hey guys, got a bit of a problem....need a new fone but dont know whether i should invest in a T610 or a 7250i.

Im a big ericsson fan...have owned models such as t28, t68, t68i. At the moment im using a Nokia 7210 which i hate!

T610 is appealing...
- looks good,
- its has bluetooth,
- it has a better screen resoultion than the 7250i, and
- it also has a better poly' ringtoner.....

however...
- t610 only has 2mb of memory compared to 5 mb of the 7250i.
- i have also also heard rumours that T610 camera is not that good
- the T610 is slow through menu's
- it tends to crash now and then!

so im in two minds...
shall i invest in a 7250i or shall i get a T610?
which is a better fone?
which fone would YOU go for and why?

please help me out guys....asap!
cheers

i would like both

the radio and speaker phone is very important to me ....

The t610 screen is better, it has voice dialing , and all in all is a better built phone.

dont forget . 5 mb SHARED ! which means you cant store up to 5 mb all of pix ...

Go for the ericcson, lets not forget , you have experience with them in the past, and experience is important

the choice is still yours. but if i were you, get the teesixten. if just in case there is a need for change, get the 7250i.

Word on the street is that the cameras on both phones does the same resolution. Read the reviews at mobiledia.com to help. That's what pretty much confirmed my decision. I went with the T610 and couldnt be happier.

The fact that you hate your current 7210 is already a BIG warning sign... the 7250 is just a 7210 with a camera.

i am a sony-ericsson user, and have been enjoying it ever since. and jplacson is absolutely correct. but the fact that you are still inclined to purchase nokias from time to time is still actually your own decision. t-610 is ahead of any mid-to-high end nokias in the market these days. but that fact doesn't seem to bother any nokia fan. they just want to own the latest nokia, as a fashion statement, regardless of how poor in feature that new nokia is. so if you are for useful cellphone features- get a T610. if your objective is just to show you have the latest model- that is a nokia fan attitude.

as the other guys said,go for the SE,I had the 7250 for 2 months,everyone said "wow,great phone..",when i took it out of my pocket,used the camera etc.
but the T610 is bringing more interesting comments,build quality,screen colours,metal case etc.
sure the 5mb of mem.was good,but once you set up the phone the fun ends...whilst my T610 just continues to provide me with options such as voice dialling,pairing with bluetooth devices,cool themes(not just colour changes..)etc..etc..beyond the simplistic nokia menus.
Nokia makes good phones,but SE is just more involving,and tech orientated..
(but if you are using ESATO forums,you know this anyway..)

I'm not gonna deside which is better since I never used the Nokia model you meantion.
But I would like to comment some on your bad sides of T610
The camera...well theres a thread here with pics taken from T610camera its not comparable with a digital camera but it's not
suppose to be either for a phone I think its ok.
But if I where you I would considder one thing if camera pictures are
a feature you gonna use alot how do you gonna transfer them to
the computer with T610 you can use (bluetooth) and IR and email
and MMS to transfer them the first two is free I heard with Nokia you only have the MMS option (often expensive) I'm not sure of the Nokia model you meantioned though but think you should check it up.

Slow menus... On my w26 T610 still with first firmware version its not slow at all in the menues and I can get to the things I want alot faster
then on Nokias where you have to scroll through the menu page after page (again not sure about the nokia model you meantioned they might have changed menu and improved)

Crashes... never had a crash and I have talked alot on the phone, I have waped using gprs alot sent alot of sms and cpl mms played both mophun and java games transfered stuff both using and IR and I have never had a crash/hang so far..perhaps it was something that happened with earlier production phones?? Other ppl could comment on this I guess I can only tell my experiences with my T610.

Good luck with whichever phone you deside to buy
