EE Deals & Offers

Camera quality has very little to do with pixel count.

The camera is a lot better isn't it 16mb as to 13mp and there's a better screen

I'm all ears, I am considering this phone but can be persuaded elsewhere

Yes, slightly better. ID Mobile are offering this for the same £ and the P Smart for £10. Less mins and data though. Just got the p smart for one of my kids. Not bad at that price.

Is this phone better than the P smart

Not even guaranteed the cashback as some networks like to decline it for no reason as for vouchers guaranteed by network.

No It won't work

Do virgin SIMs work out of the box in EE-locked devices (eg MiFis) or would I need to unlock them first?

Damn I didn't even see that deal.

No I was gonna say a banana. But you win.

According to this reviewer battery is excellent even if capacity is not bigger

I bought this from cex 3 weeks ago. It came blacklisted unfortunately but they did refund allowing to buy a different phone It was quite heavy in comparison to all other phones we have in our house and it didn't have the large battery as an excuse which I think makes this a very poor design choice. Performance is amazing so for those who want excellent speed which can be useful in playing emulator games such as God of war. It's great device for it

Sorry, i missed that point. Spot on, take it back.

I know. So how can CEX have two listings then? Grade B - Xperia XZ Premium (Three) Network £215 Grade B - Xperia XZ Premium (Unlocked) £245 Three phones are unlocked anyway as standard. My phone is splash screen branded and comes with three firmware with three utilities as stock. Therefore shouldn't I expect it to be sold as a Grade B Xperia XZ Premium (Three) Network phone?

Unlocked doesn't mean debranded. 2 completely separate things.

Looooooooool, ask me another?, hehehehe. :-D

Haha, I know, some weird comments in this thread hahahahaha

"Can’t go wrong for a fiver". The OP list's their own Deal as £9?!. Where'd you rather get £5 from?. It's cool though. :-D

To be fair, I never said it was unlocked

lol...

Same here.

Gone up to £14.49 for me, and I have a Prime account.

This done it for New York for a week and a tour of the South for three week. Paid £10 for the 3gb version last 3 months used it in a dual sim phone. Worked perfectly speeds are not what you would get it the UK but perfectly acceptable

I used 3 pre loaded with 12gb i think before for a vegas trip but they are about 30 quid now on amazon, although spotted 3gb for 13.99 on amazon prime

Anyone done anything like this for the USA . I’d welcome suggestions, thanks

Not in low light from a distance, mine would start to focus in out like a cheap Chinese phone That's been the same experience for all my Sony phones so it wasn't just one

Funny how sony provide most phone manufacturers the camera modules, google pixel, s8, iPhone 7/8, are using Sony cameras in fact Sony provide 80% off all camera modules, I had xz for 16 months camera was excellent and so was video quality.

Sony cameras are always a letdown, I've got the xz and it is unstable as f. However if you have the m4 aqua it's a great outdoor phone, probably the only drawbacks are no pinch zoom and you have to concatenate the storage. Samsung is still unquestionably the leader in camera phones but they deliberately have low life batteries that are useless after 2 years. For my low light photos I got a lumia 950, the os is obsolete but has ois and are 90 from cex

The xz2 actually was the only phone, that survived the water test, in recent YouTube video, after 48 hours the LG 7, s8, iPhone x and p20 all failed after 2 days. Sony durability is always far superior thats why there phones are thicker allowing for greater tolerances for there components, the reviewers are always bias against Sony phones, when Sony did waterproofing they said it was a gimmick, now is the norm, don't go on tech site reviews they all paid journalists

Can pick this up from Sony with wireless charger included 649 https://estore.sonymobile.com/gb/basket/add/

A bit of persistance, I've had this matched too :) A manager had to do something in the background to allow the agent to see the offer. This has saved me a real hassle of getting pak codes and PAYG sims to keep my number (which I would have been doing today if I didn't get the deal), aswell as saving me 2 further payments in my current contract. Happy Dan! EDIT: I also just needed to pay the £6.98.

Well bit of news. After a complete rant over chat i got transferred to the digital upgrades team. Lovely girl called Amy. After a 48min conversation EE matched the deal from buymobiles.net after supplied evidence. At first i don't think she believed me one bit, but after showing her the link to the buymobiles.net deal she changed her tune and matched the deal on the spot. If your not having success then supply evidence of the deal, as she said they get everyone trying it on everyday. Happy at last 8)

I asked for my PAC because I didn’t feel I was getting a good enough deal and required more data. The guy was keen to help. Maybe worth trying to call them up again.

Didn't work for me. My upgrade is due in October and they said I'd have to wait - even when I saw I knew someone who had done this, guy on the phone wasn't having any of it.

