Samsung Galaxy Europa?
Been searching for a new phone, i want a smartphone with unlimited 3G broadband so i can visit youtube and surf the internet. The Samsung Galaxy Europa seems to fit into everything i need i am really looking for opinions if this really is a good deal.
Found on Omio, provider 3 £13p/m (Says on the homepage 16p/m though...)comes with:
calls 300 mins
5000 texts
unlimited broadband
24mth contract
Looks to me like a good offer if it really is 13 quid a month.
Advice, opinions. please, thanks.

It's all right but that's about it
Slow processor, low RAM, small screen, I would opt for that on PAYG only.0 -
I read because of the smaller screen it was able to work just as fast with the processor it currently has.One years target for mortgage deposit:

Another important point i need to know would be how good is the reception?One years target for mortgage deposit:

Go into a store eg O2 store and have a play with it, they are £33 on PAYG , so the deal for the 24 months is far from attractive.
The processor speed will affect running applications and a sat nav will make good use of the hardware, it will do the job.Another important point i need to know would be how good is the reception?
The reception is relevant to the network coverage in the areas you wish to use the handset. It's not a bad unit, but yesterdays technology.0 -
The Europa is a poor phone by todays standards
Many apps wont work on that low res screen
Go for a Galaxy Ace or something, thats a comple of models up, far better, no more expensive0 -
if you're going to go for europa it may be better buying it on payg. I got my fella one for his bday last year and it was only £50.
I certainly wouldn't want to be tied into a contract with one4 Stones and 0 pounds or 25.4kg lighter :j0 -
The Europa is, as said, an older handset. My first Samsung was an Apollo which was same price but better spec than Europa.
I would seriously look at alternative PAYG handsets and go sim only. Certainly, for the same money over 2 years, you could get a better deal.0 -
