I have the S4, great phone. Though I did read an article about the battery exploding while on charge. Hasn't happened to me... yet. Di Matteo stands out as the one player who when he was in the PL had continuous success, some of the others may have been of a better quality at times but had prolonged Premier League careers that kinda tarnish how good they were at one point. Went with Di Matteo in the end.

@djed In that AVB thread he made he said something like "the losses to Liverpool and Man City sent some Spurs' fans into deep depression". The depression bit was edited out by shortman a couple of hours ago so I'm just going off my memory but that was the gist of it. I've made sure the mods have noticed it though and I think it's safe to say if he mocks depression any more then it will be more than two weeks he's gone. Anyway, enough about him. Attention and reactions are all he's after. Lul I love that Shortman gives him the slack and edits his posts yet a group of us were banished at his request, some with no just reasoning whatsoever. But yes. He'll be gone soon. And then he'll have nothing. Lol

I know the carphone warehouse and EE shops in my town had to get rid of like 200 chargers because they had different ones in that didn't completely melt the phones But yeah, S4 for whoever was asking. 750 mb is enough as long as you're using wifi at home, work etc.

Can get the S4 or HTC One for the same price. Anyone got either or know which one I should get? And is 750mb data enough per month do you reckon? Anyone? HTC One. Looks better both in terms of software and hardware, better camera, more storage (due to Samsung bloatware the S4's 16GB storage is practically halved straight out the box) and the aluminium case makes it feel more premium than the S4's cheap plastic. In terms of data usage, it depends what you're going to be using it for. If you're just browsing the internet on a day-to-day basis then it should suffice but streaming videos and music is a no-no. It'd probably be cheaper the buy the Nexus 5 and get a SIM-only contract.

What Kesh said, but iPhones are wank so I don't know why you're even bothering considering one. What do you actually use your phone for? You might not even need these high-end beasts you're talking about. If you're a person that will just use the internet on it when you're bored, send the occasional text and play the occasional game then perhaps a mid-end phone like the Galaxy Ace 3, or even the HTC One Mini might be alright for you, and cheaper. If you're definitely gonna go for a high-end phone though, you might also want to consider the LG G2. Whilst it's button placement may take some getting used to, it's up there with the big boys and might be cheaper because LG aren't as popular as others in regards to phones.

I have the HTC One and I'm not overly impressed with it. The software on it is good but the size is a bit annoying. I used to have an iPhone 4S and you could unlock it then use it with one hand. Takes two or some awkward handwork to do that on the HTC but I imagine that might be the same on other phones of a similar size.
I have a Nokia Lumia 925 as my work phone and I like that a lot better than my HTC One or old iPhones. A good size, easy to use one handed and Windows Phone 8 is actually quite good. It has all the apps for it that I regularly use/used on Android/iOS so unless there are any specific apps you want which arent available on Windows I'd take another look at the Nokias. I think the Nokia Lumia 1025 is the newest one which is meant to be in line with the HTC One and S4

Olivier Ever considered swapping it for a HTC One Mini? Literally exactly the same phone, just smaller.

I have got an LG G2. I did quite a bit of searching around about it before i bought it and the only fault i could find on it was about the button placement. And i really don't mind the button placement. Does take getting used to, but you don't really need to use the buttons(turn screen on by double tapping the screen, same for turning it off). The phone itself is quite big, but unlocking it isn't a problem as you can turn on facial recognition and just line the camera up to your face.
The G2 is mean't to be up there with the big boys but as i've only had it for a short while i haven't fully been able to test it. Depending on what network your wanting to go for, you can get it for a cheap as(maybe even cheaper) £27 a month with O2. Thats unlimited text and calls with 1gb data.

Think I might go into a shop and see if they have any on display so I can see if it's any better. It's the position and design of the unlock button on the top which is the major pain. The Nokia unlock button is on the side right where you index finger or thumb goes (depending on which hand you pick it up with) and it presses much easier.

Anyone here played Sleeping Dogs?
Was quite excited that its a free download but I can't get into it at all. Seems like a really bad Hong Kong Godfather type. Is it worth sticking with?

daveyposhboy Yeah but only for a couple of hours. Seemed like a slightly shitter GTA but in Hong Kong, which isn't necessarily a bad thing, I enjoyed it. Olivier As I said before, it's literally exactly the same phone. Everything's in the same place, it's just a smaller screen so you'll find it easier to reach the unlock button. The HTC One has a 4.7" screen, whilst the Mini has a 4.3" screen. It doesn't sound like a lot but when the two phones are side by side, the difference is huge: Mind you, compared to the HTC One Max (which has a stupidly big 5.9" screen), both seem like dwarves: What's even more startling is that the HTC One Max is tiny compared to the Sony Xperia Ultra, which at 6.4" is just ridiculously big. It's too big to be a phone but too small to be a tablet, what is the point...? For referential purposes, the Sony Xperia Z on the left there is slightly bigger than the HTC One (5").
