Mate got an iPhone 13 for £37 a month from Sky recently, you could probably get something like that even cheaper with Black Friday deals kicking about just now.

Always think it’s odd how people set on using android see Apple as a cult when they’re doing the same thing just with a different OS.

Android os can be used in multiple devices including tv and every electronic equipment including medical, military and aerospace systems. Apple is just a cult. The number is a 36 month contract as that's the minimum term contracts you get these days Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So you are paying £14pm for the latest tech phone and own it outright in 2 years. I am an android user btw and use sim only contracts. Until I got a dual sim Samsung throgh work, I was very happy with my Pocophone. Excellent device at half the price of top Androids. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jambopilms Posted November 19, 2021 Share Posted November 19, 2021 Another shout for a pocophone I have an F1 and it's going on for 3 years now. It's still very good. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hughesie27 Posted November 19, 2021 Share Posted November 19, 2021 Plenty cheap choices listed above for the OP to pic from. I'd add in Xoami too. These days I pay for my SIM and Phone separate. SIM Only unlimited 5G with EE is about £20 and I use the Samsung Upgrade programme to get the new Galaxy model on a 2 year contract at about £25 p/m. With a free upgrade each year to thr latest model if you like. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nothing not to like about it, although the camera never gave great photos, but maybe I am shit at taking photos. When 5g becomes more available, I will buy another.
