Hi everyone,
This is my first question here.
I want to get an Android phone under 150 recently. I'm not good at electronics. So hope you can suggest some for me to choose. Good quality and good looking one.


Thanks,
niss

    Hi, Martin’s asked me to post this in these circumstances: I’ve asked Board Guides to move threads if they’ll receive a better response elsewhere (please see this rule) so this post/thread has been moved to another board, where it should get more replies. If you have any questions about this policy please email [EMAIL="forumteam@moneysavingexpert.com"]forumteam@moneysavingexpert.com[/EMAIL].

    A colleague is very happy with their HTC Wildfire

    Three have got the Samsung Galaxy Ace for £149.99 on PAYG but if you would prefer a different network you would most likely have to get it unlocked.

    The htc wildfire is quite good, its small which is quite good if you dont have big pockets.

    At that price point you'll be looking at one of the Orange ZTE phones (San Francisco or Monte Carlo).

    The San Fran can be unlocked for free, the Monte Carlo needs a Turbo SIM type dealy at the moment.

    Quidco have a £20 cashback promotion on the Monte Carlo (expires tomorrow - 25th Oct).

    Phone already reduced to £120 + some other extras thrown in on Quidco (Orange cash card preloaded with £25 for new customers )

    Also try eBay. You will pick up last years top model for around £150. As new it may have been sold for £400. Also make sue item is unlock or work with your network. Due to number of companies doing android phones the price drop very quickly for most models.

    Dear all,

    Thank you all for your kind help.
    I just checked the design of HTC wildfire S. Pretty nice. And I like the small shape. Good for girls.
    Now I'm checking the price on ebay. :beer:
