Default Nokia N95, LG viewty or sony W910i

Which one would people recomend? Contract is up and its time to re-new but not sure which to go for. And as a nice little bonus they are giving me a PSP lite too, how kind

Thanks for any input

Danny

w910i is cracking phone as long as you don't want good pictures! but wait a while for the new n95 8gb supposed to be a lot better than the current version which has a chequered reliability

i wud go for the sony because its not touch screen or nokia. my mate has a n95 8gb one, the black one. they have sent it back more than once already after havin for no more than a few months. it keeps freezing. everyone i have spoken to that has a touch screen phone has regretted it, so thats why i'd go for the sony. but if i had the choice of any phone, although this particular one is quite big, i'd choose the new samsung g800

hope this helps

touch screen phones have been around for ages in PDA guise without any major issues.

why not go for a Microsoft based Smartphone?
loads more bells & whistles han a regular phone & different from what most of your buddys will have

everyone who's seen my Touch has loved it, even iphone users!

have a good nose around the reviews etc in this site -

http://www.coolsmartphone.com/

there might be something there that takes your fancy

oh, nearly forgot!
these phones are aavilable on all the major networks they just don't often advertise them, you have to ask for them

What about the SE K850? or are they the only options you have been given?

The K850 is the best phone out, good camera(beats samsung, lg) isn't slow( like nokia's N range) battery is good too

I've got a W950i (the one with the touch screen and the keys) and I really enjoy using it. I'd suggest looking at the HTC Touch Dual, it's the same concept only better executed than mine.

everyone that i know that has used the iPod touch hates it for the touch screen and for its size.
ive been on review sites recently and the k850 is said to be awful because of its touch sensitive buttons. they dont de-activate during a call so you have to hold the phone a metre away from your head when your speakin to some1.

ive found that the most helpful review site is this one. the viewty seems to get a good write up and is a great looking phone.

My only concern Danny is I suspect you text a lot? My housemate has a Prada and it's a right faff to text on, no where near as quick and easy as normal buttons.

Does look pretty though!

Had it for a day now, and must say it is pretty impressive. Not really had to many issues with the texting, agreed it was a bit wired to start with but now its ok, just hav to be careful when the fingers go on the keyboard

I have 14 days to play so ill keep you all updated lol
