meekstaaa Posted January 28, 2010 Share Posted January 28, 2010 i phone: http://www.carphonewarehouse.com/mobiles/c...ONE/MONTHLY/NEW N97 Mini: http://www.carphonewarehouse.com/buy/NOKIA...MINI-TGBQT-FCON (ignore the 500mb internet, its unlimited) Take your pick. ps there's insurance for £13 aswell on each. but you'll have to pay that anywhere if u want insurance. there's better internet deals on phones 4u on the n97 mini if u want more minutes.

wwwd Posted January 28, 2010 Share Posted January 28, 2010 Ah, good shout. Forgot the iPhone was all the major networks now - I'd shop around Vodafone, Orange, etc. and see if you can get a better deal on minutes/texts, which I'm sure you can.

danposs86 Posted January 28, 2010 Share Posted January 28, 2010 Never just take the price you see online. Myself, my girlfriend, her mum and her stepdad have all got new phones recently, and all of us called Ornage/Vodaphone directly and got a bit knocked off the price you see on websites. Easy to do, they want customers, just play them against each other. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Trig Posted January 28, 2010 Share Posted January 28, 2010 The iPhone is simply the greatest. Its amazing. I got mine on o2, £35 a month, 600 mins & texts, unlimited interweb. the stuff you can do with it is awesome. Greatest phone gadget ever. Shame about the camera though.

andaba Posted January 28, 2010 Share Posted January 28, 2010 DON'T get an N97. The OS is a pile of poo, and you can't operate the touchscreen accurately with a pin. QWERTY is awesome to use though.Blackberrys are a load of w4nk, with the world's worst mobile QWERTY keyboards, and rubbish features. Oh, and that horrid little scroll ball.N900's are super expensive, and run on Linux, so there's never gonna be that many good apps for it. But keyboard etc is really good again. iPhone is good, but I got sick of mine, and the fact everyone has one. It's definitely the best out of the ones you've shortlisted. Again, i'd go for the 3G instead of the 3GS though - the camera and in-built compass are the only improvements you'll notice. I'd suggest looking at HTC phones and also possibly waiting for Google Nexus? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lee_2f2f Posted January 28, 2010 Share Posted January 28, 2010 (edited) I'd suggest looking at HTC phones and also possibly waiting for Google Nexus? Wehey!!! HTC FTW! Mike as per Facebook...... HTC TouchPro 2. Windows mobile 6, Built in GPS with google maps (free no stupid subscription to maps) okish Camera.... Full support of MP3 & AVI files for movies on the go, Fm radio, Free applications!!! (not paying for them like the robbing b*stard Iphone) full Microsoft support (better support than other companies IMO) same size as the Iphone, Full widescreen tap or touchscreen (comes with stylus pen) Full Qwerty keyboard hidden, Excellent battery life, I only charge mine twice a week. Seriously take a good look at the HTC TouchPro 2 before you dive into any old contract. http://www.mytrade.co.za/buynow-131346/tinymce/jscripts/tiny_mce/plugins/imagemanager/files/638/pro_2.jpg http://www.mytrade.co.za/buynow-131346/listthumb/693820_638b.jpg DON'T get an N97. The OS is a pile of poo, and you can't operate the touchscreen accurately with a pin. FYI, the reason for this, Nokia built the N97 with a TOUCHSCREEN...... the phone would be crap with the stylus pen, as where my HTC phone is a Tap/Touchscreen, it does both, finger tip use or with the pen, works perfectly both ways.

Brown Posted January 28, 2010 Share Posted January 28, 2010 I have an iPhone and I can't imagine I'll ever have a need for another phone. I'm now out of contract (having owned the iPhone since it's release). I'm now on a rolling 30 day O2 contract, which is perfect and I'm now getting 1200 minutes with 600 texts and unlimited 3G for £20 a month. Very good times.

mykez69 Posted January 28, 2010 Author Share Posted January 28, 2010 I have been looking at the HTC's I'm not sure though, the only thing really that appeals to me is the qwerty keypad. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Got rid of mine after 3 months. But the IPhone has a qwerty keypad..... With the HTC I have, you can use either the Keyboard or screen, and if you use the screen it does not have to be Qwerty.

Simonez Posted January 31, 2010 Share Posted January 31, 2010 iphone mate! i just got the 3gs and its awesome! great phone. does everything! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Saunders Posted January 31, 2010 Share Posted January 31, 2010 Nokia 3310 Nah in all seriousness, my girlfriend has an iPhone and im always downloading apps! There is so many fun games and stuff on there. But the HTC Lee posted looks good. Best bet is to have a shop about mate, see what contract offers you can get and as mentioned haggle them against eachother. They NEED customers mate so should be easy.

wwwd Posted January 31, 2010 Share Posted January 31, 2010 You made a decision yet then Mike? And who voted for the Blackberry? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
