What Cellular Telephone (Mobile) do you own?
 

I recently had to replace my old Nokia 3100 (which I got from a friend because my old phone prior broke). So I bought a new Motorola V3 Razor for $100. It's pretty sweet - I love all the features :) I just need a usb cable, and I'll be able to hook it up to my computer! and I'll get a wireless headset too - it's pretty sweet.

I use my cellphone alot, mainly because I'm out of the house. It's great to be able to reach people when you're on the road (or in the air). I was without a phone for a day before I got my new one, and I was going nuts - most of my day revolves around my phone, from finding out about our current teacher's strike, to trying to secure a plane for my flight to erie tomorrow.

So, what phone do you choose to give you brain cancer?

Nokia 3220.

I demanded it for free when I resigned my two year contract with TMobile. They were really STUBBORN about it, but sometimes, just to make people shut the fuck up when they're trying to close at 9pm, they'll give you what you demand.

I am not really picky about my phone, to be honest. So long as it gets the job done, I don't need fancy features.

Mine's an old Motorola C650. It looks newer and more trendy than it is.

But since I refuse to sign another contract of any kind for service, I don't think I'll be getting a new phone for a long time now, since phones are pretty expensive to buy without signing a contract.

That shit is so old it's even discontinued. Too basic even.

I fucking envy your phone Sass. That looks slick compared to mine. :(

Nokia 6170
http://www.mobiles-actus.com/photos/...kia-6170-3.jpg

I luv collapsible cellphones ='D The only thing that sucks a bit that 1) it doesn't have Bluetooth, 2) there's only 800 kB of free memory O_O

Yay! we're like Cell phone buddies or something. Mine has Gogo, though.

My Old Phone:

Nokia 3390
It's old, crappy model, and hardly any features at all. Oh and the signal it gets is random from time to time. Not only that, the damn thing fell and most of the middle part of the screen went black and caller ID was uselss >_< Crappiest phone evar, I beat u all ><

My new phone:
http://www.topwords.com.ua/Mobilnews...mages/6060.jpg
Nokia 6060-61
Just got it last week. Not the best phone but a MAJOR upgrade from my old one. Has a color screen and everything ^_^


EDIT: Tawnee Stoner, Thats a cool cover ^_^ but all i could notice was your dirty keyboard, mine's almost there too.

I've got the cheapest one you could have gotten at the Verizon store 3 months ago.
A dinky LG VX5200.

http://l8shop.net/xsdbimgs/sam-e530-pink-des.jpg

This sexy little number is my mobly. And the best thing is (besides the fact that it's purple <3) is that i got it completely free. Oh how i love my contract.

http://www.pcoastcom.com/_images/samsung_a540.gif

Meh, its already, but I hate the fact that my ringtones aren't polyphonic. :(

Thats okay, FAG. I have FAYE on mine. And a PIRATE FORTE WALLPAPER. And an SMB RINGTONE.

I bet you can't beat that!

Verizon LG VX7000

http://www.mobilealmanac.com/phones/119.jpg

It can run Doom RPG and Zuma rather nicely, so that's tight. The web browser is pretty suck, but at least I can visit Maddox's website with it. The camera is usable, and has come in handy on multiple occasions, but I can't speak of the quality. The worst part about this phone is that it's a pain to get a MIDI ringtone of my choice on here; I need a straight USB cable and BitPim just to do this. Overall, however, it's a great phone.

currently using a sony ericsson w800i mainly to piss of my sister since she wants it so badly and the fact i needed to get a contract phone to make calls with while away at uni

T-Mobile Razr V3 (I'm sure everyone knows what a Razr is. Everyone and their mother has a Razr now..)

Yeah, because I'm cheap like that. Either way, I got the minutes and everything else for free, so I shouldn't be complaining.

