guessing soon that Globe will be offering it also. :)
Deletesana magkaron na ng LTE na dual sim. i would really love to have that one para I'd stop bringing two androids haha :-D
ReplyDeleteWow! That would be a really good idea. But most phones I know only has 1 micro sim capable of LTE. :) Sana soon magkaroon. :)
DeleteNangita ko info about OT Scribe HD then I stumbled upon your blog. That's nice. It's nice to see someone familiar doing stuff like this on the net. I'll be subscribed and get tech news from you. :) tc
ReplyDeleteThanks for the compliment bai.hehe Truth is, I cannot post any new articles because of the flow of questions/comments. I tried to view your profile but I could not find a blog from you. I would also like to subscribe to your site. :)

Deleteavailable na po ba sa pinas ang OT Scribe HD?
ReplyDeletemay LTE na po ba sya?!?
Not capable po ito ng LTE. :)
Deletehttp://www.cmkcellphones.com/alcatel.html
Deletewhen po available ang OT scribe hd sa pinas?
ReplyDeleteMayroon na po sa sun...just ask lang po sa mga sellers. Pero without plan parang wala pa po. :)
DeleteHow much monthly ???
ReplyDeleteParang plan 600 po sa Sun. :)
DeleteilAng taOn po ??????????
ReplyDeleteMostly 2 years ang plan or 30 months. It would be better if you can head to the nearest sun shop and ask them the details. :)
DeleteSalaMaT po :)
ReplyDeletewelcome sana makabalik ka ulit. :) or refer mo dito iba. Thanks for commenting.
DeleteThe sun plan 600 is for OT scribe HD or just plain scribe? im a bit confused im on their plan 350 now i got the alcatel OT glory, i am very satisfied with the way it works, its fast and all..mao murag interesado ko sa Scribe HD for me its like the cheaper version of the Galaxy note 2, isnt it?
ReplyDeletethe plan 600 from sun network is for the ot scribe easy..but you can also subscribre to the ot idol ultra with plan 600..you are right that the ot scribe is comparable to the note 2 but i think mas advance ang note2 in terms of specs.. :)
Deletethe downside of owning alcatel phones is that its so hard to look for accessories, naguba akoang head set, i cant get one here in zamboanga :((( and i am soooooooooo dying to have any of the scribe variety hays
ReplyDeleteyup mahirap maghanap ng orig na alcatel accesories but you can buy beats for your headsets..hehe mejo mahal ra sa aq ang scribe dli nako maafford..hehehe good to have someone from mindanao..hehe
Deletewala ba sa local market tong OT scribe hd? i mean aside sa sun, where can we buy this phone?
ReplyDeleteParang wala pa po. Dito sa CDO wala pa akong nakikita..sana sa manila meron o cebu..
Deletehttp://www.cmkcellphones.com/alcatel.html
Deletesa Market Market sa Global City Taguig po nakabili ako ng One Touch Scribe Easy na single sim, ang model po nya sa alcatel is 8000A. may 3 model po ang scribe easy: 8000D/8000A/8000E. Dragontrail Glass din po itong fone na nabili ko at splash proof. http://www.alcatelonetouchscribeeasy.com/ http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WpbOoQpwAFs&feature=share.
Deleteso far okay naman po yung fone ko, happy ako :)

DeleteDi po dual sim yan. It has micro sim
ReplyDeleteparang ang idol ultra po ang microsim.. :)
DeleteLook for yugatech review about this. :)
Deleteanu po mas maganda? OT Scribe HD or One Touch Idol
ReplyDeletemay plano po kasi ako bumili or do you have any suggestion na maganda and affordable android phones po?!?
thank you :)
mas maganda po yung idol ultra..pero hindi po ito affordable, for me..hehe mahal kasi
Deleteaffordable for me is 7K and below..hehe try nyo po yung mga cherry mobile phones or alcatel inspire2,glory2, or starmobile phones, myphone at cloudfone. search nyo nlng po dito sa site marami po yan dito. nakamobile po ako kaya di aq makagive ng URL. :)
For John. Try mo search Alcatel Sapphire 2 specs (P6,990.00). I have been using it for a week now and its really good so far. The price is very affordable & its owned by a France company. The Alcatel Scribe Easy is also very good if you're into phablet, SRP is just P8,990.00 very reasonable price with superb battery life 2,500mAH. With due respect sa mga MyPhone's & Cherry Mobile's pawnshop wise, di raw tinatanggap. I don't know how true is this. Anyway we're not after for pawning it, right? Haha.
