So, do you want to buy a 3 way sliding cell phone which allows you to play games and make calls at the same time or would you prefer a large screen metallic cellphone on which you can watch videos with absolute clarity and all for just Rs 7000?
If you don't believe it, then head off to cell phone hotspots like the Gafar Market in the capital, the den for grey market cellphones where such Chinese cell-phones are now selling like hot cakes.
While, some would point out that such Chinese mobile phones would be unsafe since even branded cellphones are now prone to defects, buyers like Suleman Usif, a college student does not seem to bother.
