Does it come in Diet or 0gb?

Is the ¥1 tier a lottery?

Is jingdong a reputable site?

 

[freenudemacusers]

I wonder if it will turn a better profit than lg or Sony.

 

[PInk Tape]

Honestly.. I kind of want this. For reasons.

that's the only place the phone is available, but yes - it's reputable

the ¥1 tier is, indeed, a lottery

 

[Tacitus_]

Hunh. If someone makes that run stock android... kinda want

 

[newtypepilot]

wait today isn't april 1st...... is it??/

P1?? WOW such an original name. What's with phone manufacturers naming their phones "one"? What's the slogan, "better than coke zero"?

Honestly I think it's because it's the first Pepsi phone, You'll probably get P2 and P3 down the line. It's XB1 which really made no sense.

 

[Fitts]

I thought this was ridiculous... until I seen the price.

Now it's slightly less ridiculous.

 

[Cloggerdude]

I assume this won't work on Verizon, right? None of these phones ever do.

If it did though....I might buy one. I've got a Galaxy S6 Edge and I would still rock the Pepsi phone.

 

[Shaanyboi]

I burst out laughing at the name. Like... how? Why?

 

[FZZ]

What a time to be alive

 

[AnathemicOne]

I don't know how to feel about this.

 

[Satch]

give to me

 

[BlackGoku03]

Lol I get that reference. Pepsi lost that lawsuit if I remember correctly

Explain. I didn't get the reference.

 

[phaonaut]

$110 is a great price, I'd get one.

 

[andythinkpad]

That's actually pretty cool I'd buy one just to say I have a pepsi phone

Me too! But I wish it was made by Coke or some weird ass drink like Mountain Dew.

edit: wait,

(second nano SIM slot can also be used as microSD slot)

Thats some magic shit!

 

[Fudgepuppy]

Really, you've got that amazing colour-scheme going and your phone is just plain white? Why not make something interesting?

 

[Melon Husk]

The future got weird.

Video from that jdfinance site.

edit: comes in blue too

 

[Enter the Dragon Punch]

it's available in pepsi blue and silver for the regular and diet colours :V

 

[Pachimari]

It's also in blue and silver.

 

[GavinGT]

the what

 

[Robotguy]

I'm actually thinking about getting this now, lol.

 

[Cloggerdude]

Few questions:

1) Are we sure that they actually received licensing rights from Pepsi? The website is basically the Chinese equivalent of Kickstarter, so it seems a bit fishy.

2) Here is the radio included in the phone:

It doesn't appear to be compatible with Verizon, correct?

3) Can a US resident even order the phone? It says they have free domestic shipping, but I'm not seeing anything regarding international shipping.

 

[Frodo]

Even a Pepsi phone starting at less than US$100 has a full HD screen and the iPhone 6s doesn't. lol

That phone looks super nice, tbh. That OS, though...

1) yes

2) probably not

3) no idea

And its the choice of a new generation...

 

[Josh5890]

Is it April Fool's Day already?

 

[valkillmore]

Am I blind or can I not see where it lists the operating system. I'm guessing Android?

 

[SentientStone]

I am in China right now, just ordered me one for kicks.
I put Pepsi blue in the comments so hopefully they send me that one.
Thanks GAF!

 

[Cody_D165]

ah yes the good old fashioned Pepsi piss. i've have many of those in my time

what's this about a phone?

 

[sohois]

If you want a cheap Chinese phone there are plenty of known, somewhat reliable brands out there.

You certainly don't need to get the fucking Pepsi phone

 

[Escape Goat]

 

[triplestation]

This is like a happy meal toy

Why are they.. Why would they even

Why

 

[uncelestial]

 

[zeemumu]

I'm allergic to Pepsi. Will using this phone turn me into an abomination?

 

[Elysium-777]

Not going to lie, I'd probably get this if it was Coke instead of Pepsi.

Thats the only reason I want it. I don't even want a LG G4 or Samsung S6.

 

[SURGEdude]

Seems like something that isn't gonna be good for their brand.

 

[kittoo]

It has exactly the same features as Mi4 and it seems even cheaper than that (actually it depends on how much it will cost when it launches in India but hey)! Didnt think such a thing was possible!

 

[geomon]

Slap a CM Punk cover on it and we're good to go.

The 499/699/999 RMB are kickstarter price, the regular price will be 1299 RMB.

 

[jokkir]

Mediatek? Yuck.

Seems like a pretty good phone for the price though

[davepoobond]

hm.

marketing your brand by creating a product that isn't your actual money-making product is kind of interesting

 

[ItIsOkBro]

What are some good ones?

Ulefone/Elefone/Xiaomi imo

 

[Red]

They could be extra clever and release a thinner model as the Diet Pepsi p1s.

 

[sohois]

If you're looking for a really cheap Chinese phone, then go for jiayu or siswoo.

For those looking for a Chinese make with slightly more cachet, xiaomi and meizu are probably the 2 best. The LeTV phone is supposed.to be really good as well.

Also bear in mind, all of the manufacturers will have flagships and budget models.

If you're generally interested, I would also recommended going to do your own research. There are reviewers and communities out there for Chinese tech

 

[Slayer-33]

For that price.. Damn
