So, correct me if I'm wrong, Globe's Family Values Promo enables you to buy a locked
P800 with a Globe Plan (in my case, I plan on getting the lowest which is
G-Text) for
P31,200 provided that you or any member of your family has an existing Globe Postpaid Line already??
That's a
GOOD deal don't you think!!! Especially when you can only buy it in the market now for
P39,000!!! That's almost P8,000 savings already. If the 1st line is really being used by another member of your family and you need a new phone with a new line then this plan simply beats out having to buy an open line phone.
Did I understand the promo correct? Whatcha guys think?

Well, that's fine... Although, some authorized dealers are selling it for P36K. You have to ask yourself if the locked unit is worth it since resale value of locked units drops a lot faster than openline units.
If you get a G-Max plan, Globe sells the P800 for P15,500. If you really use your mobile a lot every month, this deal is worth it.
If not, I'd suggest just getting an openline unit... my friend sold his P800 for P35K (he found it too complicated) and it was only 3 days old, openline from Semicon. Just weight your options well... locked or unlocked, it is a lot of money... think it over before buying.

40k is semicon's price if purchased on credit card.
BTW, regarding Globe promo, if you read the fine print, you will see that you need to maintain the Gmax plan for TWO years. So, that is P84,000 + 15,500 + subscription for 1st line for a SIM locked phone.
Good deal!!!

if u need to buy one,my opinion is go with the openline,beleive me a few thousands of savings is not worth it especially if u travel a lot and a globe signal is almost absent in dat area.sim locking a phone should be removed,hey you bought it with ur money n not rented it.they should just offer very enticing plans to keep their customers loyal... just my 2cents.

what if you can get the unit at a discounted price of 31,000 from globe without a plan? is it still worth it for a locked-phone?

globe does not offer discounts for handset only. and good luck in finding an available p800 unit. i was dismayed by what the globe representative told me two weeks ago (when i was planning to buy a p800 under family values g-text for Php 31500). he told me that there is no available p800 units because they are reserving it to their platinum subscribers. what is happening to globe? when i heard this, i bought my open line unit at semicon. well, on the good side, an open line pda/phone empowers us, the users in having the liberty of choosing our network or even use both (globe and smart) and possibly even the new cellular company that will infiltrate the big boom business.
