    Back for Good??

    Finally the contract ran out.

    Finally I badgered Orange to give me a good deal!

    The S3 is on its way.


    Question......Do I keep the Desire HD or Fleebay it? Who cares I got a S3!!!



    Are the S3's branded??

    Do I need to start reading up on how to customise it before I get it?

    Turned down the One X due to battery usage and lack of SD card was I wise?

    Comments clean, dirty or otherwise please.
    Retired DHD, now on S3 and loving it.

    S3 over HTC one x - good choice for the reasons you gave.
    Very likely the Orange s3 will be network locked, but not a problem if you are sticking to Orange, especially under the ee umbrella and 4g.
    As Dan 37 said, easy enough to unlock (I used Valhalla)

    Good home for the Desire HD here, at the right price - to tinker around on.

    Crazy fool. The new iPhone 5 is due out next week. A real opportunity missed.
    I could be wrong, I usually am. (Because it's only a phone)

    Got the beast yesterday....................HD video streamed straight to the TV (samsung).

    Even the Missus was impressed, Daughter looked at it said "hmmmm" and went back the her Sony ARC (bl**dy good name for it. I think Noah had one!).

    So far very impressed.
