I can get the Desire S on 24 month contract for £26 a month with o2

600 mins, unlimited texts, 500mb internet

or Incredible with Orange 300 mins, unlimited texts and 500 mb internet for £25 a month, cant see a similar deal with O2 for the Incredible?

What does everyone think?

    Go with O2 as you will have a great phone on Orange, that will only work 20 percent of the time due to their awful network.

    Mobiles do the incredible on O2...might not be the exact tariff but it's the better of the 2 networks.

    Chance are you never go more than a few miles from home. I travel all over the country, and can testify that Orange is awful. I now carry a spare Vodafone PAYG for when the times when Orange is not working.

    wow really at orange signal? especially with being able to use T Mobiles signal now?

    ive never had a problem with O2 signal and have been with O2 for years! so i kind of assumed all the major 4 networks would be the same.

    "OP which of the 2 phones do you like"

    the only difference i can see that would make a difference is the camera with the Incredible? otherwise very similar as far as i can see....
  • Just to add another into the mix, the HTC Sensation comes out next week, though tariffs will probably be higher than the ones you're looking at.
