My contract is nearly up and I'm looking for a new phone.
The two phones in mind is the iPhone 4s or the blackberry 9900. People keep giving me mixed views about both phones, so the users of habbox; which phone do you think I should go for and why? & If not the iPhone 4s or Blackberry 9900, then what?
Will Rep+ For good answers :)
Well I'm an iPhone lover... so naturally I will tell you to get that. Never really got the point of Blackberry's outside of the corporate world. I know the Galaxy S3 has good reviews. Just depends whether you'd prefer iOS or Android.
I'd kind of recommend you get a **** phone for a bit and get the iPhone 5 comes out around October time.
My mum has the Galaxy S3 and i dont like it that much, and aye but I've read that the iPhone 5 wont live up to its expectations due to Steve jobs dying.Quote:

I'm a blackberry lover, as long as you look after them well they're usually fine, but iPhones are great too. It depends what you're after really, if you want a lot of apps and things, go for an iPhone, but I find blackberries are better for the phone capabilites. And if you like touchscreens or not (which I don't).
Yeah this post has just made me really want it xDQuote:

I would hold off for the iPhone 5! Not a fan of blackberry. My contract is up too but gonna wait till the 5 is released.
What BB have you got atm? I upgraded from a Bold 9000 - 9780 and I literally couldn't be more in love!!Quote:

if it has to be out of them 2, iphone.
otherwise galaxy s2, save yourself some money
definitely iphone. other phones just feel so sluggy and limited compared IMO
The HTC One S is an impressive phone if you want another phone chucked into the works. The camera is amazing! Very good quality and quite a shock when I saw the photos my friend took the other day :)Quote:

Went to a zoo, took pictures of animals in the rain. If a camera phone can take good photos in low light it's a good phone :PQuote:

Had to comment on this. I don't get why people think iPhone has everything compared to other phones.Quote:

However there are far more better phones in my opinion that the iPhone - there are a number of Android phones out there that have the same features of iPhone phones including the latest, some even more but are yet so cheaper.
With Apple your paying for a brand, you can pay a lot of money for an iPhone or you can get something that's cheaper but still does everything. I love my Galaxy S2 which has better specs than the current iPhone - This is not looking at the even higher specs that the Galaxy S3 has e.g. quad core. Not sure on the s3 design but haven't looked at one close up for real but no reason to upgrade right now
i do like blackberry phones but i think the iphone is better, you're making a good choice by going for it instead.
Thanks all for your comments :) I've gotten myself the Phone:

And atm I am very pleased with it, one of the best phones i've ever owned! :)
Nice to see you made a good choice ;)Quote:

If you don't like the S3, you definitely should've gone for the Galaxy Nexus S or the HTC One X or something. Buying a year old phone right before the next one coming out is a bit stupid imo, but as long as you're happy
