Which mobile phone should I get ?

[simon1221]

I will have about £100 to spend on a new phone, as my old one got soaked in the rain yesterday.

What do you recommend?

I like the Sony Ericcson K750i but I am worried that the joystick breaks like all SE, so is there any other phones like that I could get?

Many thanks

The k750i has a really good camera. Do you mean £100 on pay as you go? because i think the k750 costs like £150 on p&g.

They are going on ebay for about £100, yes pay as you go (or 'prepay' as it is sometimes called)

I have a 750i at the moment. Probably about 2 years old by now, and the joystick is just starting to play silly buggers with me (stops working intermittantly).
Great camera, and great options (MP3, radio, notepad, calendar etc). I'd still recommend it even after I've had this minor problem with the joystick. Probably the best phone i've had to date

Its just that the joystick on my K700i went after about a year, and I have friends it has happened to. I think it is a worthwhile upgrade!

The problem is it is a pain in the arse if your in a hurry to do something. But a 2MP camera would be nice. Another thing is that it uses the Memory stick duo cards rather than normal memory stick or SD cards (like the nokia 6230) which are expensive?

Memory sticks aren't expensive at all, what on earth are you talking about!!!!!

Got my k750i second hand, like it but don't like the user interface. It's a bit crap. But 2mp camera makes up for it.

Get the K750i! Awesome phone, or try getting the W800i version, even if its just for the free 1gig mem stick included

I cant afford the W800i, plus its a bit fat

Its the same phone ! Just orange and White as opposed to Black. But i highly reccommend a K750i. And get a Nice 1 gig mem stick. I use my phone as my mp3 player, got excellent sound quality.

Yeah defo,

2 meg cams in both

the only difference is the memory size and colour, and the W800i has better quality sterio Headphones.

Its just a matter of which colour you prefer, both highly reccommended.
