    Thank you one and all for your comments and advice. Seeing as i'm an old ****er i've decided to stick with what I know, i'm too bloody old now to start trying to learn new technology. I just thought I-phone would be simpler but that reasoning just shows ya how **** a techy I am <laugh>
    Thank ya all once again, your replies where greatly appreciated. <cheers>

    I just can’t use an Android, I find it impossible. That said, I would consider a change if these data rules are correct and Apple have had enough of my money!

    This is only to access information in a criminal investigation and still would require a court issued warrant and Apple have refused it anyway. The same situation applies to all phones, MI5 are obviously not only going to go after terrorists that happen to have an iPhone.

    I’ve had an iPhone for years, started on 4.
    I’d been using my Mrs’s Android when I needed to use the internet, so when I got an iPhone it took some getting used to, now it’s easy & simple, so smooth & if someone gives me their android to use, I have no idea.
    Also my current iPhone has 1tb of memory, not sure if there’s anything else on the market with that, so if it’s needed, it’s great.

    Let’s face it, I think if they really wanted to see what was on phones, they could anyway, regardless of a court warrant. The problem is as with everything else, not enough manpower to chase after it.

    I just bought a 9a the other day. £14.99 / mth contract with 500GB data. Good value and phone is decent.

    I was offered an iPhone 14 a year or so back for free, but gave it back after a day. The launcher is absolute garbage. I understand its popularity as it's technology designed and built for dummies so is easy to use and its quite slick. Not for me though. Not even for free.

    Edit: Kid loves their iPad though. Good value for performance conpared to Android tablets.

    Might still be on. Was with Id Mobile. Cheaper than buying the phone outright from Amazon.
