Your next phone?

[Guest Frankish]

oh dear..parents eh!? ;) I'm not a fan of the desire..I had one for a whole 24 hours on loan..and it burned my ear lol :(

My Desire couldn't get 3G in my home even if i forced it and my San Fran constantly has H with a minimum 2 bars signal. Strange eh? I had to go about a mile from my home before my Desire would hit the H.

They are fickle creatures..my SF only works on 2g :(

[Guest trishmac]

Ordered my SF on the 9th, supposed to arrive on the 17th, still not here but if it ever does come I quite fancy the playstation phone for my next handset.

Need to check that one out :( and welcome to Modaco ;)

Night S :( x I have no life so I'll be here for a while lol

[Guest Matty-p]

Well guys..I know it's early days still ;) but do you have your beady eyes and ears set on your next handset yet? > ;) < I have a little fancy for the nexus S but unless O2 have it on their list for settings it's a no go..as i've gone almost insane with my half-working SF :( (still easily my best phone so far tho ;) ) x

i was thinking the nexus s when all the roumors were going around but now we know it is a single core im wating out for samsung / lg to release a dual core or higher clocked cpu based phone with the 4" oled in january i find the sf's screen a little small and the hardware a little slow @ multitasking . may just keep the sf and get a really high spec tegra honeycome dual core tablet if there are any nice one's at ces if none are released then i may have to talk to an american friend about getting me a adam or get a advent vega

I should add from before. Something like a BB Pearl would be my 2nd phone possibly and the SF my first. It has been a long time. I actually came from a Motorola FONE ... which is a simple and sturdy device. Although briefly was using an Alcatel unit. Mobile phones have simply not been a priority for me over the years and only really started using them just over a year ago.

They are now mini pcs in all but name, and that's ok, but I don't really fancy having a near half grand payg unit broken or stolen either.

As far as Android goes there doesn't seem to be that much to choose and I feel I've made the right choice in the OSF. Android is like the PC market, there's zillions of units. Overwhelmingly they don't look particularly stylish or that much different to one another. They look like consumer electronics which is what they are. The OSF is no different, other than it packs a lot for the price.

It's great to have a smart phone that can play a few 3d games and so on, but I don't want to be doing too much of that with it. Just want to be able to phone people, be phoned and text , maybe some web and email. Wifi and being able to type decently were also a consideration fro me. Everything else is a bonus.

The OSF covers that greatly.

With the unoffical ROM upgrades, and some level of bus/cpu overclock this will be fine for ages.

[Guest curl66]

i have a sgs 9000, got it as warranty exchange from VF for my Nokia 5800. Its really good but original software sucks. wouldt bought it for 450 euros.

got a swiss blade,too, as my "private" phone. also supplied some friends with it. for 85 euro its fantastic :( just need froyo.

because of my VF contract i get a new phone in feb anyway. so i think about a galaxy tab or something similar. definitly larger screen than sgs 9000. because i did not need a third phone ;)

[Guest Raspa]

Nothing until a decent dual core phone comes out. I definitely don't include anything by LG in decent.
