Help in deciding on new mobile phone

3493 Views 99 Posts Social
Hey everyone.

My mobile contract is just about up and I'm trying to decide on which phone i should get next

It's come down to the following

Nokia N900 (released in Australia April 2010)

HTC HD2 (which I think is exclusive to Telstra so I'd have to change carriers from Optus to get it for free)

or the new iPhone 3GS (i don't particularly want to be like the rest of the sheep but if it's the best out of the 3 then i'll bite the bullet and get it)

Given the choice what would you get, any pro's and con's you have on them would be greatly appreciated

Thanks again
This is all so hard =_=

Well, so far i'm liking the plans on vodafone, I think i'd prefer good plans over good reception. I've had to put up with virgins very terrible reception for the past year and i'm used to it by now, so I think i'm just looking for cheap, good plans ;)
Pretty much same as telstra but with telstra you will get reception

Yeah, ok, with carriers aside, I need to decide on an actual phone :P
iPhone 4 is really good.....
I refuse to buy an iphone when I have an ipod touch, I don't really see the point paying the money for one when I have an ipod touch and a phone :P
WEll I have an ipod classic and an iPhone, still use them both
But Ipod touches and iphones are to similar, so I'm avoiding iphones :P
You can have my E71.

Nah. But it is an ok phone, it does everything I want my phone to do.

I dunno, i'm leaning towards a phone with a qwerty keyboard, I was looking at the Blackberry Bold 9700, it seems like a nice phone. But even though i'm against touchscreens I also kinda want a HTC desire, or a mozart [Derp]
The E71 was pretty cheap, on a plan for 35 bucks a month with Telstra.

I'm going hopefully with the vodafone unlimited plan, $49 a month for unlimited std calls and text. We're over this now i'm supposed to be deciding on a phone now lol :P

There really is no reason for an iPhone if you have a touch, iPhones suck anyway my last one got the white screen of death after 12months X_X

Good phones imo

Samsung Omnia 7 (Win7 Phone)
Blackberry Torch
HTC Desire
Nokia N8
What about the HTC Mozart with Windows on it, is that any good?

I couldn't say personally (i own the Omnia) but most reviews see the Mozart and Omnia 7 as the best Win7 phones available at the moment.

The thing that swayed my decision for the Omnia 7 was the super AMOLED display providing a brighter, sharper screen.
Haven't really seen much of the omnia, but so far my choices are between the blackberry bold 9700, the HTC Desire, the HTC Mozart and samsung omnia 7...hmm...
I'd suggest the Bold - using a 9000 atm. Not really a fan of the Torch (too many control schemes).
Slowly leaning towards the Bold, it seems to be a little bit cheaper then the windows 7 phones. The desire on the other hand I'm not sure about, is it good?
Yeah the HTC Desire is a lovely phone. The Bold 9700 is a nice phone but it won't set your world on fire, it's too much of a business phone, tiny screen too.

Out of your choices either

 • Samsung Omnia 7 or
 • HTC Desire

EDIT

Is it the HTC DesireZ or HD??

The Samsung Galaxy S is another good phone.

The HD...i think

I dunno, samsung isn't really high on my list. I have a touch screen samsung now and it's terrible. I'm trying to avoid samsung really, so looks like the Desire will be it! ^_^
Nexus S :P
samsung galaxy. forget iphone
GET DAY PHONE DAT HEAPSZ GEWD!! [Rage] [Derp]
I got a htc desire and I'm loving it *_*
They all give you brain cancer so pick any of them!
They give you cancer if you use them to much. Mine only gets used for SMS mostly
