Ouch. We knew it was coming, but it still hurts even though we’re biting down as hard as possible on the mouse cable. UK high street retailer Carphone Warehouse is currently taking pre-orders for HTC’s stunning upcoming Desire Android phone, with the tariffs starting at £30 per month. STARTING AT. That’s top-end stuff, the sort of range usually reserved for Apple fans.
Carphone Warehouse’s cheapest £30 monthly tariff is yours through a 24-month T-Mobile contract with an up-front fee for the handset of £79. If you don’t mind paying a bit more each month you can get that connection charge down to £49 – but then your monthly bill rises to a minimum of £35.
It makes the £20 per month T-Mobile UK wants for its solid but unremarkable Samsung Galaxy Portal seem like a steal in comparison. You’ll certainly end your 24-month contract significantly better off by bravely rejecting the Desire, if with fewer fashionable and influential friends.
Check out the full range of T-Mobile/Desire tariffs over at Carphone Warehouse.
HTC’s 4.3″ dual-core Android model, powered by Qualcomm’s all-new S4 processor. It’s smaller than the enormous One X, but is it as nice as its bigger brother? (SPOILER: Yes it is).
HTC is very much B-A-C-K at the top of the Android world with this, its quad-core flagship for 2012. Great camera, huge 4.7″ display and Android 4.0 running beautifully well.
Sony returns with an all-new mobile design for 2012, pairing a dual-core processor with a 720p display. It’s a lovely phone, but is it enough to end our Samsung and HTC obsession?
LG’s updated Prada phone comes with an absolutely crazy black & white theme, but is it just for fashionable suit wearers who want to make themselves look a bit more interesting?
