As I seem to have lost my old phone, I've decided its time for a new one, and looking round, the Samsung D500 looks good, I was just wondering if there is anything else I should take a look at before spending my hard earned.

I just want something small and neat, preferably with a reasonable camera, and most importantly Bluetooth. Only other thing I'd quite like is MP3 ringtones, but I can live without it. I don't need MSN messenger, or to do my accounting, or the ability to play Doom thanks, I just want it to go ring-ring. :D

I've found the D500 for £130 on O2 PAYG, so I'm looking around that price, maybe up to £150 but no more. Not bothered what network, just needs to be PAYG (or sim-free and I'll pick up a cheap sim, but I think that'd work out too pricey..).

Any suggestions?

Thanks.

k750i
 
ive just swapped from a D500 to a k750i - i can deffinately recomend the D500 great phone, as for the k750i, well not sure yet as ive just got it 2days ago but so far all seems good. The only real difference ive noticed so far between the two is the difference in camera quality, the k750i is far superior ( by no means is the d500 rubbish tho). You can set mp3s as txt msg alert tone on the k750i but cant on D500.
 
The D500 is a little old now. It is a great phone. The camera and battery life is nothing to get excited about though. I'd recommend the Nokia 6230i. I just bought one. Has deacent enough camera, good battery life, just the right size and weight, takes memory cards and it's got a radio aswell. I had a K750i, then the D500 then a Samsung E720 and finally Nokia 3230. The 6230i is the only one i'm 100% happy with.
