1. Brand: Any brand that fits, with the exception of those China ones...

2. Budget: 1st or 2nd hand, maxing out at about RM1.2k, if needed.

3. Specs: I'm not too worried about camera quality, more importantly is Music Reproduction, not too much lag, ample storage space, say 4GB, and decent battery life. 3G is not a requirement.


4. Type/Size: Candybar or Flip, nothing huge XD


Thanks in advance!

P/S; was looking at Motorola E8 or Samsung F400

Just go here:
http://forum.lowyat.net/HandphonesandRelatedAccessories

Some seller post the latest updated price list. Some you need to PM them.

But I think AP set is now RM1100+ while ori is an extra RM300.

Some sellers didn't update their prices so you should PM them to ask.

Maybe this seller is better:

am in UK now, having to decide between

N95 8GB for 25pounds per mth contract - 700 mins, unlimited text
Iphone 8gb (original) 25 pounds per mth contract - same as above
Iphone 3g 8gb 35 pounds per mth contract - 700 mins, unlimited internet

which should i go for ? thanks guys!

Other questions::
1)how does the batt life between the n95 8gb and iphone 3g compare ?
2)I hear the n95 8gb can function like a modem (like most phones) enabling hspda to your laptop, is this true ? And it seems the iphone does not have it tho it doesn't need to as it can browse very nicely on its own..

thanks again!

What determines the speed of my surfing experience and does Omnia provide high speed surfing?

Not considering external factors like wireless connection/traffics, just the inbuilt features.

Sony Ericsson p1?
GRexer
Recommend me a simple phone(preferably Nokia if possible) that could do the following:

- Receive and make calls
- Use phonebook from SIM card
- SMS memory on phone and will autosave sent messages
- Easy to type keypad
- As small and slim as possible (using as 3rd phone, my first phone is a E61, secondary phone is a 6630, so don't want the third phone to be too bulky)
- Long battery life
- Fast interface
- Budget, should be RM500 or less
- BlueTooth(optional)

Not needed in the phone if possible:
- Camera
- Colour Screen
BigSaver
try nokia 1200 la..cheaper,long life batt,fast interface,nice n comfort keypad..
GRexer
Hm... having experienced the Nokia 1208, i find it somewhat hard to press on the keypad, which I believe the Nokia 1200 should be about the same

I had great experience with the Nokia 1600 except it's screen is a bit small, and also the fact it's price is still like RM150 is a bit ridiculous since the newer 1208 can be had for around RM100.

Checked on Nokia's site and it seems that the Nokia 1508/1508i fits my usage but it's not yet in Malaysia i suppose.
