What do you think the best phone for around 150 - 200 is?

I'm looking at the SE w810i at the moment, looks good.

I have a Nokia 6234 and I use it for the web and for email. Lovely little phone. Nice features !

I'd steer clear of the flip open phones. bought a nokia 6131 a few months ago and screen goes blank all the time. (Having a difficult time getting metoer to sort it out too - their policy is to repair 3 times before replacing a phone - seems a bit unreasonable seeing that it would be away 10 days for each repair AND they never have any temporary replacements to offer!)

W810i gets my vote hands down. The only downside you could possibly have is that the camera is .only. 2mp but this is fine for most.

The best phone for 150-200? Well it depends what you want to do with it... And on which network you want it, and whether it is prepay or bill pay (bill pay gets you a lot more phone for that money of course).

I always go for Symbian-style phone from Nokia (N-series and E-series) because they are like little computers and you can install programs on them. But I'm really a data user, I use my phone 90% for data (internet, email voice over ip, internet radio, MSN messenger) and 10% for regular phone calls So if you're into that too I would go for such a phone.

On the downside: Symbian phones are VERY power hungry. As a comparison: My Nokia E60 lasts about 1 day on its standard battery BL-5C, even when not doing much on it. My other phone, a very simple Nokia 2310, lasts about 6 days on the exact same battery :P

Good thing I have a charger next to my bed and one at work so I'm never without power

If you prefer Nokias, I would go for the 6300
