  • For as little as possible the Orange San Francisco probably beats the HTC Wildfire for me.

    Get it and unlock the Orange one, you can have the pick of the sim free contracts for well less than an iphone.

    someone said this to me about that phone:
    "I doubt youll find better than the Orange San Francisco (ZTE Blade) at the moment. Available on PAYG for £99 plus £10 top up, and it can be unlocked for $4. Full details on android.mocado.com and there are even custom roms available with full installation instructions which will wipe all the Orange customisation off the phone. I have one with the mods all done and its a fantastic phone considering the cost" in previous thread but i would like to knwo exactly in what way itis better than other before i order it. cheers for any help so far!