Deletethanks dito white knight. tama ka hindi tinatanggap ang mp or cm sa pawnshop.hehe :D
Delete@White Knight anu po mas maganda? OT Scribe Easy or HD?!?
Deleteisa pa po'ng tanong... scratch resistance na po ba yung OT Scribe HD?!? Dragontrail o Gorilla glass?
ReplyDeleteagain thank you po...
scratch resistant po pero hindi dragontrail or gorilla ito. yung idol ultra ang dragontrail. :)
Deletealcatel scribe HD vs O+ 8.15, which is much better? tnx..
ReplyDeleteIn my opinion mas better ang O+ kaysa scribe hd..specs wise halos pareho pero sa price mas affordable po O+ pero parang bababa pa po rice ng O+..sana. ;)
DeleteThis comment has been removed by the author.
ReplyDeleteano po ba ang gamit nyo ngayong cp?!?
ReplyDeletei'm planning to purchase sony xpreia z may review ka po ba sa blog mo regarding xperia z?
I am currently using a CM Flare and CM Click. Unfortunately, I was not able to post about sony xperia z. :( Xperia z was released long before I started this blog. Sorry po talaga and I think irrelevant na po if magpost pa ako about Sony Xperia Z. :(
DeleteBut thanks for leaving a comment. I hope you can visit back para makasuggest po kayo on what posts I will write about. Thanks po.
when is this coming to cdo? I've been saving up for this for a month now.
ReplyDeleteHindi ko pa rin ito nakita sa cdo. Try to ask sun po if meron sila nito. Sana nga dumating na ito sa cdo. Marami din kasi gusto nito. Or baka ayroon na po sa globe or smart centers
Delete:)
ano po ba tlga ung plan sa sun na scribe..ung 600/month...SCRIBE EASY po ba or SCRIBE HD?
ReplyDeletety po sa reply (:
Scribe Easy po yung plan 600. :)
DeleteTotoo pu bang merong Alcatel OT Scribe X ?????????????????????????????
ReplyDeleteunconfirmed pa po yan. :) visit alcatel philippines site for latest releases from alcatel to phil market.
DeleteOT Scribe HD or OT Idol Ultra... regardless sa price alin po ang mas ok.. balak ko kc bumili kelangan ko lng ng opinion mo... thanks.
ReplyDeletego for scribe hd. dual sim 2000mah batt. But f fast net gusto idol ultra. :) sana makachoose din ako..hehe kapos sa budget eh..hehehe
Deletemas mabilis ba yung net ng scribe hd kesa OT idol ultra, nabasa ko po kasi yung Scribe HD HSPA+
Deleteask lang po ano mas maganda nokia lumia or sony xperia?
DeleteSir Nico ano pu ba ang mas better SCRIBE HD o GALAXY GRAND ????????
ReplyDeleteOk po ang specs ng Galaxy Grand kaso maraming concerns about the phone kasi puro hang daw. I think I will go with the Scribe HD. :)
DeleteTnX :)
Deletewelcome po. sana nakatulong. :)
DeleteIlan pu ba ung capacitive touchscreen ng scribe hd ?
ReplyDeleteWhat do you mean by ilan ung capacitive touchscreen? yung pixel density ba or yung size.
DeleteYung size po
Delete5-inch po ang phone na yan..measured diagonally..pero i think this is bigger than 5 inches. :)
Deleteaccording to most blogs, incuding yours, 1gb ram ang scribe hd.. although sa cmk ang sabi 512mb, im planning to buy on cmk since 1k lower on price but i would not want to compromise my ram.. any thoughts with this?
ReplyDeletebaka yung 1k difference is due to the ram. 1Gb po talaga RAM nito according to an Alcatel Agent. :)
DeleteTotoo bng walang earpiece ang scribe hd nabasa ko kac ung specs nito LOUDSPEAKER lng nkalagay ............
