			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>This beautiful but simple all-screen smartphone was introduced by Nokia this September with expectations of answering the challenges of the mobile phone industry. Also knows as the Nokia N9 Lankku the device weighs at just 135g with dimensions of 116.5 x 61.2 x 12.1 mm. However, the features this device houses is simply astonishing.</p>
<p><img class="alignleft size-medium wp-image-889" src="http://www.contractsimonlydeals.co.uk/wp-content/uploads/2011/11/Nokia-N9-00-300x300.png" alt="Nokia N9" width="300" height="300" />With a vivid AMOLED capacitive touchscreen that stretches up to 3.9inches accompanied by the reputed scratch and bump resistant Gorilla glass display the Nokia N9 has a bold and unique design. Since this device has a curved glass swiping through has become easier than ever when switching from one app to another. It is just a continuous flow of swiping without any home keys.</p>

<p>The N9 is also the ultimate storage device of the modern era. With a gigantic internal storage capacity of 16GB/64GB backed up by a 1GB RAM Nokia has turned an entirely new era of mobile storage. Therefore it is obvious that the device houses no external card slot. Boasting of the new MeeGo v1.2 Harmattan operating system this power house has the support of a 1GHz Cortex A8 CPU, a PowerVR SGX530 GPU and the TI OMAP 3630 chipset. Therefore, your N9 will be able to slice through speed requirements.</p>

The Nokia N9 also supports fast and easy web browsing with HTML5. So, getting multiple rich web pages to your screen within seconds is not an issue.</p>
<p>The people connecting everyone have designed this device to the high-end market with a unique price. However, they have been cautious enough not to overprice it so that their potential customers will get the best out of what they purchase.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>This is undoubtedly the ultimate business smartphone with a sense of entertainment and loads of business applications. Released last February this device has been the partner of not only leading business entities but also of the youth. Weighing just at 176g with dimensions of 123.7 x 62.4 x 13.6 mm the E7 is one of the forerunners in the mobile phone market.</p>
<p><img class="alignleft size-medium wp-image-892" src="http://www.contractsimonlydeals.co.uk/wp-content/uploads/2011/11/Nokia-E7-300x272.jpg" alt="Nokia E7" width="300" height="272" />With a 4inch ClearBlack AMOLED capacitive touchscreen rich with 16million colors this device also houses a QWERTY keyboard. So, touching or typing is simply your choice. The bright screen studded within will give your crystal clear images when you are outdoors. Therefore, this compact and slim smartphone has managed to take mobile devices into a totally new level.</p>
<p>A sense of entertainment is added with its 8MP camera that can draw your memories within a space of a lens. Powered by features like fixed focus, geo-tagging, pinch zoom, dual LED flash as well as face and smile detection the Nokia E7 has respected the professional standards of photography. It also has HD quality 720p resolution video recording and a secondary camera.</p>
<p>The Nokia E7 syncs with Microsoft Outlook to correspond with speedier emails and has access to Microsoft Communicator Mobile. Furthermore, this device has the ability to read, edit and share Word, Excel and PowerPoint documents polishing its business-like appearance. It has fully customizable home screens that have access a variety of apps ranging from your social networking sites to music players. Furthermore, with fully integrated email and social networks you will be able to manage a 24/7 news feed.</p>
<p>This super business phone houses a massive 16GB of internal storage. Furthermore, there is a 1GB ROM and a 256MB RAM that accelerates this powerhouse. An external card slot is not seen within this device. Connectivity features like GPRS, EDGE 3G (HSDPA 10.2Mbps / HSUPA 2Mbps) and Wi-Fi play a vital role in its list of features. The E7 functions under the Symbian^3 operating system which is also upgradable to Symbian Anna. It is backed up by a 680 MHz ARM 11 processor and a Broadcom BCM2727 GPU which are key players for better performance.</p>
<p>The Nokia E7 also has access to Nokia Ovi maps which will enable the inflow of all required information by you. You can simply check the surroundings and make full use of Trip Advisor and Lonely Planet. Free car and pedestrian navigation coupled with voice guidance will only add color to this device. The price range of the Nokia E7 too seems to be business-like since it is a device developed for the high-end market. However, the benefits which you receive through it will hardly outdo the economic value of this business powerhouse.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Undoubtedly one of the best mobiles phones by HTC, the Vivid is a device which has grabbed a large share of their potential market within a short period of release. They announced its arrival this October and released it next month extending a sound challenge to everyone who means business. This Android phone weighs at just 176g and contains a surprise pack of features within.</p>
