Yeah OneS is definitely big enough for me. It's still a little large sometimes but the OneX just felt cumbersome. No S3 to try when i got mine though, i should nip into a shop at some point to have a play
Which was fixed rather quickly considering they changed the design, and isn't a problem with every phone. Plenty for a lot of (most?) people. Again, an issue that certainly doesn't affect everyone.
But i guess everything else is perfect if you ignore the problems the OneX has, the major signal issues the almighty iphone 4 had along with camera problems, and no doubt issues with the S2 and S3 at some point

I mean, a Defy+? Really?!
Well I played with the S3 in a shop, people say the X is even bigger in the hands which is just not on. Its a shame top end android now means stupid size. I actually wish there was something in iphone size with decent specs.
Its getting delivered tomorrow.
You'll have Nexus kicking your door down
It's all subjective and I don't think there is the perfect phone or we'd all have one Apple might say the iPhone 5 may be that phone <dives under table>
Get Three to give you a Xperia S too see if that's any better? The Defys reception wasn't that much better then the One S tbh, just more stable/no deathgrip.
Threes coverage in your area is probably the biggest issue.
Yup, it was a cracking phone (I bet most apps feel like they're running through treacle now)
Motorola can **** themselves for using gingerbread as a hardware upgrade vehicle, I'll never buy one again unless Google do something drastic.
Yeah, I don't think I could go any bigger than the GN, GS 3 (reason for them is that they feel comfortable to hold as opposed to the 1X), hopefully will see big screens, but with very little bezel thus keeping the mobile small at the same time.
I think that is one of the rumours for the design of the iphone 5, big screen with very little bezel
@richy
Oh, I thought you tried your sim in your wife's 4s. Well then it could just be a problem with the network and phone.
What does the coverage checker on 3's site show that you should be getting?
I would get another SIM from like T-mobile or someone who offers much better reception and see it gets on with the S.
Yeah nokia are handsets are top quality as well. Were top dog for many many years.
Unfortunately all devices have problems when first released, it is just a question of how quickly they fix the problems. If the one S was the intended flagship device and receiving more updates, I reckon the signal would be improved by now.
Egg his house before that as well

................
Unfortunately they sell that line so well and all the apple fanboys actually get brainwashed by it and believe it
Guaranteed there will be a problem with the iphone 5 as well when first released.
Hmm, no idea what is going on then. You should be getting a better signal with the GS 2 (haven't seen any one reporting issues with the signal unless they have rooted and flashed different modems etc.)
then you may just have to use motorola devices )
options are just to hang on to the S and use the defy + till/if HTC fix the issue, sell the S and GS 2 and get something else, maybe the XS, GN or some other device (although if the GS 2 is suffering as well, then I can't see the other devices being much better, don't do anything till you unlock the 4s and try your SIM out in it, if it is the same
Any hints on unlocking an iPhone 4S?
Be nice if HTC came up with a fix. I'd be interested in trying a One X as there seems to be little muttering about signal reception there? It's a little on the large size for me maybe though nearly did opt for it and got the One S instead. I used to have a HTC Desire and had no signal issues with that though was on T-Mob. I'll get a T-Mob payg sim and try that and get the iPhone unlocked. I'll report back on both those options.
Speaking of iPhones some how came across the page below today

Now I wonder if the iPhone 5 will look like that? Sorry to use such foul language Nexus
Your network will have to do it. Apple control the codes to unlock them and the network have to request them from Apple.
It may be free however, but it depends.
Yep, the One X signal is very solid. It gets a signal where my S2 and Sensation cannot.
Probably not. There are about a million various mockups of it, so assume they're all fake until The Verge and Engadget say otherwise.
Apple have to do a good job of it though, and Jony Ive is possibly the best tech designer in the world, so I'm expecting it to be awesome.
What does 3's website coverage checker say for your areas? Good or bad reception?
You mustn't have that great coverage by 3 if the GS 2 is poor/worse.
Could be an option then? What do you think of the X as you have one?
Something doesn't add up.
If their mast is right outside your house essentially, then you should be getting full reception with both phones easily.
IIRC Tesco use giff gaf, which is pretty much o2 so again, if your wife's 4s gets good signal and you say that it is very poor then it just makes no sense
Always take their graph with a pinch of salt though, so even though it says good indoors and outdoors, it probably means you will just about get signal, not full reception as for me it shows the same yet all 3 mobiles on 3 get virtually no reception (1-2 bars if were lucky), their coverage map is terrible, o2 etc. are much much better. 3's is way too vague, thank god I am of their **** network!
It's great, I have no real serious complaints about it.
If you aren't too worried about the battery life, I'd easily recommend it over the One S as the performance differences are small, and the software is exactly the same. The screen makes up for all that anyway (for the most part). Okay, it's pretty big but that's a bonus as well as a negative and it doesn't take much getting used to.
Give one a try if you haven't already.
How do I get one to *Try* - apart from buying one then sending it back within the statuary period.
