Iphone alternative

I want to get one.. But the contract length in the UK is 18 months, And I only need a phone for 12.
I want a phone that looks the business, crisp and clean. Hold about 4 gigs worth of music. Anyone suggest anything??

Budget?

HTC Diamond , Nokia E71, Blackberry 9000 bold, Samsung i900.

Id recommend the i900 my self 7.2Mbps HSDPA,
WI-FI, GPS, Windows Mobile Pro 6.1, 5mp Camera with shit loads of features, Bluetooth 2.0, Full HTML web Browser, 8gb and 16gb models available with a Micro SD slot.

I work for Phones4u and find you normally get a better deal with an 18 month agreement in terms of Minutes and Texts, however you do tend to pay a little more for a 12 month agreement but they are available, most networks have a 24 month agreement plan now lol.

Suppose see what cashback deals are on it

Old now though.

There is no iPhone alternative.

The N95 is old. The N95 8GB is a newer, updated and much better model. Even Blackberries are better than iPhones.

Sure, iPhones are impressive but ffs, get off the fanboy bandwagon and you'll see that it's missing quite a few features and is far from the best you can get.

I'm very happy with the iPhone in spite of things I hate about it

What I hate about it:

* Typing on the touch screen keyboard takes some time to get used to. I prefer the keypad

* NO MMS functionality

* Can't change the battery

* No flash support


If you can live with these limitations, it's a fun phone to use

htc touch diamond

the Instinct is a badass phone...

I dont think the HTC Diamond is out yet. Though you could get an AT&T Tilt which is really an HTC TYTNII Kaiser with chrome buttons. I have one myself and it kick f$%^&in ass!

its out in the uk mate, shame its a little slow and overheats ( so i heard )

I hate the UK.

Thanks for the replies. The diamond looks close to what I'm after, Simple and neat design. I know I'll prob just jump on the wagon and get the iphone! but we'll see...

The iPhone, even with it's shortcomings, is 100x better than a BB.

Ben, you are so wrong. No further discussion necessary.

I think I'm waiting for this one, too. I want that "real" QWERTY keyboard.

I just tried my boss' iPhone to see if I could get used to the on-screen "touch-typing"....aaaannnnnnndddddd.... pfft.

I come from using a corporate BB so the inaccuracy of typing on a screen really bugged me.

lol nah. The bb sucks. Period. It is like if a girl starting sucking your dick and half way through stopped and said, "Ok I'm done!" That is a bb. A smartphone doesn't do 1 thing. That is called a pager, or email device.

Yeah it is something that you have to use for at least a day to get past the keyboard short-comings. I will take the Touch Pro any day though.

BB is great if you type emails nonstop and that's about it. Surfing the web on the BB is just a painful experience.

Iphone is great if you want to surf the web. I started out hating typing on my iphone, but I eventually adjusted and don't have much complaints about it even though I prefer using a keyboard.

BBs do every thing the iphone does. Plus, there's applications out the ass for it so you can make it do pretty much anything you want it to.
