I have seen the review for u880 and I am quite impressed. I have a feeling the u890 will be an upgrade. That said Id ask you: what do you want your phone to do? Nowadays we want a phone that can, apart from calls and sms, support full multimedia, download and play games, browse the net without hassles. "User friendly" is the bottom line. Another important aspect is memory: both internal and external. I use u8330 and am going to upgrade to u880 or u900. If you have the bucks go for a top grade phone which you'll not need to change for a long time. Good luck.

I text alot, like on one year over 6000 messages, both mms and sms, I also use the gprs much, over 10000 hours on one year! U890 has msn messenger and it's free with 3 three Sweden to use it, but i'm not sure, if i am ready to not have Pre-paid, i'm only 16 ;-)

Well the U880 has conventional keys and the U890 has RAZR metal keys. I'm guessing the U880 must be easier to text with. The U890 has a larger physical screen size of 2.2 inches compared with the U880's 2 inch screen. And the U890 is thinner by about a millimetre.

Hope it helps

Yeah, but what about the camera, is it the same?

Well they're the the same resolution of 1.3mp and I'd guess that LG would make an incrimental improvement with the camera on the new model. Even so, I wouldn't think that it would be a huge improvement (cause nothing really has changed from the U880).

I looked on 3s internet site, the price is the same with a pre-paid card, but the 890 design is nicer than 880, 890 is more soft ;-)
