Im going to buy a new phone but i don't know what phone i shuld buy.
I have had nokias for ever and it seems that the nokias is just getting weeker and weeker.
I have herd a lot good about the ericcson's new telephones.

Ok i can afford theese phones:
Ericcson T65
Nokia 3310
Nokia 3330
And maybee some other phones but ok the limit is around 300£ and i do not want anything else just the phone.
So what shuld i buy the nokia or the new ericcson?

I need the t9 like the nokias has does the ericcson have that?
I have herd that it has it is it true?
I need a quality phone..
And give me the details on what the phone has:
Like the nokias you can have a logo ringing tones, games, and whatever.
I would also like to see what the ericcson have.
So lmk what you think is good about the phone and what is bad about it.
Thanks

As a summary, you can use the phone comparison feature here at Esato.

For details, you can go to
a) www.sonyericsson.com/t65

I own a T68 and my wife a T65. We love these models. We did own Nokias in the past 8210 and 3330, we we already dumped them.

If your budget permits, and an external antennae does not bother you, the T39 is a good one.

b) www.sonyericsson.com/t39

Cheers.

go to www.gsmarena.com
for all functions of phones and reviews...

I'd wait a little and buy the T68, the price will probably drop within two weeks when the T68i is released....

Men I woul wait and definitly buy a T66: good functions, good T9 writing at low price!
Much better than any of the 3310/3330, believe me, MUCH BETTER!
Besides of being the smallest and lightest phone in the market!
T66= good choise!

... well I have a T68 and it's my first and last Sony Ericsson product, and I would reccommend that you look elsewhere as they only just mess about with you, they dont value you as a customer and don't carry out their promises!

Well i dunno.. I think il go for the t65 but il waith some weeks becouse all the phones will be cheeper after easter.
So that will help.

How much do you think the phone t68 will go down in price?
I think the color screen is expensive to have and that is why i can't afford it.
I think i will go for the t65.
Is that a bad chice?

Please post up good things about it and bad things about it ok thanks..

Well, save your money for T68, trust me, it is the best phone and it has everything you asked for, what we are concerning now in the forum is the new software, they just cant give us an exact date for the software release, and after the software update,

Well the thing is i would save my money for the t68 but my dad say's:
400£ for a phone is a waste of money..
And i agre i think that is too expensive.
So my guess will be that i will buy the t65 for around 200£..
The half of that price..

But some questions about it.
Does it have t9?
It vibrates right?
Have anyone had any problems with it?
Do you think you get quality for that money?
Is it worth it?


Well it's some stupid questions but who cares really.
In 3 weeks or something it's probably beeing a Ericsson on my side and not a Nokia..
Im very happy with the nokias it's just that they just get more and more lozy for every phone they make.
Just look at the 8210 peaple has problems with the display. The same thing with the new 8310 too. And that is something i don't like.
And i can't afford to but my phone in service 4 times a year.

But my 6150 has been a very good phone. It has quality and that is something that i like about it.
I have dropped it in water (Misstake) and it works like a new phone so that is what i like about it.

So the T65 has that kind of quality right.

T65 have been all recalled by SonyEricsson recently.

I would personally go for a 33xx within this price range.

hmmm, quality control?

as Ericsson sell more phones we hear more and more stories of bad experiences..just like with Nokia and their faulty screens.

no one can guarantee the t65 will be solid and free from defects as it's probably in as big a production run as other popular handsets.

i've had bad experiences from a t28 which was changed 3 times and is now worthless with no warranty which means if it breaks down again i've lost everything...although i've already written off the cost.

with this in mind choose carefully where you buy the phone, get a full warranty and if it breaks down on you demand a refund and go get the Nokia 3330.

at least with the Nokia if you drop it all you have to do is change the case and bring it back...they'll never know.
