Ok so I looked at www.phonescoop.com came up with 5 potential phones that i'd like. Please give your honest opinion if you have heard good/bad things about any of these phones please let me know. Picking out phones is like picking out shoes for me....it takes forever unless I get some advice so lol i'm asking for your advice. Any info will help. I have Cingular so these are all Cingular phones. My requirements for the phones include these MUST haves: camera, mp3, speakerphone, bluetooth, picture id and ringer id (BB is only one without this). Does anyone have any of these phones? please give me your input if you do. Thanks!

1)Sony Ericsson W810
2)Samsung Blackjack
3)Samsung Sync
4)BlackBerry 8100 Pearl
5)Nokia 6126

please help..... lolz

 

samsung's have been the best phones to me. they have nice features and look amazing , some of their menu lists and such are completely dumb but it is a very nice phone. I LOVE the blackjack but I don;t have a need for it.

I voted for blackjack.

 

Blackberry Pearl. Best phone ever.

 

I have the Sync. It's my first non Motorola cell, but my old Razr forced me to another vendor.

I really like the Sync, I'm still getting used to the Samsung menus and whatnot, and the text stuff isn't quite as straight forward as a Moto, but it's still functional.

What sold it for me was the 2 megapixel camera. It's nice to not have to carry my Canon around and know that I can still take decent shots for the rice n' taters thread.
The music player hasn't and will never get used (it only supports windows, and I have a mac) but I have an ipod anyway, so that's moot.

The screen is nice, big and clear (even in the sun) and the call quality is nice.

Overall, I'm happy with it, and it's only slightly bigger than a Razr for a comparison.

 

Blackberry 8800.
Apple iPhone.

 

I was going to get the Blackjack but decided to wait for the iPhone

 

iPhone will kick BlackJack's *ss.
If you're a corporate user, a Blackberry is prolly a better choice though for reading Office docs, etc.
I can't wait for the iPhone - I will likely leave my Blackberry at home from then on...

 

I love my bb pearl. Plus, it DOES have picture and ringer ID.

The best features? Auto locking when it is in a case and the light sensitive screen that automatically adjust the brightness. Download opera mini and you are good to go! How do you think I check and post on SL?

Flaws? It has the vibrate first then ring feature, or either or separately. Can't do ring and vibrate at the same time... It's practical for business meetings. More of a pet peeve than a flaw. Secondly, you can only take pictures and NOT videos.

So far, the BB pearl is the most satisfying phone I've ever had. It's fast and ampat never crashes.

Phones I've had:

Nokia 3390
Nokia 8910
Nokia 8890
Sony ericsson t600? The black one with the joystick and camera
Samsung flip with oled clock and color flip and cam
Moto razr (worst phone I've ever had)
Samsung D500
Htc/tmo MDA
BB pearl

 

And the BB is the PERFECT size. It actually feels like a phone, rather than a slice of toast.

 

i really like those 900series walkman phones, but i'm an orange fan and love the storage capacity, plus who do you know who's got one?

 

i voted for the pearl
i love my bb pearl. you can get the blackberry email or you can register your regular emails onto the phone. Like i get my yahoo email, my blackberry email, and the group sdg email on my phone without even having to check it on the computer. It takes good pics, and its really nice looking. I used to have the sidekick II and thought i wouldnt love any other phone as much as i did that one lol. But then i got the pearl and it has everything i need on it, including QWERTY keyboard (im qwerty obsessed, if my phone dont have it then i dont want it). I love it. It also has a blackberry messenger on it to talk with other pearl ppls.
i dunno about the blackjack but my friend has one.

If anything i say go for the blackberry pearl or the blackjack...but i say pearl

 

I love samsung products. If I had to buy a phone phone, I'd get a samsung. Their menus and OS are very stable. Unfortunately, the blackjack is windows based.

Does anyone here actually LIKE windows? No! But we deal with it because we have no choice. Windows mobile? Imagine the stability of windows ME cut in half. Crash city! And windows mobile is set to be obsolete with the release of the new version. We ALL know how great Microsoft is at supporting out-dated software, LOL. Blackberry and palm both make great pda software. Blackberry software is not as feature rich as windows or even palm, but it is the most stable, IMO.

 

Samsungs last for like ever, so that is a plus. My friend has the BB and it is pretty sweet. I personally don't like candy bar phones. I love the Sony bc it looks cool, but if since most of the other choices are practically computers I would have to tell you to get the BB.

I have a Moto V3i in blue ... I mean, it feels really cool being the only person having it AND it is pretty and if I forget my iPod, I have that! :D

 

I LOVE windows.

 

Hence, the avatar.

 

After working in IT for so long, I've become a linux concert. For free stuff and apps, windows rocks. But stability and security wise, it's a nightmare.

 

Ive sold my soul to the Treo, but the iPhone will indeed dominate, but the Blackberry Pearl is ok. I guess...

 

You already know what've I've talked to you about. Didn't know you were also interested in the 810. Honestly if you go for the full package the BB Pearl will do it. Email/MP3/1.3MP Camera/Photo & Ringer ID. Plus a nice big screen if you are running Opera Mini for the internet.

 

I would wait for the iPhone. The phone will be awesome. In addition, it will work perfectly with Cingular. Call me when you get it.
Here is some information on the iPhone - http://www.apple.com/iphone/
