Basically been a pay as you go **** for a long while, using terrible phones for a long long time (current is Samsung D500). Now I figure is the time to get started on a contract phone.
Reading plenty of other threads it seems obvious that the front runners are the Nokia N95 and Iphone. However im a dirty student and don't fancy getting involved in a 35+ a month contract.
Been looking about http://www.mobile-phones-uk.org.uk at phone reviews and current deals and I'll most likely want to go for O2 400/600 for either 12 or 18months. 18 generally being better? (it seems slightly better in terms of like a pound saving per month but is this really much better than 12month contracts in long term benefits?)
Phone's i've been looking at have been the LG Viewty / Samsung G800 / Nokia N81. These generally work out around 20-25 a month, a range I wouldn't really want to go over.
In terms of my needs i've only really used a phone for texting and calling! An additional features are a bonus but what do people find they always need/look for in a new phone? Want a decent phone I won't be dying for my contract to end with!
Cheers for any help
*Just noticed the N81's camera is only 2Meg, im guessing this is far worse quality than the other's 5Meg cameras? Liked the look of that phone