<p><img class="alignleft size-medium wp-image-897" src="http://www.contractsimonlydeals.co.uk/wp-content/uploads/2011/11/htc_vivid_2-210x300.jpg" alt="HTC Vivid" width="210" height="300" />With an S-LCD capacitive touch screen the HTC Vivid houses a massive 4.5inch screen which is rich with 256K colors. With a multi-touch input method which only adds color to this device it consists of various features like HTC Sense and smooth touch sensitive controls. The internal memory capacity has much to say when it comes to its features. Being practically unlimited for entries and fields this device boasts of a gigantic internal storage capacity of 16/32GB which is backed up by a 1GB RAM. However, memory options are plenty because if you are unsatisfied with its storage abilities a microSD slot will be waiting for you.</p>
<p>When these features combine with an 8MP camera quality that can draw vivid pictures of your precious moments the outcome is a winning pair. Powered by a secondary camera of 1.3MP – second to none of its kind – additional features like geo-tagging, dual LED flash, autofocus and face and smile detection add some value to your purchase. The Vivid has a high definition video camera which operates in 1080p@60fps.</p>
<p>This Android phone is powered by its v2.3.5 (Gingerbread) which is reputed for a marathon performance. Furthermore, it is supported by a 1.2GHz dual-core processor and a Qualcomm APQ8060 Snapdragon chipset. Therefore, the merits are always high when it comes to the HTC Vivid. Connectivity is not a problem in this slim member that boasts of features like GPRS, EDGE, 3G (HSDPA, HSUPA, LTE) and Wi-Fi. Since the Vivid is DLNA friendly you will be able to connect this device without any hassle with your DLNA enabled devices to share images, audio and video.</p>
<p>This device also supports the much requested 3.5mm audio jack which hints the ‘musical boost’ which it is capable of. Coming into the shelves in black and white, the Vivid is competitive when it comes to GPS because it houses A-GPS powered navigation that never lets you down. With HTC Sense you will also be able to stay up to date with your surroundings extending from share market price lists to weather conditions right out of your doorstep. This is a moderately priced device in the market which enables both professional and fun-loving folks to take a shot and gain a lifetime experience.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Take you glasses off and enjoy some quality 3D shots before you! This is what the HTC EVO 3D is all about. It brags about a high riding feeling and caters as well. So, now your images can reflect a depth which was found in their original stage. Being one of the slimmest devices by HTC this device was released in July with expectations of tapping an esteem market.</p>
<p><img class="alignleft size-medium wp-image-901" src="http://www.contractsimonlydeals.co.uk/wp-content/uploads/2011/11/htc-evo-3d-300x294.png" alt="HTC EVO 3D" width="300" height="294" />Weighing just at 170g this device houses a 16million color rich 3D LCD capacitive touchscreen which expands to a good 4.3inches. This stunning view will give consumers crisp websites and vivid, incredibly fluid images and videos. Practically housing an unlimited space for fields and entries the HTC EVO 3D houses a 1GB internal storage capacity which is quite lesser than its family members. However, using a microSD chip you can expand your data warehouse up to 32GB. A 1GB RAM backs up the workhorse performance of this device.</p>
<p>The camera is a separate feature that wins a spotlight. The 5MP camera of the EVO 3D has some unique features like stereoscopic photo and video backup packed with other features like geo-tagging, autofocus and dual LED flash. Its high definition video camera operates at 720p (2D and 3D) with a 1.3MP secondary camera.</p>
<p>This is another face of the Android v.2.3 (Gingerbread) operating system which has a proven track record and is powered by a 1.2GHz dual-core processor, an Adreno 220 GPU and a Qualcomm MSM8660 chipset. Its connectivity is quite commanding with features like GPRS, EDGE, 3G (HSDPA 14.4Mbps and HSUPA 5.76Mbps) and Wi-Fi.</p>
<p>When the latest flash player and a dual core processor combine the result becomes nothing less than richer and faster browsing and windows that display in an ultimate 3D environment. This is also a tool that helps you watch on-demand Hollywood movies across multiple HTC devices. As it is sensitive to Wi-Fi hotspots anytime, you can use your EVO 3D to share you connection with multiple devices wirelessly.</p>
<p>Furthermore, you will be able to use HTC Sense to manage your Friend Stream and access social networking sites like Facebook and Twitter without any hassle. As this is a DLNA enabled device, sharing your images and clips across DLNA friendly big screen TVs and other devices is not a distinct target now. Coming into the market only in Solid Black the EVO 3D is placed in the high-end consumer market. Thus HTC has aimed the touch of 3D into a potential which is classy and entertaining always.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><img class="alignleft size-full wp-image-859" title="large n8 blue" src="http://www.contractsimonlydeals.co.uk/wp-content/uploads/2011/10/largen8blue.jpg" alt="nokia n8" width="133" height="250" />The Nokia N8 is an absolutely amazing phone and the phone appears to be one of the best Nokia phones up to now. At the first mention of the N8, people think of brilliant 12 megapixel camera. The amazing video options and exquisite camera are what makes this phone different than the others. This practical touchscreen phone can help you capture the moment to the smallest details. What every N8 user will find useful is that this mega successful phone is in fact no different than any other Nokia phone. The similarity between Nokia phones makes it easy for the users who had a Nokia phone in the past to handle the N8. The basics of all Nokia phones remain the same, therefore users shouldn’t have any trouble learning how to use it.</p>
