Have yourself a mobile Christmas
With more and more products being released each week, it can be hard to keep up with ever-changing offers on the High Street and online. T3.co.uk is here to help. We’ll round up the best deals on the week’s hottest new gadgets – and that doesn’t always mean the lowest prices – as well as hunting out bargains on cool kit already out there.
What’s the deal? Nokia 6500 with free iPod Touch 8Gb
How much? Free with O2 £35/month contract
Where can I get one? Digital Direct
Valid till? While stocks last
If you want the cool of an iPhone without putting all your mobile eggs in one digital basket, take a look at this offer. You get a spanking new Nokia 6500 Classic (that's the candybar version) complete with 2MP cam, a gig of memory and – an Apple-beating extra – 3G connectivity. Plus, if you sign on the line for a decent £35/month, they'll chuck in a brand new, ever-so-strokable iPod Touch for nowt. Lovely.
What’s the deal? Motorla F3 for under a tenner
How much? £7.95 when bought with £10 Virgin airtime
Where can I get one? Carphone Warehouse
Valid till? While stocks last
Hey, it's just a phone. But not a bad one. The electric blue F3 has a cool, stripped down RAZR vibe, but nevertheless comes with polyphonic ringtones (remember them?), vibrating alerts and over eight hours talk time. Our favourite feature is its cutting edge Electrophoretic Display (EPD) – a monochrome screen that's almost as bright and clear to read as paper, even in sunlight.
What’s the deal? Unlocked 8Gb Phone with no contract
How much? £339
Where can I get one? GC PCs
Valid till? While confidence lasts
How brave do you feel? Buying an unlocked iPhone online usually means picking a US handset that's been modded to run on any GSM network. Such devices could theoretically lock themselves again if you attempt to update the software, with the possibility that you could end up with a beautifully designed, touch-sensitive brick. We haven't used this website before, but it seems legit. Proceed with caution.
What’s the deal? Sony Ericsson W880i for a shade over £200
How much? £204
Where can I get one? Pixmania
Valid till? While stock lasts
A superb handset now starting to be available at a realistic price, the W880i is tough and packs lots of useful (rather than esoteric, geeky) features into a sub-10mm shell. It's 3G, has a great 2MP camera, excellent MP3 playback and a 1Gb memory card included in the price. The screen is simply sublime, too.
What’s the deal? LG Chocolate Silver with two thirds off
How much? £49.95 when bought with £10 T-Mobile airtime
Where can I get one? Phones 4 U
Valid till? While stock lasts
Sure it's little 2006, but LG's sultry Chocolate phone still belts out digital tunes like a miniature robotic Justin Timberlake. This silver version has the same heat-sensitive touch-pad of previous handsets, a functional 1.3MP camera and a bright, cartoony 256,000-colour display. Well worth wolfing down before LG decides to upgrade its confectionary range again.
