Sony

Just get which ever one you like the look of. As long as you can make a phonecall with it does it really matter?

Bet you've got an expensive watch as well

My mate had 3G a year ago and it was very annoying, kept dropping signal and then taking ages to switch over to 02. Does anyone have experience of using 3G in an area where the 3g coverage isnt perfect? I'm thinking of getting one so it would be useful to know.

I have a V3 in Black , Cracking phone, battery life is good , Menus are easily followed (Have been with motorolas a few years now though) Green Tooth works at a very good distance , better than most nokias

Worth it if you can get one for the right money
Im Just concerned how well it will age , being black & silver underneath, May look scruffy after a few dings & Drops

Thumbs up

RR_ww: no expensive watch for me
I just get sick of getting phones that initially seem good, then turn out to be crap

I used to have a 3g in the early days and it was CRAP outside of central london.

Thanks for the advice- will look out for the 6230i then.
no idea if I can swap to that but will find out soon enough.

I've got a 6230 and I think it's great.

I upgraded to a Motorola V600 last year and I hated it trying to get round it's crap menu. Went back to my 6310i after 2 weeks until I upgraded again last month and got the 6230.