ReplyDeleteMeron Ba itong EARPIECE O WALA ?
meron po audio jack ito. but unsure ako if meron earpiece kasali sa conents ng box. :)
DeleteHindi po yan ang ibig kong savihin ung sa SPECS po Nakalagay Po KaC
DeleteSPEAKER:LOUDSPEAKER,EARPIECE
Pero ung Scribe Hd Nakalagay
SPEAKER: LOUDSPEAKER
Bakit Walang EARPIECE ?
Scribe Hd Lng Ata Ang walang Earpiece
Baka po wala..hehehe pero mas mabuti po if you can really see the unit for yourself or ask the sales person if mayroon ba talaga or wala. :)
DeleteTy :)
Deletescratch resistant b ang glory2
ReplyDeleteHindi po scratch resistant ang glory 2. Please see the specs here: Alcatel One Touch Glory 2 Specs and Price in PH. :)
Deleteeh yung scribe HD ? Scratch Resistant po ba?
DeleteLocal Brand ba ang Alcatel Scribe Hd???
ReplyDeleteInternational po ang Alcatel Scribe Easy and Alcatel Scribe HD. :)
DeleteSo ibig saVhin po hindi local brand ang alcatel scrIbe Hd ?
DeleteBkiT po mas mahal ang Alcatel Scribe Hd kesa sa 0+ 8.15 parehas lng nmn sila ng specs ?
ReplyDeleteHindi po natin madictate ano ang pricing nila. :) baka mas mahal po production ng Alcatel sa unit na ito compared to O+. :)
DeleteFull hd po b ang Alcatel Scribe Hd ?
ReplyDeleteTsaka Paano po malalaman kung Full Hd ?
720p lang po marender nito na HD. Makikita po yan sa screen density ng phone. mas malaki na "ppi" mas ok sa HD videos. :)
Deletesir dun sa plan 600 ng sun sa scribe hd ilang years po ang contract?
ReplyDeleteala bang hang or log ska di b mabilis malowbat?
ReplyDeleteparang 2 years po contract. :)
DeleteWla pa namang reports about this phone having issues. :)
Meron bang GYROSCOPE ang scribe hd ?
Deleteyup meron po. :)
DeleteMicro sim ba siya o ung standard size na sim po? Thank you!
ReplyDeleteParang standard sim po ito. Sa nakuha kong specs sheet hindi nabanggit na micro sim. :)
DeleteEto po ba yung nasa Plan600 ng Suncellular? I'm confused po dito sa comments section, I'm planning to get one tmrw po, eto sana gusto ko :D
ReplyDeleteScribe Easy po ang Plan 600. Hindi po ito. :)
DeletePano po kung mag hang ang scribe hd pano po gagawin eh hindi naman na reremove ung battery ng nito ?
ReplyDeletetry nyo po power button + volume up or down para hard reset ang hanged phone. Look at this post I made here.
DeleteNa reremove po b ang battery ng idol ultra ???
ReplyDeletehindi pa po ako nakahandle ng Idol Ultra...pero i think mareremove po batttery nyan. :)
Deleteis this an LTE phone
ReplyDeleteHindi po LTE ito. :)
DeleteSir kunyari po ililibre kau ng friend mo ng phone ano pipiliin mo 0+ 8.15 or alcatel scribe hd ? At bkit ?
ReplyDeleteKunwari?hehe sana totoo..hehehe I will go for Scribe HD..mas mahal.hehe but in terms of specs pare-pareho lang. Gusto ko dito ay ang stylus para pang note taking. :)
DeleteHello po.. Comment lng po ako as a user of scribe hd.. Maganda xa.. Hindi madaling malowbat due to its battery na 2500mAh.. It may not be the best phone but for its price and specs, d ka magkakamali.. Ung pen nya is not that capacitive pero doesnt matter since I don't use it. For gamers, I tested it out with dungeon hunter 4. And it runs fine with a few lags sa game at medium setting. I have yet to try other games. Internet speed, well I'm running 3-5mbps dito.. Other areas 1-2mbps.. Well, internet speed is still dependent sa area and ISP. May isang beses na ng hang xa totally and you can do a hard reboot by pressing power+up button. Camera is fine, I don't really need it since I have my own cam.. Video playback is very smooth on 1080p vids. Overall, it is a very nice phone and I'm happily enjoying it.
