    List of 3g Mobiles

    Looking for a list of mobile phones with 3G

    Can't really decide what phone to get, new or used.

    I thought if i can find a list of phones i can start looking for them.

    Budget isn't a lot £200 max.

    I've seen a 30 day contract sim on o2 that looks nice, so an o2 phone would be great.

    Maybe he is after a specific frequency band or is 3G something different?

    Note: I am no phone guru..infact quite the opposite, a dunce but checked up on banding due to taking phones abroad.

    You would be surprised how many phones being sold by the mobile companies that don't support 3G.

    I think the simple fact is, the more features they add the more features they have to remove to keep production costs down and profits up.

    I'm semi decided on a used Jet or Tocco Ultra, both can be purchased for around £100 2nd hand and both seem to be great phones, which i intend to use with a 30 day contract sim.

    Re: List of 3g Mobiles

    Would it be better to attack it from the angle of finding a phone you like and then seeing if it has 3G?

    The Tocco, my sister had/has that...not the ultra just normal and considering how quickly she dumped it for a Blackberry (something) I'd say she either missed a keypad/keyboard, touch screen annoying or something. Have a play with the Ultra in a shop and see if you like it.

    Is there anything else specific you want from your phone?

    3G, 5MP Camera and Touchscreen would be nice Hence the Tocco Ultra (which i've played with already, and the Jet) If you have more ideas i'm all ears

    I bought a Jet 2nd hand for £100, just got to wait for it to turn up to see if its factory unlocked for my O2 sim

    After using my mums Samsung Tocco Ultra, never again will I go for Samsung. The ONLY good thing on it was the camera. It took really decent pictures. The UI though was total pants. Hopefully your Jet will be better though.

    I've come from using a real old and low end Nokia that managed voice calls, but texting was a pain, to a touchscreen phone so really anything would have been better so i'm enjoying it so far.

    The only downfall is, the PC Studio Software doesn't run on Win 7 64 bit, some sort of compatibility issue that hasn't been addressed yet, been on the official forums and they are waiting for an updated version to be released. But i can transfer with Bluetooth or Wifi so no big deal.
