Best GSM Phone?

I'm looking for the best phone in the market with all the features that will work with Tmobile. I have a tough time sticking with one phone...

I've been thru the motorola razr and its crappy wap only browser.

I switched to the blackberry (7100, 7105, pearl, curve) and wasn't impressed with the browser.... the phone itself is awesome (especially the curve!).

Now I'm back to a motorola razr2 and I can't stand this thing... I liked it initially but now I feel the software is just 'weak' as compared to the the blackberrys and the web browser is the same as the razr....

I tried the HTC Wing but the thing crashes a lot! (any windows mobile phone for that matter)...

I ordered the N95 8GB and returned it, the keys are just too small on it....

I even ordered the iphone and tried it out for 3 days... the 'touch' interface is just not for me and the phone is missing alot of features that for say, the blackberry can do (like the drop down menus for additional options)...

Is there a phone out there with an OS like the blackberry, the web browser like the n95/wing, and the size like the razr/curve?

HELP!... Is there a phone out for me? Am I missing something out? Is there a phone coming that I should wait for?

Have you tried a SE K850i? You can use Opera Mini 4 for full web.

Might want to check out the Nokia E51. Has the same basic specs as the N95 except for a worse camera, but in a much slimmer form and a better keypad. Runs symbian, has Wifi, 3G, great browser - pretty much everything you'd ever need.

What do you plan on using your phone for?

The razr2 has opera mobile installed. I beleive most people were able to get it working in html as opposed to wap on the tmobile version. If it is a unlocked v8 then it is already set to opera mobile. To enable full html viewing go into the settings and turn off "fit to page". Now you can view pages like on the desktop(besides the small screen) and zoom in & out.
Opera Mini 4.0 works great on the unlocked v8 but I beleive the tmobile branded version does not allow third party apps to access data.

There is no hidden phone that you have yet to discover. You already have tried
the good phones that are out currently. BB8820, iPhone, Razr2, n95. I would just get the browser set up correctly on your razr2 and wait for a little while. Hopefully some exiting new phones will be released at 3gsm next week!
