Which Nokia??

Hi All,i used to be a Nokia fan but 2 years ago i brought a Motorola V80 then recently a V3, both packed up often,luckily i could reboot the V3,i bored with the Motorolas now and would like to go back to Nokias,i want a good PAYG phone on either O2 or Orange with a MP3 player,Megapixel camera and video, descent quality screen etc etc,can you guys recommend a good nokia to buy on PAYG,or are there better models out there?,i just sold a Samsung D600 which i could not get on with,great camera and video but as i send around 750 texts a month i found the text menu hard work
Any advice would be greatly appreciated
thanx

    For the kind of features you're looking for, I'd actually look at the Sony Ericsson models instead. You can get a W550i, for example, totally free (by cashback) on a contract or fairly cheap on PAYG. If you insist on a Nokia, however... the 6111 isn't bad, and it's a slider similar to your old D600.

    I feel for you on the D600, I use one myself and find the texting is painfully slow but my text usage is about 1/10 of yours so it matters a lot less :P

    I am also a Nokia fan and have been using them since many years......the recent handsets 6630 and 6680 are very good and handy to use it......N70 is also not bad but its very slow to boot......people advise that if u upgrade the ssoftware of N70 to the newer version than it becomes a bit fast...the camera is 2 megapixel and is of good quality....Nokia 6280 is a decent handset but it has many problems with the software as it reboots when ever u r making a call but i had this problem only 2 or 3 times till now since last 3 months......so i would suggest Nokia 6630, 6680 or N70 upgraded to the new software to be very good.......out of these 3 handsets i liked Nokia 6630 the best though its a bit bigger in size but light.........for Nokia 6630 &6680 you will get good clearance offers in many leading online shops......i hope this might help you.......
    cheers
  • I recently got a nokia 6280. Great slider phone. 2 megapixel camera, MP3 Player, and videop. Dont think this has been released on Orange yet, but is out on O2.
