All The Best Contract Phone Deals Currently Available, A Megathread (Includes Apple, Google, Sony, Honor, Samsung etc.)

You don't have to talk to them unless you are after a new deal then you would have to.

If you just want to leave then just Text:Pac to 65075 get you Pac and move your number to someone else.

You just give the Pac to your new provider and your account with three will be closed automatically.

I would not necessarily wait until *after* the iPhone 15 is released. Some retailers may be trying to clear inventory before the release of the iPhone 15 fearing that they will not have the right to sell it as a new device afterwards.

For example, last year, Apple withdrew all iPhone 13 Pro and iPhone 13 Pro Max from sale immediately on the day of the release of the 14 Pro / Pro Max. Apple themselves stopped selling any and any authorised retailers were only allowed to sell any left over stock as 'refurbished' phones.

However, some retailers preempted this by heavily discounting their new devices in the last couple of weeks before the release of the 14. For example, I seem to recall Amazon selling 1TB 13 Pro (or maybe 13 Pro Max) for £999 which was near £500 reduction and arguably a better deal than an iPhone 14 Pro 128GB for £1099 especially if you need the storage.

If you think that's going to happen, then don't gte a contract deal

Why would you bother with the ball ache and waste of time returning multiple phones?

They are a truly incompetent company. Beaten only by Vodafone in my worst ever experiences in dealing with anyone that you're paying to treat you like a .....

A mate at work bought an s21 ultra from there any highly recommends them. They were cheaper than most other sites selling refurbs and the phone he bought was mint. Seen myself and can confirm his is immaculate. Assume he opted for excellent condition. Hope this helps

Have done one of those in the past

Completely agree, anyone who's taken out a contract for the last 2 years has been burned.

The worst thing is that they apply the increase to the whole amount - phone and airtime.

Even a 12 month sim only is far better - because you'll only have 1 increase on a much lower amount - normally £10-15 a month

No guarantees there this year

I wouldn't go near a pixel. I don't know about the 7, but my pixel 6 has been the worst phone ever. I don't mind the poor battery life, the getting hot and the underdelivering camera. But I do mind the inability to call, the dropped calls, the poor reception and the terrible customer support.

I have had a pixel 7 from release and never had a battery issue , day to day battery life has been excellent so far .

no yearly rises from lebara

Can a BT employee share that code or is it only for that individual?

14 day cancellation with most devices for the contract part, and new phones come factory unlocked as standard now too

Can't say I have bud

Honor 90 on offer currently £399, 512gb model, bargain for what you get.

I would not get one. My experience hasn't been great. The front screen is way to small. I barely use the inner screen as it kept getting dusty and most of the apps aren't optimised even on Samsungs fold plus the cases and camera are not Equal to the price you pay I can't wait to go back to the s24 ultra next year

Apparently new Samsung s23 do this feature aswell I got my eye on s23 ultra but can't decide if to big :/

Get the Honor Magic 5 pro, the Xiaomi 13 Ultra, the Huawei P60 Pro (no native Google Play, but can be siloaded) or Samsung S23 Ultra. Avoid Pixels (the Tensor ones) at all costs.

I have a Poco f3. Camera is decent enough in daylight but like a lot of phones it's poor at night. Best camera I ever had was hauwei mate 20 pro may be worth seeing if you could pick up a cheap one

LOL, love it!

I've been reading the next S24 series could be making a return of both Snapdragon and Exynos variants, so if that's the case, it's likely Europe will get the Exynos.
That would put me off going forward, currently have the S23 ultra, and battery life and Snapdragon processor is excellent

I've just got the Honor Magic 5 Pro.... by far the best phone I've had since I lost my P30 Pro. Recommend giving it a look if you're a P30 Pro fan.

Could change anytime, I left my house yesterday and only got 100 yards to find them laying foundations for 2 green phone boxes and a Three mast

Still got my mate 20 pro.. Battery is just something else and still snappy.. What a bargain it was at £170

There aren't many currently unfortunately

unfortunately not

100%. This is why I buy my phone's outright

No chance until the 24. 

Cheers man
