Top-5 best-looking phones (based on LOOKS alone)

Click to view updated thread with images


Posted by kabukijep
There may be another thread out there, but lately we've seen a plethora of new phones out, and newly-announced ones. Let's set a few categories:

- It doesnt have to be (no biases here!) I know there's lotsa and /// purists here (like myself) but hey,
- It has to be mainstream. No "exclusive" phones (Vertu, etc)
- It has to be a real phone. Either released or officially announced (no Black Diamonds here)
- No flaming! What's good-looking to one poster may not be good-looking to another. Respect individual preferences and differences. Show some love
- Again, to rub it in even more, base your decision solely on the looks of the phone. Bluetooth, megapixel cameras, UMTS notwithstanding

Let's get the ball rolling! Here's my list:

5 - Ericsson T68 (not the re-release, in midnight grey, except for the cheap plastic yes/no buttons )
4 - Nokia 5140/5140i (yes, a nokia!) I especially fancy the blue one. Very nicely-designed keypad, and the rubber edging is just drop-dead gorgeous
3 - T610 - classic minimalistic design. perfect melding of aluminum and plastics. in volcanic red
2 - W810 and silver K610 (in equal footing). The cheap plastic keys make their comeback yet again with the W810's buttons, couldve decided to use some aluminium here instead, but well.. can't have it all, i guess..
1 - RAZR V3i, in steel grey. Hold the comments yet! You hate it how everybody down the street has one, and I know Moto's killed this beauty by cash cowing all they can, but hey. It just oozes sexy from every angle. It's sort of become a guilty pleasure ogling at this piece.

As you can tell, I'm not a big Samsung fan.

8800, T630, P900, L6 (i know I know, I just like it), that chocolate LG phone but in white.

Posted by kk.226
Don't be gay, the V3 and L6 maybe.... not the L7!!!

But to be honest, I would rather it had a price of around £500, at least then I'd feel better about having one, no doubt it's sexy though!

Posted by scottt
Darn forgot bout the L7 looks darn nice specially with its scarlet theme. I miss mine Cheap too

Posted by kabukijep
i find it wierd that 50% of the posters use a W810 avatar yet no one other than myself has it in their list

Posted by scapevlocity
okay, first off i want to say that i was pressured into answering this thread...

i was asked this question beforehand (and yes, even before kabuki's most recent post) and...

in no particular order:

W810 (inconspicuously sexy. i had the w800 before and it was ergh.)
T68i (yes, the white one)
Nokia 7250 (black and purple - my 2 favorite colors!)
Nokia 7610 - black
Motorola RAZR - black (just for the looks, right?)

Must I reiterate that I love black?

The 8800 and the V2/Startac designs seem quite popular here.

I would add an old school samsung designed by Pinafarina in the list.

T39m... ya call me nostalgic


Posted by IRFCA_WDG-3A
5. MotoRAZR v3i
4. Sony Ericsson K700
3. Samsung C100
2. Sony Ericsson K750i
1. Sony Ericsson S700i

Others are pretty self-explanatory, but the odd one out is the Samsung C100 - the worlds first "slim" phone. I own it till date, and 4 years since i bought it, not a single problem with it. The battery still goes fine, giving me 2 days of backup.

escapevl0city youre suchanass

here's my contribution to this list:

  1. Sony Ericsson S700 (my current phone! looks like a miniature PDA with its huge screen, although some people find it to be a bit bulky)
  2. Sony Ericsson T610 (my like-at-first-sight phone; i really liked its looks and eventually bought one. have to sell it for its joystick problems)
  3. Motorola V3 black (i must admit, it looks really good! as for the features...)
  4. Nokia 8855(i dreamed of having one before and up to now, it looks plain and simple! i'd be willing to get a second-hand unit of this one if the price is reasonable enough)
  5. Nokia 6111(i know, i know, it is designed for women to use, but the simplicity in its looks made several men - including me - like it too)

teehee...

Also I thought the Treo650 is pretty nice looking, wouldn't make my top5 sadly.

The best looking phone is T68m no doubt about it!

Posted by Prom1
My submissions to phones comes in this order.

1) T39m - this baby is just perrrrfect.

2) W810i

3) RIM 8100 Black Pearl ... coming on Tmobile (not officially announced but WELL leaked on engadgetmobile.com by Boy Genius).

4) K750i

5) P990i

Posted by goldenface
1) S700i - a truly great looking piece of kit - especially when all shiny and new.

2) Silver / Black T610 - the solid cool aluminium feel and piano black made is stand out.

3) K750i - a winner on looks alone.

4) W950 - looks very nice to me although not out yet

5) K800i / K790i - I like the dual concept design.

3. K790 (Classy and somewhat stylish)
4. V3 RAZR (this one broke into my SE preference)
5. K750 silver (no comments)

Has to be the W800..
Sweet retro looks.. ivory and orange how cool is that!

Wish Sony had kept that theme.. now we have W810 and K800 in exciting black...... NOT!! Black and silver phones are boring, might as well go buy a nokia!
