My 9+ Year Old Son Wants a Handphone

15 January, 2012 (17:19) | Friends ~ Family, Rambling | By: cyza

Ikhwan, my son, wants a handphone. As parents we don’t like the idea of him having a handphone yet. However, most of his peers already used and own handphone. Not just that, their handphones are those with camera and blue tooth. We are going to the camera shop for a while and after that I’ll update the status here.

New Update!!! (After purchasing the new handphone)

This is the new Samsung Champ GT-C3303i. Looks nice.

At the shop, my son browse through the cheap handphone. However, after a brief scan, he decided that he wanted the Samsung Champ GT-C3303i. Honestly I never heard about this handphone. This small Samsung touch screen handphone has a 1.3MP camera, bluetooth, 2.4″ QVGA Full-touch LCD, FM intenna radio, MicroSD support (up to 8GB), stereo Dual Speaker, 3.5mm ear-jack support. It is quite good as is EDGE/GPRS quad band featured. I know my son don’t know anything about that.

What is the cost?

The price of this new cute Samsung Champ GT-C3303i is RM199. My son has RM150 to spend. However, my other half wanted to support half of the cost. So, at the end my son forked out RM100 and later RM5 for the prepaid.

Dah beli dah pun. He bought Samsung Champ GT-C3303i. It turns out to be that a lot of primary school students owned this type of handphone.

Anak aku yang sekolah rendah memang aku belikan HP tapi yang murah je… itupun sebab takut derang tertinggal bas dan untuk kegunaan masa kecemasan je… time lain, kena pantau la… kalau tak leka ber sms plak… jenuh nak top up

I got the Nokia C3 for my eldest a few months back. Tu pun sebab dia dah masuk secondary school. Yg 10 tahun tu dah mintak. Tapi, dia kena tunggu jugak sehingga dia masuk ke secondary school before I decide to get her or not.

Yep… that’s what I was thinking. To let him enter the secondary school and then give them the privilege of owning his own handphone. Unfortunately, my other half think that it is ok for him to have a set since many of his peers already owns one. Nevertheless he has to top up on his own for calls and sms.

Well…what to do…Ikhwan is very persistent and the mother allows. Kalah the father to defend his stand untuk delay in belikan hp.

Anyway…”jeles akak!!!”…haha….bukan ke patut panggil panggilan lain.. :)

I’m afraid I must agree with you on that. Samsung Galaxy Note is proof of extreme engineering success.
