Hi

I've broken my phone, again.

My contract is up for renewal. I am currently on vodafone with a N97 mini (A dead one, it was a shit phone.) unlimited texts, unlimited internet and 500 mins for £32 p/m.

Could someone point me in the direction of the best smart phones/ contracts/ pay as you go deals out there? I don't want to pay more than what I'm paying really and don't want to get lumped with a shit phone again.

Cheers. Thumbs Up

I believe 3 are doing a 16GB iPhone 4 for £35 a month with 2000 texts, 2000 minutes and unlimited data (no fair usage policy). There may be an up front £60 too, I can't remember.

I only know this cos it caught my eye recently when I toyed with the idea of upgrading my iPhone 3G. I've since decided not to bother as after 3 years my phone is still like brand new.

Someone will be along in a minute to tell you to avoid iPhones at all costs.

Avoid an iPhone at all costs. Go Android. Android FTW.

On another note, I just tried to order an Xperia Arc and Three appear to have stopped the contracts, you can only buy sim free now for like 400quids.

Rubbish.

Samsung Galaxy S 2 is up there atm. One of the best phones available. Most networks doing deals for £30ish a month.

iPhone is a plain, bad investment. Karma
