Lost the back off my k750i and so had to change. Long story but ended up next day (thursday) in 02 more dramas with the business account really threw teddy in corner but shop sorted it. Chris (shop assist) wouldnt let me near the phone bless him.

Anyhow saw and liked the Nokia 5800 all was well but the camera was not good. Then l found it did not hold the settings. So spend hours on the internet cross referencing all the 02 handsets they sold.

Had to take Nokia 5800 back friday. Shame l loved the phone. They did not have the F400 or Viewty both said for sale but he said not been in for months as to many problems. SO l got the samsung soul. Did my head in trying to set it up and the predictive text is awful so trying to learn the other way. Camera seems excellent and has cover. Not set up music yet BUT the radio is very quiet a worry as l use it a lot. May be the head set as plays ok on speaker? At moment it is recharging. I spent 3 hours today trying to change my phone book over gave up and wrote in every phone number and name again it was not letting me edit to phone or god knows what l got so confused.

Anyhow l may stick with the samsung soul just the radio l want to sort. and see how it sounds on music on the mp3 and how photos look transfered oh and how long battery lasts.

Just been into the local 02 shop as opposed to the other one with easy car parking. And blew my stack. We have had nothing but problems sorting out the business contract since july last year! Today l found they still had us on a 12month l blew up. When sorted they have promised to sort out credits and get it done. The local shop has always been good it is the business side. Anyway the lass in the shop l told her if they (02 business that we can only reach via phone) do not sort it this time l will be very angry. I actually saw her turn pale l didn't think l had been as bad as that but apparently my angry was scary my very angry is not to be wanted.

In 07 when l went self employed l discovered that when o2 bought BT they had dropped me so l showed on 02 system but paid BT so couldnt get an upgrade phone despite being due.

I went sim card only and that was a load of hassle to get that sorted then it was more or less ok.

Hub and l went ltd company last july time and this will now be the 2nd credit after they messed up and put both phones on separate accounts.

They also "forgot" to put us on a 24mth contract which was a lot cheaper. So thats todays credit to come through.

And after they fix the 02 network which has gone down in lancashire (if anyone from 02 has problems today) I need to double check some other items with hub and may be melting phone lines again.

I've had no probs with my Motorola, it's coming up 2 years since I bought it! The camera is very good too. I've dropped it a few times too

l use this the most, the only thing is it does not cover all phones but if you click on the header i.e. Samsung then it will give you everything they have reviewed of that maker.
If you just use the list of phones under each name it will just give you those.

[quote user="Caro Laithwaite"]

I am worried about touch screen, never had them and hub's (sony E.) is a nightmare if he touches his ear when talking it switches screens. And heard about bad locks on them in pockets etc. how good is the phone lock?

Not dismissing any choice till l finally get a phone.

phone lock is PERFECT, had no accidental calls etc.

I've had heaps of phones as im useless with them, sony ericssons, nokia, motorola, etc etc

and this LG is the best ever when i bought it i was a bit dubious about how long it would last with the touch screen but 18months on and its still better than my friends "normal" phones

I love it, definately recommend it 100%

yup Haley l had been reading about the 907 902 and 905 I wanted each one before they came out but user reviews hit and they are a heap of trouble.

Haley Thomas — Mon, 16 Feb 2009 18:19:06 GMT

try and stay clear of the sony ericsson c905!! I have got that one and three things went wrong all at the same time (4 button didnt work, stopped telling me i had text messages and camera slide getting stuck) sent me a replacement and the arrow keys are sticking and the cancel button doesnt work!!!! Great camera but crap as a phone!!

Worst choice I have made so far and normally im pretty good!!

I have a Samsung G600 - I haven't found any problems at all with it but I am a bit paranoid of scratching the screen! I think that might say more about me than the phone though!

I also have it on O2, bought it off their website with no problems. Good luck, I am otherwise useless I'm afraid!

I use an LG Viewty (touch screen) had it about 18months and its been dropped in the bath several times. dropped several times also and still works. touch screen is very very easy to use (i can use it = fool proof) 5megapixel camera is brilliant

G600 Samsung is also good .. this is doing my head in nearly 5 months choosing a phone. I was only due upgrade mid december to be fair but even so l HAVE to choose soon.
