Phew, at least there is a contract you have that you might see to the end.....

You must spread some Reputation around before giving it to northernladuk again.

Your a contractor/business man

Get a Blackberry as your main phone then get some other phone as a gadgety one. I have BB 9900 as my main phone - all emails, texts, calls go through that. I have an iPhone 4s purely for fun - browsing, apps, games, FreeAgentCentral app for expenses, movies, camera etc.

That sounds like an expensive solution to a problem I don't have, anyway I'm a disguised employee not a businessman.

My S3 has been sitting in the Post Office since Monday but will pick it up tomorrow and compare it to the Nexus I have in front of me. Also need to order another one so will probably go for the X and then I can compare all 3, whoopie....

Samsung Galaxy S3 or a HTC One X?

or

A cheaper mobile then get a tablet later on?

or get the top end phone and get the tablet anyway

or wait for one of these to come out with a better spec

ASUS - Mobile- ASUS PadFone

Thinking of changing my phone too and not wanting to pay over the odds for a new model, am thinking of going for a HTC Sensation which has now started to come down in price.

It's about a year since it was released, I believe, but the specs just about still hold up compared to newer phones.

Wrt, the Asus PhonePad, that looks like a decent bit of kit but when I was in the market for a tablet earlier in the year, I was considering an Asus Transformer but heard a few horror stories regarding their reliability so decided against it.

BTW, hello all.

I had a play around with a colleague's S3 last week, the screen is amazing and it's lightning quick but as mentioned, it's a big phone. I think I could just about deal with the size but you should check it out in your hand first.

Some of us already know big things will fit in our hands

I have the Sensation XE and I rate it very highly

The first batch of Transformers suffered a bit from reliability but that was fixed.

I did own one for a couple of weeks it was almost perfect. Unfortunately the wifi was complete tulipe so I had to send it back
The only other niggle is that copying from USB to internal storage was rather slow. Still faster than an iPad manages though

Or just get a proper phone in the first place and forget about the Blackberry.

The size seems ok to me - it's only marginally bigger than my current phone

[Spacecadet]

Finally made up my mind... I'll be getting the Samsung.

What swung it was the keyboard, which looks better laid out on the Samsung compared to the HTC.

The extra GB of RAM won't hurt either, plus the samsung looks like it will be steadier than the HTC when laid flat on a desk

surprisingly small hands for a contractor..
