    I've never understood the rabid fascination for new iPhones. I am, however, getting my free upgrade soon on my old HTC Wildfire. Any solid recommendations?

    HTC One or Samsung S4 best phones about atm. If they try and get you to wait for a Mini HTC One say **** off :).

    Ha cheers, I will do. I couldn't deal with a mini phone anyway, my man hands need a bigger screen.

    HTC make good "small phones". I put that in inverted commas because phones are massive nowadays. I have a Wildfire S, it's the only thing that fits in my pocket.

    Well having recently finally moved out of the 1990's and gotten a phone that could do more than text and play snake (Although I'm still not completely sold that I do actually need to do more than that), I've found the Sony Xperia Z pretty faultless.

    Thanks for the inputs guys. Tempted to stick with HTC because I've not had any problems in two years with my current phone, other than it getting a bit slow now in its old age.

    I have an iPhone 4s and its behaved impeccably, the only fault is battery life if you use internet and maps

    HTC one is the simple choice then. Make sure you get the newer version and not the x version etc.

    Yeah just the HTC One, the HTC One X was the phone before it.(yes I know it doesn't make sense)
    Should be able to get it around £30 a month on contract.

    I'd second the recommendation of a Sony Xperia, they're great phones. Samsung phones aren't great IMO.

    Depends if you are a clumsy guy get it. If not it isn't worth it. You can also get insurance through your bank as well that will be cheaper.
