I’ll have to have another look. When I got my current phone I thought it felt a bit naff, but its lasterd 2 years absolutely fine, I’ll have another look but after my brief session in the shop I thought there was a marked difference in quality between those 2 brands.
My Wife got an S2 cheaply by paying £150 up front for the handset and then £10pm for the contract. The phone is great but the interface is not as good as HTC, but then I’ve been using sense for the last 2 years. It does feel very delicate, and they are quite big, but they’re probably comparable to a Desire.
Let me know how you get on as I am due an upgrade with T mobile and am looking at similar phones / contracts.
