Mac Posted June 17, 2007 Report Share Posted June 17, 2007 W880 is a fantastic phone Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Durrsaku Posted June 17, 2007 Report Share Posted June 17, 2007 Out of them i think the Samsung U700 is the best but you seem to have missed out the SE K810 which is of course the best of the lot. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Muppetboy Posted June 17, 2007 Report Share Posted June 17, 2007 Not on your list but check out Nokia's 6300, it's a great phone and I did a short review on it in the reviews sections a couple of months back. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

chasdrury Posted June 17, 2007 Report Share Posted June 17, 2007 W880i.. Had one 3 weeks now, brilliant phones. If you use your phone as a camera etc too, probably better with something else, the camera isn't amazing. (2.0MP) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fizzbitt Posted June 17, 2007 Author Report Share Posted June 17, 2007 Mums got a W880i and one thing i dont like is the small buttons.. really annoying. Looks and feels good though.. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sparky Posted June 17, 2007 Report Share Posted June 17, 2007 You soon get over that. My missus hated the idea of the small buttons but you soon find them no problem at all. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Oli Posted June 17, 2007 Report Share Posted June 17, 2007 My advice is, get the phone that is worth the most, sell it on ebay and buy a network free phone. In my experience it is the networks software the slows the phone down and causes problems Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
shao_khan Posted June 17, 2007 Report Share Posted June 17, 2007 Not the W850i. I have one currently and its not a bad phone, but it has lots of points where it could have been better. Closing the phone doesnt terminate a call, doesnt always lock, so still easy to make calls even tho its a slide phone, just little things but they get on your nerves. Also its quite a chunky phone. It isnt bad - but I wouldnt recommend it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Redavant Posted June 17, 2007 Report Share Posted June 17, 2007 I'm in the same dilemma, choice between an n73 or a k810i. Always had nokia, but reviews are pushing me towards the se. Then I found the k850i that is to be released (have a look on the SE site). Decided that's the one I'm going to hold out for. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CarMad Posted June 17, 2007 Report Share Posted June 17, 2007 I've only had Nokias for the past 10+ years but switched to a K810 a few weeks ago and its a cracking phone, I'd highly recommend it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CarMad Posted June 17, 2007 Report Share Posted June 17, 2007 And I have, or rather Nokia didn't have anything that did it for me really. Got it on T-Mobile Web and Walk and use it to surf loads and its damn fast as well. Glad I joined T-mobile when I did as I get 25% off for life. Only thing I have done is switch the 3g off when I'm not using it. I can get a week+ now rather than a few days when its search for the signal. It takes 10 secs to turn it on when I'm surfing if I need the speed so its not a hassle at all. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Durrsaku Posted June 17, 2007 Report Share Posted June 17, 2007 K850 it's the one i am waiting for. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
D1MAC Posted June 17, 2007 Report Share Posted June 17, 2007 What's with the random blue squiggle on the K850 Whatever you do, don't get the Nokia N76, apparently has a battery life equivalent to two shakes of a monkey's tail. If I were you, I would get a beater and wait for either 6120 Classic or Nokia 6500 if you're allergic to Symbian S60 (which is entirely understandable).

fizzbitt Posted June 18, 2007 Author Report Share Posted June 18, 2007 Thanks for the input guys.. much appreciated... That K850 looks the business it must be said.. any word on when its due out? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Paul Posted June 18, 2007 Report Share Posted June 18, 2007 hmmmm Mobile contract has another 4 months to run, and can upgrade in the last 3 months, that might well fall in great for the K850. cheers for the heads up. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
