I'm planning on getting a new mobile, or what some of you yankies call a "cellphone". So, I'm wondering what phones you EOFFers have, and the cool factor emitting from 'em! Gimme all your opinions and feedback on your phones, oh an BTW, I'm thinking of getting: W580i :cool:
i have the 2-year old samsung e760
my contract is almost finished.. just 2 more months
I got the only phone my company would give me with a two year contract. I just want to be able to make calls. Though the camera is nice for taking pictures of the crazy stuff I see every day living downtown. :P
K750i represent!
Decent camera and songs sound pretty good aswell :hat:
I have this:

It is love. I feel like I should name it.
N95 is an overall winner. The SatNav is a useful feature installed in it.
It's some kind of Sony Ericsson walkman phone.. I can't remember what it's called to save my life, though..
I have an iPhone! :quote:

lol, my bro's got that phone. I recommend it. :)Quote:

I never used to know anything about phones but this year I worked for Marsh (O2 Insurance) and learnt about all the phones.
Wow, you should see the Nokia 7500 Prism:
http://www.mobile-phones-uk.org.uk/i...a7500prism.gif
I didn't like that one.
Anyway, I have a piece of crap called Nokia 6070. It's not good, i only bought it because i broke my previous phone a year ago and needed a new, but I was broke. I've got it in silver, though you can't select that colour on the web site.
While the one I want now is by no means top of the line, it's got all the features that I need in a phone, and it looks good. It's the Nokia 6233. It looks a *bit* similar, but it's infinitely much better. I will also be getting it in black.
It's a... um. Sprint. Qualcomm 3G CDMA? In pink. :p
I rarely use my cell phone, and when I do it's just for the occasional call, so I have a simpler phone that's over 2 years old now:
Nokia - Nokia 3220 - Phones - Find products
Why does the Nokia product page tell you which operators you may use?
I think certain manufacturers get contracted with carriers for particular phones. There's a lot of phones models that are offered exclusively through certain carriers. Of course there's probably ways around that, just not anything the average Joe would bother with.Quote:

My mom said something about my contract being up this month so maybe I'll get one with a nicer screen. Most phone's bells and whistles don't concern me too much though.
I have a MotoROKR E2, it's pretty cool, it has good sound quality and a great screen.
I have a samsung 645 or something. It's a clamshell with a nice screen but little else. I can't even download midis for ringtones :( or probably anything else! It has very little memory because I have to clear my texts every few days. I couldn't imagine being someone who would have to clear it daily, maybe multiple times. (its like 25 in the inbox and 50 in the outbox)
Samsung D900. Great for camera shots, but the battery stinks. é_è
My phone is a Lobster 575 on the Virgin network. Pay as you go.
I really cannot remember anymore, it's like 4 years old now and I never have credit on it. Ive dropped it so many times (I dropped it today aswell, hah) that it now just turns off whenever it feels like. It doesnt even hold music or record a video, it's THAT old. Oh, it's a Sagem myV65.
Mine has a two colour screen. :)Quote:

Sony Ericsson T105
I have a really old Motorola Razor. I don't like it.
woah that's ancient.Quote:

Though all I ever do is text anyway. The buttons are a nice upraised style and are really nice for "touch-texting". My only complaint is that, being a slider phone, the screen is always exposed and gets dirty.
I have a Samsung PM-A840 Sprint phone which is durable. The service works in areas with alot of wires which is very nice. And I have a Motorala Razor. It sucks because Verizon is a horrible company. They break easily as well, but I got mine for free so I don't care.
Mine is a Sony Ericsson K510i. Yes. B)
I have a nice new Razr. I got it as part of a family plan for $3.
Mine was a pretty standard phone. Unfortunatly it came with the amazing ability to break when it got rained on...
So I will be getting a new one soon.
I recently got a new RAZR and hubbie got the Motorola W490...
I have a Motorola Slvr L7, but once it's released for T-Mobile I want to get the Blackberry Pearl 8120. Unlimited Data and 1000 Whenever Minutes for $60 a month is a pretty good deal.
I've got the samsung sync (A707 to be exact :P)
I like it a lot :D although idk if its what you want in a phone...not sure if sat nav is available but it might be
My current phone... I don't even have a clue what it is. It's an LG, but that's all I really know about it. It's reliable though, and can take a major beating.
However, I'm getting a new phone when my contract expires in February (I got my current phone for my 16th birthday), and I wanna get that Samsung one that can open 2 ways, up and down and left and right. The name escapes me. Someone my dad works with was showing it off one day and I fell in love with it. However, I heard that they're super-fragile, so I gotta be careful with it...
I have a chocolate. I don't hate it. But I don't love it.
I have a motorola L6. I can;t waith for my plan to be up so I can get a new phone, but the one I want, someone already has...I'm pissed.
Motorola makes really great phones. Nokia is...ok...I guess.
I -personally- hate sony phones, they look nice, have nice buttons and schemes, but I haven't seen anything good about them. Save the camera, ofcourse.
Yarr...Support my communities economy. Thank you sir =DQuote:

Seriously, such a bad phone, worst one I've had in my life (I've had 3 cell phones prior to this one). Piece of junk.
I want to get a Helio somewhere down the line. Or maybe even an iPhone if they fix all the problems with it.
I'm not particularly fond of Motorolas. Everyone has one and their interfaces are generic. I'm pretty set on a smartphone as my next wireless device. I respect Nokia for supporting a relatively open platform.Quote:

Didn't like the others on offer and I'm certainly not a fan of RAZRs or whatever. I like my phone because what I thought were generally superfluous features (radio, mp3 player, camera, light, etc), I've managed to find uses for. I think I'd buy another Sony Ericsson one because I've liked this one though I see me using this one for a long time before I get a new one (I bought it in March and my previous phone lasted three years or so). Another plus about the phone is that it's on O2 rather than Vodafone who are a really bad network to be on.
A friend of mine has one and she's pretty much the worst person to own a cellphone. It's been dropped out of 3rd story windows, fallen into puddles of mud and it's still working. I think you should be okay.Quote:

I have a clamshell Sony Ericsson. z610i, I believe.
I was more talking about the Blackberry. RIM park is in Waterloo. I'm in Waterloo region. Go Yams!Quote:

Some kind of low-end Motorola. It makes phone calls, text messages, and functions as an alarm clock. At least, that's what I use it for. It does other stuff too. I think I get a new one in April or something.

This is my phone. I know very lame.
How on earth can it be dropped from a 3rd story window?! Was it intentional?Quote:

also, I own an LG Fusic, which looks like: http://www.phonedog.com/r/c/7130-372...75-250x275.jpg
I know, it's a girly looking phone. Luckily I use it as a phone, and not a belt buckle.
