Hi guys,
Not posted on here much, but read quite often.
I have a K700i and am more than happy with it....but....I get bored of phones quite quickly and am always looking for replacements.

The phones that have caught my eye over the past few months are as follows.
K750i
V800
S700i

The benefits of the K750i are obvious I'm sure, but as I am a pay-as-you-go user, phones usually cost me a lot of money....K750i £299.

Are the other 2 worth the upgrade or should I wait (or splash out) for the K750i to drop a little.

Cheers for any input.

@se now a days all fones get fast quickly, cos every week there is a new one on the market. weird, my /// models never made me bored... anyway, if u decide to buy a fone, test it before u get it, compare every little option with the other models u are interested and decide wise then. ps: u ll get bored anyway, cos the next new gadget is on the way already. as i mentoend before, thats the way it is now a days....

For me form factor and ergonomics are a big factor in my decision, so I always like to try new form factor's before I buy. I bought a V525 on specs alone, and although it did exactly what I wanted it to (for the price I could afford) the clamshell form factor was a real turn off for me.

The S700 is quite different, so while it's a good phone, when I got a chance to play with one, I found I disliked the swivel even more than a clamshell! So an S700 is out for me (I'd only be buying it for the memory expansion anyway).

The V800 is a clamshell and only really has 3G and a swivel cam going for it.

So that leaves the trusty old candybar K750i (and bonus a 2mp Auto focus digicam) for me

Yes. With the present feedback k750 will be better in near future & its price also will come down. You may wait.

why do phones cost you more because u are on pay as you go... u can buy a k750i and then use it ... it doesn't have to be a pay as you go version, aslong as its unlocked

Hi all, thanks for the replys.

I think I will wait for the K750 to come down in price then snap one up.

The reason phones cost me more is because I have bad credit rating, so contract phones are out !!!
On e-bay the K750 is £250 and I don't want to pay that much.

Thanks again.
