Mobile phones for special occasions

Buying a mobile phone as a gift

Buying gifts for some people can be very difficult. Have you ever thought of buying a mobile phone as a gift?

Mobile phones can be personalised with music, video, photos etc. so a mobile phone as a gift can be a sentimental item.

You will need to buy an unlocked phone that can be used with any network, so that the receiver can use their existing sim card, or you can gift a "pay as you go" phone which could be as a first handset, a replacement, or a spare one.

Some of the occasions you could buy a mobile phone for include:

The cost of a basic handset has come down considerably in recent years and even the most basic of phones will usually have a camera, some storage space and MP3. New SmartPhones on the other hand can cost several hundred pounds, although the features you get will be considerably better.

You can often get a good deal looking on auction sites, but if money is no object and you really want to make a statement you could consider a gold-plated phone - take a look at the Nokia 8800 Arte Gold which will set you back around £1,000.

If you are buying for your partner, or someone very close to you, you may wish to treat them to a contract too. Take a look at our contract phones in our mobile phone shop.
