looking for a new mobile phone

2007-10-28, 7:33 am

Hi,

I'm looking for a new mobile!

I currently have a Sony CMD-J70, I've owned this for well over 5 years now.
Been a brilliant phone. My only bug bear is that sometimes
when I receive messages, all I can see is the word (data) and not the
message.

However, I'm looking to upgrade, looking for a phone with bluetooth, 3mp
camera, maybe a radio. I'm not too sure what's out there. So many phones!!
I do like the Sony range.

Anyone got any recommendations?

looking to spend up to £100. Pay as you go only.

SE k810i on PAYG from e2save for £99 including £10 O2 call credit (which
you don't have to use, of course).

K800i or K810i.

They're the same phone in a different casing. If you find it a bit big, you
opt for the earlier K750i, but only a 2MP camera, but a good one.

I went from a K750 to a W810 - pretty much the same thing but put the two
next to each other and the screen on the W810 is a lot brighter and more
colourful... not sure how much that is, but if the K800 or K810 are in
budget I'd guess the W810 must be.

About £80 W810i and it has a better music player.

Sony W810i is =A360 now, at http://shop.o2.co.uk/phone/Sony_Ericsson/W810i=
_White
- which seems reasonable given it's tech spec is a few years old now;
whilst the slightly newer K800i is =A3100.

Incidentally, when the J70 displays " <data> ", it's because it's
received a concantenated sms - a protocol it doesn't support. It can
only send/receive txts of 160 chars max.
