Re: Mobile Phones (Monthly) Best Deals ????
Sony Ericssons tend to have very good battery life- high talk time and standby, especially when compared to nokia- where talk time is notoriously low...
SEs also have menu's that load up nice and quickly... none of the "... opening... " business that you get with samsung & nokias.

I've had the W800i for about 9 months and have had no problems with it - My next phone will be another SE.

Re: Mobile Phones (Monthly) Best Deals ????
I agree the SE's are amazing, even the cheaper end of the line are fantastic, i must admit i'm sick of the "opening Folder" screen on my Nokia... So slow. My mates SE is VERY fast.
How did the contract search come along? I'm thinking of ditching my o2 prepay for one...

Yeah, great if you don't mind slow processor speeds which are about 2 words behind when you text.

I dont know about that Russ. My 15 year old daughter (who is used to Nokia and Motorolla) thinks my SE is the dogs knees... Err I mean the bees... forget that one! Anyway, she has a diploma in texting! She does several words a second with one thumb whilst using her other hand to chat to all here MSN conatcs at the same time. If there was the slightest bit of lag whatsoever, she would throw it at my head!

That may have been true of older SEs (like the T68i) which had ARM7 processors but the current ones K700i and onward all have faster ARM926 processors that are better than those in standard (non-Symbian) Nokias.

I recently had a K700i and although it was faster than the T630, it was still pretty slow.

Always known the SE's to be plenty fast enough, must just be a case of how darn fast something is written...

Re: Mobile Phones (Monthly) Best Deals ????
Does anyone here use those Wirefree Headsets for Mobiles??
I wanted to ask a question about it without looking a fool in the shop. lol
Most have buttons on the Boom, Answer & Volume.... Can you answer a call + use the Headset without touching the buttons on Boom? ie... Press Green button on Phone?
Also I take it there is a On/Off switch on Headset to switch it off at night? or is it on 24/7?

Re: Mobile Phones (Monthly) Best Deals ????
Just saw a Nokia 6111 + it has Push to Talk
How much is this on T-Mobile? I cant see prices.... Or how it works? Pay per Month or Minute?

I found the w800i and the w810i have poor low res screens and the menu's seem slow compared to the samsungs (I have a D500). Ive just ordered 2 Nokia 6280's on O2. 50 Xnet mins 200 texts £19 a month each.

It arrived this morning, it seems pretty quick to me. The screen is excellent, much, much better than the Sony!
