    What phone?

    Well mine phones broke(has been for a month or so now, screen ) so im looking for a new phone, saw the new samsung tocco ultra and thought it was quite good but still £25 a month(dont think its out, or just been released). I had a look today and just noticed the LG renoir for £15 a month on vodaphone ! And its only an 18month contract, question is.... do i go for it? Are there any other phones to look for and is the renoir good? Battery and camera are the main aspects for me personally.

    Any help is appreciated.

    Re: What phone?

    I got myself the SE C905 recently and it's not a bad phone. The camera is quite good however do not I am not photo buff...the pictures it takes are good enough for me. I've had to charge it twice in 8 days, first time was when I got the phone and the battery ran down (partly charged on receipt) and recently a 2 hour charge on sunday morning as it was on about 18%. My sister has the Samsung Tocco (not the ultra) and I can't get on with the touchscreen however it is quite a nice phone to look at.

    Re: What phone?

    yeh the ultra has slider and touch screen along with 8mp camera . Looked at thr 905 and liked it personally but its a bit expensive(low budget i have). Saw the renoir for only &#163;17 on a 12month contract(just after posting xD) so it makes it about &#163;210 after the year. The 905 is 36 a month for a 12month contract, or else id get it. Any slide phones other than the ultra and 905 out? With atleast 5mp camera and <20 a month .

    If it's a redemption one send copy of the statements recorded, you can't change tariff and other than that they are ok, I'll refer you if you want (think we both get &#163;50)

    Re: What phone?

    hmm, if i get a referral does that mean quidco is void? If not then yes . Dont need to change tarrifs and cashback redemption is fine as its normal for me, do dap give refurbished phones? CW guy said thats how they are cheap(i doubt that ). Cheers.
