howdies all,
have a budget of about 200 quid for a phone and have picked a few out, but after a few personal opinions about them and what there like to use - and what the camera pic quality is like etc (and yes ill pop into my local link etc to test them out myself etc )
6600
6230
K700i/K500
LG U8120
T610/T630
Moto E398
just a rough list of ones i have seen and like, but upgrading from a 5510, so anything with a colour screen is a bonus 
tar all,
Dom

yea does look good, but what they like to use? 
ive been thinking about getting a 6600, always liked them since they came out, but just wondering if there is a better phone (better camera etc) for similar money

Ordered a K700i last night.
Pretty tidy looking phone with decent features and hopefully pretty rugged, decided against another flip phone after my p400 ended up in two pieces

cheers all 
not really after a flip phone coz i have butter fingers sometimes, and although my current 5510 hasnt had any major drop/bangs etc, it has suffered from the usual knocks and cracked case and im worried that a flip phone with get ripped in two 
munchie - yea the 7610 looks like a bloody brick and i want to get away from my brick of a 5510. But i have had a play on my mates and i was impressed but i dunno whether i want something that bulky again 
matt h / karma - yea, thats roughly the prices i have been seeing with those phones Although i never knew nokia had stopped production on the 6600 But whats the piccy quality like with the 6600? i have only seen pics on the phone and never any being uploaded to a pc etc
corsaDave - yea the K700i looks the muts. And a few posts on CS have cropped saying how good they are etc Seems to offer similar features to that of the nokia 6600/6230. Again, whats the cam quality like? can you change memory on it via MMC cards etc? or is it fixed?
it seems to be a toss up between the K700i, 6230 and 6600 - all seem to be bloody good phones and offer great features, although the 6600 does offer the symbian OS which seems to be a right giggle for pee'ing about with 
oh wells, cheers for anwsering all Obviously if anyone else has experience with either of the phones said then please post 
tar,
Dom

I got my Nokia 6230 SIM free from the Carphone Warehouse for £249.99 - I know I could have probably got it cheaper online or whatever but I couldn't be arsed waiting for it to be delivered; wanted it there and then!
