Mines £150 a year actually, and for the amount of calls and data I use thats reasonable. Then phone itself cost £200Originally posted by scooterscot View PostI bet you spend more money than me being under contract.
I got slated for paying 2k for my 2006 iMac. Still using it today for this very message. Let's see, that's £250 a year so far. I'll get another 5 years out of it yet.
Unless your £900 cost is for longer than 4 years including all data, calls and texts that does not computeLast edited by amcdonald; 27 September 2013, 09:51.Doing the needful since 1827Comment

Nexus 5 should be announced in the next few weeks. Going to see how that looks and then move to SIMO only deal with my mobi provider I reckon. Will save a few hundred quid per year after the first year.Originally posted by cojak View PostI'm looking at Samsung next time as I don't think I'll be spending £500 on a phone again...Comment

The price of the Nexus 4 has dropped suddenly, so I would be suprised if the 5 wasn't released soonOriginally posted by administrator View PostNexus 5 should be announced in the next few weeks.

Do any of these top phones have any features worth are really worth having?
I do not watch films on my phone or really listen to music much. I listen to audio books through headphones but that is it, my current phone is not particularly slow so I feel no real need for a faster one.
Is there a reason for me to buy a new phone when my old IPhone 4 is chugging along?Comment
