Researching phones for my 16yr old DD1.
O2 P+G compatible essential as on O2 family.
She has a SE 750i that is nigh on dead as she's had it years and looked after it well. It keeps freezing etc now.
Looking for something nice but not flashy as she isn't a flashy kid and we don't want to attract thieves!
Good camera, MP3 /radio essential. She doesn't have incl mobile web so a web dependent phone not ideal.
I thought nokia 5300 express music looks good (£120 approx) but actually found a refurn Viewty lite at CPW for just £79 which looks perfect (better camera than the nokia). Cookie/tocco lite also possible but not sure.
Would you get the viewty??
What else to consider?
(she could have the viewty this month, more expensive and she'll have to wait till Oct, so if she were offered the choice that might swing it! She has little interest in phones and doesn't even know what her mates have got, just that she loves her SE and wants something that will be as good/better).

I've just bought one for the Mrs. Got CPW to pricematch play.com, £78 + £10 topup for a brand new one (Play do them for £79.99, but locked to Voda). Preferred it to a refurb.
Decent phone, ok to use, good responsive screen, great camera. Had a K800i which is better as a phone but got Viewty Lite for web use. Do note btw, it comes with phone and charger only, no software, memory card, headphones, case, stylus, data cable etc. Have since spent over £10 picking them up off ebay.
Did consider the Tocco Lite, it's more modern but worse camera and lack of 3g put me off (viewty has HSDPA).0