<p>No matter how powerful the Nokia N8 really is, it still has some drawbacks. One of the major flaws of the N8 is the camera button. In spite of the fact that you wouldn’t expect a camera like this one to have any flaws whatsoever, Nokia have made a pretty noticeable mistake. You should do a bit more than just touch the camera button in order to take a picture. The fact that you must push the button harder can affect the shot, as you will not be able to keep the phone perfectly still.</p>
<p>The Nokia N8 has one other feature which makes this phone different from the others. It has a special type of paint on it that makes it almost impossible for you to leave scratches on the phone. Even if you go as far as testing the phone’s paint job by rubbing your keys on the phone’s surface, there will be no visible marks left.</p>
<p>Secondly, the Nokia N8 is not made to be opened frequently and as a matter of fact, it was not made to be opened at all. You will not be able to open the phone’s back panel unless you have a proper tool for it, and this tool is a screwdriver. To add to this, the slots located at the side of the phone are quite difficult to open, as well. Therefore, if you do not need to open these slots, then you probably should not. Taking into account that the slots are made for the SIM card and Micro SD memory card, there should be no need to open these slots regularly, as these are not taken out every day. However, if you do want to open them, you should be very patient. Also, you will need to have really long fingernails or at least a really sharp object.</p>
<p>It can be concluded that this phone is one of the best phones on the market, especially if we take into consideration the phone’s amazing, 12 megapixel camera. Besides the camera, there are a lot of useful features this phone will provide you with, and the majority of N8 users are very satisfied with this phone, as the flaws related to the N8 are easy to neglect.</p>
<p>You can buy the Nokia N8 for a cheap price today on Pay As You Go or Sim Free. Why not take a look at the latest <a href="http://www.contractsimonlydeals.co.uk/">sim only deals</a> if you have already purchased this phone, are thinking of buying it, or your contract has recently run out. It&#8217;s the most cost effective way to use your Nokia N8!</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><img class="alignleft size-full wp-image-772" title="large mozart" src="http://www.contractsimonlydeals.co.uk/wp-content/uploads/2011/09/large7mozart.jpg" alt="HTC Mozart" width="136" height="250" />Among the Windows 7 phones, such as the HTC HD7 for instance, the HTC Mozart is the only one with an averagely sized display. It is a very nice looking phone, with a smooth finish and it feels very posh and exudes high quality. However, the modern marketplace is a fierce battleground and every mobile phone maker has to always do its best in order to make a phone model that has something special to offer when compared to other phones available on the market. Therefore, it is perfectly natural to expect that a phone named Mozart will bring something new to the table, at least when it comes to music.</p>
<p>The truth is that all Windows 7 phones have great music playing capabilities, and the HTC Mozart is no exception. Namely, all of these phones have the same music player, which has proven to be very good and very easy to use. It is very important that every mobile phone that aims to provide people with a great musical experience has enough memory, and the HTC Mozart comes in models that have 8 GB and 16 GB of internal memory. Aside from all of this, this mobile phone also has a completely new feature in Windows 7 phones, and this feature is called SRS WOW HD. Now, even though this feature sounds out of this world, it simply represents a surround sound system for the phone and a better sounding bass. However, the reality is that the SRS WOW HD only has a cool sounding name, and it doesn’t do very much for the music experience.</p>
<p>Although it would be far more logical that this phone is great in providing you with a unique music experience, the best thing about the Mozart definitely is its amazing camera. The 8 megapixel camera has a very bright xenon flash and autofocus. Aside from this, there is also the option of 720p HD recording, which is fantastic. However, although the camera is great, there is one problem with it, and this problem was talked about in a lot of customer reviews. Namely, the shutter button, which is used to take pictures, is very hard to press. The difficulty to press this very important button often results in shaking the phone when you are trying to take a picture, which makes the picture blurry.</p>
<p>In conclusion, the HTC Mozart is a mobile phone with a great camera, a decent enough battery life, it is great for listening to music, it is very fast, slick and easy to use, the touchscreen is fantastic and overall, it is a very good phone. The few drawbacks related to this phone can easily be ignored and you should always try to ignore them if you like this phone. Also, it is very important to mention that this phone is a better choice for those people who want to have a good business phone. If you want a phone to have a lot of fun with and use thousands of different apps, you should go for some other mobile phone.</p>
<p>Our aim is to bring you the latest SIM Only deals. If you currently have a phone like the HTC Mozart and are on Pay As You Go (or your contract has just expired) why not consider <a href="http://www.contractsimonlydeals.co.uk/">sim only deals</a> as a cheaper more flexible alternative?

