iphone, blackberry or something else?

Hi there
I need to upgrade to a new phone.

Iphone, blackberry or something else?

Or are they not worth the hype and should I just carry on just getting a pay monthly thing? I need 1000 minutes per month ideally.

O2 offers iphone 2 year contract for £45/month. Everyone says they like the iphone, don't they?

Here's mine

It's brilliant. I can phone or be phoned by literally anybody, as long as either I know their phone number or they know mine. That gives me billions of potential conversations at my fingertips!

I get your point. But I was already paying £45/month for a samsung but I can now get an iphone for this amount. It is a 2-year contract though so will cost £1080 over 2 years. Oh my.

anyway lads, isn't it better to have a decent internet on your phone then when you go and contract you don't use their internet connection on your pc so much? and on the train or in the hotel room the iphone can store music or videos for you to watch?

That’s almost half a bottle of my favourite burgundy! I wouldn’t waste money like that my dear fellow!

Had a Blackberry for a few years & it's good for push email capabilities but I miss having something that's compatible
with my desktop applications like word, excel etc so I might go for something Windows based with similar capabilities to the IPhone,
if such a thing exists.

I have never owned a raspberry. But i love my iphone. I dont use mine alot as i work from home, but the battery might not last 2 years if you give it heavy use. As it is sealed you have to send the phone off to get it replaced.

From experience:
iphone - great computer (web and mail), ok phone, crap camera
blackberry - great email, crap web, great phone, crap camera

From looking at what's available now, I might consider going Android but I use macs every day so the integration to iphone would probably still win me over.

And my new iPhone has just turned up!

It's lovely...
