Batchy-Boy

Hello,

I need a new phone as my INQ1 has broken again.

The phone must have:

3G
Radio
Music Player
Camera
Under £150

Ideally it would be slide but not to fussed if I have to change.

Thanks,

Mark

How old is your INQ1? Any chance of getting it repaired?

The INQ1 was brought in March, but I would like a new one.

The case at the back has cracked and falls of all the time aswell as the silver bit at the bottom.

How about a viewty or tocco. Both do what you want and more. And both can be picked up for around £80

Did have a Viewty but didn't like. Will now look at Tocco, thanks.

Well any thing will be better than a Nokia 5800
Never again lol. ( broken screen cant do any thing)

I am going to throw some conflict into the thread by suggesting the Nokia 5800. I love mine. Fine music. Excellent call quality. Responsive interface (usually). Good battery life for an all-singing, all-dancing smartphone. Cheap, for an all-singing, all-dancing 3G and GPS-equipped smartphone.

Except for the fact that it's currently in Nokia's hands for a broken speaker. :-s

Nokia E63 does all of those with a QWERTY keyboard and Wi-Fi, can be picked up for sub £150 if you like the Series 60 operating system but don't fancy a touch screen. It's only standard (384kbps) 3G, not HSDPA though.

Otherwise an N95 can be picked up sub £100 second-hand, might be a few years old but still up there with the best of them in terms of features.

Fiish,

How freaky is that, I had narrowed down to two phone, Nokia 6500 slide and Nokia 5800 and I chose the 5800.

One thing though, I can't find anywhere cheap.

Needs to be unlocked or on three PAYG but cheapest is play.com at £160

peregrin

For <£150 and that phone you might have to be considering second-hand really - try Gumtree or eBay?

I just reviewed a whole heap of different touchscreen phones with 3g etc and my personal choice would be the Nokia 5800
