Hi guys, I don't know much about telephones so I need some help!

1. Brand - Any brand except Motorola (I've used a V3 for 2 years now and I hate it)
2. Budget - Below 1000? Cheaper is better...
3. Specs - I just want a basic telephone, don't need funky stuff like cameras or music or video..... most important things are:

a. Long battery life for standby and talking
b. Slim to fit into clothes without an ugly bulge
c. Not heavy like a brick
d. Programs are not slow and laggy (like my louya Motorola mad.gif)
e. Good call quality, with good speaker phone for conference calls
f. Got Bluetooth
g. Must be able to use in other Asian countries (I travel alot due to work)
h. Won't berkecai if drop on the floor

so basically I just want a simple & functional telephone, not a MP3 player+GPS+Camera+Movie Player+Email+Internet+Laser Gun....

4. Type/Size - Small, slim flip-phone (clamshell) please. nod.gif Ugly is okay, phone is to keep in my pocket not to hang on my chest.

Any feedback would be appreciated! wub.gif I've been looking all over and I can't find a phone to meet my needs. sad.gif

well can consider sonyericsson w880i slim,sexy,3g,good function,comes with 1gb m2 im also using it cool2.gif suitable for female or nokia 6120 pink colour its very nice colour with symbian os 3g with good function as well but if for web browsing and camera nokia 6120 is better compare to w880 because my self i use both before so im clear with the 2 phones functions if u dont mind candbar phones but if u wan flip than consider sonyericsson z610i and blue colour is nice thumbup.gif

Thanks for the input, but the two phones you mentioned are not flip phones so I would think twice. The Sony Ericsson phone is really fat!

I found a website which gave me these names:

Nokia 6600 Fold
Samsung D830
NEC e636
Samsung Z620
Samsung J630
Samsung A746
Samsung A717

but I am not sure which one really suits my needs. Anyone know anything about these phones?
*
i dont really reccoment flip phones cause to me so far no flip phones is good ,tough and wont last long..maybe u can try to consider about slide phones example SE. W910,Samsung I-450 or NK 6500 slide but if for u i will reccoment SE. W910 red colour or SE W890

http://www.gsmarena.com/sony_ericsson_w910-2007.php
http://www.gsmarena.com/sony_ericsson_w890-2172.php

end of the day its all up to u and yr budget tongue.gif

Not I kedekut, I am just afraid that she don't use the function.
She just use to call and sms.
The MP3 and camera also is extra bonus so that her phone is still not so out-dated type.
K800, K810
Both with 3.2 MP camera with autofocus

Well its better for u to go shop see la the nokia 3500 its really not bad think yr mum would be happy wit it cause its a gift and parents look at heart and sincereness only not price or function..but at least yr mum still can sms haha my mum dono how to use sms and camera wat more mp3 really funny she dont use all those functions but she still wan the phone...

1. Brand. - any flip phone
2. Budget. not more than 2k
3. Specs. 3.2 megapixel or above,
4. Type/Size. small and slim is the best  + flip!!!!

BRO yr budget is high but for flip so far i dont think there is any flip phone with 3.2MP unless nokia n93 but its kinda FAT with yr budget 5MP also acn get but if u wan slim can consider SE W890 slim sexy with 3.2MP but no flash only or maybe SE K770 3.2MP auto focus with led flash slimmer version of K800 and K810

Hey guys,

I am a newbie here so I thought I'd seek some advise before I do some hunting so I can narrow my search. I recently got back from the US and plan to be in Malaysia for quite some time. I was using a Blackberry Pearl w/ Internet Package there and got very used to the fact that I got email and Internet on the go. Unfortunately I forgot to unlock my phone before cancelling my line there and they r asking abt RM 400 for reconnection before they can provide me with an unlock code.

  Long story short, I am looking for a phone that has similar internet and email capabilities to my Blackberry. I don't mind Pull email options as well as long as I am able to use Internet/Email when I need it. So here is my request form. Hopefully u experts can provide me with some decent recommendations. Thanks in advance.

1. Brand. : Any brand is fine as long as its reliable
2. Budget. : RM 2000 and below would be great.
3. Specs : Wifi, 3G, HSPDA (any fast network as long as I can surf/check email often)
4. Type/Size. : As long as its not too bulky. I love minimalism but I might be able to sacrifice that for a good phone.

notworthy.gif  notworthy.gif  notworthy.gif

Well u can try go for nokia E61i but no HSDPA only la blackberry connect nothing much different try something new la rather than blackberry..
If maxis the charges would be yr package min is V50 + blackberry bis lite promo RM20 for each MB and if yr using Data pay per use is 1cent/KB or RM99 unlimmited..so consider about it the closet thing to a blakberry and i dont think u wan nokia E90 too bulky and overy yr budget shocking.gif

Hello sifus, looking to upgrade my hp motorola L7.

1. Brand - nokia best but any brand also can
2. Budget - RM1000 or below
3. Specs - 3G or HSDPA. Good PIM. Bluetooth a must. Camera not important.

3. Coloured or not is no big deal
4. High tech bullsh|t isn't in my dictionary now (so ... 3G or no 3G oso nevermind)
