Silver JiaYu G3 deliveries begin arriving have you got yours?!


A lucky few Chinese JiaYu customers were woke up today by the delivery of their shiny new JiaYu G3 dual-core phone, and judging by these photos JiaYu are shipping the popular silver version of the G3.

Although I have personally ordered my JiaYu G3 through the official JiaYu forum here in China, I still haven’t been asked to pay or told my phone is ready, but that isn’t to say other lucky customers are having the same bad luck.

The silver JiaYu G3 seems to be in production and is even arriving with customers who ordered this must have dual-core Chinese phone!

Seeing these photos has made me even more determined to get my hands on the 4.5 inch 1280 x 720 phone to see just how good it is for myself!

    Hi Andi,

    how much did you pay it?
    Do you know if they will ship it internationally when you order it from that forum, and would it cost the same price? What about the shipping?

    fastcardtech doesn’t seem to ship to UK. Is there any other reputable online reseller where I can get this from UK?

    • October 22, 2012

    Hi Andi,

    Is it perhaps possible to buy this phone from you later on?
    In my opinion, you should really consider the idea of selling chinese phones international. We wouldn’t mind to leave you some profit. 🙂

    I just saw pictures of the VIVO X1, and my goodness, it is the most beautiful phone I’ve seen, if that phone is released before the OPPO Find 5, I would NOT, I repeat, I would not hesitate to purchase that phone. It looks that good.

      You’re lucky you got your money back. Others weren’t so lucky when they ordered from that scammer.

    Is this phone actually available to order now, in silver preferably? Is it still gorilla glass as there were rumours they changed some of the specs of the phone. Thanks.
