Get a great phone without spending too much with the best phones under £500

If only my gardening knowledge was as good as my phone knowledge!

 

@pete if you go into somewhere like Carphone Warehouse or Currys they will show you all the different deals on all of the networks. You will also be able to look at the phones and see what you feel comfortable with. I think that both even give you a trade in cost for your old phone and you can use that against your new phone. I did it with mine in Currys.

 

But would they transfer my pics from my phone to the new one, as I cant get my info off my old phone I dont fancy passing it on to someone else.
Nothing dodgy on there, just dont think its right.

 

Ask them. I am sure they will. Alternatively if there are only a handful attach them to an email or emails and send them to yourself whilst on Wi-Fi.

 

Then when you get your new phone you can save them again

 

There are quite a few, some I could delete, but most I'd like to keep.

 

You need to check your email mailbox capacity limit and maximum size of your attachments. In Yahoo I can attach up to about 15MB, maybe more. So I attach a few photos to an email. Try it. I am sure though that Currys took my photos off for me and put them on a USB stick and then put them on my new phone.

 

I'll see what they have to say, just on a memory stick would be fine.

 

You should be able to put your pic's onto the sim card from the phone, have a google how to do it with your make of phone

 

Yeah, but if I buy a new phone, new sim, surely the old one wont work??

 

Pete, another option might be to transfer photos via bluetooth if you can get your PC to recognise the phone. You click on the bluetooth icon on your PC, select 'receive files'. Select a batch of photos on your phone and click 'share'. Your phone should then ask you where to send the photos
Click on your PC name/identity and they transfer. No cables required. It's not the fastest way but it does work

 

I'll have to try that one tomorrow, but thanks, I'm on the gin at the moment, never drank the stuff till now, But I'm getting to like it.

 

I went to this place last week and bought some, never liked it before.
