Please recommend a phone!!

Hay, I decided that id upgrade my Siemens c35i to something more modern .

So, I start to research some of the phones on the market, only to be overwhelmed by the selection :eek: .

Only criteria:
-Bluetooth
-good screen quality
-decent memory (throw in the ones with interchangable memory, for the craic)
-good battery life
-build quality

Phones that I have been interested in include the SE K700, the SE T630 or T610 and the Nokia 6230, so I would like to read some comments from owners of these phones.
But, anything around the above specs and quality will do.

Also, could you recommend any good review sites.

I would be grateful for your honest opinions and experiences.....thanks.

6230 is great! Sorry don't have time to go into detail.

But its the only one that fulfills all of the above criteria.

im a 6600 owner myself, i find it to be an excellent phone and the screen is really sharp and the picture quality is considered good for a phone

SE K700

All the way , I have been through nearly all the phones out there and this is the best so far . It has everything that the P900 has except its smaller ....

Thanks, I am thinking about getting a monthly contract, which telecommunications company would be best to go with?

When I say best I mean the cheapest or the best value for money package.

Would the above phones come free with a monthly contract?

i was caught between the 6230 and k700i, and got the k700i because of its better features. great lil phone. thanks to this tutorial i was watching an episode of father ted on it whilst making dinner earlier!

k700 isn't available on bill yet though right?

The K700 isn't available from any operator here. A friend who works for O2 said it was on their list of "coming soon" phones. He expects it to be at least another month or two before its available.

How much did u buy the 6600 for? Is it a SIM phone? Sorry didnt have enough time to look it up on the web.

Sony Ericssons are the way forward.

KittyKat it was a free upgrade on my uncles contract, he is working constantly on building sites etc, so he needed a phone that could take some abuse so he gave me the 6600 for my birthday

6600 wins hands down if you dont care about the chunkyness.

screen is one of the best out there and pics look fantasticly sharp and clear compared to the cheap common phones like 3200, gx10i etc...

the great thing about this phone is the amount of apps you can get for it. remote control, picture tools etc.... loads of stuff that keep you occupied.

has served me well for the past 5/6 months and ive had no bother with it.

if you cant afford the 6600 or prefer the looksof a 6230, go for the 6230 although imo, the screen is the killer on that, i like a nice big crisp screen.

SE K700i & K500 are at present on test with O2 , The date for release is Sept 5 although this may slip ..
