    Well Its that time of year again, My 3230 has finaly served its year,

    What do you recomend?

    Battery and cammera are important. not to fussed about what brand,

    also is there any chance if your recomending a phone you have, that you could host a picture you have taken with the cammera? Just so I can get a general idea at the sort of quality :thumb:

    cheers guys & girls

    Am I missing something? The properties for those images say they were taken with a Nikon e3100.

    Unusual for a nokia owned by a "Canon engineer" :eyebrow:

    What he's saying is that the EXIF data on those two images say they were taken with a Nikon, yet you say they were taken with a Nokia. Also the picture naming convention (DSCNxxxx) is one used by Nikon, not Nokia. Why lie? :eyebrow:

    I have a nokia 6280 and its a really nice phone. Battery lasts about 2 days with medium usage (about 3 hours talktime), but never really had a problem. Pictures are pretty good but camera struggles in un-natural light or nighttime. Can be pretty good though:

    I quite like my W800i, seems to have a pretty resonable camera (although sometimes the colour definition is a little odd) andthe battery lasts me a week on average usage (1 15 min call a day) :)

    I just got my W600i, and I've yet to find a single thing to complain about. Haven't even touched the Walkman features yet, as that's not useful to me at all. However, the camera is decent quality, though it struggles in low-light situations. The interface is quite intuitive, and it's got a nice feel to it. Overall, quite a nice phone :)
