I'm going to upgrade my Phone tonight. I quite fancy the HTC Sensation, does any scoobynetter own one of these? Maybe some comment's or dislikes about this phone.
Thanks.

I've just upgraded mine today. Iphone 4.

Orange have a deal on at the moment, that if you or a family member work for the Government / Council etc, you get 25% off monthly bills.

Just got the Iphone 4, Free. 700m, unlimited texts, 750gb, 50MMS & orange maps. All for £30 a month.

Pretty good I thought.

They have a list of qualifying companies. Luckliy for me, my sister works for the Council.

I got the Samsung galaxy s2 last week and all the phone shops say its far better than the sensation plus the s2 has 16gig internal memory and the Sensation only has 1gig.

The phones are much quicker than the 1st galaxy s and using the internet on my data plan I would say pages load as fast as my home internet and I have the 50mb line

HTC are obviously the better phones, but if you can get the deal stilover has, it might be worth thinking about imo

Ok....Now i'm torn.

I have a solution. The Samsung will be released on Monday on Virgin. I have accounts with both Virgin and Vodafone. So i have ordered the HTC Sensation tonight(Gut feeling) and will order the Samsung on Monday with Virgin. I shall compare them both then return the one i don't like.

Phone threads are the new watch threads. And there's only one thing more tedious than a watch thread - a phone thread.

It's not. I walked into the Orange store, and one of the first questions they asked me was "What company do you work for?"

Maybe not everyone (Orange staff) will be bothered to ask, so go in and ask about it.
