Default HTC Wildfire?

I'm due a mobile phone upgrade, i'm with 3 and want to stay with them, been looking today and there's some good deals on HTC Wildfires, has anyone on here got one/had one?

What are they like?

Cheers, Karl

I've got a Sony Ericsson C510 which has seen better days lol.

I need to stay with 3 really cos of the unlimited 3 to 3 minutes, they come in very handy.

Not massively into mobile phones tbh, hence this thread, just need something i can call and text with (obviously), but also want something decent for internet access, also with a decent camera. Quite like the look of these though as they seem to tick all the boxes but aren't as big as an iphone etc.

Just wondered wether they were reliable etc, dont want to be having to have it repaired every 2 minutes, my current phone has been repaired twice now.

Cheers, Karl

Im with 3 aswell, have been for about 2-3 years.

Your lucky if your due an upgrade now as there seems to be some decent phones on offer now, where as about 5months or so ago all they had was old rubbish nobody wants.

The wildfire will be spot on for you, plus it has most of the toys that its older more expensive brother has(desire). So not only will it tick all of your boxes it will also do alot more stuff like you can download different apps for different things.

As the guy says above, you can find reviews on youtube to watch which will show the phones working and how they operate etc and if your wondering what i mean by apps you will see in the videos
