New phone
My contract is due to expire next month, and from now on-wards, I can chose a new phone to replace my blackberry.
Can anyone recommend and nice phones?
I don't really want an iphone 5.
Below are some of the contenders:
HTC One
Xperia Z
Galaxy S III
Blackberry Z10
Needs decent camera, and functions really.
Cheers

Phone section douchebag!
Anyway, I have an S3. Took a while to get used to it, but now Im used to it I love it. Really quick, plenty of apps (though I dont really use many), great camera, intuitive. I'd read that the battery was pretty shite but I can get more than 24 hours out a charge no problem.

I've got an iphone, does the job for me..
...But brother's Galaxy S3 shits all over it. I'd pick that or the new Note, Samsungs are rocking the phone world right now.
New Blackberry Z10 looks good and it's a welcome step from the company, but everywhere I read it's not Blackberry's finished article just yet, its paving the way for better models later.

It is. Only reason I got one was because my mate loaned me his for three days,it was ridiculous how quickly I got used to it. If I hadnt tried it for a day or two, Id never have considered it because of the size.

Defining "better" is a hard thing to do. Ive used a mates nawphone 5, and prefer the S3 to it, but thats just my preference. Apple owners/users seem to think their stuff is the be-all and end-all though.
Go into a shop to get an idea of size for the s3. It is big, but doing everything on it is so easy due to the screen size, particularly browsing the net.
If cameras are your bag, you want a Nokia 808: it has a 42Mp camera. Yes, 42.

You get used to the size of the S3 very quickly. I don't even see it as big anymore. I just see my gfs iPhone as small and prefer the screen size of the S3