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><img class="alignleft size-full wp-image-761" title="large optimus 2x" src="http://www.contractsimonlydeals.co.uk/wp-content/uploads/2011/09/largeoptimus2x.jpg" alt="lg optimus 2x" width="133" height="250" />Even though not that many people are familiar with this phone, it is a fact that the LG Optimus 2X truly is an outstanding piece of modern technology. It is stylish, it is perfectly built, it is packed with useful applications, it is practical, it is nice to look at and it indeed very smart for a smartphone. All of these things really do sound fantastic, but LG has made some mistakes in designing this phone, which is the main reason why you probably haven’t heard many good things about it. All in all, the LG Optimus 2X is a great smartphone you will be satisfied with most of the time.</p>
<p>The first thing that absolutely needs to be mentioned is the design of this amazingly beautiful mobile phone. Generally speaking, a lot of LG Optimus 2X users liked this phone as soon as they have seen it and they bought it solely based on this initial feeling of amazement. It is really true that people from LG have put a lot of thought into its design, but all this glamour and class has resulted in a phone which is somewhat heavier than its rivals. Even though this seems like a small price to pay for a phone as beautiful as this one, its weight is often a serious drawback. On the other hand, all this doesn’t mean that the phone is bad for handling. On the contrary, its weight and its shape give the LG Optimus 2X the ability to sit perfectly in your hand.</p>
<p>As it has already been mentioned above, there are some drawbacks to this seemingly perfect smartphone, one of these being the lack of actual buttons you can press. Even though the touchscreen works pretty well, you will have to activate it each and every time, by using the power button on the top of the phone. This might become a habit, but it often becomes a very annoying one. Also, there is no actual button for taking camera shots, which is most commonly located at the side of the phone with the rivals of the Optimus.

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<h2><strong>Samsung Galaxy S2 – The Slimmest and Most Powerful Phone Ever?</strong></h2>
<p><img class="alignleft size-full wp-image-754" title="samsung i9100" src="http://www.contractsimonlydeals.co.uk/wp-content/uploads/2011/08/largei9100.jpg" alt="samsung galaxy s2" width="140" height="250" />We all know that Samsung phones are all exemplary in terms of quality, looks and performance but the newly launched Galaxy S2 may just be their best creation so far. With its superior processing power and ultra-slim built, it is without a doubt the best Smartphone in the world today.</p>
<p>This is no exaggeration either. No other phone out there can match the Galaxy S2 when it comes to size and power. Technically, it is not the slimmest mobile phone ever created because there was one other that surpassed it, which was created by NEC. However, this was not released internationally and is only available in Japan. So that makes the Samsung Galaxy S2 the slimmest dual-core processor phone the world has ever seen.</p>
<p>Galaxy S2 runs on the newest version of Google’s Android operating system, the Gingerbread, which is quite a step up from the earlier versions because of various upgrades and added features. This means that with this phone, you will have access to over 150,000 different apps and games for free on the Android market.</p>
<p>All the features that can possibly be added to a Smartphone are in the Galaxy S2. It has a 5-megapixel camera that can take pictures of up to a 2048 x 1536 pixel resolution. You have the option of choosing a 16 GB or 32 GB internal memory, and you can also add microSD memory of up to 32 GB onto an external slot. It also has 1 GB of RAM.  With all this capacity, you will no longer have to worry about running out of storage for your text messages, phone call records, pictures, video and other files.</p>
<p>It comes with the standard communication features as well, such as Wi-Fi, Bluetooth and GPRS. You can also use SMS, MMS, IM and email to get in touch with your contacts, just like in a regular phone. But with the Samsung Galaxy S2, you can take your communication to the next level by taking advantage of the video calling feature using the built-in VGA camera.</p>
<p>Naturally, all these impressive features come at a price, but judging from the sheer satisfaction and joy that you will get from using this Smartphone, it’s easy to see that the price is well worth it. Besides, it’s not that difficult to find great deals that will let you avail the phone at a lower price.</p>
