I have one bit of kit that does my Sat Nav, MP3, Camera, Videos, and is big enough to see easily, so iplayer is cool . Samsung does it easily and is faster than wyayphone with battery life to spare |

I'm gutted as I've had to kick my provider in to touch as they couldn't get the bill correct since March, gave em several attempts to rememedy it. So they're taking my beloved S11 away from me and letting me out of the contract. Huge screen and crystal clear. If you take a contract out and the provider promise BT Openzone WiFi Access then check with them and confirm exactly which BT Openzone they mean. I only had one local to me and that is in a Merc Dealer so not really gonna use it!!! Sales person didnt mention this when I renewed in March. Still gutted the S11 is going back. Battery life os pants but then again it is with all smartphones. Once I started to use the USB cable in laptop at work I could live with the battery life. Upgraded OS to Ice Cream Sarnie but didn't make any difference to me, others may of noticed a difference.
Not sure which way to jump now, might go for a cheap PAG for a while and save the money. Still like the iphone and can get discount on Orange which puts it back in my reach. Jim |

iPhanboys, read the fine print to Apple stuff one day, just because you've paid for it, doesn't mean you actually own and have full control of it! Form over function - no thanks!
Android all the way, let Google take over your life instead of Apple! I've recently received a Sony Xperia Pro with the sliding oot keyboard. Real nice piece of kit, does all I need but I had to buy it out right as non of the useless UK contract people think we want buttons on our phones! |
