njeo · 29-11-2002, 14:16

I started with an Ericsson that is so old the model number escapes me, needless to say it was a brick.

Got a Nokia 5146 but the screen went on it. Also the speaker was a bit dodgy and sometimes wouldn't ring.

Got another more recent 5146 but the screen was far to dim to be seen properly.

Now got a Nokia 5210 but the screen backlight flickers when it shouldn't.

Not had much luck with Nokia handsets!

Gave that up, then had a Motorola pager for a year or so!

Then went on Orange and have had the following, upgrading after each 12 months:

Mitsubishi MT401
Nok 3210
Nok 3330

And current phone is a Sagem myX5.

No!! I mean,yeh there great lookin fones, no questioning that - but the number of problems with them are immense.

I know 5 people with them - First person managed to let it roll down a hard concrete drive which broke the power button (which i guess is his fault)

2nd's fone still works but continuously switching itself off, esp during txting

3rd fone just died one day for no reason

4th person - left it in a bathroom, the condensation knackedred the keypad thingy.

5th person - the switch off problem again.

So altho they look great, look out for problems.

Sorry if i'm talkin crap, its late and i've been up since 5am.

PhenomenaDevice · 04-12-2002, 09:19

I had a Panasonic G450 (?) for Xmas 98, then moved onto the Nokia 5110. Then bought a 3310, then Motorola V50 - gave that (and the contract) to my Dad as it was hhhoorrriibblllleeeee I now have a 8310 on Vodafone through phones4u until June next year where I can get a free upgrade. Wonder what phones will be out by that time..?

04-12-2002, 09:27

Ericsson T10 (Cellnet)
Ericsson T28 (One-2-One)
Sony J5e (Orange)
Ericsson T68 (Orange)

Yet to try a nokia (the standard nokia ring tone is enough to make me want to barf), or try the Vodafone network...

lister · 04-12-2002, 11:36

I have had a big Alcatel thing, I now have a Siemens C35i

I wish I had my sister's phone a Samsung T100.

Joe K · 04-12-2002, 12:46

Damn! I though I was going to be the only Alcatel owner on the list!

I got an Alcatel Db because my wife was pregnant and it was only £35 and relatively small. Recently, with the old phone's battery packing up, I bought the Alcatel (310?) for £45 odd quid, because they were switching over to the the WAP ones with changeable covers. Me, I don't need WAP, and I prefer the red metallic cover of the 310, as it gives it a Naboo stylee

I know that Nokias are what everyone aspires to, but I think Alcatels have a certain cache now

insomnia · 04-12-2002, 18:16

Some crap name analogue phone, then an ericsson 318, nokia 3210, 7110, 6210, 8850, 6310, 6510.

Graceland · 09-12-2002, 01:30

My first one was a NovAtel TM2, still using an orange nk402
but the screen is starting to fade at times.
Although by today standards it is a brick but it has given
me no trouble at all.
