Alcatel 756 T-Mobile £19.99
Siemens M65 O2 £49.99
Motorola E550 T-Mobile £59.99 (Bluetooth)
Nokia 6610i T-Mobile £59.99
Sony Ericsson K700i Vodafone (Bluetooth) £69.99
Siemens C65 Orange £19.99
Siemens S65 £49.99 Orange (1megapixel camera)
SAmsung X640 £49.99 Vodafone
O2 X1B £49.99 O2 Bluetooth


All in carphonewarehouse sale

A decent camera phone is all I want, all also require and extra £5 or £10 top up

All listed are camera phone and I have listed the bluetooth phones (I'm so out of touch.....what is bluetooth? I have a vague idea)

Thanks

    Bluetooth allows connections to be made between two devices without a cable by using a low power radio wave. For example a Bluetooth handsfree kit could function up to 10m away from the phone, without requiring a direct line-of-sight (as is required with infra-red connections).

    I don't think the O2 X1B comes highly recommended and certainly not at the CPW price. Might be just about worth £29.99 which is how much it costs via the O2 student link:

    Thanks, maybe I will avoid that one then.

    Can't decide on what other one to go for, like the sound of the Nokia 6610i and Motorola E550

    I like my 6610i. Rubbish camera, but then they all will be at those prices

    My flatmate got a Nokia 3220 and the camera is reasonable on that, but we'd get confused with the same phone

    You could get one on a different network and unlock it yourself (2 min job), as the networks have different fascias on -

    O2 sell it with a white fascia and Orange sell it with a black fascia.

    Not sure what colour it is on t-Mobile...
