New Phones

This week we updated our phones with the HTC Sensation XL; read a review here and consider our favourite new Vodafone plan related to it - the HTC Sensation XL on a $29/month contract with only an additional $5/month for the phone.

Updated Plans

In fact, the new Vodafone plans are great for those wanting to snatch up a smartphone for cheap prices, as they're offering both the HTC Sensation XL and the Samsung Galaxy S II on incredible prices.

Both phones are available on $29/month contracts for only an extra $5/month, or alternatively, for the mid-level user, a $49/month contract with no additional charge for the phone. They're great deals - snap them up now!

We applauded Telstra on their one million new customers, and wondered whether or not this should be incentive to switch to Telstra plans.

And we marvelled at Vodafone's new LG Prada 3.0. So shiny!
