but phones are very personal to people and what they like.


the only thing that put me off the Arc, S2 and other smart phones of the kind, is the big screen and thiness of the phone itself. im worried id break them!

3 of my mates ad my dad have it. >.< goddammit I want one!!

[Robin91]

I've got the HTC Sensation and it's a good phone, pretty much identical bar a few things in terms of spec to Samsung S2. I've rooted mine now which makes it run better/faster, can do it with most Android phones.

I'd probably take an S2 given the chance to change, I did try to get it swapped but Phones4U are C U Next Tuesday's so I couldn't. S2 definitely looks nicer, Sensations better built and each have their little pros and cons amongst different things really!

[Jazz]

I've had a play about with the Galaxy S2, and in all fairness it beats the living sh!t out of the iphone 4 and similar in pretty much every way I can think of (except for maybe size and finish).

And to the guys getting or thinking of getting the iphone 4... the iphone 5 is out in a few months time.

[craig180]

My mrs went from an iPhone 3GS to a Gslaxy S. She now has an iPhone 4 after getting sooooo pissed off with the samsung for 3 months.

[foreverwelsh]

sony ericsson xperia arc is a good phone

[dunno]

I've had android, blackberry & an iPhone 4.

Out of the lot I have to say that imo the iPhone was the best but its stupid money for a phone tbh.

Android would be the way I go as its constantly growing and will soon be on par with what apples offering for less money.

Blackberry is just a fad. bbm y0.

I always slated the iphones... got an Iphone4 and couldnt live without the bloody thing now!

I can't stand Blackberrys... the keyboard confuzzled me and the slidey thing annoyed me.

Iphone but..... Love the Apps, Love Safari, the way messages are laid out (well handy when you always forget what you've text people) love how eaxy it is to copy and paste stuff... Just full of win!

[devilsadvocate]

Why do you think Iphones are crap?

What don't they do that an android phone does do?

I have an Iphone 4 and I love it, I can find no reason for me to switch to android

[Randyransford91]

My blackberrys alright does everything i need it for, but at the end of the day it depends what you need your phone for? I rely on my e-mails for work, and with the Blackberry being made for a business purpose (not just for stupid chav bbm) its perfect for me!

[Furio-Gazza]

fail, you really didn't read his post correctly

WTF, i read what he put :S

and my comment was saying what i fort about the iphone when i had it :oops:

[Jamie]

Iphone without a doubt. I had a Blackberry Torch and my G/F has a 9780...

Shit phones, BBM is literally the only thing I miss, it's like the good old days of MSN messenger even though it's hardly any easier to use than text convos, it just works.

The phones look nice-ish but IMO are not made to last. And I can't get my head around the shit cameras and firmware freezes... and lack of updates (not to mention the poor app store system).

I now have a white Iphone 4. The Iphone does everything you could want, ok so it might not be the most technologically advanced phone out there, but they rarely have problems unless miss treated. The housing is made with quality materials so they last and they also retain their value EXTREMELY well.

A Galaxy S2 maybe better in the techy dept but I bet it's not made with the same finesse.

I will be upgradings... to the 5 when it's out :)

[Prickle]

ok, il ask again, whats the pr0s and c0ns of a blackberry and htc?

[Jamie]

Extract BB from my post John...

+ for BB

- BBM
- Some look stylish
- Cheap

- for BB

- Lack of firmware updates (and they ARE needed)
- Shit app store
- Buggy OS's (Always freeze)
- Shizer techy specs, ie processors (in comparisson to competition)
- Always have shit cameras
- Silly little keyboards designed for girls with nails i'm sure...
- Components don't last well under constant use, like trackpads, and keyboards , housing feels cheap and they feel fragile.

+ for HTC

- Android OS, it is cool and seemingly very dynamic (lots of developers on scene)
- Cameras are aite'

- For HTC

- Look shit IMO
- Not built that great 3 pals had them and broke them within a year of average use
- Always big and bulky (unless non android, or lesser spec'd)

[Prickle]

ok my decision for buying one of them has been knocked abit. bros blackberry curve? has been fine so far. Had it a month and constant use.

[Furio-Gazza]

Love the fact you never said the bad things about an Iphone.......

[0rang3peel]

Love the fact you never said the bad things about an Iphone.......

- overpriced
- annoying apple fan boys will love you
- shit battery life (although same on most htc)

[Furio-Gazza]

Camera quality aint that that good,
freezes alot when texting and going though the net,
you drop it an inch and the screen shatters/breakers,

[Jamie]

You will see John, Ive had 5 Blackberry's and I'm a fanny with my stuff and the most common component to go are the trackpads.

Ask him if his phone every freezes, he will experience it as he starts to load his pics on ect.

I'm never going back.

Love the fact you never said the bad things about an Iphone.......

Bad things about the Iphone...

- Cost a funk load of cash
- Battery dies just as quick as opossition... but still in this day and age it's pap... which is a day and a half MAX unless you don't use it often.
- Sort after by the crims, they will pwn you for your Iphonez so make sure you get yourself on MobileME soon to be Icloud. And have insurance.
- Parts are expensive IF they go, but chances of that are very low.

I've never had any issues with my 3 & 4.

[Prickle]

will do.

i just want a cheapsih phone so i can go on fb etc during my breaks at work. :oops: my phone atm, isnt capable of doing that.