I have a Sony Ericsson T105. It's got the most basic features and I don't really need more than that. Unfortunately this model is overwhelmed with all sorts of software bugs and the battery is extremely low-lifed. Also, about 95% of the time, I get no signal at all.

http://sifyimg.speedera.net/sify.com...ig/se_T105.jpg

I've got a Black V3 Razr. But it's going bye-bye next month for a Razr V3i or a ROKR E2.

I remember when the Razr was exclusive...but like the other posts put, everyone and their mother has one now.

A Nokia 3588i, AKA phone that came with my plan a year and a half ago, as can be seen below:

http://i5.ebayimg.com/03/c/03/07/c5/46_9.JPG

It's better than my first phone, but relatively simplistic. I'm too cheap/don't care about getting a new one.

I got a bit tired of standard flip phones but I also didn't really like the idea of open faced keys on a phone. Perfect solution:

http://img228.imageshack.us/img228/1605/s710a3pj.jpg

Sony Ericsson S710a. Best phone I have ever owned and I could not be happier with it.

I have a highly modded and unbraded Motorola V3 Black. It's about a year old and pretty much scratched and fucked now... but I just love the mods I did to it so I'm not about to change it.

Oh, and locke, you might want to look into motomodders... they are a bunch of V3 hackers. Lots of neat shit you can do with a V3.

A Nokia 6600. Its taken a bit of a battering but I can't complain because it still works like new.

Hehe. So you're a member of MoMo too CileGray? Besides MoMo check out www.motox.info and motorola.howardforums.com. Those are my favorite cell phone related haunts.

This is my phone :D

I've got one of these.

Nokia 6260
http://img45.imageshack.us/img45/7058/62609po.jpg

One of the glitch-iest phone I've ever seen. Totally useless. The text messages' inbox gets wiped out when you turn off the phone.

LG Vx3300.

http://www.feeneywireless.com/produc..._lg_vx3300.jpg

It's alright.

http://www.pcsorders.com/source/phones/lg/pm-225.gif

I love my phone.

Well, I used to have a Sony Ericsson K300, but 2 guys did steal me some days ago. So my Dad gave me his cell phone meanwhile, It's a Nokia 3395 :(

http://cache.gizmodo.com/gadgets/images/tmo_x495.jpg

Mine's it from T-Mobile and so far I'm happy with it. However, I want the Nokia flip with camera capabilites on it. It's like the next one up in prepaid. :)

Samsung T-100. I got mine 4 years ago. I like how even today it's still a decent phone compared to some of the crap the companies are churning out. About a year after I got it I flashed the Firmware and made it a T-108 :D

I also had a little job done to it that made the aerial about 1/4 of it's original size, it's only a stub now, yet my reception is unchanged.

Here's mine. LG VX6100.

http://www.88-cellular.com/lg/vx6100...100_family.jpg

My old cellphone was an LG - an old b/w model, but on my trip to boulder, colorado, I lost the antenna, and had bad reception thus after :(

I recently bought my new phone a few months ago. I hardly use the picture and video function, but it has all other features I was looking for.

http://www.mobilesarcade.co.uk/image...-all-large.jpg

silvervalkyrie... yeah I'm a member over a those places too...

I was basically the 10th person on the net to download the 42fr flash... I have a completely hacked OS, new icons, cl.gif, 96kbps mp3s, 9.5megs of hard drive, and unlocked my factory locked video camera. Oh and the tahoma font hack :P

I have the Virgin Mobile (Kyocera) Slider V5. It was my first cell phone, which I got back in 2004 (Yeah, I was pretty late in getting a phone). It has since been abused, but I still use it. It's not all ghetto'd out. It's been dropped so many times the battery's max life is about half of what it used to be. The battery pack itself doesn't stay latched into the phone anymore, so I keep it in the holder. However, the holster has also got a tear in it, so I patched it up using medical tape. Computer engineering in da house.

http://blog.sanemonkey.com/images/phone-back.jpghttp://blog.sanemonkey.com/images/phone-close.jpghttp://blog.sanemonkey.com/images/phone-open.jpg

I'll get a new one when this thing dies permanently on me.