ReplyDeleteSir Barry san ka po nakabili ng unit? hinihintay ko kasi yung release niya. Til now wala pa rin akong news. Ive been reviewing this scribe hb and very remarkable yung mga specs nia .Ask ko lang po ano ung cause nia bat bigla xang nag totally hang. Was it because of the internet usage or sa games?. Im happy that youre enjoying scribe HD. Thanks anyway sa info.. :)
Delete@barry: salamat po for sharing ur experience. Many will want to own this phone. :)
Delete@chasie: parang sa sun lang po available ngayon plan 600. :)
@chasie, sa sm cebu ako nkabili. Last may 30. Ng.hang xa because of an app. I had to reinstall it and after reinstalling, d na xa ng.hang ulet.
Delete@nico, scribe easy at idol ang nasa sun ngayon.
Does scribe hd have a led notification light pag may incoming messages and low on battery?
ReplyDeleteParang wala akong napansin nung nagtest ako..pero baka meron. :)
DeletePlease speak in English sir
DeleteAvailable na pu b ito without plan ????????
ReplyDeleteWala pa po akong nakita na scribe without the plan. :)
DeleteMay nakita ako sa kiosk ng alcatel sa sm cebu. They have both scribe hd and scribe easy. I guess ang ibang kiosk meron din. Or if merong aerophone na store, u can check it with them.
DeleteWAaahh... nakakalito! I've been to sun Shop CDO Ayala Centrio and inquired about their plan 600. They can not tell me straight if it's scribe easy or HD. But the poster said it's dual sim, so I told them it might be scribe HD. I was was there to get a plan 450 but plan to get the plan 600 for the scribe. I just wondered why the in-charge discouraged me to get the scribe.. He said sapphire 2 offered through plan 450 is better than the scribe. Is it because they are confused too what is the spec of the plan 600 ? Was the poster indicating it's dual sim is a mistake ? Or is it really HD ? Can anyone out there knows the answer please ?
ReplyDeleteFrom what I recalled the plan 600 has the scribe easy and not HD. But it the main difference between the two is that the HD has more RAM than the easy. :) dual sim po tlga ito. :) baka out of stock po. :)
Deletehelo po. Alam nio po ba f wt ang requirements kung kukuha ka ng plan sa sun? Ung plan 600,ung alcatel one touch idol. Nice po ba ang cp na ito? Plz rply. Slmat. By the way im frm zamboanga city.
ReplyDeletehelo po. Alam nio po ba f wt ang requirements kung kukuha ka ng plan sa sun? Ung plan 600,ung alcatel one touch idol. Nice po ba ang cp na ito? Plz rply. Slmat. By the way im frm zamboanga city.
ReplyDeletekelangan mo yata ng id at proof that you can pay like payroll. Pero unsure po tlaga ako..hindi po kasi ako sun subscriber. :(
Deletegamer po ako anung much better? galaxy grand or alcatel scribe HD
DeleteBEWARE CONSUMERS! READ THIS BEFORE YOU MAKE THE PURCHASE!!!
ReplyDeleteThere is a known incompatibility of Alcatel One Touch Scribe Easy with Car Chargers.
It would have been nearly perfect. I made some research before I purchased this unit and it can be considered to have the best bang for the buck until I found this issue. Since it was just recently released, none much information can be found about the Alcatel One Touch Scribe Easy. Even the Alcatel website doesn’t say anything about car charging for this unit.
I have two different but standard Chargers in my Car: Elevo USB - Dual Ports and Pioneer Car Stereo USB Port. More than a dozen of other brands of PDAs and/or Cellphones have been charged and worked without issues (Samsung, Nokia, Motorola, LG, Sony-Ericsson, Apple, MyPhone, Cherry Mobile, etc.).
I purchased the Alcatel One Touch Scribe Easy last May 25, 2013 from MemoExpress SM MegaMall. All else is working excellently except that it won’t charge while in the Car. It charges using the Wall Charger or when just connected to a Computer. In the Car, when connected using the specific USB cable (we have tried several similar USB cables including two provided by Alcatel), the said unit shows the USB icon which indicates that it is connected but the lightning icon which indicates charging is missing (or would just show for few seconds then disappear). The Battery information via Settings also indicates that it’s not charging (it says “Not charging”). This issue has been going on since the unit has been purchased. Due to time constraints because of my busy schedule and the excellent Battery life of this PDA (the Battery lasts for 3days or more without charging), I wasn't able to immediately check further and report the issue. It was only when I got stuck in the traffic jam during one rainy day and was in need of charging the PDA that I was able to fully check and determine that there is really a compatibility issue.
