I am thinking of signing up to the Orange online tariff 200 mins cross network and 500 texts/month for £27 but I'm not sure which phone to choose.
I am after something small but am not bothered if it has a camera or bluetooth. Here is my rather long short list:
Nokia 6230
Sony Ericsson K700i
Samsung E700
Samsung E330
Motorola V600
Motorola V545
Motorola V220
Opinions on each would be greatly appreciated. Thanks in advance.

    i would say no to Sony ericsson k700i, i have it and the battery life is really bad, it last 1 day
    Life should not be taken seriously, as no one would get out alive

    For me the Nokia 6230 is almost the perfect phone. It does everything you could possibly want in a mobile, and it does it pretty well! Its a Nokia - very fast and easy to use. The only downside is that the screen is a bit small, but this is only really a problem if you plan on watching things on it!

    The ability to increase the memory to up to 1GB (or maybe more) means it makes a great media player too!

    I have the Samsung E700 for a couple of months and hated it. Possibly the worst phone I've ever used. Menu was alwful to use, and I think the only thing going for the phone is the fact that the handset does look very nice.

    Haven't used the Motorolas before. If you have any specific question about the 6230 please do ask.
