> Need Help Can't Decide Which Phone to Buy
Bookmark topic
Guys I need help can't decide which phone to buy these are my choices right now.
Sony Ericsson W580, S500, S700(i know very old but this is the cheapsest), T650, K770.
Samsung G600(it's great value)the only thing i don't like about is that i can't use mp3 for message tone but i 'am not 100% percent sure about this.
The prices of the phone where i live is around US$200 to US$250 the Samsung G600 being the most expensive Sony Ericsson S500 being the cheapest except for Sony Ericsson S700 its around US$160.
Don't know any good phones from Motorola so if you know any just add them.
I already tried Sony Ericsson K810i its ok but didn't like it that much.
Forgot to add i need it to have a bit of a strong signal and is there anyway to make the Sony Ericsson S700 have unlimited Inbox.
Sorry forgot i dont really care about WIFI or GPS i really would want a good camera but my 1st choice would be MP3 player that sound great then of course Camera that is good and i would really like to have a great signal.

What features/functions were you after? do you need good mp3 player, good camera, GPS and etc
Hmmm.. motorola? maybe RAZR 2s were nice addition as well
btw, i have tried G600 although it looks odd compared to it's brother G800 i came to like it's improved interface

phone feels very solid and compact, camera was nice, so does the display(as expected from Samsung)

You have'nt mentioned what you require from your phone, cam, music? a good phone?
From Motorola I recommend the Motorola ROKR E6 or best wait for a few weeks when the ROKR E8 will launch, really good for music but I'm not sure on the price. The E6, its a decent all round performer, bad camera though, should retail at about 200-220USD.
I would'nt touch the W580 due to the keypad problems and such. If not for the ROKR E6 i'd buy the SE T650, but if you did'nt like the K810 dont know if you'd like theT650, similar UI.
Maybe you can also look at the Nokia 6500 Slide as well, well built and good all rounder.

No comment on the Samsung or Moto's - not really interested.
W580 is better than S500 IMO due to

player and more reliable keypad.
T650 is SO MUCH BETTER LOOKING than K770 that the latter may as well be a Nokia!
Of those listed I'd definately go for the T650 but make sure you check out the K630i/V640i before you spend your cash, it's a Giant Killer for sure.

@aksd
I don't hate K810 UI infact i really like the Sony Ericsson UI's the phone looks a bit boring but the phone it self is great.
Motorola ROKR E8 looks great but i think price will be too high.

Then stick with either the T650 or the Nokia 6500 slide, cant go wrong with either. Both are similarly priced.

Since you mentioned that you need good camera and mp3 player, the options imo are narrowed on K770/T650 and G600 - the three had the best cameras (resolution and function wise) i would like to include S700 but since it's limitation to 128Mb support(not to mention MS Duos were old and hard to find) and a rather old and underpowered music player just kills the interest of a music lover.
G600 vs K770 vs T650 (based on my experiences):
Camera: G600 has a well developed camera UI, K770 and T650 cam UI were the same, same goes to the samsung camera module installed in it, quality wise they are also the same. G600's stand here is pretty ahead, due to it's 5mpix resolution and VGA video recording so i'll give G600 the +
Music Player: G600's media player is pretty decent as the UI somewhat resembles A200's media player 3, based on my experiences G600 media player is just a little better than K770/T650's.
General UI: G600 has improved it's UI, although some eyecandys weren't touched that much. animations aren't as smooth as SE's. themes? can't say that much. all in all T650/K770 wins here. not mention the very high customizability of the UI thanks to modders
Build quality: both the three were great, but i find T650 much more solid
Battery: with the powerhungry 16m screen, relatively lower capacity battery Both SE's won here my friend's K770 lasts at least 2-3 days with intensive usage(he always use the camera and mp3 player)
Now, at the end of the day the choice is still yours dude, all phones were good, just look for the one that fits you well, good luck on your next phone!

Thanks for the help guy's i'll wait to more weeks before my final decision because the Motorola ROKR E8 is very tempting and looks really cool if it's in my price i just might get it.
