Spend my money...PICK MY PHONE!

(Click here to view the original thread with full colors/images)


Posted by: knucklebone04

I am new to this forum but not new to cell phones. I am giving up my LG VX6000 and am joining up on someone's Cingular Family Plan.

I am looking to buy a new or gently used unlocked GSM phone, probably on EBay because there seems to be good prices on almost every phone there, unless you have better suggestions.

The most important features to me are:

I do not mind if it isn't the latest or newest model, just that it does what I want. I do not want to spend over $200.

Thanks in advance!

Anyone gonna post why they'd pick a specific phone?



Posted by: braindead5400

there is no need to, you listed what you wanted, we are telling you what phones fill your needs.

Although, the 6230 doesn't directly fit into the style category. If you can do without video recording, then look at the E398 as well, close in features to the 6230, and it looks more stylish

It seems like everyone agrees that the 6230, e398, and the V551 are the best phones at the price range of around 200usd on ebay. Out of those three, which has the better value? For me, I would rather have a cellphone that I could expand upon it's memory in order to play mp3s and movies on it. Can you add memory on the V551?



Posted by: braindead5400

no you cannot add memory to the V551. If you are going for mp3's and movies, then get the E398, bigger screen and better battery life



Posted by: paramS7

pick E398, it misses the vid record feature but makes it up with its awesome music playback quality.



Posted by: overclock

What do you guys think about the k700i, even though it doesn't have an expandable memory?



Posted by: overclock

well...it seems that i can't get a new e398 for less than 170usd on ebay (shipping charges are unreal!), so i suppose i'll go with the m551 unless someone has objections to that choice.

Correction V551>

I think i'll wait for the prices of the e398 to decrease.
