If you’re not bothered about having the hottest phone of the week in your pocket, the Samsung Galaxy Portal is a solid choice for Android newcomers. Better still, T-Mobile UK is knocking it out on a £15 per month contract, which gives you 300 minutes and 300 texts, along with “unlimited” (*) mobile internet.
That’s not bad at all. Here it is, in our test shopping basket as proof:
The Portal’s the very definition of “workmanlike” – chunky and solid, with a 3.2″ screen and all the standard Android features you need. The T-Mobile variant is limited to Android 1.6 at the moment, but an update really ought to be imminent, as the Three Portal is fully Android 2.1 ready.
And of course, T-Mobile’s idea of “unlimited” internet is a generous 3GB of data, making it the one network where you don’t have to be afraid to actually USE your telephone.