I have my friends and family members who travel with me once in a while. We have used and tried many different PDAs and Cellphones in my Car, using either the Elevo
Charger or Pioneer Car Stereo. All of those worked flawlessly and charged without issues. This includes units from Samsung, Nokia, Motorola, LG, Sony-Ericsson, Apple, MyPhone, Cherry Mobile, etc. This only verifies and confirms that my Car Chargers are working without issues. THUS, YOU CANNOT SAY THAT MY CHARGERS ARE DEFECTIVE.
I was only able to bring the Alcatel One Touch Scribe Easy to where I bought it - MemoExpress Megamall Branch, two weeks after I bought it. Rodel/George of MemoExpress assisted me and helped verify/confirm the issue. Below are the things done at MemoExpress to isolate the issue:
- Tested the unit using the Wall Charger - It's charging without issues
- Tested the unit using another Car Charger with wires connected to a Power Adaptor - IT'S NOT CHARGING
- Brought and connected several Alcatel units (different models) to my Car's USB Chargers for further testing:
- Alcatel One touch Sapphire 2 - It's charging without issues
- Alcatel One touch Glory 2 - It's charging without issues
- Alcatel One touch Scribe Easy (Brand new - this is not the one I bought) - IT'S NOT CHARGING
* These things concretely verified and confirmed the incompatibility of the Alcatel One touch Scribe Easy with Car Chargers.
I was later on referred to Cherry and was instructed to bring the unit to their Technical Team in Robinsons Pioneer.
I brought the unit to their Technical Team in Robinsons Pioneer last Saturday, June 15, 2013; below are the things they've done:
- Brought and connected the disputed Alcatel One Touch Scribe Easy to my Car's USB Chargers for testing: Confirmed and verified that IT'S NOT CHARGING
- Opened the unit to verify if tampered - they confirmed that it hasn't been tampered in any way
eh di wag magcharge sa car heheeh
DeleteDude, ikaw ang may mali eh, you should've confirmed it first, not just ask the sales personnel. Anyways, it's not much of a problem (dude, first world problems lang ang peg mo?). You can still charge your phone in your house or in your workplace. It's not as if you're living your entire life inside your awesome car. Chill. Though it's a good thing you shared this issue.
Delete* They haven't got any other means to test further. They don’t have a good service unit for me to use (they have a non-PDA which has no use for me; I have a spare Cellphone and I require a PDA).
ReplyDeleteThey said they will send the unit to Alcatel for further evaluation. Yesterday, Thursday, June 20, 2013, I was told that the unit charges using another charger. What the!?!? They just disregarded the facts we have previously established,
verified and confirmed? THE ALCATEL ONE TOUCH SCRIBE EASY IS NOT DEFECTIVE, MY CAR CHARGERS ARE NOT DEFECTIVE – IT’S AN INCOMPATIBILITY ISSUE OF THE PDA WITH CERTAIN CAR CHARGERS! I WASN’T TOLD THAT THIS PDA IS SO SPECIAL THAT I SHOULD GET AN ALCATEL CAR CHARGER TO MAKE IT CHARGE IN THE CAR! I ASKED FOR IT BEFORE I MADE THE PURCHASE UNTIL THE FIRST TIME I COMPLAINED BUT NOBODY KNEW AND THEY HAVEN’T GOT ANY ALCATEL ACCESSORIES AVAILABLE!
FACTS:
- More than a dozen of other brands of PDAs and/or Cellphones are charging fine using my Car Chargers
- Other models of Alcatel One Touch PDAs are charging fine using my Car Chargers
- Two different units of the Alcatel One Touch Scribe Easy are both NOT charging using my Car Chargers
- All other features/functions of the Alcatel One Touch Scribe Easy are working fine
- Mobile Devices should charge while in the Car using standard USB Chargers – IF NOT, I SHOULD HAVE BEEN TOLD BEFORE I MADE THE PURCHASE! IT CAN’T EVEN BE FOUND IN THE USER’S MANUAL!
