Which phone?

[Terry172]

Samsung Galaxy I7500

LG Viewty Smart

HTC Hero

Anybody who has one of these could you please let me know what you like and don't like about the phone please

If the LG Viewty is anything like the old one, then it's a pile of shite.

And from the people that I've seen with the HTC, they say it's not bad, but gets laggy when they use it sometimes.

After reading more into the reviews it seems the LG phone is a camera phone more than anything else which is not what I want. I am after a phone that allows me to surf the net whenever and where ever I am without hassle.

That said I have noticed the Blackberry 8900 curve and although it is not touch screen like the rest, it comes out cheaper each month with my upgrade on O2......would anyone recommend this phone for the internet etc?

Is that the internet or the phone in general?

 

[Galzzly]

That was the phone in general, tbh.

I'm surprised that no-ones been in and said get an iPhone yet, and seeing as you're wanting a phone for the internet, that'd be what I suggest. I just got the iPod Touch, and going on that for web browsing, it's pretty damn good. Especially if you're after touch screen.

N-series Nokia?

 

[young_lew]

iPhone or if you have to the HTC Hero

 

[Terry172]

Have been looking at the Iphone deals but to me these are not cheap and I want a phone to be a phone at the end of the day, which I can connect to the internet on and not one that started life as a music gadget and has been adapted (very well) to be used as a phone to. Plus the fact I already have an ipod means I don't an itouch or iphone .....

N-series imo and experience are s**te!!!!

What do people think and have people tried the Samsung i8910 HD?

Is there a phone out there I am missing all together :-/

How did you manage to get it free on this tariff Terry??
According to the O2 site, it's £96.89.

Be interested in your haggling technique to get this deal, as my contract is up for renewel on Saturday.

Probably a reconditioned unit...

Yes that is correct and the only way you can tell this, is by the O2 box it comes in instead of the Apple one. The reconditioned ones are phones that customers did not want within the 14 days they are entitled to send it back, once sent back it goes straight to Apple where they do a complete overhaul of any part that looks used e.g. the front and back face plates are changed, everything wiped off the phone and then latest software loaded on. Very happy with the phone and saving myself £96 tbh
