    Default Mobile Phones.... thoughts and opinions

    I am looking to upgrade my N97 soon, and been looking at new phones.

    I have to start out that i am NOT a fan of the iphone for 1 reason...... Apple control it.

    I love the hardware.... i love the 3rd party apps.

    i hate how apple control everything you do..... (i.e. they decide which apps you can buy, by controling the app store)

    I am thinking ill got HTC Desire HD, as early reviews of the new Nokia N8 say symbian is still behind (and it wont have the backing from the apps)

    Android seems to be the platform to be with, if you want something that has (and will soon be even) with the apps store of apple.

    What are you using, and what are you looking for?

    Upgraded to a HTC Desire about 5 weeks ago.

    Glad I didn't get an iPhone 4 now

    Maybe the apps are a little behind the iPhone, but it is still an awesome phone.

    My only gripe is that if you're like me and you've been using your (linked) gmail account for 7 or 8 years, the contacts list is a bit stupidly huge. Which makes it hard to use your address book etc.

    But yeah, would reccomend a HTC for sure

    +1 HTC desire, in fact I'm writing this from it. Just make sure you manage what apps are running with programs such as ' advanced task killer' and your battery will love you, I can almost get 48hrs out of the battery. Great phone though, I'm still not very good at typing on touch screen....but I'm getting better.

    ^ Every word you wrote is true.

    I found a free "quick reboot" app.

    Basically is a warm boot for the phone, takes about 30 seconds.

    If i've been running any 3rd party apps (like games), I run the quick reboot, and make sure that all the crap processes are killed.

    Have been averaging about 28 hours per full charge which is awesome, considering I do a lot of facebooking / AE86DC / gmailing from it...
