IM DUE AN UPGRADE THIS MONTH AFTER HAVING MY MUCH LOVED K800I FOR 18 MONTHS. ITS A GREAT PHONE!

I REALLY FANCIED GETTING THE NEW W960 BUT HAV READ A FEW REVIEWS SLATING IT...... BUT I STILL FIND MYSELF DRAWN TO IT.

I ALSO LIKE THE IDEAI KNOW YOU'VE ALL PROBABLY HEARD AND ANSWERED THIS QUESTION MANY TIMES EVERYONE BUT HERE GOES.

I OF THE N95 8GB BUT HAV HEARD HORROR STORIES OF BATTERY LIFE BEING POOR AND SEEING AS I TEXT AND CALL ALL DAY THIS WORRIES ME A BIT.

AFTER THE K800I I THEN THOUGHT MAYBE THE K850I MAY BE THE BEST OPTION AS ITS BASICALLY AN UPGRADED K800I........BUT I REALLY WANT A BIGGER SCREEN SO I CAN WATCH MOVIES.

I'M CURRENTLY ON VODAFONE AND LIKE BEING WITH THEM AS THE SIGNAL IS ALWAYS AMAZING.

ANY ADVICE WOULD BE MUCH APPRECIATED!

No need to shout.

I would run away from the k850 as fast as you can, my friend had two, both had the same fault, and she ended up getting the nokia n82 cos she got so fed up.
 
yeah the viewty is another option..... i just dont want to get stuck in a 18 month contract with a phone that...... so ill hang on and see what u guys come back and say?
 
its looking like the N95 8GB is looking favourite after reading all the feedback. sounds like they've improved a lot on the original i.e build quality and battery life. does this sound correct?
 
I've just got a Viewty to replace my P990, must say I'm very impressed so far, it's a really nice phone.
 
Yeah the viewty keeps cropping up and people sound very impressed with it? :confused:

Yep, I was very surprised first time I used one, it's a really nice phone to use. Quite like the iphone in function (although without the large inbuilt storage and the requirement to use Itunes), but has 3G, 3G+ and edge, nice web browser, good call quality, good camera and so on.

It's worth a look at least if you're after a fully featured new phone, unless you absolutely need the ability to run additional, non-java programs on the handset (but then, the same applies to the K850i)
 
Hmmm i guess its definately between the viewty and the N95 8GB now then.

Whats the main differences between them both?

Pros and cons?
 
Ones touch screen. The other isnt.
Thats the main one. :p.

From what ive heard of the LG, both are excellent choices.
I'd personally pick the N95-8Gb though.
 
Xperia looks pretty cool. Very little information about exactly how it all works yet though! Definitely one to add to the list of phones to replace mine come the summer time.
