How did you get a new device? My phone has packed it in after a recent
trip to Borneo - can't find a bq for sale anywhere! Thoughts?

Thanks to the amazing service provided by BQ and also the users of
this
list I found myself with a replacement for my broken phone and a
discount
code for the BQ store. I opted to buy a phone to replace that
unbearable
android monstrosity my partner has. Knowing she would never get
along with
Ubuntu as it's different to what she's used to I opted for the Android
model and thought nothing of it as it's the same phone.
I was mildly surprised by what turned up in the post. There is no
doubt
it is the same phone as mine yet it is quite different. The first
thing I
noted is that the little pin for removing the sim cards only has
one spike
on it, the one for opening the SD card slot is missing. So I looked
at the
SD slot and was greeted by blank plastic, no cover there at all! 2 sim
slots just the same but the power button is in the wrong place.
Where the
power button should be is what looks like another sim slot, but
this time
for housing the SD card. The notification light is in the wrong
place and
blinks in an entirely different manner to mine.
All in all it kind of felt like returning home to find someone had
rearranged all the furniture! It will be very interesting to see
how this
new handset compares to mine from a usability standpoint (crashing,
hanging, overall speed, etc).
