Indie, I sold one of those on ebay today. How much did it cost you?

I have an iPhone, and use it very frequently.

Only downer is battery life.

Your Phone: Blackberry Pearl Flip

+1

6 dead batteries

 

[clivewaterhousen]

i just bought one of those external batteries off ebay so that i can watch movies on the plane without the battery running out.

 

[Bulldog Breed]

Also have an iPhone.

Mines got a few problems. When it's on vibrate, it'll sometimes just vibrate spasmodically or if a cetain spot on the back of the phone is pressed then it'll also vibrate. It can get extremely annoying when I'm wearing jeans and it's in my pocket. Only recently I've realised something was wrong with my main button/home button, sometimes I have to press it pretty hard for it to respond. I didn't think it was much of a problem until I tried out friends' iPhones.

Eh, still a big fan of it.

Your Phone: Nokia N70
Rating out of 10: 7/10
Best Features: Very easy to use. Has lasted me about 5 years. Still better than most phones out there.
Worst Features: Power button has broken off. Have to turn phone on using alfoil. Doesn't have the wifis. Bit bulky.
Would you recommend it to others?: Nah. I like it cos it's uniquely mine. But it is a good phone, if you don't use wifi (which unfortunately I'd like to do )

I've got the same and about half a year left on the plan, i like it for all those things you've listed and the qwerty keypads handy too. Mines never frozen though which is handy, fingers crossed it stays that way.

perfect time for this thread to open, I'm in line for a new phone and need some advice. no chance in hell i'm getting a god damn iphone though, the biggest turn off for me is the battery life and not being able to customise your message tone

would probably rather stick with nokia, how's that E5? is that a more expensive phone??


for the sake of the thread, here's what i've been rockin since '07.

Your Phone: Nokia 6120
Rating out of 10: 7/10
Best Features: sturdy, can withstand multiple drops. does everything it needs to
Worst Features: no real weaknesses. can't display some web pages properly
Would you recommend it to others?: yes, about 3 years ago

Yea, in the 90s, now they're just shit.

IPhone for me, love it.

Gor - charge it every night, and I'm pretty sure the latest OS Update lets you customise ringtones.

I've heard that the Motorola DROID is a great iPhone alternative... does anyone have one? I'm attracted to it because I hate touch keyboards.

I've been looking at something like this as a solution for the iPhone:

but aside from the extra bulk I figure it would just kill the battery life even quicker.
