Post: # 52408Post jimny1 »

It's four weeks now until everyone must have a Vi6 warning beacon , i just got mine
I was holding out for offers especially with black friday and found one at carrefour , they have 3 on offer the same price
I went to the boulevard shopping to get a belt altered at the key place and he was advertising them at 30% off
When i asked the price it was over 50 euros, with discount !!
I got a black friday deal from carrefour, 29.99 reduced from 39.99 , last day today if anyone wants one
You can order online, free delivery or take a chance they have them in store
I chose the one with a validation until 2038

As a matter of interest, who is the eSIM network provider as it is not mentioned in the product specification on the Carrefour website.

I am not that tech savvy C, but if it doesn't work it will be going straight back
That's one reason i didn't order from temu or amazon, too much trouble trying to get the money back if any problems

Thank you for the reply jimny1.

The more V16s that have come onto the market, the more network providers that have got involved. Just want to make sure I get a V16 that has an eSim with a network provider that has good coverage in remote areas.

You mentioned the expiry date of 2038 in your initial post, that is not something I had taken any notice of in the past, but looking at the DGT specification for the V16s, the V16s had to come with 12 years free data connectivity to the DGT3.0 platform. Come 2037/2038 it will either be a success or a failure, or even obsolete with advances in new technology.

One thing I did notice is that the V16 software cannot be updated. There cannot be much software these days that does not require an update at least once a year.
