Hi people. I have the choice of getting either the T100 or Nokia 7210. Which do you think is better and which should I buy and why? Thanks in advance.

T100 is only dual-band, has no GPRS, no MMS, no radio, no Java... In brief, it's naked. Too expensive for what you get, in my mind. It's outdated.
It's main advantage is a 65336 color screen [CORRECTION: It's 4096 colors]... but what do you wanna do with this when the phone doesn't get any MMS, Java??? Well, you only get an expensive color user interface.

7210 has kinda plastic feel, but it looks great and feature wise beats T100 by far. Also you can customize it at will. I've got already 9 games and applications, a load of pics and ringtones.
It's triband, GPRS, MMS, has got a radio, Java...
The screen is 4096 colors, and it's quite enough, at least for me

Though, the choice is yours... And it depends what you use your phone for

I don't own either of those phones nor have i used them but i would have to agree with super g regarding the astonishing lack of features on the T100. This post was posted from a T68i

Incidentally, the T100's screen has only 4096 but what makes it excellent is the fact that it is TFT. Its sounds and its quality are way ahead of the Nokia but it lacks features. The GD87 seems to be an ideal combination! This post was posted from a T300

@super g, the t100 supports 4096 colours, it's the s100 that has 65k colours in addition to gprs, java and better battery capacity. Now, if the choice was between a s100 and a 7210, i would definatly choose the s100. But between t100 and 7210, the 7210 is the best choice by far imo. This post was posted from a Nokia 7650

Raven: yes you're absolutely right It has 4k colors. My mistake.

The decision is even easier then

The 7210 is a better buy for sure. The T100 has almost no features and lousy standbytimes. But it does have a much better screen. It is a TFT screen on the T100 and an STN screen on the Nokia.

But if you want a better phone that is almost like the T100 go for the Panasonic GD87... It is also a much better than Nokia 7210.

As others have said - go for the Nokia. My flatmate bought the Samsung T100 as soon as it was released here... soon realising that it has only basic features and nil connectivity options, except for the ability to customise the ringtones and wallpaper using the supplied cable (which is NOT a data cable!).

2 cents.
