Hi i'm looking for a smartphone for my 10yr old son for christmas.

Do you really need a phone? You could consider a games console/MP3 player like the PS Vita, Nintendo DS or iPod Touch

There are also a few Android-based MP3s similar to the iPod touch.

There are also a some cheaper Android-based phones which you can get shipped direct from China/Far East but be warned: buy only from a recommended store as there are loads of scam sites out there on the 'net!

Korkyb

HTC Wildfire S with 250 minutes, 5000 texts and 500mg data all for £7.50 per month from Tesco Mobile.

This also comes capped so no parental worries about your wee darling running up a huge bill.

An excellent deal methinks.

Please don't buy a 10 year old a smartphone on a contract. I don't care how smart your kid is, they will accidentally phone Guatemala

Not if it's capped. Both Tesco and Three can do this.
