What mobile phone for yahoo email and Facebook?

htc evo or htc evo 3d.anything running android is a good choice

I've got a blackberry curve 3G and it pretty good- it has email push so all your emails come straight to your mobile. it also comes with a facebook app and the keyboard makes it so much easier to text/type. the only thing i would say is that the OS is a bit dodgy, it can be really slow and freezes a lot on mine and no matter how big a memory card you put in it, you're limited to 250 mb of apps which is poor.

however there are a few other smartphones that also have the qwerty keyboard feature so it might be worth going to a shop and testing a few out, see which is going to suit you best in terms of price/function.

blackberry 9300 3g. just remembered 2 phones made with social networks in mind. HTC CHA CHA and the INQ CLOUD TOUCH you can see them both at www.carphonewarehouse.com and read user/owner reviews.

LG Optimus. Point, touch, text, web, pic, ect. It's what i'm using to answer this question.

I know you said it shouldn't be an iPhone but I use mine for everything you have mentioned and it is perfect for the job. I wouldn't dismiss until you try it.

Go for HTC Salsa.... best facebook mobile...
