    My phones on 0 2...

    August 1998,Nokia 5110 seemed so cool at the time but it was crap
    September 2000, Siemens M 35i, still getting use by a mate of mine, what a workhorse
    Hallow'een 2001, Nokia 6210, biggest piece of **** ever, had it in with 7 faults at the one go and a leaky screen after 5 weeks. it put me off Nokia for life.
    July 2002, Siemens S 45, a great workhorse, only died last year
    April 2003, Siemens S 55, well 2 of them after some skanger nicked two handsets on me, a lovely phone to use if a tad rickety, most unlike Siemens. Awesome looker and great audio on it, speaker was mega loud!
    Jan 2005, Siemens S 65. Best phone ever, such a Dote to use and so solid and sleek looking. Will only replae it for the S 75!!! And it runs on the same charger the C 62 runs on, literally the same one!

    Meteor

    2003, Siemens M 50, great workhorse that looked like a Tampax Box
    2004, Siemens C 62, cool screen but I just used it for calls.
    2004, Siemens SL 55. Can't believe it was €359 when I got the S 55, Meteor upgraded me for nowt!! Looks hot but it's very unreliable. Still, it's a good phone to hide so it's handy for security, and I love the slide opening.

    mitsubishi trium- never worked :(
    nokia 5110- i had two of these bricks one was even robbed and then returned to me
    nokia 3310- good phone but the battery was very dodgy
    motorola v300- my lovely new phone, the only one that ever worked and was then stolen by some git on the bus (out of my hand!!! :( )

    apparently i don't have the best of luck with phones

    While I like some features of the T68i, other things I preferred about the M35i (cheap battery replacements, no screensaver to hide the fact I've received a call / text!)

    They get so boring. I can't stand using same phone for even that long. Always changing....although I'm using a rather old 7650 at the moment...but I love this phone!


    Great phone had a few of these.Great camera better than some today.
    Imagine it was released the same time as the Gd87 and gx10.So many features only draw back was memory ohh well....


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 7,469 ✭✭✭Pythia


    Presuming you guys aren't all super rich, where do you get the money to buy 20 or 30 odd phones?
    Even over 5 years, it's still an awful lot!

  • Closed Accounts Posts: 1,255 ✭✭✭TCamen


    1 - Nokia 5110 ('98-'99) First phone. It served me well I guess!
    2 - Nokia 7110 ('99-'02) Great phone.
    3 - Sony CMD-Z5 ('00-'02) Nice little phone. Alternated with 7110.
    4 - Nokia 7210 ('02-'04) First colour screen phone. It was fine, can't complain.
    5 - Nokia 7200 ('04-'05) First clamshell - screen was too small, but fine phone.
    6 - Nokia 6020 (2 months hehe) Hideous plastic, cheap phone - crashed a lot.
    7 - Motorola V975 (current) Happy enough so far, though the battery life isn't the best.

    I still have all my phones - don't like to throw them away, cos I can still use 'em, they all work. :)

  • Closed Accounts Posts: 2,669 ✭✭✭mukki

  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 11,264 ✭✭✭✭jester77


    wow, some have had so many phones... I generally only change once a year.

    Panasonic GD - Small at the time and you could turn on vibra with a switch on the side, got this when I joined Digifone in '98
    Nokia 6110 - Came with snake, think it was the first phone with it
    Nokia 3210 - No antenna, first Nokia without one :-)
    Nokia 8850 - Looked sweet but was poor build, went through 3 of these
    Ericsson T68 - First colour phone, still my fave!
    SE T630 - Sweet little phone!
    Moto V600 - Piece of Junk, worse phone ever, never touching a Moto again, looks ok but the UI is utter s***...

    Currently using the T630 while I think about my next one. Can't decide whether to get the S100/JAM or a k750/w800. Although I might just wait for the new Qtek 8310 as it has built in wi-fi!


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,120 ✭✭✭wheresmybeaver


    Siemens M35 - excellent first phone - virtually indestructable
    Nokia 8210 - a HandMeDown - feckin great coz it was so small
    Ericsson T20i - crap. No predictive text...
    Nokia 8310 - great phone for texting, great battery, small..
    Sony Ericsson T610 - classic. Nice display.
    Sony Ericsson K700 - crap. Battery life of a matter of hours towards the end.
    Sony Ericsson K750 - so far so good, much better battery life!

    Sony all the way now!

    Nokia 3210 (probably the most sturdy phone I've ever had and it still works)
    Nokia 3330 (grand phone, not-so-grand battery)
    Nokia 3510 (OK but I stupidly got the monochrome screen)
    Sagem MyV65 (great screen but annoying trying to text)
    Nokia 3200 (Oh Lord save us, that was a crap phone)
    Sony Ericsson F500i (which I try using atm, despite the disaster that is the wee joystick that doesn't work like it should)


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 17,441 ✭✭✭✭jesus_thats_gre


    I loved the wee joystick on the 7650 and the theme is still the best symbian theme.. cant find it anywhere though :(

  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 3,579 ✭✭✭BopNiblets


    No.
    Why would I want to swap for an inferior phone?
    K750i > 6230i

    Besides, I got mine cheap (~€306, compared to €420 here) in Bangkok, if you're ever passing through, you can get one! :p

    Speaking of SIM card readers, can you just buy a full Smart Card reader, ie one that can read cards like credit cards or Sky cards, basicaly any full size card.

    Full size readers can also read USIM cards as well using an adapter. I am still looking for one for a security program that I am working on.
