Basic smartphone for Betfair etc

cuthbertlilly

Hi guys,
I currently have an age old Nokia mobile that cannot display betfair.

Suggestions please for basic smartphones that would work well with Betfair, W.Hill, Laddies etc mobile sites for MB.

I've heard suggestions for the T-mobile vivacity and OSF - any thoughts guys? or would i be better off going for a slightly more expensive Galaxy Y or Galaxy Ace? what sort of speeds could i expect on these phones while using these sites?

For the bookies there is no point in going for more expensive phones, but Galaxy Ace/Y, although more expensive, have worse screen resolution than Vivacity/OSF2: http://www.gsmarena.com/compare.php3?idPhone1=3724&idPhone2=4347

ok, so what is a pretty decent phone for <£100 that would run BF, W.Hill etc pretty decently?

The Betair app is not very intensive. It does require GPS but I think all Android phones have that. Does not mention the GPS in the specs but I know from experience it won't work without checking your location.


Minimum Requirements
Android 2.1 or later
320x480 Touchscreen
Internet connectivity via WiFi or 3G

Before making the purchase make sure the app is available and works with whatever phone you are planning to get. Some may work direct from the mobile web.