Meh! Hoping retention ring soon. The woman was adamant I wasn't getting this deal. Suppose I'm one of the unlucky ones (nerd) (flirt)

Problem is that I have multiple contactless cards in my wallet so I can't just tap my wallet to pay - I have to open it and take the card out. Much easier for me to just take out my phone, scan my fingerprint, and tap. It's not just that though, I really like being able to instantly see how much I've paid through a push notification on the app, not many banks offer this through their own applications (I think Monzo does) and mine (Nationwide) shows all pending purchases as a Visa debit transaction - so informative!

Yep! Or purse, Nfc, pfft.

Haha way I see it if I have to get my phone out, I can easily get my wallet out just the same

Overrated, just blu tac your debit card to the back of your phone, and hey presto! Nfc

I can live without NFC and a great camera. As long as I've got WhatsApp I'm all good lol

Thanks for posting this deal. I was on SIM only but called up retentions and managed to upgrade to the P20 Pro for the £33 pm for 20GB and 24 Months of BT Sport. I had to pay a £6.99 delivery charge on top but I was paying £20 a month for the same plan without BT Sport so the Phone + 2 years BT Sport is costing me under £320 over 2 years.

update - I think the reason I received a 20% discount was because the store advisor put me down as a PAYG customer going to contract. I never asked her to (glad she did though), this probably explains why people are struggling to match my deal....

Just saw on nectar site you can possibly get 10,000 nectar points if you take out new contract in store, you need to go on Site and get code first to show in store. Wish I’d known!

seemed so lol he said the 20% would be a code and if the sales rep gave out a code then thats a nono *shrug*

well that seems harsh! ha. It's not like it is £15 a month is it? its a maximum of £2.60 cheaper than numerous sites are offering.

gone for this, thanks OP im paying £22 for 20Gb SIMO right now, had around 4 months left on my contract but it said i could upgrade. used the bmw code so got 40Gb SIMO for £20! cant go wrong!

Thanks for the code! I just rang EE as my 12 month contract end on the 23rd of this month. He wasn’t for budging at first, saying that’s the only deal he could give me (40GB £25) I mentioned that you’ve been offering it to other people for £20 - It’s on Top Cashback & UK Hot Deals, I also have this code - Then he offered it for £20. Roll on next month for my new IPhone

I think the vodafone 40gb offer work 110 Amazon voucher and 25/month is more attractive

Yes I’m sure,It’s £5 for a BT sports itself a month after 3 months then an additional £10 a month if you want the one you talk about. So add another £15 pm after the free trial if you wanna keep all the features

Are you sure there's 2 levels of BT sport one where you can put this in a 4g tablet and get access on the tablet then you can pay a tenner after 3 months and get multiple devices and Chromecast.

Agreed credit when you can afford is healthy and it builds a credit rating which gets you things like a lower mortgage and better finance on a car. People like him who "save" for everything are the people who have the insanely high rate mortgages and then blame the rest of society as they have always kept to within what they believe are society's rules. So I hate it when people come on threads like this just to throw their opinions that people should just save. How about you just goto your cave and over pay for your house and cave with your backwater ideals? As unless you can save for your entire house you too need credit.

They constantly try to tempt me with these deals, first it was Samsung vr kit then the 360 camera I find it's all a bit desperate on EE's part

EE naaaaah never again

Most sensible people leverage credit when it’s appropriate, for instance when something they can afford and would like is available at 0% credit

It does talk about adding it to a plan. I think that’s clear.

Get dissent branded device and you will be fine. Many people buying cheap Chinese models and start complain about.

Of course is not about how many devices, Look at this article - the only person who fight for ios was you, rest of forumers staid calm. Generally you do support ios and see yours benefits in it - i don't. Reason why i answered in short because i can see your full enthusiastic in ios... I let you satisfy with it but it didn't worked for me. ... And be honest, we at work place cisco engineers, mostly do not support ios. Nothing against unix, only against iOS restricted functions.

Six months to a year later and by then your manufacturer and carrier have stuck their dirty fingers in it.

It's not about who has the most phones. Your comment was "who likes ios???", the answer is over 1.3 Billion. An interesting asside, however, note how Android has an install base of just over 2 Billion active users, which is indeed far greater than 1.3 Billion and means that Android is live on about 35% more devices overall. However, that does give an interesting dynamic. Android outsell iOS devices approximately 86 devices to every 15 (worldwide), but despite this they only have a 35% swing in active users. That's one hell of a lot more Android devices chucked in the bin every year than Apple devices and highlights the value of the Apple proposition. You do indeed spend more buying an Apple iPhone, and some of that pricing is indeed high level profits for Apple. But on the flip side you iDevice will, statistically, last far longer and end up saving you money over time. It's the same with their line of computers, they cost more upfront, but add in the years of software support and resale value and you will usually end up saving over time.

Ios - just reached 1.3b devices, android - year and half ago over 2b.
