So I want a new phone :)

[F3AR]

Got the same deal as you F3AR, was told it was a 2-5 week wait time but it arrived on Friday after only 3 days. So expect yours soon

It's a speedy little blighter for sure.

Mine is set to come tommorrow!

I went with the Galaxy S3 also, got it a few weeks ago and I am ex iphone user and can honestly say I do prefer the galaxy S3.

Got mine from Three, 5,000 Three To Three minutes, 2,000 minutes to any network, 5,000 texts, unlimited all you can eat internet for £34 a month. would have gone with 02 but they are expensive (£40++) with only 1GB of internet use.

Well, if I may join in....

I had an IPhone - 'twas the 3IS which was great. At the same time I had a Samsung Galaxy - the first gen one. I still have that phone and use it every day but it's used primarily as a [phone witha few small apps on it - it's my business phone. When it was time to upgrade the IPhone I went with the Galaxy S2. Still using it, still loving it and prefer it to the Iphone big time.

I now several people with the Galaxy S3 and they all rave about it. All have moved from IPhone 4s to this model and loving it.

My only problem with the Galaxy S3 is one of size. It's big. It's very light but it does make me think of Dom Jolly every time I see it in use.

I am not a lover of the IPhone purely because it ties you in to Apple and to ITunes.

So, as long as you don't mind the larger size (great for games and for office apps due to the larger screen and high resolution) then I'd strongly recommend the Galaxy S3.

I wish i never bought a cheap phone -.-

I cant tell if the screen is faulty, or because the hardware is so crap it feels/is unresponsive and slow.

What was it in the end? The HTC Desire thingy? False economy cheap phones...like cheap bin bags and cut price meat

Bad luck with the HTC, good luck in the 3 store! I'd agree the new samsung looks ace!

As for my phone, I really love it! I was given it in 2010 second hand, it is now over 4 years old! It is an iphone 3G that was bought in Japan when it first came out, after 2 years it was became so slow that apple just gave up with it and dropped support, angering a lot of users! So, my friend gave it to me as he got a new phone! I took it and after many hours of jailbreaking, hacking etc. It is now very fast (to me anyway!). I can do whatever I want with it, I will admit it is falling apart, a lot of parts don't work anymore (including the mute switch and the 3G radio is intermittent !). But I have grown to like it so much! It will be another several years before I change it, if I ever do! So, what I am saying is you can get an iPhone to last, they are good phones when they are jailbroken and you have full control of it. There is a lot you can do! I am now on a £5 a month contract with unlimited texts, I don't get internet but my 3G radio is stuffed anyway! and I don't get minutes but calls cost me 10p a minute which is dirt cheap! And I never call anyway! Only problem is that I have to use iTunes to sync it which isn't possible on linux ! But, I am more than happy to log onto windows once a month to give it a little sync!

lol hahah

I gave them a call instead! after repeatedly explaining what the problem is, (part of the screen doesnt work and its gone slow) Went through the whole steps to take, (turn it off and on again, factory reset, all the usual stuff) Had the phone for about 30 days and they wont even give me a replacement. she said I've gone over 28 days and I will have to book it in and have it repaired! after after ten minutes arguing she put me on hold (to ask) lol, at this point I'm quite enjoying politely arguing with her, as its damn well out of order that the phone doesnt work with less than a months usage and they wont give me a new replacement! She comes back and says the exact same thing, "needs bookin in for repair", at the this point I said, "I want to talk to someone higher than you please" she replies, "well they will tell you the exact same thing", I said "well i will argue with your manager instead of you then" hahah that shut her up. Put on hold whilst she found the manager, who happened to be in a meeting, (of course he is on a saturday afternoon) She said i will get a call back within 2 hours, lol that was 2 n half hours ago.

in the meantime I've done my research, n the law states they have to give me a replacement But i think I'm gonna tell them to cancel the contract as they are blatantly trying to cut corners!

Dont use THREE!
