another mobile phone advice thread,

My current contract ends soon and I am thinking of going down the giffgaff route, £10 a month will give me all I need and more.

Obviously I will need to buy a new phone, I could keep my old touch screen nokia but that would deprive me of a new toy (and the Mrs has a new iphone)

My phone use, in order of importance to me, consists of texting, browsing, calling and taking the odd photo and I would like a decent size screen together with reasonable battery life.

So can anyone recommend me a phone that ticks all my boxes :D

Thanks in advance :beer:

    You forgot to add the most important box - price.
    Also, 'reasonable battery life' and 'decent size screen' are either too vague or contradictory.

    I will have a look at the note, but in answer to your valid points,

    edit < nice phone, but the price is a bit 'ouch'>

    Price, cheaper than the new iphone, so less than £500

    Screen size, 4 inches plus.

    Battery life, 24 hours plus.

    Although I could compromise a bit on any of them ;)
