If you missed the crazy £399 launch deal that O2 bafflingly offered when the S II launched, there’s another decent way to get the sizzling Android phone for a (comparatively) nice price. Amazon is now selling the thing for £429.49
Not as amazing as when O2 went completely mad, but still pretty good.
Feel a bit silly suggesting that spending £429 is in any way a “deal” – but the Galaxy S II is holding its launch price well and is yet to see any serious discounting. So if you want one, they’ve got you over a barrel.
The Panasonic Eluga marks the company’s return to the European mobile phone scene years after several years of absence, and it’s come back to us with a moderately high-spec Android model that features a rather stylish, slim case.
The HTC One V is HTC’s third entry in its high-profile new HTC One range, offering a smaller 3.7″ display running on a single-core 1GHz processor. It is is very much the “affordable” option in HTC’s newest Android series, but…
The HTC One S is the piggy in the middle of HTC’s 2012 line-up, offering a 4.3″ AMOLED display inside a very slim and stylish aluminium chassis. The end result is a phone that’s very, very slim and stylish.
HTC’s new quad-core monster, the 4.7″ flagship for 2012 that introduces the Tegra 3 processor to mobile phones, updates HTC’s range to Android 4.0 and brings us the supposedly streamlined version 4.0 of HTC’s Sense user interface.
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?

/ June 27, 2011£430 is really quite reasonable. The Sensation is £450 from Three for comparisons sake: http://threestore.three.co.uk/payg/dealsummary.aspx?offercode=DSL15PP295&id=1300&_$ja=tsid:10927|cc:|prd:DSL15PP295|cat:Mobile+Phone%26gt%3BPay+As+You+Go%26gt%3BHTC%26gt%3BHTC+Sensation&AspxAutoDetectCookieSupport=1

/ June 28, 2011I acquired one after reading the review here. Marvellous phone. Still not entirely sure about all the Samsung tweaks, but otherwise 9.999/10.

/ June 28, 2011Hmm, I’d just decided to sign my life away to T-mobile for two years to get it for 350. An extra 80 quid is only 3 pounds a month difference. Complicated business this phone buying.
Oh, and it appears to have dropped a further 5 quid since you’ve posted.
