HTC Sensation XE Sim Free with Beats now £247.00 at Asda.
Was a good price at £297 but now even better with a £50 cut. Click and collect or postage from £2.95. I'm sure everyone knows the specs by now, still a top of the range phone with dual core, expandable memory and upgradable to ICS.
Also comes with everyone's favourites, Dre Beats ;)

Just take the £36 (minus Quidco) HTC One X deal that has a very usable contract. Won't put a hole in your wallet and you get a newer phone.
Not sure what planet you are on with that advice.. A £36 contract is a massive hole in the wallet. This phone works out at only £20 a month and will be for people that have a sim only contract they are happy with...
E.g. £100 cashback confirmed from my current sim-only contract, plus sell value of my current phone is £150. This means I have £250 to spend on a sim-free mobile at effective zero cost. :)

Are you ok with the signal on it? There are issues reported with the Sensation antenna like the iphone 4. I really like the Sensation and prefer HTC sense but this 'problem' if it exists put me off. I've had a few Android phones, none of them find and hold a signal like my Blackberry 9780.
I got this when it included the beats headphones, which are pretty good, but not essential.
Hot deal, feasible alternative to GS2, probably not quite as good around, but a little less common
Was holding out for a decent S3 deal but I prefer having a sim free handset and using my own sim and when I saw this price I thought it had to be shared and now I'm quite tempted myself! :)
You can get an Anker 1900 High Capacity battery from Amazon for about £6 delivered which greatly improves battery life
I also recommend rooting and installation of ARHD ROM which gives full ICS functionality
The phone can also be unlocked for free and everything else from the link below

its well worth £250,i had no signal issues and the battery last around a day , like most other smart phones
The CPU is faster than the iPhone 4S and can be overclocked further ;-)

But won't run ios.. so does cpu speed really matter :)

Surely it matters even more with a less restrictive OS, not that I want to start up the most boring flame war on the internet again. :p
Voted hot even though I'm waiting for a cheap Xperia S or Galaxy Note.

The only grouse is the screen could be better in bright sunshine - but that's academic right now. On the upside I think it has a much better build quality than the SGS2.
I'd echo the suggestion to get the higher capacity Anker battery from Amazon. I haven't got around to installing ARHD; but from everything I've seen that's probably the way to go until Jelly Bean comes out either officially or via the xda-developers
