My 17 year old needs a new phone - her LG shine turns off randomly amongst other problems. She is happy to try anything, as long as its not worse than hers now. she is on t mobile.
any suggestions welcome - have been looking at reviews and loads of websites but after a while it gets very confusing!

depends whether she has/wants a ipod etc

you can end up duplicating facilities they already have elsewhere, in the phone - ie music player etc

but my son got a tocco lite, which is nice and friendly, reasonable camera, but wont let him install downloaded software.

i have a shine, but i fancy getting a nokia 5300/5800 is it? when it comes down to £100 anyway their cheapest touch screen phone - i think it will let me put stuff on it, because it uses symbian os. The comes with music ones give you free downloads for a period

I have actually stopped using the shine tbh, because it wont work with my blue tooth speakers/headset which is a pain

good time now to buy I think - there seem to be a lot of pretty phones around.

I have seen several nice looking phones, but reading the reviews there always seems to be a common fault, have been done that road before but ignored the reviews and wished I hadn't.
tocco lite does look nice.

I had a shine, and has been my favourite phone I have ever had, i've had viewty in between and went back to the shine i loved it that much.
On thursday, I got the LG Crystal though, as my shine was getting old and scratched. And if your daughter loves the shine then I think she will also love the crystal (if she likes touch screens anyway) as I love it, it is very similar to the shine just obviously improved slightly and graphics and stuff. And my favourite thing on it is the transparent keyboard I love it. Great phone in my oppinion
