Android/Blackberry/iPhone
 
Any advice on which I should go for.. I can see good points about them all, but really can't make up my mind. My brother in law has the HTC Desire which looks pretty snazzy, but is the iPhone/Blackberry better? I really don't know what to go for! :conf:

iPhone if you can afford it, blackberry if you can't.
Just stay away from androids.

Hmm.. A decent camera is important to me. Is the iPhone camera not a bit crappy?

Blackberry's are the best by far.

iPhones are ugly + Androids always crash. There is nothing wrong with Blackberry's once you get used to using the keyboard.

I see all my friends sitting on Facebook etc using their mobiles.. DO they pay to go online or do some contracts include free minutes for that kind of thing?

Yeah you can get it on your contract for it to be free I think. I haven't gotta pay for my internet on mine anyway

I have the iphone 4 and the camera is really good and yes it does have flash.

It all depends on what you prefer and what you want it for, personally i would never have a blackberry because i think they look ugly and i like the apps and touch screen of the iphone.

Only ever seen an android tablet and that was forever refusing to do what we wanted it to.

Obviously im bias to iphone as i have one but its totally your decision

30stone 30-12-2010 07:20 PM

I pod touch (for apps + music connection to the car - so i dont waste battery on my phone)

+

HTC

I get the hd7 soong and it looks amazing, amazing camera etc and my old htc magic is quality.

I phones are good, but expensive, and if you use for music you can run the battery down quickly.

Blackberries are So so ugly, dont even try to defend them.. they just are, these are facts.


So for me id go for a I phone if you got the money Or a new HTC Android phone..

Lee. 30-12-2010 07:24 PM

Thanks everybody so far.. I don't really need it for music as I have a natty 80gb ipod.. The main things for me is a decent camera, easy to text, ability to access emails/fb/etc.

I think I'll go and have alook at contract options :)

30stone 30-12-2010 07:48 PM

Easiest to text id imagine would be blackberry, but i wouldnt buy an ugly phone because its easier to text lol.

Mum got a Wildfire HTC for christmas and its great for checking the weather, news, e mails etc..
All the new ones are especially the new ones.

Iphones are also good for that sort of thing due to having more apps..

Lee. 30-12-2010 08:21 PM

Patrick.. I see you reading this thread! Yay..

Stay? please? We need you to liven things up :D

Is the Wildfire the latest one?

Lee. 30-12-2010 08:22 PM

Bloody hell.. It wasn't THAT long ago that I answered questions like these on modern technology for a living! Things move so fast though!

Go for a Black Berry.

Android, I have never heard of so can't comment on that but really if you're going to go for a good smart phone narrow it down to iPhone or BlackBerry not something like Android and that's due to the fact iPhones and especially BlackBerry's are one of the biggest gadgets out right now in terms of what's being talked about and bought.


iPhone's look good but I mean they're just the iPod Touch with the feature to ring someone.

Just like the iPad is a heavier version of the iPod Touch, Apple seem to do that alot with their products.

I have a Black Berry, You'd find it hard to get use to at first but I've had mine almost a week now and it's brilliant.
The camera is pretty decent on them and the apps are fine and using the Internet is fantastic on it too.


And it also has Black Berry Messenger which is like MSN on your phone.
I'd say go with the Black Berry really, due to the fact it's more unique than an iPhone.
If you wanted to get an iPhone for it's features, seriously go for an iPod Touch they're amazing and cheaper.

Lee. 30-12-2010 11:08 PM

Right how long roughly is 500mb per month of web browsing??

And if I were to have narrowed it down to say the HTC Desire and the HTC WIldfire, which one is better,and why?

\PJ/ 30-12-2010 11:28 PM

iPhone
Blackberry










Android if you want hassle.
