Hi, the main things to ask yourself as well is, what budget do you have?
Are you wanting to buy just the handset or do you want a contract?
Do you want it on Pay as you Go?
Have a look on this forum for a number of handsets that take your fancy and find out what other people's opinions are.
Read reviews on the internet.
Hope that helps?

it's a phone for 1 year, not contract, i allready have one, but, my htc magic is bricked!
than it's to replace the sapphire for 1 year!
my budget is 250.- Swiss francs, it could be used!
with this details, i can buy a motorola flipout, sony ericsson x10 mini pro...
but there is others? thanks

Have a look here for any pre-owned handsets..http://forum.xda-developers.com/forumdisplay.php?f=476
Just to get some ideas in case you can't find anything brand new.

Why don't you try getting a ZTE Blade. I used to own one myself and it is a very powerful, but very low priced phone. It's also winning the best non-HTC phone of 2010.

Ok, I just ordered my Cect P68+ so I still haven't recieved it yet. But, I have been trying to learn all that I can about it. It looks like only now is someone possibly able to break into it. I use this forum, http://p168.myfreeforum.org
It is great (just like xda-developers). the OS is called...probably won't say this correctly...Neuclues OS? Think that is how you spell it. Anyways, it does not have Java which is what everyone wants to be able to do applications, it needs an embedded java to be added to it's OS to run the types of apps everyone wants. It looks to be a fun iphone clone, and reasonable @ only $160.

Suggestions on the Best (customizable) Phone to Buy

Hi everyone,
I am currently using a Ciphone C5, loaded with Windows Mobile 6.1. I like it, but it's not 3G-capable and I have to use a headphone adapter in order to listen to music on it, which is pretty annoying. I would like to get a phone that is 3G-capable and has a standard 3.5mm headphone jack.
I'd like some suggestions on what kind of phone to buy. I'm open to Windows Mobile, Android, or even an iPhone. Can some of you share your likes and dislikes about the phones you are using? I like the idea of being able to customize my phone, which is why I like the WM operating system, so most of the Samsung phones are not on my list. Any suggestions?

I don't think I want an iPhone or one of the knockoffs anyway.
If U don't want a keyboard but want the best ppc, then get the HTC HD2 Leo

Not sure I can afford the $800+ price tag haha.
Agree that is very pricy...hopefully it will be less. Some have preordered for about $700 in Europe...

[Q]What Smartphone should I get?

So I'm pretty new to this Smartphone thingie, actually I come from a Nokia 5800. Says quite alot dosent it?
I've been looking every single test I could get my hands on the last few days, and at best, it only confused me more.
I've been having a really really hard time deciding what my first real venture into Smartphones should be. I'm not a software geek nor a software newbie, so I like to fiddle around with stuff to make it suit me the best.
What I'm looking for in a phone:
Big screen
Good colors
Easy to text
Good camera
Easy to browse on
These phones are the ones I'm currently interested in:
Samsung Galaxy S
Samsung Nexus S
Sony Ericsson Xperia Arc
HTC Desire
HTC Desire S
As I said, a big screen means alot to me. Its just a jungle out there, and its really really hard to choose a new phone now.
Sorry if this is the wrong place to post this sort of question, but I havent been able to find a topic for it. If something like that exists, then please point me in the right direction.
On the other hand, maybe I should wait for the Samsung Galaxy 2

[Q] Advice needed! (about new phone)

Hello everyone,
Right now I own an HD2, and I am very happy with it.
But my contract expires soon, so I will be able to choose a new phone. But the thing is due to some changes my provider made I thought I would be able to choose a phone in late august. Turns out I could object to the cnages and now I can get my new phone in june.
But now I don't have time to do as much research as I normally would. So that is where I need your advice. What phone would be a worthy succesor for my HD2?
I use my phone mainly for entertainment so for me important things are:
Large internal memory
Good sound quality
Large screen (preferably 4.3 inch)
Speed
Android
Also important is the ability to flash ROM's but when I pick a phone that is already able to flash a custom ROM, it is probably a slightly older phone. But when I pick a very new phone I would just have to hope that it will become popular on XDa and flashing will become an option.
So advice and opinions please!
P.S it even makes me a little sad to get a new phone... I had an Xperia X1 before my HD2, but I had an HD2 based ROM on it so I have been on this forum for a few years now and I've grown attached to it. Kinda pathetic huh?
Oh I have mistakenly put this in the General forum instead of the HD2 General forum. So mods if you find this, please move my thread
I believe HTC Sensation will satify your requirements.

Thank you so much for pointing it out! Looks very nice

Help for choosing a new phone

Hello. First of all, I'm really sorry if this isn't a good place to find this new topic. I wasn't sure where should I create this topic. Anyway, I want to buy a new phone. But I'm not sure which phone should I buy. I want the phone to be not so big (smaller than 5.7" phones) and new,also with great software support (I want it to have enough custom things, like roms, kernels,.... in case that the phone's official support will end at someday anyway. It would be good if it has good camera and good sound quality,too. Is there such a phone available? Thanks in advance for helping me.
No one? At least please move my topic where more people can see it.

OK. I'm sorry. I didn't know where should I create the topic.
i dont know much about phone models..... but yeh what i know is
if your going to buy samsung then be care to buy an international version... because international version develop more roms....
and if you like ROMS/Custom Roms then dont buy a new phone .. because new phone's take much tome to struggle to present a custom ROM... else if u stuck at any situation you may less likely to find solution...
My thoughts are the LG G3, LG G4, or Nexus 5X. They all have pretty good audio quality and updates were not a problem from my experience. Also pretty good with custom software.
