Hello Ppl.

Here's The Thing. My Girlfriend's Birthday's Arriving And I Want To Give Her A Cellphone.

Problem Is: I Dont Have A Lot Of Money Right Now. So I'm Making A Survey To Buy A Cheap One, But I Dont Want To Give Her Garbage.

So, My Question Is. Which Of The Cheap Phones, Would You Recomend? It Needs To Be Gsm, So That I Can Put A Sim Card.

Ps: She Likes To Take Pics And I Think She'd Prefer A Bar Or Slide Phone. Maybe A Pink One? The Color Is Not Essential, Though. But A Pink One Would Be Nice.

Ps2: I Really Need The Cheapier Possible. I Dont Have Much Money Right Now (and I Think I Already Said That )

I would get her a k750, then flash it to a w800 using far or da vinci. (FAR is free!)

True. But the w810 is about £160 and thats a lot on a phone unless you are going to get it on contract. The k750 is about £80 now and that is great value! However a w810 would still be an excellent choice

Well i got my W810 from o2 in pearl white with free speakers and 512 memory stick for £120. If your already an o2 payg customer for over a year you earn discounts. Pop into a store to find out. There based on how much you've topped up by. I'm sure you can get a w810 for around 100 these days. . .

K610i in red is nice IMO
but the best is a pink Z610(if she likes pink)

the best cheap phone (almost disappearing from mobile shops) is the k750. if you have more money to buy a phone more expensive than the k750, then go for a 810.

White K550i. GSM, attractive, inexpensive, Cybershot, bar form factor, well equipped with features.

Bought my wife one for our anniversary. Her first and she just loves it.

Except for the color, sounds like everything you're looking for. Not sure what others here are smoking.

have you thought of a k800....? There only about £140 thats an amazing deal. Would you consider given her that? Or would you take on the offer yourself!? Well its up to you. These guys have come up with some good options.

I'd echo the comments about the W810i, excellent all-rounder phone now available at a good price. Or the K800i for the camera if you can stretch to it - maybe a secondhand but good con one if not?

If budget's tight, then you could possibly go for the W300i - Excellent and nice looking little clamshell - though only has a VGA camera - picture quality from that lens is pretty good though and can be extended to 1.3mp.
