Hi,

I am due an upgrade next week and just looking at different models of phone and I thought I'd see what phones you guys had and liked/disliked. Any recommendations or suggestions?

    This is probably too general a question to get any useful responses.

    Maybe specify how you intend to use a phone and what's important to you?

    Go for the Desire, the build quality is better than the Galaxy.
    I'm having mine delivered tomorrow..cant wait!
  • Go for the Galaxy - the design is better and the phone is a lot lighter and thinner than the desire - oh, and it's got a better screen. There's a whole lot more I could add, but I'm sure you can look up the tech spec for both phones. ;)

    Desire. Hands down. Especially if you debrand your phone and update to the newest firmware, 2.2

    Beware the evil IPhone ;)
