    Default Phone Upgrades? Help Me Please

    Hey everyone, i have the chance to upgrade my phone from today but i really dont know what to choose. Firstly before i give you the options im going to explain the history of my phones which could get quite confusing


    Firstly i had a blackberry, then my mum got an iphone 3gs, i liked her 3gs so i bought myself one , was happy for around 5 months and then got bored of it and decided i wanted to go back to my blackberry. My blackberry had broken from not using it so then i got a refund and bought a blackberry 9300 and bought a pay as you go sim and topped up for my bbm ect and have the iphone just for texts and calls. However i dont like the keyboard on the iphone and i dont like the autocorrect feature or with it turned off. However altho im using the blackberry for bbm, im starting to get bored of it again.


    So i just called tmobile up and they offered a blackberry 93600, a blackberry 9320 or a htc desire C. The only thing is i dont know anything about htc's so im not sure if its going to be like the iphone over again, But if i get the contract on blackberry i may get bored of it, and also it would go from being £9 for my iphone , too £15. I Have always wanted to try a HTC As its different but i may not like it, and also it would be £15 which isnt too bad apart from the fact my mum is paying for it at the moment LOL


    if i was too keep the iphone and contract as it is at the moment, or get the htc, i would keep my blackberry on pay as you go. If i got the blackberry contract i would only have that as my phone


    So can anyone tell me what they would do in my situation, and if anyone has any reviews or experiences with these phones, some info would be great


    Thanks and sorry its so long haha

    I'd personally go for the HTC, mainly because I prefer Android over the BlackBerry OS. Don't really understand why you have two phones to do the job of one

    Yeah I'm with Sam, I have a HTC explorer that's on a 3 contract (amazing deal) and so far I haven't had any problems.

    However, I'm a girl who (used to) despise touch-screen phones so before that I had a LG GT350 which had the keyboard and the touch screen then went to a T-Mobile Rapport which only had a touch screen, but the HTC is most of the time ok for the keyboard but it's more difficult for me as I'm not used to the touch screens. I think a HTC is a wide choice though!

    HTC's are poverty phones. Get the Blackberry!!!
    I'm at a point in my life where I don't care if you like me or you don't. If you like me, cool. If you don't, meh.

    HTC's are for people who want a smart phone but can't afford a data plan over here.. you don't need a data plan to run them loll

    Well that arguement could be used for any smart phone. You don't NEED a data plan to use any of them but the whole point of being a smart phone is you do. Any HTC phone will benefit from a data plan in the UK as it's running the Android operating system.

    USA has a pretty backwards mobile phone network from what I saw of living there for 6 months.

    Blackberry's are so good that RIM (company that makes them) are trying to sell their Blackberry phone business to anyone who will buy it...

    Blackberry have been going down hill for the past couple of years and they will struggle to do so as they can't come out with products that will compete with other platforms such as: iOS, Android and WP.
