[KalamityKel]

What are your choices and what is taking your fancy?

"virgin say im due for a 'free' upgrade - i can choose any on their website. what should i look for?"

...being tied into another 18 months of contract with that bearded prig branson would be top of the list of fings to avoid

"what should i look for?"

I hate to be circular but I guess it depends on what you're looking for, what type of phone, what are your priorities, call quality, battery life, music, camera etc.

Right now HTC One is getting the best reviews of the latest top end smart phones. I got the Galaxy S4 the other day which is very jolly nice too.

[Shawny]

Have you found a one already?

[MarttiMalmi]

I can tell you that best phone is Nokia 7110 with WAP (a bit like "internet" on your phone ok?) and sliding cover like the one you can see in the matrix with keenu reevs.

I like my samsung galaxy S3 but it depends on what you'll use it for. Do you use your phone for emailing/facebook etc? Or just for calls? What size do you want? Are you bothered about looks?

[alice]

thanks for ideas - i'm going to check them on virgins site

looking for something light back pocket size

My old S2 was unnoticeable, same can't be said of its successors.

Stick with your current phone (if it still works) and get much cheaper monthly rates. No such thing as a 'free' upgrade.

I'm typing this on my 3 year old HTC desire and it still works perfectly weklwklirwihri

I've tried many, many phones and was quite anti-iphone until I got one. That's the best phone.

Do not get an iPhone 5

Come on, who wouldn't want any one of these ?

Google Nexus 4. I've owned both iPhone and Samsung Galaxy in the past. Nexus just as good. Half the price and without all the Samsung own brand rubbish on it.

[El Pibe]

google are bringing out a version of the S4 as it goes with the bog standard android.

The Most Reliable and always gets a signal is called a Telephone and plugs in the wall.

[alice]

look thanks all who replied ... ordered my new phone today ...galaxy fame ..was i wrong

[malumbu]

I neeed to move into the mid 2010s but don't want to increase my very low monthly charge. Views on entry level smart phones please.

I was a very early adopter funnily enough of mobile telephony but unlike my kids still see it as the means to speak to people on the odd occasion.

[uncleglen]

I would research as much as possible on line (btw O2 have the best reception in my experience) Then narrow it down to 2 or 3 models according to what you want then go to the shop to get the feel- I did this 2 years ago and got an HTC Desire S- battery lasts most of the day unless using the gps or flash on the camera.

Best Phone EVER .. I used to have one.. when I worked for BT.
