Due for an upgrade in the next month or so, what phone would you recommend and why?
Any advice would be appreciated. Cheers lads.

I work for o2 and I have a Sony Ericsson X10. I normally dislike sony ericssons but the software is made by Google so its the android OS which is extremely reliable. I have loads of apps on my phone that I have downloaded for free. I barely use my laptop now, I use my phone to browse the internet and post on forums. Fantastic camera too.

If you don't want to be sucked into the 'apple phenominan' or however you spell it, then go for an android phone. Some good ones other than the x10 are the HTC Desire and the Samsung Galaxy s. The Galaxy is the newest one out and despite disliking it at first, I have to admit its an awesome piece of kit!

What network you with?

iPhone 3gs? I wouldn't bother. Its not as good as the new androids. The new androids are 10 times faster than the 3gs and have better specs.

iPhone 4 only just beats the HTC Desire for specs.

:lol: Quality :lol:

I can upgrade from next week also on Orange, Was looking at that new Sony Ericcsson Satio with the 12.1meg camera which would be great for me as I am snap happy, Never been one for internet on the phone really but that could change really depending how easy it is but just wondered if their was any other phones people would recommend but it would have to come with a good camera.

I woukd seriously reconsider the Satio. Some people have been lucky with them, but in the first week they were released, 29,000 were sold and 27,000 were returned. Absolutely awful phones. Full of faults and bugs. They were so bad, Carphone Warehouse (who love conning people) removed them from the shelves.

You really can't go wrong with a 8mp camera. Aslong as the phone has a quality screen too. If the phone has a good camera and a poor screen, there's no point in having a good camera.
