I just lost my phone, it was a Nokia E51, and did the job i required of it...namely make calls, texts, wake me up when i was sleeping at work.
Now i have the chance to get a new phone, my wife suggested i get a bill pay smart phone and here is where i need a little advice.
Can yous recommend a smart phone? I was looking at the HTC oneX, because i heard it was a goodun, and it isn't an iphone. What smart phone would you guys choose, and why?
Thanks in advance...Huck.

Just as important is figuring out what you are going to use the phone for and get a model and contract that is as tailored to that criteria as possible.
Originally posted by huckleberryhoundMy wife has an HTC and whilst it looks nice, the menu is a dog and the ring/text tones too quiet imo. Also I prefer a qwerty keyboard as those touch-text screens are too slow and fiddly to use, but I guees you get used to it. I need mine for work/email to so I use a blackberry.

Smartphone :- HTC One X or Samsung Galaxy S3
Tablet/phone hybrid - Galaxy Note
Now that the Galaxy S3 is out the Galaxy S2 is cheaper so you could look at that. I would not get an iphone when an android phone does the same if not more for less.

But, if you don't/won't use that kind of performance, then go for last year's models...the HTC in particular. You can pick those up now for zero dollars.
I'd only recommend the iphone if you are a technological idiot that doesn't mind paying 3 times as much money as you should. Apple has made a boatload of money selling old technology to people that don't know any better. But if it works for you, then by all means it might be your best bet.
I'd stay away from the blackberry unless you like using a real keyboard or like to chat with your friends. Their BBM system is top notch but the screen is so small it makes using the internet very frustrating. Compare a blackberry to the new samsung and you'll see what i mean.
BTW, stay away from tablets...phones are getting larger and will soon replace the tablet altogether. Your phone will become your digital wallet in the near future.

A smart phone is only as smart as the person using it.
I would disagree with uzeless to get last year's HTC if the OP can't get the S3 or the One X. The best smartphone last year was the Samsung Galaxy S2 not a HTC.
Also the Galaxy Note and the Galaxy Note 10.1 can be considered if he wants something a little larger.
