Need to get a new mobile/cell phone...

I want a Nokia 7610 ('cause it looks cool :? ) but it costs too much. These are my options:

Sony Ericsson K500i Sony Ericsson T610 Motorola V220 Motorola V500 Nokia 3510i Nokia 5140 Nokia 6100

Anyone got one or have any experience? I don't need anything too fancy ? just tri-band, Bluetooth, GPRS, etc. I'm thinking the Sony Ericsson T610?

Nokia N-Gage QD Phone

"The Nokia N-Gage QD? game deck is good for more than just gaming; it's a dual-band phone that's reliable and packed to the max with fancy features. Make calls, browse the Web, download Java?-based games and apps, manage your appointments, shake a tailfeather with polyphonic ringing tones, and transfer files wirelessly using Bluetooth technology. But wait, there's more..."

:lol: :lol:

(I actually tried one on a promo; cool on the games, weird as hell when you're talking on a Game Boy :CrackUp: )

Big phones are stupid, no offense to the Ngage now but they are.

Sony Ericsson K700 - best phone I ever had - hands down...

:RockOn:

#297758Post 25 of 48

I have a T610 I do like it, you can put themes on it that totally changer every screen of the phone, not like shitty nokia and samsung, where you just get wallpaper...but yeah that doesnt really matter..i get good reception, and the volume goes pretty loud...ive used the bluetooth and infared, all work good, cool features. The only thing i hate about my T610 is the call listing, after a call/missed or whatever, after bout an hour or so it doesnt tell you the time they called, or the date, or anything, just the #....my old samsung would store all the info, time/date/call duration, other than that its a cool little phone :) the camera is just 'ok...not as good clarity as you would get from a sanyo or samsung...not sure about nokia or motorola...good luck

#297762Post 26 of 48

i had problems with my ericsson too

i usually buy the one that wont break, since i always drop it when im drunk

#297887Post 31 of 48

fuck.

#297966Post 32 of 48

I've got a Sony Ericsson T610

Best phone ever in my opinion. Just fancy enough to be cool yet not too fancy to be geekish

Definately recommend it!!

#297976Post 33 of 48

I had a Samsung before i got my new one and liked it very much, apart from one thing. The camara packed up after 10 months! Ive now got a Sharp GX30, i cant realy comment on it yet as i`ve only had it two weeks but i will say the camera is fucking asome for a phone.

#297983Post 34 of 48

Re: Which phone do I get?

You shouldn't actually need to lay down any cash for a phone, you can practically get every phone for free as long as you sign up too a contract for 12 months!

Dont say you go pay as you, thats just daft, its like renting a house when you might as well be paying a mortgage off!

I just got the nokia 6260 for free on 200mins anytime xnetwork absoulutely free, check out link below:

Plus the girlfiriend got the new nokia 7260 free as well and thats not even out yet!

#298155Post 35 of 48

Nobody has suggested LG, that is hot phone around here, and we all use Verizon, which is awesome in the NY area. Personally I like flip phones, and the camera is a must IMO.

#298186Post 36 of 48

I had an LG and it was great. Had a Samsung and it blew goats. When I went to the store the person said that Samsung spends their energy on gizmos and features rather than the strength of the antenna, etc. Don't know if it's true, but they talked me into a Sanyo and I've certainly noticed a difference. The Samsung was only about 4 months old at the time.

#298195Post 37 of 48

I have an LG right now (the camera phone) and i would burn it if i could.. Don't get LG.. they are the worst phones ever made..
