i'm looking to buy a new mobile and cant decide so I thought I'd enlist your help.

Please let my have your tales of joy and woe.

avoid Sony Ericsson like the plague

I like my O2 X4; MP3 player, video camera, 1.3 megapixel digital camera. Works as a phone as well :) It was reasonable value too, at £200.

Good luck!

I've got a Sagem MY-X5, and it's worked well for 2 years, so i'm happy.

Nokias are best, the battery lasts for ages, I have a Motorola and it drives me mad cause i have to charge it every night

I really like it. Best thing I've carried since the Star Tac. Reliable, forgiving to drops, reasonably good camera, and good sound quality.

Only complaint: RARELY, about every 3-4 months, the battery discharges, but it reads full on the screen. Take out the cord, it dies. Then one has to remove the battery and let it charge up again.

Really? What model? On the 710, I've only charge it every 3 days, and its a normal battery...

it's a V545, a lot of my friends with Motorolas (and Samsungs too) have the same problem. When I had a Nokia I only had to charge it once a week at most

yeah my K700i died and O2 said that they weren't supplying that phone anymore cos of technical problems with the model :eek:

motorola are ok, but this new Nokia 6230 has me converted. no problems, all the usual features, and it just works properly, as it should.

You can't go wrong with Nokia. They make a quality product.

I got a samsung, no camera, no mp3 player, non of the other crap that I don't want to pay for, just a small decent phone for less than 90GBP when it came out. :D

:eek: :(

i don't play it much, but the sheer genious and simplicity of the game is what makes it the best ever :)

PACMAN is the greatest game ever for a phone.

I have had Nokias in the past, but Went to the Sony T68i 720hours battery life thats twice the nokia. but it is so slooowww when you push the buttons.
I've got a Motorola now which has about 300hrs but its not much better on the button response. Time enough to eat one twix bar :p
