Anyone seen any Android phone bargains?

I bought an Orange San Francisco 2 last week through Topcashback and unlocked it with instructions from the web. It wasn't the most straightforward process but took me less than an hour. The phone itself is excellent and once debranded it becomes a pleasure to use. I also got a decent pair of headphones free from Orange as part of the deal. Now on Giffgaff and very happy with it.Norn Iron Club Member No. 252 :beer:0

Oh, now that does sound good. So could I just unlock it from home myself, with no special equipment? And there wouldn't be any obligation to Orange?0 -
You just need to be reasonably technically savvy, the instructions were a bit convuluted. It's Orange pay as you go, so you buy £10 top up when you buy the phone, that's the only obligation I know.Norn Iron Club Member No. 252 :beer:0
