FOR SALE NEC7 PHONE

This top-of-the-range smartphone is only one year old and has hardly been used. It's got a long battery life, so it's ideal for playing games. The camera has got built-in zoom control for close-up and distance photos. It has mapping software for anyone who likes to travel a lot and it is dust-resistant so you can take it on bike rides or hikes without worrying about damage. For only €99 it's very good value, and I'll also include a free protective case in the deal.
