Yes, but...

With PAYG you can switch phone companies whenever you want. With
contracts there always seems to be a much better deal available the
month after you sign up, sometimes from the same provider. And if
reception proves to be poor in an area where it is important to you,
then you can switch to make the best of what signals are available.

Get a SIM-free phone so no painful or expensive unlocking procedure.
