So the summer is coming to an end, yet we seem to be enjoying some rare sunshine here in the UK. To celebrate this rarity we have decided to put together a list of our 8 favourite mobile phones and the best deals that are available with them. We might make this a regular feature, it just depends how useful you guys think it is. So let’s get started.
1. Nokia N97 deals – The hottest Nokia mobile phone out there right now. Yes it has a few problems, but nothing a few firmware updates will sort out. You can get a free ipod shuffle on T-Mobile with 800 minutes and unlimited texts for under £40.00 per month.
2. HTC Hero deals – Android is the way forward and the HTC Hero is the best of the lot. At £15 per month cheaper than the N97 it is worthy of the number 2 spot. You do only get 400 minutes per month though.
3. HTC Touch diamond 2 deals – much improved from the original Diamond, we really like the interface on this phone. £30.00 per month on O2 is the one to beat here, with 400 minutes and 500 texts.
4. Sony W995 deals – The best Sony Ericsson phone available in the market at the moment. You get music, camera and a sleek design all rolled into one. And for a little of £21.00 per month on Orange we think that it is a bargain.
5. Blackberry 8520 deals -No list would be complete without a Blackberry. The new 8520 is a slimmer sleeker version of the older models and we are very impressed with it. There is a deal with Orange offering £170 cashback on a £35.00 per month deal, so now is the time to grab this one whilst its cheap.
6. Nokia 5530 deals – Wow this is a cheap mobile phone. Vodafone are offering this one with 600 minutes and unlimited texts for just £21.00 per month, an absolute bargain.
7. Samsung Jet deals – The new addition to Android community has been well received and if you are looking for an alternative to HTC this one needs to be considered. Grab it O2 for £29.35 per month on O2 or £21.20 on Orange if you don’t mind cashback deals.
8. Nokia N86 deals – Gamers delight in this fabulous handset. Yes there are cheaper Nokia phones out there, but if you like to game then this one is a must. Vodafone are offering it for £31.00 with 600 minutes unlimited texts.
So there you have it our run down of the best mobile phones with the best deals. It is probably worth bearing in mind that these offer change quickly so grab them whilst they are still around.

Samsung Jet S8000. We like. We like a lot.

We like phones that aren’t pretentious. We like phones that don’t pretend to be more than what they are. And we like phones that feel well-designed from top to bottom and from inside to you.

Three simple things, but three things that very, very rarely get a tick from us in relation to one phone. The Samsung Jet S8000, however, gets a nice big red check against each one of these.

Not pretentious? Nope, this is a mid-range phone, not pretending to be anything else. But that’s not to say it’s lazy, either. A good example is the camera. Fair enough, it’s only 5 megapixels. But with those five megapixels you get Autofocus, a Dual LED Flash, auto Face Detection, Smile Shot, Panorama option, Blink Detection, Geo-tagging and a nice simple Photo Editor. Then add to that the video capturing at 720×480 with 30fps, and also the slow motion video capture (QVGA resolution) and suddenly your nodding your head, impressed with what Samsung have achieved with the Samsung Jet.

Doesn’t pretend to be more than it is? Nope, this could be nothing other than a mid-ranger. The screen, for example, is not really that big – 3.1-inches. It’s plenty big enough for all the things the phone can do, and with the AMOLED technology is as bright and clear as anything else out there, but Samsung haven’t been tempted to stick a needlessly huge screen on a crap phone to make it seem bigger and better than it is. Not only this, but the rest of the phone’s design is absolutely perfect – from the colours to the materials to the curves, it’s all fantastic.

So it’s well-designed from top-to-bottom and outside. And inside, with the newest version of TouchWiz, zipping along thanks to the 800mhz processor, all is more than dandy too.

What more can we say? Apart from watch this space very carefully indeed, to find out the launch date, as the Samsung Jet could be a phone to make you as happy as it’s made us. Read a full Samsung Jet Review here for more persuading, or have a look at the nice little video below:
