I work for HP and we are on Vodafone corporate accounts. Have tried 5 different phones in as many years, and I would say it comes down to personal preference . IOS 5 is just as good as the latest Android OS. The phones I like the most are the Samsung Galaxy SII and the iPhone 4S.

Currently using the 4S as I bought a brand new/sealed unlocked one for £150 :-))

ummmm what :ohmy:

I have never had a htc phone survive a 24 month contract intact and I've had them for a good 6 years, always little things have broken, until my latest one (desire) where the front fell off at about 13 months and without the metal cover the edge of the front protective screen cracked across, got it for another 6 months and it looks trashed already :tongue:
 
I would double think switching from Three to Vodafone. I used Vodafone for many years but the service got worse and worse. I now have my iPhone on Three (with the unlimited data package) and my iPad on Vodafone. I spend a lot of time connecting the iPad via the Personal Hotspot on the iPhone to the Three network because I get so much better performance even if I have a full Vodafone signal on the iPad and one bar of Three signal on the iPhone. I have watched iPlayer via Three with one bar of signal and often I sit there with no data happening with five bars on Vodafone. T-Mobile/Orange is somewhere in the middle in performance. I haven't tried O2.
 
Also depends on what you need?

I use a Motorola Defy as I wanted something durable, waterproof and bike proof

It has been in the bottom of panniers and bar bags, got soaked in sudden rain storms, dropped in puddles and mud, and even fell out of my pocket and bounced along the road.

It still works ... an IPhone or HTC wouldn't

My Htc desire s is great, it has turned itself off the odd time but not for weeks now.
 
Having killed, one way or another, pretty much all of my previous phones over the past 7 or 8 years including the not-smartphones and then a HTC Wildfire that scraped 13 months of service before the screen dying did for it(although it has been resurrected and is back in service with someone else now) I opted for a Defy. 7 months in and, touch wood, it's still surviving. I use it a lot, and treat it dreadfully.

Always had Nokia. My 1st phone was one of these

all the up to my current N8. Can't beat the 12 MP camera and Carl Zeiss lens. OS is likely to be the last Symbian I have but have no problem with it. I can use dropbox with files for work. Blue tooth to and from my Dell laptop (a Latitude D400 2nd hand off fleabay). Sports tracker is pre-installed and works a treat. It's my sat-nav, I also used it on holiday in Greece last summer. Free map downloads. I also used it checking e-mail and lottery results while I was away.

I love Nokia's :biggrin:.
