I like the V902 for some reason (not into clam shells) and 2 megapixel isn't to be sniffed at on a phone...

I don't like the look of the other 3.

Acquired a Nokia 6630 the other day, very nice.
It's series 60 and has a megapixel camera (1.3 I think).
Has some interesting looking features on the menu - most of which crash the phone when you access them. The software is flakier than a 99 at the moment.

My little brother's just got the Sagem MyV55, a newer version of the MYV65. The camera is a bit different, the screen is smaller but it looks nicer. There's also the MYV75 which has video but is only available on bill pay.

'Tis naught but a test version. Bits of it think it's a 6600, others that it's a 7610.
It is nice to see things like 'video call' in some of the menus though.

I just got a Samsung E700 last week on sim Free. not many around as far as i can tell. I must say it is by far the best phone i have ever had, I got rid of a Moto V525 for it the camer is sweet as a nut, quality is great, also has a 15 multi shot mode?? why i dunno but who cares, Night shot mode and in built special effects for when you take pictures also, Sketch/Emboss etc...

Sounds on the poly ringers are great as is the External OLED display.

Overall a great new phone. Samsung now on for me..

check out from here http://www.mobile-phones-uk.org.uk/samsung-e700.htm

can anyone recommend a really slick new phone for me? I was looking at the motorola v80 but im not sure if its a little too camp. Im just looking for something that hopefully not a lot of people will have aswell. Would it be worth my while waiting for a few months until the newest 3g phones go on sale?

6630 is only out for testing etc. not for end users - Nokia gave a "Fourth quarter 2004" guide for launch... so you can hold off your search for a bit...

plus x amount of time before you see it available from an operator here. where x can be any amount of time depending on testing, if they wait until offering 3G handset support on the networks.... etc...

Wouldnt pay any attention to that to be honest.. Was playing with that about 18 months ago. Very crap phone by todays standards..

ah yeah i know that..... it just i was on the site in the US and its called a Nokia 6651 ???? over there and its listed in their top 10 of newly released phones ????

and i do agree it does look like a crap phone.... but i was just puzzled why Nokia has released a phone with an aerial...... :rolleyes:

yeah, seen a few of them about at work (6650), and they looked pretty bulky for what they are.

i like the v80 though, and possibly the v3, but the jury's still out on it until it's properly available over here.

i was wondering about the campness of the v80 myself, so i've held off buying one till i can have a play in a shop somewhere first.

got a 3100 at the mo tho, and it's doing me grand for now, although I could do with a cameraphone at this stage.

I just rang Nokia product information in the USA. And i was asking the very helpful guy when was the Nokia 6630 been released.... he said not in the new future anyway, he said i hasn't even gone into production "yet" .... i asked him when will it be available ? ... he said it would be released in europe first (maybe 6 months) !

he also said that at the moment AT & T is the only network in the US that can support this phone and AT & T can only support it in 6 cities in the entire US ? :eek:
