right then, i hate mobile phones. Lets get that out of the way upfront, i dont have my own I only have a work one. Work have now banned text messages, photo's and internet however so it looks like i will have to get my own.
Two choices.
Something shit that takes photo's
Something fancy i can use the internet, watch footie on and take photo's.
Everyone at work says Iphones are shite so i thought i would ask you lot, anything i need to know? How much data allowance would i need to be able to watch footie on my phone? (I have skygo)
help me Obiwankenobenil (and the rest of you) you are my only hope

iPhones really, really aren't shite. The new 4S is easily the best product on the market, but it's damn expensive whether you buy it outright or get it on contract. Plus the 5 is imminent. Probably they meant the Blackberry is shite and that would be true. So somewhere in between is the Galaxy.
Orange 36 on the iPhone 4 (not 4S) isn't a bad deal. A free iPhone 4, 600 mins, 3000 texts and 500MB data for £36 per month.

For apps. Some people like to download around 2.5 million apps and then only ever use one of them. There's video too, the iPhone is shit hot at video and will do 720p on the 4 and full HD on the 4S - that eats up a chunk of memory.

WiFi is free, doesn't eat into the allowance and there are plenty of hotspots available now. Certainly beats reading copies of magazines from 2007 in the doctor's waiting room. In fact there's an app to diagnose your illness which saves you going in the first place. Plus the iPhone is pretty rugged so you can use it to bash your teeth out which saves on trips to the dentist too. You can't do that with a Blackberry.

Not much difference between the 4 and 4S, the latter has higher quality video, a new operating system by default (which you can update for free anyway) and voice control (which I bet doesn't work anyway). 4S a bit pointless unless you are into serious video.

I upgraded to a 4S a couple months back after using the 3GS for nearly 2 years, that was an awesome bit kit. Happy with my 4S so far, it's pricey but I guess iPhone users are bound to eat up a lot of data.
My brother has the Galaxy S2, which is fantastic as well. It's certainly the best iPhone alternative out there.
Quite happy with my iPhone 4 which I've had about a month but the S2 Galaxy is also pretty slick.

Depends what you want to do. If you want to browse one page web sites that only have one word on them, 750MB will be fine. If you want to watch video then 750MB will give you an irritating taster of what you are missing.
Just use WiFi. Do you really need to be plugged into the Internet when you are on a crowded train or taking a crap in a public toilet (there are much bigger issues that Internet connectivity when it comes to public toilets).
You want a good 600mins talk and 3000 texts (fairly standard) and forget about data unless you want a silly bill every month. WiFi is free and there are plenty of suckers who don't know how to secure their networks.

Apps - equivalent to computer programs/ software packages on a desktop. Often phone optimised versions of regular software certain websites, so there's an app you can download for the major newspapers, or BBC iPlayer, or games (like Angry Bird), or maps, GPS stuff.
Apps are incredibly important. The world would end without them. Don't listen to those idiots who use their phones to make phone calls - they are clueless.

Can't believe no one has mentioned the Galaxy Nexus Prime! Best phone on the market at the moment, even better than the iPhone... only phones on the radar to beat it are the iPhone 5 and the Galaxy S3 sometime later in the year.
Also comes as a vanilla build, so no network operator (or phone manufacturer bollocks installed... and no waiting for system updates etc)

I don't have a smart phone or even a mobile phone. I just like talking to people who do own them or are thinking of buying one.

Same here. Listening to them banging on about it makes me feel that I've got a life.

If you can't think big and stretch yourself beyond your limits then I guess you just aren't the sort of person who will ever hit the heights of mobile phone ownership. Not that there's anything wrong with a smaller, less ambitious life based around a Samsung. If we were all leaders there would be no followers. So don't feel too bad about what you have done.

So there's still hope.
Don't tell anyone I said so, but that's not a terrible deal on the Samsung which (I suppose) is a brilliant phone.

The only thing i didn't like mate was that its huge! Didn't realise quite how big the thing was.
Also the Nokia is the newest by quite a bit which gives it longevity and after reading all the specs and comparing the things and reading reviews the Nokia does seem the best. Plus Samsung used to sponsor Chelsea
I wont be getting the Iphone as it seems the main things wrong with are the things that are most likely for me to smash it against a wall.
The software on the Nokia is outstanding. I've been using a windows phone for a year and I love it.

I'm very upset, I have to say. Not because of the phone but because this stimulating thread is now likely to fade away. Who else am I going to talk to mobile phones with now? It's a sad day. Maybe if I get a phone too we can talk apps or something like that? Or phone covers, that'd be awesome!
