Phone deals... 13:11 - Jun 23 with 1132 views | clive_baker | What are you savvy people doing at the moment? I'm probably being mugged on mine, paid off the handset a while ago (iPhone 7) and just been letting it bumble along at about £25 a month ever since with O2. I had planned to upgrade but never bothered as mine was working fine but it's starting to get really slow, so probably time to bite the bullet. | |

Even better is if you get a second hand handset on eBay (or similar). There are always loads of "unwanted upgrades" being flogged. It's better for the environment too... | |

Phone deals... on 13:18 - Jun 23 with 1078 views | Kieran_Knows | I tend to wait till Black Friday deals. That said, my 2 year contract was up last Black Friday, and because my handset was still alright, I just went on a ridiculously cheap Sim Only deal that they were doing on BF. Hopefully it'll last me another 4-5 months and I'll upgrade properly on BF this year. | |

Phone deals... on 13:43 - Jun 23 with 1008 views | J2BLUE | I went from iPhone 7 to XR. This was when the XR was at least 3-4 handsets ‘old’. I absolutely love it. £23 per month on EE. Took a bit of searching. I think many people, including me, are Apple or Android users for life. You don’t hear of many people switching between the two. I have given up on Android. For me, compared to Apple they are awful. I have a mate who is completely the other way. If you like your phone then is definitely recommend a newer but not latest model Apple. | |

I am now locked in to Apple because I love my Air Pods and Apple Watch. I'd happily switch otherwise. | |

Phone deals... on 13:56 - Jun 23 with 953 views | Steve_M | I bought my phone outright and am on a cheap SIM only deal from Three. I've had the - iPhone 11 - phone since November 2019 and despite the battery going a little, it's still working well. I think that's generally the case for phones from the last few years be they Apple or Android. | |

I tend to agree, but the 7 will be out of support soon enough and struggle more because updates won't apply. | |

I've got the OnePlus Nord 2 paired with a Giff Gaff sim deal and it's been good. SB | |

I use Apple Air Pods with Android daily, with no additional software. Never had an issue. I haven't looked into buying an Apple Watch, so you may be locked in there. | |

Interesting - do they connect when you put them in your ears, or do you have to go into settings and hit anything? | |

Phone deals... on 16:19 - Jun 23 with 782 views | hype313 | Buy the phone upfront and get a SIM only deal, it works out far cheaper in the long run. I bought a POCO F3 and pay £10 a month for my SIM, phone is spot on. Samsung and Apple are taking the proverbial with the prices they charge, you are essentially paying for Marketing. | |

Phone deals... on 17:53 - Jun 23 with 688 views | mylittletown | Google Pixel 6. Brilliant phone Unless my maths was rubbish, buying it outright and getting a SIM only contract only worked if I kept it for over 3 years. | | | |
Phone deals... on 18:47 - Jun 23 with 632 views | strikalite | I'm on sim only too with Virgin, only £7.50 a month unlimited texts 200 minutes and data gets carried over too....however, struggle to get a signal at home, walk down the road and it's fine, damn annoying....EE had no problems at all.. | | | |
Phone deals... on 20:42 - Jun 23 with 561 views | BlueForYou | Nokia X10 Android phone with Tesco Mobile SIM only. Perfect. Why would anyone pay for Apples mega inflated prices? My last phone from Nokia lasted 3 & a half years. It’s not the phone which breaks down it’s the software. | | | |
