Orange San Diego - user opinions and reviews

Phone did not have a removable battery, the back of the phone was glued into place and users could not remove the battery without a hot plate to melt the glue for repairs in a repair shop.
Phone used to show on Google Play as Intel AZ210 but marketed under different names.
Often the black plastic down the side of the screen used to crack and became sharp. The silver plastic on the side under the volume rocker used to crack very easily. The power button at the top of the screen used to break and fall into the device making it less proud standing out of the device and made a very hard press to make it work. If any of these situations occurred, if you were under contract or bought the phone outright would usually result in a complete phone replacement by next day courier in the UK.
I had all 3 above faults and had the phone replaced 3 times.
The extra search button rarely ever had a function other than the homescreen. However well you tried to look after the battery by not overcharging or charging too 100% from 70% etc, the phone wouldn't last for a full 2 years of service without needing a new battery.

The power button breaks eventually, it's just a small piece of plastic, and would be an easy fix if you could get the part. They are made in India under the name Xolo X900. I use mine with the back off, you can press the power button on the circuit board with your nail. The battery is now going though, and it's soldered to the mainboard so pretty hard to replaced. You can change the settings to never sleep when on power and use it connected to the charge. If you need to unlock it, Orange were bought out by EE, so if you look at unlocking there it's £8.95 phone credit.

This phone, although operates fine, has one defect. the power button constantly breaks and gets stuck inside and becomes unusable. I have this through orange and both my wife and I have had to have it exchanged 4 times in 2 years because of the same defect! Once the button is broken it is impossible to fix. Orange are always happy to replace but it will cost you £25 each time, even though this seems to be a known fault!

well i cant believe howe poor this phone is. i had it. it loads of orange bloatware, extremely slow performance. and the camera was bland and lifeless images. shame because it was lightweight, and looked good.
Major compatible issues with android apps. all the top games didnt run on it. And it over heated, but these were the issues i had. maybe other people have good experience.
