  • Answer:

    if you really want to get cheap mobile phones Laos is a winner and a very short trip from Thailand (1500thb return air asia flight from Bangkok to Udon Tani and 1 hour bus accross teh border ) for a days shopping fo DIRT CHEAP phones you go to the shopping mall opposite the bus stop near teh morning markets in Vientiane. As that may be to much out fo your way you may be best of to opt for any given shopping mall in BKK I think it depends on what kind of phone you want. BKK has cheaper knock off copys of phones that are of awesome quality but are phoney for dirt cheap prices singapore has 'real' phones at a more competitive price. starting price for a i-phone mini dual sim card in MBK will be 7000thb and they will drop a lot fo that maybe down to about 4 or 5k the same phone in Laos will be 2500thb. remember to haggle hard.

Singapore is better, electronics are highly taxed in Thailand and cost more than in most western countries. Singapore is a duty free port and has better pricing than Thailand. For most other things Thailand is a much cheaper place for hotels, food and most other shopping. Sim Lim Square in Singapore is a great place to shop for electronics.

Singapore has better prices and you're sure to get the original ones. In Thailand you're never sure to get the original phone unless you go in a good shop and the cost is usually higher than Singapore.
