    I have ZTE Blade but the screen is smashed.

    Looking for a new android phone. Must have capacitive touch-screen, gps & bluetooth. I don't necessarily need a brand name. More than happy with generic brands. What's the cheapest option?

    . What's the cheapest option?

    I'm a bit rusty, but i think the blade is still the best budget Android phone around?

    Get the screen replaced?

    I had a look at the Europa and wasn't that impressed. Ill take a look at the vodafone & tmobile phones.

    Ill be in America next week if that gives me widers options. Has anyone used an unbranded chinese one before?

    Have a look at the Samsung Galaxy Ace, it may be a bit dare at 270e on Three. You could also look on Adverts for a cheap phone. You could easily get a HTC Desire for 250 on there.

    Yeah, i think so, a used galaxy s would be a better buy than an Ace IMO