- Alcatel Car Charger is not readily available Metro Manila Malls or the cost would defeat the purpose of buying the inexpensive Alcatel One touch Scribe Easy
Why didn’t anybody knew that the Alcatel One Touch Scribe Easy is very special and will need a special Car Charger? What made it worse? There’s no Alcatel Car Charger available!
It’s already the end of the business day today, Friday, June 21, 2013…
PLEASE TAKE NOTE THAT I WAS MADE TO WAIT, MY EXPLANATIONS WERE IGNORED, NO RESOLUTION WAS GIVEN, NO GOOD/VALID EXPLANATIONS WERE SAID, THEIR FIX - I WAS PUSHED TO GET A MORE EXPENSIVE UNIT (NO OPTIONS WHATSOEVER WERE GIVEN). SO MUCH MORE THAN TIME HAD BEEN WASTED AND IN THE END? WE HAD TO AGREE TO JUST CANCEL THE PURCHASE AFTER ALL THE INCONVENIENCES AND WASTE OF RESOURCES. IT TOOK THEM A WEEK TO DETERMINE WHAT TO DO?!? AGAIN, THE UNIT IS NOT DEFECTIVE.
WHAT A REALLY BAD CUSTOMER SERVICE!!!
I'm assuming that you talked to different staffs when you tried to get back to their service centers? Well, they are trained to ease out the tension of customers but that does not necessarily mean that they have exactly the same approach in dealing with you. Charger lang naman problema, at car charger pa. Bakit? Sa sasakyan ka ba nakatira? Hindi naman di ba? Why make a fckin fuss about it?
DeleteWhy not make a compromise by changing to other Alcatel One Touch models? I hope they'd consider that. Para sa'kin lang, ang babaw naman kasi ng problema mo. 'Yung ibang tao nga walang cellphone, walang load, makakain lang ayos naman. Just learn to appreciate what you have right now. Isip isip din kasi muna bago gumawa ng decision 'tsong. Di naman mawawala kaagad agad iyan eh.
GOOD DAY!
ReplyDeleteSIR, ANU PO ANG PINAG KA-IBA NG AMOLED sa IPS?. hinge din po sana aq ng ADVICE "kung anu ang mas okey ang one touch idol 6030D (dual sim), or etong one touch scribe hd.?

ANO PO ANG MAS OKEY? ALCATEL ONE TOUCH IDOL? OR ALCATEL ONE TOUCH SCRIBE HD?
ReplyDeleteANY COMMENT OR SUGGESTION?
THANK YOU....
Scribe hd ka na
Deletemas gusto ko po yung SCRIBE HD kasi dual sim na at may stylus pa parang phablet n din.
ReplyDeleteIm so happy with SCRIBE HD classy and superb performance wala ako maipintas considering iphone gamit ko dati... worth the buy. sobrang okey sa multi tasking at gaming syempre ang linaw ng line pag may conversation
ReplyDeleteIt's better to wait for the release of Alcatel OT Scribe X. It's much much better compared to Scribe HD and most esp. to Idol Ultra (which for me really sucks (no SD and jack, grrrr)). It will take some time but it will all be worth it. "Patience is virtue." The fast-paced technology makes gadgets become obsolete at a very much inconceivable rate. 'Wag padalos dalos. Tiis tiis muna ako sa Nokia ko. LOL. (me just saying my thoughts, no hard feelings bros)
ReplyDeleteDual sim po ba ito
ReplyDeleteHello! Sure bang dadating yung Alcatel One Touch Idol X dito sa Philippines? If ever ano kaya price range niya? Thank you!
ReplyDeleteGot hd scribe sobrang ganda...hotspot super ok up to 8 user! No hang...gaming ok n ok!...dowloading superb lalot pg nsa area k n mlakas ang provider mo! Microsim dualsim ok n ok s call...d msayadong naiinit...

ReplyDeleteTo anyone interested in getting Scribe HD. MemoXpress at Festival Mall is offering it at P14,xxx 12mos 0% interest. You might also want to avail of their extended warranty with an additional P7xx. This will add an additional year to the Alcatel warranty making it 2 years. The clincher is it includes replacing cracked screen due to accidental dropping of the unit. It does not cover damage due to water immersion though. Just want to share the news. I am not in any way connected to Alcatel nor MemoXpress.
