Samsung selling GT-I9100G as GT-I9100 in India (crappier hardware version of Galaxy S II)

u must have got proof of returning the mobile???? i think if yes then u can wait.
Yes i have a job sheet where it is mentioned i have returned the phone with box

I too brought a samsung Galaxy S2 from ebay.in and finally had the same problem as aviral... got a GT-I9100G... Roped in Akosha and have sent them a legal notice on 13/01/2012. Awaiting a reply from them. Hope my phone gets replaced or the money is refunded back so that i can go and buy it in a store. Online buying still is a problem in India and with people like Samsung ready to cheat customers, its going to be a bad experience.
Hope you get the problem resolved.

I think Toocool is ryt. If u have the proof of returning the fone, then u r pretty much covered. Else u shud not wait for more than 2-3 days counting today.
Yes. They now promise the cheque by the end of this week.
Hi aviral sangal ,

You did great job by exposing this to everyone,but the best part is have just ordered for Samsung Galaxy S2 with Sulekha hardly 6 hrs back.
So can you advice me whether i can go ahead for purchase or can i cancel the order.
Regards

If you dont want I9100G then cancel the order ASAP. sulekha is only selling G model.

I wud suggest u ask the number that was being earlier discussed in the thread, to the dealer. On page 1 of the thread, in the first post itself, Aviral has put up a screenshot, which shows the long model number of the i9100G phone. U can identify this piece from that long model number.

So if that dealer quotes this particular number that Aviral has shown, then u can pretty much cancel the order.
Online stores will never show the whole model number :(

he ordered from sulekha. and if he paid for it already, it would be tough to cancel the order. check the policies with sulekha.

also... from what i have read around... the G model is not necessarily bad. the problem is that it is being sold in few markets around the world so there are few custom ROMs available online.

for most users, it should not affect the purchase much. it is still a dual core phone. of course it sucks to be sold a product that is not what you imagined it would be based on what you have read online...

Its processor is capped at 1008Mhz, Different chipset (you cant run application specifically meant for SGS2), Different GPU, Lower 3G modem, camera app most of the times become unavailable.

Moreover the apps that are specifically for SGS2 in samsung app world also do not work on G model as it do not let you download the app because of the model number.
 
Update is they say refund has been approved. This was told to me on Wednesday. That time told me that by weekend i will get the cheque. Today they now say by friday.
 
Good for them..but STD/PCO are there...hehehe...keep irritating them :haha:
 
Hahaha...stupid reply by them...are they creating balance sheet or trial balance for you that they need to work on it for more than 15 days.
 
Hehe i know but i cant do anything else...because even if i go for a consumer court case then that also will take a lot of time
