My MTN contract is up for renewal, and I need to choose what phone to get.
Right now I'm using a Samsung D600, which I like quite a lot.

I want to get a phone that is very compact, good looking, and with good features (a 2MP camera or better is very important).

At the moment I'm quite happy with getting a Samsung phone, but I'm open to ideas.

Any suggestions?
 
IMO you can't go wrong with SE. Whatever model ur upgrade will get you.

I still love my K750i after a year of very good use.
 
Regardless, I'd rather go for functionality over looks.

If I had to get a phone right now, it would be an HTC MTeoR. Wouldn't call it a brick, it's actually quite slim. Samsung is probably the only manufacturer that still puts and emphasis on camera and looks (which btw is a very outdated design now) and as a result is being left behind while other manufacturers include additional functionalities into their phones.

PS: HJ your K750 is a smartphone of sorts, so you agree that it's an over-rated brick? :p

A smartphone or sphone is any electronic handheld device that integrates the functionality of a mobile phone, personal digital assistant (PDA) or other information appliance. This is often achieved by adding telephone functions to an existing PDA (PDA Phone) or putting "smart" capabilities, such as PDA functions, into a mobile phone. A key feature of a smartphone is that additional native applications can be installed on the device. The applications can be developed by the manufacturer of the handheld device, by the operator or by any other third-party software developer.

Basically integrating mobile phone functionality with PC-like capabilities. Also the operating system's functionality works in much the same way that a PC's OS does for example the ability to multitask and run apps in the background.

The W850i's got a bigger screen, 3G and comes with lots of storage. I'd say the best of the K750 with newer tech. and fresh look.
 
Go for the SonyEricsson flagship phone, my son - the P990i.

There is NO other phone on the market that can compare with it & will be able to in the foreseeable future. ;)

that the one with the touchscreen and the stylus? :sick:
 
Any new Sony Ericsson is great. I have a K750i and I'm very happy with it. :) Also, try to say as far away as anything which even remotely smells like a Samsung. Their software is just horrible. :sick: You've got a D600. You should know what I'm talking about.
