All depends on what you want from your phone really, theres loads to chose from but you need to look at the spec that works for you, i used to swear by nokia but then i wanted a phone that gave me music abilitys cus i couldnt be arsed with an ipod why carry a phone and an ipod when you can have 2 in one lol... but i wasnt bother about a great camera (although most phones have a half decent one anyway nowadays)!

i got a sony ericsson walkman phone think it was the W810i i loved it so much that when my contract ended i went for the upgrade of this one onto W880i and i love that as well, its much much slimmer, proper lightweight and looks great in chrome

has everything i need good battery life great sound the camera is fine ive no grumbles with it at all

never had any cause to complain with it either.....

but again it all depends what you want from a phone

i upgraded to the ericsson 850i a few weeks ago, seems alright, the touchscreen thingy drives me a bit potty from time to time though

like deb said it depends on what you want to do with it, i recently got a samsung g600 because of the 5mp camera,and as i usually end up taking lots of snaps of the kids, it would be great cos i always have it with me. it comes with a 1meg card so it also stores plenty of tunes for the mp3 player too and takes half decent videos too, ive been more than happy with it its my 4th samsung now, and i cant fault them.

except today i had to send it back for the second time, 1st time it was layed next to sink and my young un got water all over it and a couple of keys packed in, but they sent me a new 1, but now the lcd screen has cracked, again prob down to my little un

but they assure me they dont get any others back faulty, so im putting it down to abuse, i had a look at the i-phone when i took mine back today, its great, lookad at map of town and it was just like google earth and also checked you tube on it, and there were about 20 saved clips which were all titled porn

suppose thats what you get for leaving a working phone on display, in a shop that attracts kids

its far too big for my liking though

id recomend if your getting a phone with lots of extras to get insurance, cos i suppose they arent as robust as the basic ones, i didn't take it out and will prob have to pay for my screen repairing

but if you only want to make and recive calls and texts, gor for something basic, and robust.

heres a recent snap taken with my g600, of the formentiond phone wrecker by the fountains at trafford center, pretty good quality for a mobile

Yeah, a nice phone mate. i upgraded when if first came out and since I've flashed the firmware its ironed out the minor niggles that it had.

Camera is outstanding and its got full mp3 sony walkman software. All the features you'll need really. A very nice phone.

And the screen res is nice too!
