Im sure there probably has been threads like this before and i do appologise.

Im looking for a new phone as my 4th replacement samsung steel has just broken (not to negligence, they all broke from manufacturing faults ... and they are really shit)

anyone got any good ideas?

(p.s im from scotland so non uk phones are out the window )

thanks.

Try a Nokia XPress Music 5310 [http://shop.nokia.co.uk/nokia-uk/product.aspx?sku=3757256&culture=en-GB&cp=shophome&product=5310_xpressmusic_dropdown#__anchor_ProductSelector] (Picture [http://www.marceloeduardo.com/blog/wp-content/uploads/2007/10/5310-xpressmusic-2-270x473.jpg]). They're pretty durable and are good for music if that's your thing. The camera's pretty decent too.
I've had mine for nearly a year now and only needed it repaired when I dropped it 10 feet onto concrete.

Anything but a Tocco. It's far and away the most useless phone I've ever had. Same goes for the Tocco Ultra and Tocco Jet - although I don't have first-hand experience of them, my brother has, he just got rid of the Jet after less than a week. Basically, just avoid Samsung entirely.

Thankfully I get to upgrade my phone in just over a week, so I'll probably be getting the HTC Magic or Nokia 5800... though to be honest I'd prefer something with buttons rather than a touch-screen.

That's my phone! It is really good for music, I don't really use it for much else...

In my experience, Nokia builds the most durable phones. I threw one across the room into a brick wall and it still worked. By comparison, this Samsung piece of crap I have now feels cheap. I hope I don't drop it.

Lol yeah I've only had my Samsung Steel for 2 months and I've already had to send it off once. They're not too good

 

[FallenRainbows]

Iphone/Ipod's are invisible. No really, the crap mine goes trough is insane.

I have a Samsung Rugby.... I drop my phone alot, hasn't broke once.

Anyway, sorry, on topic: I have an INQ1 with 3. Its £15 a month n I get 4000 txts and 200min and completely free internet and msn. It's my favorite phone yet.

I use mu nokia 3330 as a hammer and a can opener. It's 7 years old and still fully functional.

I would buy Nokia N97, but it cost quite alot..
Im currently having a Samsung omnia, pretty good accualy but it can be a pain in arse to find a special person in the phonebook without searching for its name cause it "move" like 4-5 contacts each second

 

[vxicepickxv]

Funny, the Samsung I have is pretty much indestructible. It's survived a rapid depressurization, a 20 foot drop off of a house, 3 minutes in a pool without shutting off, and then all of the regular stupid stuff normal people do to phones.

so you have a phone that you use for music,but not calling?whatever man,at this point it's better than what most people use their phones for.

OT:I don't have a cell,I just use a home phone (and by use I mean never really call anyone)

It would seem Oblivious has you covered though
