  • How about the Sony Ericsson K750i ?

    It has a 2mb camera, is easy to use, costs £80-100 depending on network and can take memory cards :)

    I would agree with nomoneytoday, the Sony Ericsson K750i is a great little phone. Good camera, great battery life compared to other phones with the same spec. Radio, memory card expansion which supports up to 4GB and also you get 2 years manufacturers warranty! Even has a camera LED which doubles up as a flashlight.

    :)

    agree with other posters, I got one for my daughter for christmas & it cost me just under £80 via a new account discount with kays (and I get to pay it over 20 weeks!). Great phone and not much different to my w810i. Camera/Video/MP3/memory expansion slot/Radio....good specs for the price.
    Jertzy x :D

    I was relieved since I knew Santa wouldn’t lie to me ...
  • The 6233 would be the one to go for.

    Just remember it's on T-Mobile so might have to swtich or get it unlocked.

    As someone who sells a fair number of phones, I'd still opt for the K750i.

    It is well built, well spec'd, a proven unit that still has one of the best cameras around despite its age.

    Ergonomically it has a good feel to it as well. It is a actually a nicer phone than its successor the K800i, the only benefit of the K800i being a better camera and 3G.

    You may like the look of the 6233, but there must be a reason why 99% of the replies have said go for the K750i.
