Hi there!

I just cannot make up my mind on which new phone to get!
I've had my T68 for almost a year now and I feel it's about time I got a new "toy" to play with. I'm trying to choose between these two; Nokia 7210 and Samsung s100. So what do you people think?
Any opinions would be much appreciated!
Btw, I'm not looking to substitute my T68.

Thanks

I would go for the s100. It's pretty cool.

Hi Ulukai, do you own it? Can you tell me if the interface on this phone is fast, going through the menus, writing sms etc. ?

Thanks

I was considering the S-100 before, but I decided not too get it after watching a million advertisments about the phone here in California.

So, I'm just going to wait for the Sendo Z100, or perhaps a better phone.

Hmmm... The Sendo z100 DOES sound promising, but it is a long wait though isn't it?

Buy the T300! Cheaper and better! 40-channel polyphonic ringtones! You can get an entire symphony orchestra out of this phone! Amazing!

The V100 doesn't support JAVA and neither does the T300.
The T300 is definatly NOT my cup of tea. Actually I've already decided to go with the S100. I've ordered it from Germany and I just can't wait to get my hands on it!

Really? You think they are heavy?
Nokia 7210 = 83grams
Samsung s100 = 94grams with the slim battery

@Kevin81
Do you want the T300 because of the ringtones?

The T300 may be cheap and include a lot of functions for that kind of price..

But what about the design?

According to me it looks like a babywatcher walkietalkie-thingy ..
Horrible in other words.
SE designdepartment is really lossing it.. Sure the P800 looks really nice, but there should have been more coulor-options, Like brushed aluminium and/or titanium gray looking coulors.

Yes, these words are comeing from me that is leaving SE. for Nokia.

But i can say that Nokias designdep. is loosing it aswell.
The 7210 is more design than function, too bad.
And that new 3650 looks like a drunk handicapped polarbear.

No, the only descent new thing that has come out from Nokia recently is the 6610, and that is the phone i will buy. (when it comes out that is)

yapliren, I so agree with you. I'll just wait for new smarter phones instead of buying phones which are close to or even worst than the t68. These new phones are great with color screens, but incredibily lacking in features.
