I only have up to £200 to spend on a new phone and it needs to be able to play music and be able to fit atleast a 2gb memory onto it |

Depends what else your looking for. Do you want good camera? If you want something around that price with good music and camera with high memory capacity i suggest a SonyEricsson C902. I seen them in sales now for £195. Not sure if you can find it lower.

wow you can buy a c902 with £200? over in nz it's closer to £400, or £300 from trademe( nz's online auction site). goodness i would never classify that as "very little money" lol
Well anyway if w910's are still around where you are i'm certain it'd be cheaper, and it supports 2gb m2's, a couple of my friends have them and it seems nice. But yea can you be more specific as to what you're looking for?

Would not recommend W910i. Not one of SonyEricsson's finest moments. Yes i seen C902 for £195 in Phones4U and Carphone. Best buy it from Carphone as it will be Sim free. Not sure if it is in Phones4U. |

Funny that, wel one of my friends has had her w910 for about 7 months now, and its been a trouble free experience for her. Saying that though c902 is definetly a better choice...but hey bonovox doesn't the c902 have a few of its own problems as well |

Yes the C902 is not without its problems. But i had a W910i and this is what i think. It feels cheap and plasticky poor music audio it sounded tinny. Poor speaker on the back very very tinny. Call quality was too quiet and reception poor. Camera might aswell not have even bothered with one. Horrible keypad. Nice screen though.
Phone?? What phone?? |

I would suggest T700, W880 or W890i
They can play music with good sound quality and can accept 2GB memory cards.
And they are very compact and stylish.

Or W760 which along with W890 are both now under £100. The W880 is good but has things like microphone problems and other such problems. Though no Orange now its in the sale for £48. Nice.

Most certainly not one of their finest moments. How they can call it a music phone with a speaker like that. Mine keeps freezing/restarting and at school someone else told me they had the same problems. It looks good but does not perform and is the reason why am also looking for a decent phone for under £200 whats the latest firmware like on the C902? |

Well its not just speaker. I listened to the sound on headphones it was tinny and kept fading in and out. So so poor. Music phone my arse.

Also it has to be in standby for the phone to lock when the slider is closed. So annoying. Infact it is the second worst phone I've ever had. The first being the K850. That annoyed me so much. It was a terrible phone. But I must say, the speaker was better than that of the W910.
And how about the C902 and W595? Do they have any issues? May be buying a new phone tomorrow and it's between them and the Samsung Soul. |
