I had a ZTE Blade 3 and hated it. I had all kinds of problems with it. I may just have been unlucky and had a 'lemon' though. I have now got a Motorola Moto G and love it.3 stone down, 3 more to go0

I would personally stay away from Huawei. I had one and had trouble with it after a few months. Finally gave up with it after 10 months, after Vodafone's bad attempts at trying to fix it. (they just made it worse)
I would also see if you can have a go on the phones recommended first.Sealed pot challenge #232. Gold stars from Sue-UU - :staradmin :staradmin £75.29 banked

thank you everyone for all your comments I went to cpw and bought a Huawei ascend y300 and persuaded virgin to give me 1gb of data along with unlimited texts and 250 minutes of calls for £5 per month.
The phone seems really good and at £70 with a top up (worked out cheaper than just buying it...will swap the sim over) I am well pleased.
Reviews seem positive and the guy said they were selling well.
BTW CPW were very helpful and I would go there again, he rang up virgin for me in the shop so I could sort out my tariff, I felt that the service was good and came away happy.Save £12k in 2012 no.49 £10,250/£12,000

That's a really good deal. :money: I'm with Virgin on a 30 day rolling SIM only contract and pay around £7 for 500mb, unlimited texts and 150 minutes. Are you tied into a contract on your deal?3 stone down, 3 more to go0 -
