im 18, this is how people type isnt it? (unless yor're complaining about grammer etc.)
No. Not really.
and as stated its been a while since ive ever bought a phone. so its not common that i bump into reviews like that,..
yes, most recommended the Nexus S, but didnt really give much detail about why. 0.0?
Its newer. It has better hardware. Its battery is similar if not better than a second hand 3GS. Its software is more advanced than the slightly laggy updated iOS that runs on the 3GS devoid of some iP4 features still.
reason im getting PAYG is because contract seems a lot, expensive? and ive never had a phone on contract. =/
or maybe i should start to?
Contracts aren't really expensive as you have to remember you get all the minutes/data and texts thrown in, if you use them, it doesn't work out too badly unless you get a really bad deal. Same as anything else really.
its basically for college/uni. but i will probably use it often to listen to music/movies/internet.
e.g. like 'reflux' said:
"Out of 3GS and Nexus S, I'd say Nexus S. Much better hardware tbh."
yes. hardware is better on Nexus. but its 16GB max (15GB really from my friend whos got the Nexus S), no extended memory (for £400-450),
where as 3gs has 32GB (twice the storage) for £300-350
so u tell me..whats the best choice. and why.
Isn't it obvious then? If 16GB storage isn't going to be enough, why are you even considering the Nexus S? There are other phones out there than just those two. Plenty are better, and plenty are worse.
You are not going to get a phone to watch movies on that will have a long and fruitful battery life. Nearly all the new phones will crash and burn if you start having the screen on all the time playing video. Simple fact.
I'd honestly say a 32GB iPhone 4 is your best (and most expensive) option. Excellent quality, excellent screen, very good battery, superb camera and video recording, iPod = awesome, software you'll like, etc.
The HTC Desire HD would also be worth a look, as despite people complaining about the battery its actually quite ok and it has expandable storage (remember, at extra cost) and decent enough hardware.
Some phones for you to look at then, and please, read the reviews I've linked -

And... breathe. Please no more stupid questions.
