Deciding on a cell phone. help?

Nokia 5100



Seimens M55



Sony Ericson


Motorola V60i



Siemens A56


Nokia 6340

the 6340 has the same functions as a 3390..which is pretty ghetto. but it just looks nice

flip phone..hmmm. i want a color screen phone...BOO! this sucks these phones are ugly.

the first phone has a radio! ooooohz

and shorerider...fuck image. its a phone to use... i just want the phone to be durable and customer friendly.

^if you want a good customer friendly phone, i'd say nokia, they are very good 'base' model type phones.

i've had good experience w/ nokias.

or look on revscene for a used phone and just hook it up after.

i like the M55... seimens makes good phones. but everyone is buying up that phone now... it's like the 3390 was 2 years ago...

but the M55 does have a lot of nice features. jovi has that phone and i love it. i bought the A56 a while back (and lost it a week later) and it was the worst phone ever. it said it came with mobile internet, but once u buy it there's a paper inside saying it REALLY doesn't... plus it doesn't even have a colour screen. it's actually more expensive than the M55 and you get a hell of a lot more features in the M55...

the motorola v60i is a waste of time. it's basically a 1998 startac with a bit of silver on the casing.

the nokia 5100 is too chunky (although if you drop your phone a lot, it's likely to survive), but it does have some nice features. kinda kiddy looking though...

the sony ericson has that fucking rolling selection ball thing... it's like a fucking N64 joystick... it sucks.

and the nokia 6340 i've never seen before. doesn't look too special...

depends if your going for looks as well
if you dont care that the phone is ugly and just want a good phone then go for the nokias. If you want some looks with it as well as a decent phone then go for the M55 or the v60i. Keep in mind the v60i has a horrible menu etc but is a decent phone. Perosnally id wait bev dont waste ur money on any of those phones.

I own the last one , and use the second one for work.

Both good phones, the siemens has better reception, and is smaller, almost too small (is a little cooler looking too). I like the nokia , because i can throw it around and not worry about it breaking.

Haven't owned either long enough to give a better review than that.

my roommate has the siemens m55, and i wish i did too. my vote goes there.

don't even think about the v60i. they tend to um... break.

i'd think so. my roomy has a red one, and the one up there is white. so unless they go to the trouble to manufacture different colours of phones, they probably have customizable faceplates.
