How do we rank our deals?

How do we rank our deals?

With thousands of deals on the market it can be hard work to find the right one. Recombu aims to simplify the process by rating and presenting you with deals in order of best overall value. We consider the whole package, taking into account the following:

  • Contract Length - the shorter the better
  • Averaged Monthly Cost - including other costs such as handset costs
  • Product Mix - amount of minutes, texts and data included
  • Provider Trust - how easy it is to use the provider's site and get your product

As you will have your own personal requirements, you can use the search options tool to help find a phone package specific to your needs. Recombu will always display the best deals at the top of the table for you based on your criteria. If you prefer to sort the deals in a different way e.g. by monthly cost, just click on the column titles to reorder.

Qwerty Phones

Qwerty might sound like a character from a Pixar movie, but it is also the name for the standard layout of a keyboard. Originally designed to combat the jams caused by typewriting at an epic pace, the Qwerty keyboard has become the recognised choice, and many mobile users prefer to have the reliability and familiarity of this as part of their mobile phone.

Qwerty phones remain popular, despite the emergence of the swaggering touchscreen, which might as well be dressed in a purple suit, holding a golden cane. A hard-key pad on a phone offers great responsiveness, and many people find it easier and much more comfortable to use.

Manufacturers build smartphones which are pure hard-key, but there are also combo phones on the market. These bring together the touchscreen and the Qwerty hard-keys, for a harmonious balance of both sides.

If you know you want those reassuring Qwerty hard-keys, then Recombu Mobile can filter the deals to show you phones with this feature. You can then streamline the results by using our other search and compare tools; choose price range, contract allowances and length, network and other features you would like to see in your phone.

You can read about any of the phones shown on Recombu Mobile by checking our reviews. So, if you want to know a little more about a model you’ve seen in your search results, you can rest assured we have taken it apart and eaten the contents, giving us the perfect foundation for a thorough and insightful analysis.