[Jamie]

Like I said above maybe not the most technological advanced phone but by far the best ALL rounders. And what the funk are you talking about, ' the cameras not that good...' IT is better than EVERY single Blackberry on the market if we are talking about the 4. Video recording is HD.

Freezing LOLZERZ your kidding right? All of mine have run amazing (must have had some Lemonz*)

I've never had the missfortune of dropping mine, but I have it in a protective case so hopefully it won't die.

[Jamie]

Well,

If you buy a Iphone you certainly will end up using it for more than that lol.

But srsly, if all you want to do is that a BB might not be a bad thing, but if you use your phone often... they are shite.

[Proffitt]

Like Jamie said, camera is better than the BB's. Also, if you want an amzing camera...buy a camera not a phone.

My 3gs has never froze when texting or on the net

My iphone has been dropped coutless of times, it's in crap condition although the screen has never smashed.

As you may of noticed, i do have an iphone i love it ;)

And before you say anything, i did have a BB and loved it tbh. Although when i dropped it twice, the screen smashed...twice.

Once i upgraded to my iphone i thought the BB was crap and would never go back. Defo goig to upgrade to the iPhone 5 when it comes out :A:

[Dannii]

I miss my iPhone sooooo much, but I went over £500 when I was abroad 'cause the data charges are ridiculous and noone bothered to tell me to turn my apps off :wall:

So get an iPhone 4, just don't take it on holiday :y:

Failing that, the Samsung galaxy :)

[Alex]

HTC sensation or SGSII, both dual core phones.
Not sure on iPhone but these can record in 1080p.

[Bound]

- annoying apple fan boys will love you

This plus a million.

If you want a locked down phone and are incapable of operating basic software get a iphone.

If you don't want to pay the premium get a galaxy S II. It's the better phone anyway.

Iphone is user friendly and all that jazz, plus you'll be really fashionable. :afro:

Android is for the pros.

Luckily for you they both come with predective text :y:.

[Proffitt]

So get an iPhone 4, just don't take it on holiday :y:




Or take it on holiday but turn off; Enable 3G, Cellular Data & Data Roaming. so you just have signal :y:

I did that! Honestly but pffft, I dunno what happened, just ridiculous data charges like hell!

[tom_lloyd_4]

Enable 3G, Cellular Data & Data Roaming.

Cellular Data & Data Roaming this is whot you turn off

[nicole_]

HTC sensations awful imo if thats the new one you were looking at
bf's switches off everytime you try take a picture and the apps freeze all the time
so frustrating when you really want to get a picture of something and you miss the chance

[quikydan]

Wait for the iphone5!

[devilsadvocate]

Just to clarify what people have likely 'read online' or 'heard from mates'

I have an Iphone 4

The camera quality is perfectly fine (video is actually good) - If you want a camera, buy one
I have 3g and wifi turned on and on a full charge that lasts 2 days with moderate to high useage
Mine never freezes, although it's not jailbroken so that may be a factor
I have dropped mine a few times from waist height and it seems pretty solid, not a mark on it with a case

Blackberries are not even in the same league as an iphone, you literally cannot make a comparison.
I have owned a BB and I would never ever go back to one, they are for poncy business men.

Never used an andriod so can't comment but the specs online don't show anything amazing that would ever give me a reason to change

That's my honest opinion having owned a BB and two iphones

[Prickle]

so you've basically said nothing about the blackberry?

rofl.

[Dury]

Ive had a galaxy S 2 and its gone in for repair 3 times with the same problem coming back each time it freezes, Happened on my old samsung aswell. I went out and bought a BB and tbh most of my mates have them and the BB messenger for me makes having one worth it.

[Bound]

What is peoples fascination with BBM?

Such a pointless reason to buy a phone.. I have unlimited texts :D. Plus they have apps on every platform that will do what BBM does. e.g. instant message.

Terrible hardware to.

Unlucky on the S2, should of stuck it out and made them give you a new one, then you could laugh in people who bought an iphone's face. Now unfortunately they'll laugh at you.

Phones - Serious business.

I got the s2 repaired & sold it. Im not too keen on android tbh. BBM is the best tho :p but the apps on it are shit. Android is alright just had problems with it so thats why i don't like it. Not had an experience with an iphone so i cant really comment on them :geek:

[W103_A5H]

I have the HTC Desire HD, brilliant phone! screen is cristal clear. Might be a big phone (slightly bigger then the iphone4) but its a nice size screen to have IMO. Its fast, my 2nd HTC and not had a problem with either (had the HTC hero before upgrade). 8 Megapixel cam on the HD Desire, and so far its the best camera i have seen on a phone (rapes the iphone4 camera with an elephants trunk!). Had a play with my mates iphone 4 and cant say i like it all that much. HTC has 7 customizable screens for your fav apps so you dont have to scroll through loads to get to the ones you want unlike iphone. Drop my phones loads and it still works and no cracks, my mate dropped his once on a night out and now he needs a new screen, this also being his 2nd iphone due to the other one breaking. IMO, HTC is the way to go, i have tried the iphone and i dont like it so before you iphone fanboys have a go, yes i have tried it ;) HTC is the way forward.

I literally don't get the obsession with BBM aswel,

you can get an app on android called 'whatsapp' it's exactly the same & everyone has it, plus you aren't a retard blackberry douche.
