Hello Bridawg

All handsets purchased from the "contract" and "pay as you go" sections of the Phones4u website would be locked to the network you purchase them on.

All handsets may come branded as we cannot guarantee an unbranded handset.

I hope this helps

Great question JohnA

HTC have decided to move to the new Micro sim standard. So all new HTC phones starting with the "One" series will use microsims from now on.

I hope this helps

Hello ellie1234

Internet use on a phone is a bit different to that on a normal computer, phones don't use anywhere near as much data as computers do, so the internet allowances go much further.

Internet use doesn't work on the amount of time you spend on the internet, it works on what you actually do while your on the internet. for eg, 1GB of data is approximately 600 web pages per day every day. that's a massive 18,000 web pages every single month for you to go on.

People generally worry that using facebook or twitter alot will make them go over their allowances. but facebook and twitter use very small fractions of data so have only a very small impact on your allowances.

It is true however that services like youtube and bbc iplayer would use more data. but even so, 1GB is enough for even a super heavy user. do also bear in mind that when you are using WiFi at home or a friends house etc, that it would not use your data allowance. so most people use much much less then they think they will.

I hope this helps

Great question skiwi187

Battery life is of great concern to people nowadays. as the more powerful our phones become, the more juice they use.

Gone are the days of the Nokia 3310 where a single charge would last a week, today's phones are not just like computers, they are computers, and very powerful ones at that. with that in mind you can expect to charge any new super phone every day. A laptop battery lasts around 2 hours, a phone battery lasts a day. that's pretty good going. the question really, is, will it last a full day.

Yes, it should. having a quad core processor means its actually much lighter on its battery than a single core. if you find that you are having battery difficulties there are a few things you can do.

Turn your brightness down. The screen is by far and away the biggest power drain. so turning your brightness down will make the battery last much longer.

Turn off WiFi and auto sync when you don't need them.
your super phone will do lots of cool stuff in the background to make sure you have all the information you want and need at your fingertips. but this of course uses power. Turn any services you don't need or use much off. that will save on wasted battery for sure.

Don't panic, when your battery has 50% left, its easy to get flustered and start to doubt if it will last. but 50% is half battery. so you still have plenty of juice left.

As its a septate product that we dont sell we couldnt give you an answer. You would be best asking Beats directly.

Hello Susan

On both the o2 "On and On" and the T-mobile "Full Monty" tariff deals you get truly unlimited mins. There are no fair use polices for the mins and texts on these packages.

Additionally the data use on the On and On tariff is 1GB and the T-mobile Full Monty is unlimited data.

No sorry, HTC have recently announced that they will no longer be shipping Beats earphones in the box. However it will come with an excellent pair of HTC earphones.

Hi Beks, all the allowances shown on our website are monthly allowances (i.e. what you get each month) unless it specifically says otherwise.

All the handsets we sell on-line are brand new, by law we would have to specifically tell you otherwise.

Hi Adam,
Bill credits reduce the cost of the tariff and the reduction is already included in the line rental shown. For example:
The line rental may show £28.50 with a £7.50 bill credit. This means that the tariff should be £36 a month but you only pay £28.50. These are automatically applied to your bill each month.
