I'm due an upgrade and looking at my options....does anyone have anything to say about the following phones...they all seem quite similar in memory, size and camera...


Sony W995
LG Renoir
Samsung i8510

I am used to LG's had about 4 of them, great reception, reliable and trust them. My phone just now is the LG Viewty U990 touch screen thingy-ma-jigger... touchscreen is ok and I am not bothered either way in having another.....so....


Any reviews appreciated, thanks in advance

Ditch and get an iPhone. It's the best thing you'll ever do.

Resist the urge to follow the sheep. The new firmware update for the Iphone turns it into a zombie, the battery has a propensity to explode and you can only install apps that Apple deem appropriate.
Don't know anything about the phones your looking at.

I got the sony one recently. It's no Iphone obviously but you can call people on it and store plenty of photos/music. Long battery life, which I always look for in a phone. Um you can go on youtube which is cool, I've used this in soul band practice when learning new covers and there is no CD. It's also Skype enabled, I'm with 3 so this is a good thing, you can make free skype calls or something - I've yet to work this out. Oh yeah and it came with the contract so no forking out of extra money to get it. Decent, easy enough to use software for storing all of your numbers and backing up pictures on your computer.

I really must be trying to avoid work by replying to this thread.

But then you don't get the most up to date firmware. Plus it voids the warranty. Another reason not to get the jesus phone is the fact you have to pay for it on top of the 18-24 month contract.

You can update the firmware and re-jailbreak it. It's a very simple process.
