Not sure what was “wrong” with O2’s version of the HTC Sensation when the carrier decided to delay the Android 2.3.4 update thus far. I guess they wanted to test it out thoroughly prior to releasing the new software to the general public… Anyway, the good Sensational news is that the update is now ready,…
An O2 sales rep has let slip that the iPhone 5 will be landing on October 21, which lines up quite nicely with earlier rumours we had heard from Best Buy. In addition to that, a Vodafone page temporarily listed 16 GB and 32 GB models in both black and white, which are some details…
Phones 4U has an awesome deal for the HTC Sensation. The phone retailer is offering the Android-powered smartphone for 9.99 GBP with a 21.50 GBP per month plan from O2.

The more realistic figure is 75% and…

O2 UK is running a somewhat interesting promotion for two Sony Ericsson smartphones – Xperia Arc and Neo.
