That doesn't make your advice to others any more correct. If you imply the iPhone is good or that EE 4G is decent value for money then of course I will pull you up on it as the evidence contradicts the assertion.SWP's back said:It is a phone I am more than happy with and your shitty android or windows phone would not be compatible with my work apps for clients investments.
SWP's back said:Depends what you were already paying doesn't it.waspish said:Irwell said:Average data rates on EE 4G in Manchester are 12mbps, taken directly from the mouths of the EE staff and seen in-store on their demonstration phones.
Three 3G is around 11mbps, but there is something in 4G phones called DC-HSPA+. This bridges two 3G connections, giving you double the data rate and incurs no extra cost. Notice how I said 10-20mbps?
If you have DC-HSPA+ on Three using a 4G phone you will see average connection speeds nearly double (22mbps) the average EE 4G speed (12mbps) and over half (22mbps) the theoretical maximum speed (40mbps) of the current LTE implementation. On a standard HSPA+ 3G phone you will see a speed slightly slower (11mbps) than the EE 4G average (12mbps).
So yes, 4G is probably a little faster given ideal conditions, but it's fairly similar under average conditions. Then consider that you are paying over £50 a month for 8GB of data (measly), compared to under £25 for unlimited data (unlimited).
As I said, EE 4G is pretty poor really.
Not worth the upgrade really with price it costs
I was using 2gb per month on 3g unlimited, the plan is the exact same cost, but limited to 5gb with 4g.
Why in the world would I not upgrade?

You are correct I do not have an elogonated 4s. ;)SWP's back said:Exactly.bluebrown said:As I'm already on an orange/ee contract, it won't cost anything to upgrade to 4G, for the same price ill just have 1gb a month less that I don't use anyway. Plus ill be able to use it at the match so seems worth upgrading to me
Oh and BB85, you don't have a 5, you have a mugs 4s.
It is piss poor.SWP's back said:The iPhone 5 is very good. As every fucker that reviewed it agreed.
But you are only paying a good amount on your current contract because you are a mug who got an iPhone.SWP's back said:The EE4g contract is value for money if you are paying a good amount on your current contract. It is the same price and the limit is higher than I was ever using.

Get a phone that doesn't have an inflated price and you don't end up on a contact with an inflated price. Don't have an inflated contract and you won't find EE 4G to be value for money.
If I had a contract where I spent every day being smacked around the head with a metal pole I would be just as well agreeing if they offered to swap that pole for a plank of wood. It doesn't make it a good contract, it just makes me look like a mug for signing up to be hit around the head in the first place.
How can he say it is piss poor. He has never had one. No one that I know that has a 5 thinks it is anything other than the best phone they have ever had.waspish said:Irwell said:It is piss poor.SWP's back said:The iPhone 5 is very good. As every fucker that reviewed it agreed.

I have an iPhone 5 and have to say its the dogs bollocks! The G3 is also but feels more Plasticky and cheap! Oh my contract is £6:90 a month not inflated
Yeah, it's great how they made it slightly longer than the one they released in 2007. Great feature that nicely displays the maps that might take you to the right place one day.waspish said:I have an iPhone 5 and have to say its the dogs bollocks! The G3 is also but feels more Plasticky and cheap!
Is that £36? That's much more like it if you have a 5. At that price point you might avoid being labelled a mug.<br /><br />-- Tue Nov 20, 2012 10:25 pm --<br /><br />waspish said:Oh my contract is £6:90 a month not inflated
Because they are mugs who are tied into the Apple ecosystem already. Their market share is going downhill rapidly for a reason. The original iPhone was the best phone around, but they've steadily gone backwards ever since.SWP's back said:How can he say it is piss poor. He has never had one.
