It depends what you're after.

If you want something that's a phone first, and then bolts on as many extras as will fit, I'd say the SonyEricsson T610.

If you want a PDA that happens to have a built-in mobile, then the SE P800 is the most powerful out there are the moment.

If you want something that's halfway between the two, then the Nokia 3650 is the one to go for.

Spoke to several retailers at length (sad i know! lol) and they say that the best phone on the market at the min is the Nokia 6800... Full QWERTY keypad inside! Marvellous!

Nokia 6800

Meh.

Only a 12-bit screen. Same file transfer problems as the 6100. And where's the Bluetooth? WAP 2.0? The camera?

Don't get me wrong, it's not a bad phone, and I'm sure the keyboard makes entering texts a lot quicker. I'd just like to see a few more features...

Other than the 3650, the best Nokia phone on the market is probably the 7250, but even that lacks BT... when will Nokia catch up?

Why would you really want bluetooth (how many people actually use it!?) WAP is WAp to the average phone user and you can buy a camera to attatch on through the Pop-Port..

Everyone has their own opinion though....

I use Bluetooth all the time. It's a really fantastic technology. Once you've had it, you won't go back!

Hi Kris

There you go m8, download them, unzip them, and use them. just use the one's under 15k or so.

Happy hunting

Sharp GX10i - excellent user interface (similar to Nokia), not bad camera, polyringtones, 65K Colour Screen, Tri Band. No bluetooth and the battery isn't that good and only on Vodafone...
IMHO the T610 lagged when going through the menu's, the 7250 vastly over-rated, terrible colour screen 4.5K only...

Try before you buy!
