Help me make a decision lol

Well to cut a long story short ive just won 100quid so i was thinking about buying a skate to add to my collection, but was wanting to know from skate users how the handset is on a day in day out basis, basically is it worth the money or should i just go for the blade 2.

I currently use a blade so was just wanting to know what the users think of it.

I know there are reviews on youtube etcetc but i wanted to get a response from people who actually use it day in day out.

Personal preference really. They are basically the same device. Do you want a bigger screen or are you happy with the size of the Blades screen? That's the real question here!

You note that you have a Blade already so, as I see it, the Blade II isn't that much of a difference to justify the purchase.

However the screen size alone makes the Skate a worthy upgrade from my Blade. The extra things that the Skate comes with, apart from the flash on the camera which is always welcome, are a bonus as it was the much bigger screen that has made the purchase worthwhile for both myself and my wife.

So much so that I would be very reluctant in moving back down to anything smaller now that I have got used to a 4.3" screen.

If the Skate had not been on the market, and more importantly for me been able to unlock, I would have kept with the Blade and ignored the Blade II.

As you live in the UK do what I did and buy it from the Orange shop as you get a huge goodie box thrown in as well, which also would apply for the Blade II.
