Ahhhhh!


(and yes it was haha)

 

[LECTER]

Wow, all these people with 1 year contracts is making me jealous. Will be another 1 year for me.

Year and a half for me!!

Who knows what will be out then...

I'll be getting and Android OS phone though!!

I don't do contracts with phones any more, I just buy phones unlocked and sim free then get a cheap sim only contract.

 

[SUroot]

I looked at that when o2 were dragging their feet but it worked out about the same over the same period at the time.

As I didn't have the outlay initially, I didn't. Now o2 have changed their sim only contract, .I wish I had done it and could just roll over.

Not sure what ill do when the time comes as the o2 network us best for me

Yeah, it certainly doesn't save me much, if any, money. It's just about increased flexibility really, and getting a phone that isn't network locked and loaded with cr@pware.

Yeah. But also if you want to upgrade early, you sort of spend more money as you are.mo longer depreciating the cost over 18 or 24 months, but 12

Got my Desire when it was first released, love it, love it to bits, miles better than mine or my mates iphones, but..... took ownership of my desire HD at the weekend, ,,,stunning amazing, fast, clear, well made, my mate at work has a galaxy s, but is jealous of the DHD, bought my wife a desire z to replace her G1, that is also a fantastic phone, the build quality is superb,all other makes are plasticky, horrible., as for windows 7, tooooooo many short comings, no bluetooth, no removable storage, just apple but in another name, android is the only way to go and HTC have quality. as for 4G, we dont even have 3g in this country,( before you all start saying we do,,, we dont, its 2.75G), full 3G is a while away yet, so what is the point of 4G if it has no wavelength to use?.the unibody of the DHD gives the phone a feel of solidity while its size is not a problem, how many people use only one hand anyway?.

What country are you in? In the UK we're 3.5G, and I consider that behind the curve.

Location: hillingdon,just east of ireland

Can't see that from the app.

No idea what he is talking about them

 

[Dudditz]

Still got 18 months or so on my contract

Look forward to seeing what is on the market when the time comes though.

Will definitely be getting an android phone, that is certain.

 

[Roxolid]

i said that we have 2.75g in this country. ok my mistake, we have 3g, but coverage is not good, as for 3.5g(hsdpa)coverage is worse,and LTE (4g) is years away,
why by a 4g phone when it will be obsolete (style,cpu,screen,)by the time it works?.
Many phones flaunted now as 4g are not,they are 3.5 or 3.74g.
but as usual i'm sure someone will start to argue the toss about that,
never mind,my next phone after my desire was the other two desires, end of story.

No, now you've clarified your argument, I agree.

 

[Demonhotrod]

I still have until the 10/05/2012 before I can upgrade
Im sure there will be a few new Android handsets by then haha

 

[Klaynos]

Had my desire since April... Also have a one year sim only contract, to make the phone cost effective I'd have to sell it after one year for

 

[Sheshnag]

Upgrading in Aug-Sep 2011. Probably will be Atrix.

 

[Nagrom]

I won't be replacing mine till next year, but I'm hoping the HTC Scorpion/Olympus is out by then. Failing that possibly the Desire HD, Nexus S, or the new LG Optimus. I'll have to wait to see what's out when my contract is up.

Regardless of what phone it is, it'll DEFINATLY be another Android. That's for certain.
Andy.

 

[kopkiwi]

LG Optimus 2X

Though the SE Arc looks the sexiest and it seems they have worked out all the software problems of the X10, I love hardware specs of the LG, it looks an absolute beast of a phone.

 

[SiHa]

Got to wait until April 2012, maybe I'll start looking next Christmas!

 

[NorthernNoel]

Mine doesn't run out till October but at the moment there's nothing around that really interests me. Desire Z is too similar to what I have the HD looks too big. Nexus S doesn't support SD cards and I have a 32GB one in my Desire. 'Downgrading' to 16GB doesn't interest me.

If there was something to interest me I'd like something with:
More internal memory so I don't run out of space for apps constantly.
Better speaker - using a San Fran whilst my Desire is away and the speaker is louder!
Still support for SD, no point in paying for storage that I already own.
Gapless playback for MP3 - May arrive in Honeycomb, who knows.

If nothing tickles my fancy then i'll probably just get a giffgaff sim for my Desire. No point in getting something when the Desire is pretty good anyway.

 

[alinver]

My next phone(in a few months)will defiantly be Android and probably HTC. The build quality of both HTC phones I've had is second to none and I had the original grey brick with the suitcase back in the 80s!

One thing is for sure I'll never take out a contract with Orange again, dire just dire service.
