Fortunately, some people are smart enough to consider other operating systems.

This years winner for liberal but over informative, and at the same time useless 'I don't give a toss' copy and paste.

Unfortunately, it's not an Android.

I have got this phone as a work phone. One problem that I find with it is that the screen is very unresponsive at times.

When I was there last night the new Lumia 550 was £49.99 on upgrade. Seemed to be well specced!

you forgot to include Vodafone at that price.
anyway, not really a new deal, been this price for certain network upgrades for quite a few months, and posted before.
used to be tmob and orange on the cheaper upgrade price, now it's flipped around.

How is this a good price? Especially for an upgrade? Usual price is below £50 anyway. Heck even the 635 can often be found for £49.99 with a small £10 top up.
£39.99 is a good price but a pathetic offering for an upgrade deal, upgrades are usually ridiculously cheap so if anyone does have an upgrade sim I am sure they would use it on a better offer than this.

How is this a good deal when you could get it 2 months ago on virgin for a fiver. This is about the price cex sell it for. Best hold off till cpw do 'their' deals

If you are not on Virgin and own a Tardis you may have your work cut out trying to match this price. Could you provide the link for CEX please as it comes up as £65 when I try.
- if you order online you don't need to pay for sim - they are sending free sim that needs to be top up regardless of tariff you selected on pay as you go .

Can be got from Tesco free on pay monthly tariff from £7.50
You dont have to have a tardis just patience. I have never paid more than 20 for one of these and cpw do regular deals on their upgrades. It is the wrong time to buy one
Wow i thought Microsoft would have given up on flogging a dead horse by now trying to monopolize the mobile business but it seems like there bottomless pit of money is allowing them to use the the old method of throwing enough sh** against the wall and hoping some of it sticks.
I have a Microsoft surface pro 2 (i5 8GB ram 256gb) , 8" windows 10 tablet as well as building over 10x PC over the years and i have been using PC's long before the vast majority of general public did not even know what it meant.But evan after all that i have to say that there phones are as about enticing as catching herpes.
