There’s not enough buzz made by the Modu phone during it’s arrival to the Philippines last month but to those who know what this phone could really do I bet everyone is longing to have it.
The Modu phone was certified by guiness as the world’s smallest phone. Technically, Modu is a phone but it acts more like a sim card than can be housed in different phones. Modu mobile takes exchanging casings to the next level cause instead of merely changing it’s color, the Modu jacket or Modu mate, adds functionality to it.
This phone will surely sell like hotcake… no, make it fishball, even the sosyalera loves fish balls, specially here in the Philippines where people are more into changing phones every three months. With the Modu phone you won’t have to buy a new phone, per se, all you got to do is by a Modu jacket and you have a new phone.
Wait, it’s not just a phone, Modu can mimic your popular hand-held gadgets as well. Just buy a new Modu jacket and it will then turn into a media player, a gaming device, a camera, a picture frame and even a boom box!
Modu is available in the Philippines exclusively through Globe. Sucks for Smart lovers like myself. It’s free for Plan 1200 with an Express Modu jacket and P 7,999 for prepaid.
I suggest you get the prepaid cause it comes with ImortalTXT for one year. They’re gonna send you ImortalTXT 10 twice a week starting activation. God for me bad for mom who always subscribe to Smart’s ALLTXT service.
I’m giving away my N70 for Christmas, buying myself a Modu phone and dual sim Cherry Mobile phone for my Smart and Sun Sim. Now I got all networks govered!
P.S. Can anyone please tell me where to buy Modu jackets in the Philippines?

In the Philippines, only Globe carries this model. IT comes with the 9 other Modu Jacket and comes free with a year’s worth of ImmortalTxt when you buy the prepaid.
The down side is… they don’t have the other expansion jackets so it’s not really good.

so it’s really only for 7,999?..

what is the original price of the phone if you’ll just buy it and not get the prepaid thing.

Modu Phone is exclusively distributed by Globe so if you get a modu phone, you’ll have to love Globe as well.
After seeing the actual modu phone and the available modu phone jackets in the market, I decided not to buy it cause the modu phone itself is worthless, so to speak, without it’s accessories just like a sim card without a phone.

Hi Bendz,
is there anyone in Manila
who can unlock it?
Or does Globe`s Prepaid Kit work in roaming?
Thanks

You should have activated roaming when you were still in the Philippines. I believe you cannot do it anymore outside the country.
I presume no one can unlock Modu phone in Manila as it is not that popular yet and the software may not be available. But who knows, if the sidewalk stalls have the ability to create a new identity for you, the hackers may just can.
