Best handset for texting

Tc7 · 26-03-2007, 13:22

I dont chat a great deal on my mobile.
Im looking to get a mobile (other than my work phone) in which I will be mainly texting.

Which is the best phone for that?
Maybe a phone that features a qwerty keyboard?

Thanks,
Tc

For network I'd say T-Mobile pay as you go. I only text cos I'm deaf. You get Free evening and weekend texts and 3p texts in the day.

They are currently giving away free SIMs:

As for handset I don't know. My Nokia 6280 has nice size keys that are easy to press.

Had a qwerty keyboard phone for texting and thought it was slower than a standard keypad. Keys were way to small and I was used to tapping away with a normal keypad.

Try any phone you fancy before you buy or you may be stuck with something you hate.

The Sony Ericsson K800i is fairly good for texting (the 810i upgrade looks a nightmare for texting though)

It's also good as a radio, digital camera, voice recorder, task manager, email, timer, bluetooth.

Oh, and it's a telephone as well. Clever that
