Time for a change. My current phone is probably out of the ark. I can get a new phone through dh's company scheme that seems to be an excellent deal. But what should I choose?

Suggestions please!

Seems as if Samsungs have the edge.

Does anyone actually use all the extras out of interest?

agree with those who have the Motorola V3 Razr -- it's definitely the coolest phone to have

ChampsOnIce · 30/12/2005 15:44

love nokia's.

for me, bluetooth, camera, video player/recorder, calculator, etc a must. mp3 player or music player a nice bonus.

i also like to have customisable(bad sp) themes, screen changer, thumbnails(for callers) and facias.

razr v3

Micku5 · 30/12/2005 15:51

If anyone is interested I am selling my Motorola razr V3. I bought it in March but when we moved I had to change networks (no reception with old network) so I got a new phone.

I was going to put it on ebay but if anyone is interested please CAT me. It has the charger, headphone set and handbook.

I have a silver razr and gather they now come in pink, which I quite fancy!

micku5 how much are u after?

cathyspam · 01/01/2006 18:32

sharp GX25 is nice to look at and it takes the best quality pictures i have seen from a camera phone - ideal for snapshots of the little 'uns!

can't believe i had my first phone in 1994, and it was big and heavy, i have had various phones since, but my fav is still my sony ericsson p910i i love it cos it is a phone a camera, PDA, sat nav, MP3, bluetooth internet, it has a tiny flip keyboard and a stylus, and i love it as can do my banking on it write word docs on it ect, but then i love gadgets anyway.

I've had a Motorola V3 in silver for the past 10 months and have just (about 5 minutes ago) ordered a very girly pink V3 and pink bluetooth headset.

It's great as it fits in the back pocket of my jeans - it's so slim. Some good network offers on as well through carphone warehouse.

dh is quite worried that I'm going too girly

RTKangaSantaMummy · 01/01/2006 19:05

SONY ERICSSON K750i is deffo brill

It has a DB camera with 2 mega pixels and I love it

OnZephyrstDayofXmas, I have just replied to your CAT.

Nightynight · 02/01/2006 13:53

well Ive got a samsung from my work at the moments and IT SUCKS!
it is not at all intuitive, you have to press about 10 buttons to set the alarm and the battery goes flat much too fast due to the stupid small screen on the front which cannot be stopped from producing enough light to double as a torch.

Siemens/Benq is a much underrated brand, imo (I have worked on them) They are really intuitively designed and easy to use.
