1. Brand = Samsung Only
2. Budget = below RM1000
3. Specs = no need decent or high end megapixel camera.
4. Type/Size = must be touch screen, optional: if multi-touch input will be greater..... no need full keyboard, virtual kybd will do.
*
Samsung F480 would be great choice

Thanks. I guess I'll get that (:

Oh one question though, I was informed by a friend that putting a big memory card will make the phone lag.. is this true? If yes will it lag all the time or lag when I just want to access the memory card?
*
5130xm use microSDHC and can support up to 16GB..
so when buying memory card.. just make sure the class of memory card is high
user posted image
user posted image
notice the class of memory card .. 2 and 4

class 4 is faster.. and it more expensive than class 2..

Hello pro's, want to get a new hp for my better half as her phone on it's last legs. She's currently using Nokia 6288.
1. Brand. - No Pref

2. Budget. - 2k or less.

3. Specs. - She's not techie, so user-friendly. Good for texting & calls. Compact & sturdy. Stylish & professional (no pink phones just coz she's a girl, she needs to take it to work!). Good talk time is a plus. Plan is to buy the phone sometime between now & Sept, so any phone to be released soon can also recommend.

4. Type/Size. Slider preferred, if touchscreen bar is alright.

Red is most important specs. Please recommend 2008/09 models only.
*

5800XM is the best


QUOTE(R.Pollo @ Jul 6 2009, 10:51 AM)
How come buying from forumer would be cheaper than those ppl selling outside???
Without have to mention i even consider about the postage fee, also IF the phone
got problem after test out we need to carry it back far away for repairation mah.. shakehead.gif

Or otherwise forumer treat us(stranger/new customer) like his precious VIP???  icon_rolleyes.gif haha

dunt worry..
or.. you can COD with him
