New phone upgrade

[shevtheblue]

Completely agree, I thought the same. I'm going for the sim only option and will just keep tabs on any offers.

Thanks for the website, I shall have a browse.

If you are talking bang for buck, the best phone IMO is a OnePlus. The new screens are brilliant with a high refresh compared to some others, the cameras have improved a lot and are comparable to Samsung and Huawei and the software is about as stock Android as you are going to get which is what you want. Although the price has gone up, i still think you can get a OnePlus 8 for a decent price, but even a OnePlus 7 is really good. Samsung have an event to showcase their new set of phones early August, so there will be a decrease in the second part of the year for the Samsung s20 at some point if that's what you want.

Thanks for the heads up about samsung announcement. Will go sim only for now, my phone is in good nick and upgrade when prices drop.

Never come across oneplus before but their phones look good.

If you don't need the unlimited data then the smarty could be better value at a tenner for 30GB. Just monitor your usage good doctor and play it by ear.

I have just upgraded a Xiaomi Red 8 to a Samsung Galaxy A51, £20 a month with 4gb of data (I don't ever use the data up so don't need it) it's a quality phone and should see me through the 2 year contract.

150gb?! Do you not have internet at home :D Great price for unlimited data though, think it hops of Three so should be decent coverage.
