As I am nearing the end of my contract, I am considering my options.

 

Given the signal with o2 is pretty good my most frequently travelled areas I am leaning towards staying with them.

 

However, deals through o2 are not exactly competitive in terms of price when looking at 3rd party offerings (excluding the refresh part of the deal, not something I am likely to use) and considering total spend.

 

So, my long winded question is this - if I take a contract through a 3rd party, can I still use "fringe benefits" like Priority and o2 Wi-Fi?

 

My contract will still be with o2, just be brought elsewhere...

 

All help welcome!!

The only reason to go Note 4 is if you will use the stylus functions, otherwise it's just like any other latest android, but bigger!

Or if you are shallow like me you go for the size....and colour. (Which can be just as relevant to some folk) wink


I might not make the most of the stylus, but it was defintely useful so I think I would use it at some point.

 

As to size, it was a little big but not uncomfortably so. And the screen was excellent - hence needing the G4 to test as well so I can compare!!

A lot of 3rd party sellers rely on the buyer not remembering to implement their cashback offer. If it's automatic, then fine. If you have to remind yourself to do it every month for however many months it is, and you're not good at remembering those kinds of things, it's the seller who comes out the winner.

Third party sellers count on people not being as diligent as that, even though it's so simple.:smileywink:

the g4 is a nice looking phone, i'm just not sure about the buttons on the back. a chap at work has one and said it was actually quite easy to get used to.

 

i think I'm going to wait until after MWC and see what comes out of the Samsung and LG presentations...
