1293904 2012-08-10 06:37:00 I am looking to get a new phone to replace my Nokia 1280. Looking to spend $150-250 on a phone. Must have a touch screen. Don't want Android if I can avoid it.

Any suggestions as to what should get?

Have heard that Android phones can be hacked into and steal personal details.

1293907 2012-08-10 06:55:00 Oh, they are pretty safe. And, for most budget touchscreens, they will be android. Wouldn't be too worried about the security. Nick G (16709)

1293910 2012-08-10 07:10:00 Vodafone Smart II! Great budget phone for $179. I've played with one briefly and it was quite good.

And got editors choice in PCWorld's budget smartphone roundup.

1293911 2012-08-10 07:49:00 Yes, vodafone smart II would take my pick as well. Nick G (16709)
1293912 2012-08-10 07:51:00 revues on the vodafone site are not good though gary67 (56)
1293913 2012-08-10 08:19:00 revues on the vodafone site are not good though
But is the due to the phone, or because the bought budget and expected the experience of a iphone though?
