To be fair (and harsh)
If you haven't got £250 in your account is taking on a £40 a month contract the wisest thing to do?

Just saying like....

I think it might be £20, but I normally pay £25 for traffic updates etc. Plus I couldn't lower as I'd lose Unlimited Data I use that the most.

I might have £250 in my account - just I don't want to spend it on a bloomin' phone, but would be prepared to pay a bit extra every month to get something better than I have.

I don't look at it as in buying £250, then changing monthly rolling contract.

I currently have ~£25 taken from my account every month, so I want to know for £5 more which is the best phone to get? And then the opinion of whether the iPhone is worth £15 extra? So far I've seen no justification as to why the iPhone is better than anything else on the market.

What's wrong with your E51 anyways? If it does everything you want it to, why not stick with it and just lower your simplicity tarrif or swap to T-mobiles rolling contracts (which might work out cheaper).

Because it's shit for browsing basically. And I fancy a change. This is a luxury more than a necessity.

Not unless it's went up in price since I got it last month, not through o2 though, they have went from best network to thieving cunts in one fell swoop.

Can get it free for £30 month, but it's likely to be a 24month contract.

Eitherway, quidco what ever you get as you might be able to save a fair amount

I wish the E72 had some kind of roller ball or tracker pad on it. And wasn't on business only tariffs

O2 does seem to be expensive now though. iPhone ruined them imho

I looked at the e72, and actually bought an e55 but the screen on both is exactly the same resolution as the e51 so it's a waste of time.

I've still got my e51 which I use regularly and i've got an e71 for work, resolution of the desire is a million times better for web browsing.

Isn't it basically:

If you are cool - iPhone

If you aren't cool but want to think you are by trying to not be cool - Other phone

I paid 300 for my iphone (in Jan) then got a o2 simplicity deal with a cashback deal so it works out at £6.67 a month for 12 month .
