    1.3mpx camera... mmc card slot (officially 512, unofficially 2gb)
    mp3 player and a stunning 208x208 hi rez TFT screen
    it does everything the SE offering does, but faster.

    Ive used virtually all makes of phone in my time and the Nokia's are by far the easiest, simplest and quickest phones to use, their interface is second to none and I wouldn't even look at another brand now cos there all a bloody nightmare to use in some aspect.
    Nokias any day...

    I'd say that the 6230i would be my first choice. Decent camera, expandable memory, high resolution screen and it's small. I've always liked Nokia's UI design too.

    Second choice would be the D500. It's almost identical to the E720 in terms of features, but I prefer the slider design of the D500. Both very solid phones.

    SE K700i is looking a bit old now so it would be my bottom choice out of the phones listed. It's being replaced in the next month or so by the K750i though, which looks like a winner.

    I was originally looking at the 6230i before I got my P910i, I was thinking the SE again this time as I have the BT Headset, dock port and other bits, still, like the 6230's size and features always had Nokia's before this 910 so know my way aroudn them n stuff...
    Will leave this up for a few days then sort which one

    ok ok, fair enough i was only trying to help and offer you an alterantive that's very simular but kicks those phones into touch. Just thought you might not have seen it.

    Not quite out yet, but the k750i will be free on £30+ contracts. It has the best 2mp camera and MP3 player (with support up to 4 gigs) bar none. It's going to be the one of the hotest models this year. It's also small and made of black gunmetal and has a good 3d games engine.

    Personally, I think the 6230i is looking a bit old as the 6230 has been out of over a year now. The 6230 had a trully awful MP3 player, but the 6230i may have an improved software. The pictues on the samsungs are poor compared to other phone's with the same resolution camera. and the menu system is not very good either. The k700i has not got a megapixel camera or an MP3 player either. But I guess it all depends on what you want from a phone.

    But if that's you only choice, i would probably go with the 6230i (even if it looks a bit dated) or the D500 in second place.

    Only trying to help!

    Dont worry dom I wasnt having a go, hence the and the
    And FYI my next phone will prolly be a K750 anyways as the P910i I have is pretty much over kill, so, I'll get a free fone now, sell it on eBay, then when I get my new contract around xmas time I'll get a K750i or similar at the time and then eBay the P910i....

    Spose the question should of been which of these phones has the highest resale value lol...

    The 6230i is the newest on that list. It's only just been released, so I'm sure that prices for it on ebay are silly at the moment.

    E720 is probably worth a bit too, for the same reason.

    Having a look on GSMMobiles.com:

    Nokia 6230i = £250
    Samsung D500 = £260
    Sony Ericsson K700i = £185

    The Samsung E720 isn't listed.

    A man after my own heart I just sold a 12 month old 6230 on ebay for £150, which was free to me a yrear ago. That paid for my voice/data calls that went over my monthly fee for the year.

    The d500 seems to be in high demand, but i think it's overrated. But then if thats what the eBay chavs want then it might be worth it.

    You probably know this, but do an 'advanced search' on ebay with the 'completed items only' option on to see what each model has been selling for.

    Edit : I'm silly!


    Looks -> D500
    Resale -> D500
    Ease -> 6230i
    Expandability -> 6230i


    Thus a tie between the 2 , I voted D500 cos I'd quite like one, but feature wise there almost identical, 6230i has a memory expansion slot, where the D500 is sexier
