Internet on Mobile phone Vs Laptop/Pc

scrooge786

Hi I am confused about whether to buy a phone which is compatible with internet (any ideas? as i already have a Nokia 6500 which is not very good for the internet as it is ok with some sites for just browsing but u cant do much else.)
Or do i get a laptop/Pc with a contract for the internet.

I will really appreciate suggestions of which affordable phones work just aswell as a Pc or laptop for the internet.
As i know they are expensive.


Thanks in advance

I know there are a lot of haters of the iphone, but for the interet it is fantastic. Perhaps a HTC type phone with windows 6.1 on it would be pretty good as they have a decent screen.

Nokie 95 is pretty good too...depends on budget no doubt.

I've found the Nokia E61 excellent for internet and e-mail. Had one for 17 months and planning to keep it when the contract ends. I prefer to use it in preference to my laptop.

HTC HD is the handset for internet

Thanks for all the replies.
But the Htc is on Tmobile or is it orange anyway neither are any good where i live for coverage.
Im looking for something on o2 or Vodafone.
The E61 doesn't seem to be available anymore.

The Nokia E61 has been replaced with the E71 which appears to be much better, check out

O2 400 mins 18 months,£30 pm, £80 auto cashback, but you would probably have to bolt on web for an extra £7.50 pm?
You could try e-bay for an E61.

XDA Exec; eBay only nowadays, but ive never seen a better "laptop replacement" mobile phone. Tis a shame HTC don't make a new version, smaller and slimmer etc...

Oh btw, it is called the MDA Pro on T-Mobile, and SPV summit or other on Orange. Vodafone have one too. I think the HTC name was Universal but not sure.

The XDA release was the most popular in the UK by far anyway.