<p>Some of the deals you can look into are contract phones, free SIM offers and pay as you go phone deals. Practically all the top communications providers of UK have some kind of offer involving the Samsung Galaxy S2, including T-mobile, Vodafone, Three, Orange and Virgin. Most contract phone deals include free call minutes, free text messages, instant rebates, assisted GPS support and various Google applications.</p>
<p>Finally, the sleek and professional look of this phone is the perfect final touch. With its elegant black casing, slim form and light weight, it is definitely an ideal phone to use both for business and personal purposes.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><img class="alignleft size-full wp-image-695" title="sim card" src="http://www.contractsimonlydeals.co.uk/wp-content/uploads/2011/06/payg-sim-only.jpg" alt="sim only benefits" width="150" height="144" />There is no doubt about it. SIM Only contracts offer many benefits to mobile phone users. Since their introduction a few years back, <a href="http://www.contractsimonlydeals.co.uk/">SIM Only deals</a> have been slowly growing in popularity. This is because awareness of these offers is spreading and more and more people are wondering if they would be better off applying for these contracts. Moreover in the last few years due to the economic downturn, a lot of users have opted for monthly SIM Only plans because of the uncertainty which surrounds the future and the inevitable job loss risk. It&#8217;s also important to stress that networks themselves realise how these plans are idea for many users and will be growing in popularity. As such, multiple networks, including O2 and T-Mobile have launched extensive advertising campaigns solely focused on promoting their SIM Only plans. This included large budget TV campaigns. So the question arises, exactly what benefits do SIM Only tariffs offer?</p>
<p>We will highlight the main benefits of applying for a SIM Only contract. If you are unsure or just need to be convinced that little bit more, then hopefully this will help you decide for sure whether or not SIM Only is something you should go for.</p>
<p><strong>Cheap </strong>- One of the main benefits of these deals is that they are cheap compared to Pay As You Go, and offer just as much flexibility! Also when you do a like for like comparison with mobile phone contracts, you get much better value for money with the SIM Only plan. This is understandable because you are not getting a free phone, however even so, the offers are extremely cheap. For example, you can benefit from unlimited internet or unlimited texts for only £10 a month. It&#8217;s also important to stress that many of the contracts are only 1 month minimum, so if you only require a certain number of minutes for a few months then you can always cancel, saving you money over a period of time. SIM Only offers are also cheap because the market is very competitive at the minute &#8211; the networks realise the potential of these deals and are keen to sign you up!</p>
<p><strong>Flexibility &#8211; </strong>Probably the main advantage of a SIM Only plan is the flexibility it offers. You are often not tied into a long contract and are free to go up and down the tariffs as you so wish. So if you want the £10 tariff one month, and the £20 tariff the next month, then this is not a problem at all. You also have flexibility in the sense that you can cancel at anytime with monthly rolling deals, and move to another network. This is a good idea if the other network is offering a better deal. You are not tied in!</p>
<p><strong>Easy </strong>- There&#8217;s no hassle with SIM Only deals. Just pop your sim card into your existing mobile phone and your ready to go. It&#8217;s easy to keep the same number too. It also saves you the hassle of moving everything to a new phone, so if you like the handset you have, then why change it?</p>
<p><strong>Choice </strong>- a quick look at our comparison site will show you just how much choice you have! The main networks are all offering SIM Only deals because they know how popular they are. There are deals for all budgets and all types of users. Compare prices and make sure you get a good deal. With so much choice you are bound to find a contract which is suitable for your needs and is affordable too!</p>
<p><strong>Bad Credit Ok &#8211; </strong>SIM only tariffs are suitable for people with bad credit. Since no handset is provided and they are normally only 30 day contracts, networks are much more likely to accept your application. If you have been refused a mobile phone contract, then it&#8217;s recommended you apply for a SIM Only plan. They are also great for building your credit rating.</p>
