What Phone Should I Upgrade To On Three?

You’re with Three UK. You’re a valued customer. You pay your bills on time and you like running the latest tech. But what phone is the best option for your upgrade in 2024? 

As always, it depends – it depends if you like Android or iOS. And it also depends on how much you want to spend. 

The price difference between entry-level, base model phones, flagships, and foldable phones is MASSIVE. 

Case in point: the iPhone 15 will set you back £799, while Samsung and Google’s new foldable phones will but a larger dent in your finances with prices starting FROM £1599… 

Whatever you’re looking for – be it a budget phone, a flagship or just a standard smartphone – this guide has got you covered. 

Let’s do this…

The Best Phones To Get On Contract With Three Right Now

Top iPhone Models on Three

Notable Alternatives

If you want a larger iPhone model (that also has a massive battery) but you don’t want to pay Pro prices, check out the iPhone 15 Plus. 

Apple’s Plus models are basically just bigger versions of the base model, so it’s the iPhone 15 just with a larger, 6.8in display and a bigger battery. 

It is more expensive than the base model iPhone 15 but it is A LOT cheaper than the Pro and Pro Max models.

Best Samsung Phones on Three

Notable Alternatives

If you’re on a stricter budget (we get it; times are tough right now), go with the base model Samsung Galaxy S24.

It has literally everything you need – awesome battery life, an insane display, and a brilliant camera – inside a super-compact package. 

Want something larger? Go with the Galaxy S24 Plus; think of it as the Galaxy S24, just bigger and with a better camera (and slightly higher price tag). 

With budget options, the Galaxy A55 is impossible to beat right now.

It’s not packing the same level of spec as the Galaxy S24 but it’s a perfect option for anyone that just wants a great phone that does all the basics really well. 

My advice? If you’re looking to save cash without scrimping on performance and features, go with the Galaxy S23 FE – it’s a stripped down version of Samsung’s 2023 flagship phone.

It looks great, it packs in loads of tech, and it costs the same as the Galaxy A55 (but it’s quite a bit better).
