well i got a contracted phone, and i got the galaxy S i9000 and without my contract it would have cost me ~£400. and thats a very good phone, it depends what you want it for to be honest.
Would this be good? [url]http://www.mobicity.co.nz/htc-smart.html[/url]

[QUOTE=Akasori;28542162]It doesn't have Android.[/QUOTE] It uses the "Brew Mobile Platform". Which I haven't even fucking heard of. I do have to say, that HTC UI makes it hard to just look at a device and figure what OS it's running.
orange san fran or zte blade

If you can get the Orange San Francisco/ZTE Blade, do it. Vastly better than other Android phones in its price range. It can do almost everything I can do on my Galaxy S at a quarter of the price, and is built really well and has a fantastic screen (same resolution as the high end handsets) considering the price.
I wouldn't get less than a Motorola Defy.
[QUOTE=y0haN;28546256]I wouldn't get less than a Motorola Defy.[/QUOTE] The DEFY's locked down like a maximum security prison, you're lucky if you can get MotoBLUR off it, not speaking about updates. Motorola's very bad at keeping their devices up-to-date, they'll release Froyo for the DEFY in late Q2. :geno:
Really, get the ZTE Blade, there is a wide selection of ROMS available and its increadibly easy to root.
ZTE Blade, get it. I'm on 2.3.3 on it because the awesome modability.
[QUOTE=Canary;28548097]ZTE Blade, get it. I'm on 2.3.3 on it because the awesome modability.[/QUOTE] Which ROM, I found the 2.3 rom to be damn unstable and almost unusable?
Where can I get the ZTE blade from in NZ? [b]Also, I can go higher than 150. I can't edit thread titles.[/b]
Virgin Mobile has some adriod phones for cheap
[QUOTE=JohnEdwards;28552088]Virgin Mobile has some adriod phones for cheap[/QUOTE] Yeah the Optimus V is awesome.
[QUOTE=Fatal-Error;28549796]Which ROM, I found the 2.3 rom to be damn unstable and almost unusable?[/QUOTE] CM7 R2, It still has problems but it's pretty stable for me, I hate ADW being on it though.
[QUOTE=Greyson;28542773]the i5800 sounds good.[/QUOTE] The i5800 is awesome and you should buy it now.
