Right chaps, after damaging my screen on my phone, again, I am looking to replace it, as paying £60 for a screen doesn't sound too appealing considering I only had it fixed 2 weeks ago, for £60. The phone is a HTC wildfire and I don't really see the point in having spent £120 in repairing the thing so looking for a replacement.

Looking to spend about £150-200

Thanks in advance.

The first time I was at work and dropped a bottle onto the screen and the bottle bounced off the screen causing the LED to die
This second time I was carrying it into the kitchen and I dropped it :/

Seems pointless spending £200 on a phone when you'll have your old one sitting around doin nothing when you could spend £60 to have a phone you obviously like and be £140 better off?
