Phones4U have started pestering me to upgrade by text message even tho I still have 3 months left on my contract.I have not had dealings with them for nearly 3 years now but they have promised to pay off my existing contract and set up a new one.
The trouble is I cant seem to find a decent handset.

I currently have a SE K850i

Anyone got any ideas.

must have specs include-

A decent camera
Bluetooth
Decent memory or expandable memory
Quick mobile internet


Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated,thank you.

Few things to point out when they say they will pay off your current contract - the contract will still run at your current rate, they will simply give you a cheque for the balance of the line rental only - not your normal usage - you will still need to cancel it, and it will cont to run along side the new one they will give you till your old one ends - so dont go spending the cash back !!

As for a new handset....there are lots of good ones out there....here are a few good ones camera wise:

Sony C902
Samsung U900
Samsung Tocco
Nokia 6220

All have 5MP camera's, good internal memory, fast WAP etc

However, if you really dont have any issues with your current provider, my suggestion is in the last month / when you are out of contact, call and ask to speak to their disconnections dept, in most cases they will do you a deal far better than Phones 4 U can offer you i.e. better handset, better tariff and less monthly line rental.

Hope that helps !

They robbed me once.Said they could only give me so much cashback in store and said a cheque would be on its way.The cheque never arrived and when I contacted customer services they knew nothing of it.Robbing scum

Just as long as its not on three's network, they are crap at customer service.


My friend has said the nokia N96 will be a very handy phone to have.

I am currently on Vodafone and have been for years.Very happy and would not consider going to Three network.Like the look of the N96 just have to wait a bit longer.Usually get some good deals on the build up to christmas.

i am due an upgrade sson too, i am waiting for the SE c905, looks mint!

8MP camera Wi-Fi, sat nav etc..... Sony Ericsson - Mobile phones - Overview - C905

have a Samsung G600 atm, wat a piece of crap phone

[dtrmad2004]

I'd avoid Samsung like the plague. Closest youll ever get to them cheap chinese phones. Open one up and youll see just how cheap they look inside. The slider ribbons ALWAYS go

SE have gone down the pan too, my mate had the c905, that broke and so did the replacement.

N96 does look tempting, Ive got the N95 and it's been a very useful phone.

[Markusss]

The Mrs. has the N95 8GB, very impressive phone indeed, she is pushing me to get the N96...Probably so she can steal it from me lol

[Deano]

Gonna hold out for the N96.
Did anyone understand Alths post:confused:?

[Deano]

[aaamusements]
