Help with choosing a phone please

**Cookster** · 17th December 2003

Hi all,

In your opinions what would be the best phone to buy for around �200. Would like it to have a decent camera and games if possible. I'd be willing to spend a little bit more (up to �250) if it meant getting a much better phone.

Cheers in advance.

I seen the 7250i on PAYG for 200 now for X-Mas, IMHO its the best phone Ive had, Games are really good, camera quality is excellent for its size, and even better once uploaded to PC, I have never strayed away from Nokias, so Im sure people will have things to say about other phone, the Motorolla V525 Look quite cool as well!

With a Nokia though, is it worth spending a bit more dosh to get the 6600 as I've heard that's the best at the moment?

Sharp GX10i on PAYG for �250 from vodaphone shop or around �199.00 on ebay *new*
Samsung V200 on ebay from around �230.00 *new*
Wait til after xmas and you'll probably get the Motorola V525 on PAYG for around �180.00 in the shops.
Motorola V series will not be despatched b4 xmas due to probs with factory producing cameras.

nec e606.........only if u on 3 i love it though i think i am gonna get slated..........otherwise get an 8850, or gd87 not bad, 7250i is too common

I fancy the Samsung E700 or the Nokia 6600 myself. Waiting 'til after xmas tho as prices may drop slightly. Also Samsung are bringing out a E710(?) which will have built in flash for the camera.

Best advice is probably go into carphonewarehouse etc and try some out for yourself then buy off the net which will prob be cheaper.

Cheers for the replies.

I think I'll definitely wait 'til after Christmas as from the sound of it I'll save a bit of money. There's quite a few recommendations there so I'll pop into a phone shop to check them all out, and see which one I like best.

I assume the Nokia 6600 is the best camera phone for games. Is this correct?
