I'm now thinking of replacing my Nokia N8.00 (Belle) and also getting a tablet for my database (MS Access based). I don't play games or stream movies or any of the other bollox but am getting peed off at the lack of useful apps for the Nokia platform.
So I'm looking for a new smartphone and tablet that are compatible. I'll be purchasing outright and using sim only, I don't go for contracts.
Oh one more thing, nothing beginning with "i" please

Check out the Samsung Galaxy bundles that are available, you can get a Galaxy S2 phone (still a damn good phone) and a 7" Tab2 for not a whole lot of money. Or go for the Samsung Note2 and have the best of both. |

I'll probaby go for the phone + Tab option mate, although I'll probably plump for the 10" version (me eye's aren't what they used to be) |

Compare the speeds first before you decide, when you have a slow tablet you need a hobby to be getting on with during page changes. |

Well pleased, cheers for the advice mate |

The Mrs. dropped her Note 2 yesterday, nicely smashed screen. Is the key way to tell whether its the glass screen or the LED display thats cracked by a 'bleed' of colour or less use of touch screen? As it is currently working fine, and judging by a quick google search I'll be able to fix this for £10-15.

Very nearly got them both myself on Thursday, however the deal from Carphone Warehouse was online only and Phones4u across the road had the s3 on its own for nearly a tenner less per month so went with that. Very pleased so far, massive upgrade on my Wildfire S. |

Not sure if anyone is interested here, but recently the CRTC (Canadian Radio-Television Telecommunications Commission) passed new rules in regards to Canadian mobile phone options. Long story short, companies here (Bell, Rogers, Telus etc) are to have maximum contracts of 24 months, previously it had been 36. This has resulted in phone prices being more expensive and same as plans
Iphone 5 is currently $249.99 on a 2 year contract where I work (Rogers) and plans start at $75 a month, which gives you Unlimited Canada Wide Calling, Unlimited Texting, Call Display, Voicemail and 250mb data.
Big shock for us canucks!

Currently looking into upgrading my ageing Iphone 3gs. I suppose it does everything I need of it but the battery life is starting to suffer and it is getting a bit slower. My sister has an s4 but I'd be worried about cracking the large screen and it also seems like it has so many features that I would never need.
02 refresh seem to have some decent deals at the moment and I'm thinking of an s3 or maybe an s3 mini which would be around the same size as the iphone but the specs are a bit lower than the full size s3. Anyone any experience with the mini and the large s3 to compare?

Google have just dropped the price of the Nexus 4. Can get a 16gb model for £199 from the google store. Has anyone got one of these? worth getting? seems a very good price.

Nexus 4 for the money is a bargain!
I have 8Gb and it's done fine. Plenty memory unless you want to load it with films and music.
Love mine. Fast, great screen, up to date OS...but battery not brilliant, but that's the same for most phones nowadays.
