Upgrades verses New Contracts
It's time for an upgrade but I have noticed that upgrades are more expensive than new contracts. I'm not sure why and if it's legal. I want a new phone but don't want to pay £10 extra a month than a new contract. So why the price differences?

Doogee Valencia Y100 Pro Phone
So far this phone seems quite good. Some of the reviews of Doogee phones claim that the screen is unresponsive, but it seems to be working fine. It is such a relief to be able to install lots of apps and still have 10GB space left on the phone. The speaker seems OK. The battery seems shockingly large in physical size, but…

I've just signed up to a 12 month sim contract with Three. I have £25 PAYG credit left. On the online chat they said it would move across and cover the first few bills (£8.40 a month intro rate for 6 months). I went to do it online and their website only says the first month. Who is right? And if it's only the first month…

Best "Invisible" case for iPhone SE
New iphone SE is on the way 😀 Which is the best slim, transparent case so the phone colour/design is still completely visible but protected?

iPhone SE GPS accuracy problem
While out for a country walk recently, I discovered a serious problem with the accuracy of the iPhone GPS location accuracy. The GPS was basically not working, showing an accuracy circle around 3Km in diameter. We were out in open country, not an underground car park. The reason for the inaccuracy may be interference, but…
