Two weeks ago i got my upgrade, i decided to go with the Samsung U600 because it was small and looked stylish, after the first few days i had noticed that the screen seems to scratch unbelievably easy but i thought no worries as it was going to scratch eventually anyway, this morning at work i was checking the time on my phone and as i went to slide it back in to my pocket i missed and it hit the wooden floor, i picked it back up thinking no biggy to find to my horror that the screen had smashed!! I'm only a short guy so your only talking about a drop of say 70cm, i just cant believe it my k810i had bounced down stairs and everything with no problems, anyway so to cut this short i'm back in the market for a new handset and would just like to know what you guys recommend
/Ste

Photo's
W n' W
Calls
Texting
Calender
well everything except music

Had the K810i last time i got a phone and wouldn't again due to the Joy stick problems (mine stopped working twice, had it repaired but by the 3rd time i decided it was time for something new, i went with the u600 as i was now due my upgrade.... BIG mistake).
The k850i looks nice but the D-Pad looks hard to use and it seems to have more buttons around its sides then it does on the face of the phone. |

Is the camera really important to you? |

If you are able to wait then C702i or C902i are your choice (i strongly prefer C702i). |

How about a BB Pearl, T-Mobile do some good BB deals, once you get used to the Suretype text input the phones a doddle to navigate, photos are ok but its no SE K series. But I find going back to a normal phone a step backwards. |

Sorry I mis-read your post I thought you were getting it as an upgrade, where you'd get it for free, BB pearls seem to be expensive off line about £220 which is way over the top. I've vowed never to get another Samsung after I Have a screen break on a D900, far too fragile. |

Hmmm £220 is a little bit more then i was willing to spend, i have another phone that started its contract 6 months ago, what are the chances of them letting me upgrade that to something different? |

K770i? Awesome camera, does everything you need, nice and thin, and best of all, no annoying joystick! |

Or a T650i, affordable, good camera from what i saw and heard from people who tried it and without the bad joystick. |

Yeah, T650i is a beautiful phone and the screen shouldn't get damaged easily with its mineral glass. It has a pretty good camera too! Other than that, I'd say a K770i which is similar, but with camera protection rather than screen protection.
