The 3310 does play games. I'm telling ya, as soon as that kid gets his hands on Snake he'll forget all about Clash of Clans or candy crush

Plus he could use it to defend himself if anyone tried to rob him. I heard on a secret underground forum that the 3310 was designed and built by Chuck Norris (I also heard he synthisised his DNA into each and every 3310!)

iPhone 4S on eBay and something like Giffgaff isn't a bad idea actually.

I've just looked and best iPhone 4S deal is about £14.50 a month. So you'd save about £60 using the buy outright on eBay + giffgaff route.

I understand what people are saying about getting scammed on there, but if you choose reputable sellers then you will have nothing to worry about.

I've sold phones on eBay before plenty of times. Of course there are people on there trying to scam, but they don't last long. And really, for every seller that is trying to scam, there are 10 buyers trying to scam too - never received item, try to a return of a different item etc. Just use common sense.

Just revisited this post to find a giant argument - sorry about that - didn't mean to start a fight!

Went with the Moto G on Tesco, thanks to all that suggested this.
