Alcatel Glam 810D, literally a compact phone
It’s no secret that some mobile phones should be fashionably stylish and chic to appeal to the female market. Alcatel, however, decided to take it to a new level by introducing the Alcatel Glam 810D, a clamshell phone that looks like a beauty compact.
Outside you’ll see its shiny pink lid (also comes in silver and red) on a slightly chunky body. The lid will also display time or notifications at the press of a button. It also houses the 2 megapixel camera on one corner.
Inside is a 2.4-inch display with a 320 x 240 resolution on one half and a QWERTY keyboard on the other half. To maximize the square space, the layout on the QWERTY keyboard is a bit different than normal QWERTY phones so it will take some time getting used to.
Don’t expect Android here. This is not a full-blown smartphone although it has a built-in Opera web browser, MSN messenger, E-mail, Facebook and Twitter Java apps. You’ll also get an FM Radio, music player and Bluetooth out of this Alcatel Glam phone.
You really won’t buy this phone for its specs but more for its unique looks if you want to be different. It will definitely attract attention when you whip this out from your purse. The Alcatel Glam 810D retails for Php3,999 and should be available in Alcatel stores nationwide.

cute phone for the ladies pero those who are only after looks will buy it. it’s still a toyish looking phone.
similar to lg ice cream
Not really it’s much more fashionable and so much easier to use.
Honestly, girls will look more stylish and girly if they’re holding a real smartphone, compared to this one. On a personal note, I find it cute. That’s all LOL.
looks like a compact pressed powder! hahaha! so cute.
I like it! Saw it on Laureen Uy’s blog. Not bad. Apple products are great but its nice to have something different.

I’ve had a clamshell phone before. It lasted for years!–until I needed money and had to sell the thing. Dropped it so many times but never a scratch on the screens(it had a small external screen). I dunno if it was just the brand making it a sturdy, but if it helps, the phone was a Sony Ericsson W300i. After some time, like 2 years or so,the flip kind of loosened up but it was never a problem. It was in no way near snapping off. Just don’t don’t drop it while it’s open. Just like a turtle while its limbs are poking out and it falls, it’s gonna be a bad fall. Well, good luck!
how about the speaker? maganda ba ung tunog hnd ba bsag kht nka earphone or nka loudspeaker? Thanks
Hi, can I ask something about this precious phone. Can I install application like other OM(opera mini) or Games that are free around the net? thank you.
Cherry mobile’s X9 is similar to this phone. Alcatel’s price now is 3,599 while Cherry’s is 3,999. I like CM’s better though.
