darkember 0 Posted July 21, 2011 Don't go for the Sony Erricson Android many seem to come back faulty. However the Android system is far better than the IPhone system. My son has the Samsung Android & to be honests its really good Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Brilliant phone, my next one will be the LG Optimus 2X for sure ( 8mp camera, and LG cams are brill ) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
firehawk 0 Posted July 21, 2011 HTC will be good for what you want. I've just ordered a Samsung Galaxy s2 which should be here tomorrow. Most shops say that it is an iPhone beater. I was going to go for the HTC Sensation but the Samsung just beat it on internal memory and the type of screen used. I do like the weather widget on the HTC's tho. When the weather is wet outside, you get rain and a wiper sweeping on the screen. That could easily keep me entertained for hours. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

trebor4460 0 Posted July 21, 2011 Htc desire hd, had it about 7 months now and think it's the best moby I've had so far, battery life is only a problem if u have a problem with charging it up every night, mine last a day and I use it heavily. 8 mega camera and hd 720p vid, robust too with a metal body..

smilinjack 0 Posted July 28, 2011 Thing is, phones are getting bigger again. I looked at a Samsung Galaxy. Belting phone but I see where it got it's name-it's as big as a chocolate bar. I'll stick with my crappy little Samsung that I scrounged off my son for the time being I reckon. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I love mine. the only problem is there seems to be no choice to have a traditional text keypad. It's all qwerty. Other than that, it's brill. Much easier to use the interweb with a larger screen too.