I don't use cell phones, I think they're rude. I hate talking to someone when their cell phone goes off and I have to act like im not uncomfortable staring off into space while im waiting for them to come back. I have to admit they are damn useful, and I'll have to break my pride and get one eventually.

I have the Samsung model that flips the top portion around at a 180 degree angle horizontally (around a y axis I guess), so that you can fold it down and take pictures with a smaller more compact grip, as well as show off the screen.

Bah, a crappy Samsung c207:
http://img.phonescoop.com/img/p/245/574_1.jpg
It only plays .mmf ringtones and the internet is screwy, but hey -- it was free. And I got two of them, one for my mom and one for me. So I suppose I shouldn't bitch about it.

http://www.newerasound.com/MOTOROLA%20V600.jpg

Motorola v600. I got it 3 years ago so it's dated as hell but it has camera, bluetooth and MP3 ringtones so I'm all set. It works fairly well all around except the volume on receiving calls are a bit low even at the highest volume, but it's not so bad that I haven't been living with it. It's starting to go a bit wonky on me, I may have to replace it soon but I'm going to try to see if it can last me the duration of my college career.

I had this phone for well over a year:

http://helpix.ru/news/200410/251032/e315.jpg

But I got rid of it, mainly because I bought it for my now-kicked-to-the-curb exGF and using it still has a somewhat bitter taste in my mouth. So before I took off from Cali, I had my friend Ahmad hook me up with this little number:

http://t-mobile.com/images/products/...09/250x270.jpg

I fucking <3 this phone. It has a massive screen, Bluetooth and it's a slider. I gotta say: I love the slider more than I ever did the flip-phone format. It's less obtrusive and it leaves more room for a screen.

I find flip phones to be meh. They all look the same, with a few exceptions like the once-was-trendy RAZR. I'd sooner get a slide phone, but honestly candy bar phones are my favorite.

I'm just looking at all the flips in this thread, and I see like no major style difference between them. I'm not the phone fashion police or anything, but don't you guys want something a little more unique? Or perhaps you don't care at all, which is fine too.

I have a Razer V3, but it's not cool anymore since EVERYBODY has one of these fucking things.

Goddammit, my dad AND his girfriend have them.

I wish I could get this awesome Jap phone. It has a nicer digital camera than my digital camera.
http://www.vodafone.jp/japanese/prod...903sh_main.jpg

That's kind of why I got a slider... But meh... MEH, I SAY!

Hmm... well let's see here. I currently own quite a few cell phones.
My main phone that I use is a Nokia 6230:

http://nokia-asia.com/BaseProject/Si...s/6230i_bg.jpg

The phone that I "have" to use at work, a Samsung D357:

http://onlinestorez.cingular.com/cel...msung_d357.jpg

My personal use phone which just about nobody has the number to, Black RAZR. But you all know how that looks like.

I'm hoping to get either the new Samsung ZX-10 or the LG CU320. Both got the new UMTS system on Cingular. Gotta love the almost broadband speed on them.

I used to have a Motorola V551, but I gave that to my dad. He's beat it up quite bad already. ><
http://onlinestorez.cingular.com/cel...orola_v557.jpg

http://www.nokia.co.uk/BaseProject/S...les/pm_n70.gif
Nokia N70.
Also the Grand Daddy of phones. the thing does EVERYTHING it's not even funny.

This is mine, and I love it. SGH-E335
http://www.samsung.com/Products/Mobi...es/e335duo.gif

:) Me too. I think that's one of the reasons I love Motorolas so much; you can hack and edit them to death.

I wanted something unique (that no one in my area would have) and fit me (My favorite colors are Black and Red so much of my wardrobe are those colors) so I got the Black Razr last Summer. For about 3 months I was the only person in my area I ever saw with a Razr let alone a Black one. Then Cingular went all "Razr for 199 w/ contract!" and the rest is history.

God I hate trends...but c'est la vie.

http://mobile.fones4.co.uk/images/so...bile-phone.jpg

Sony Ericsson T610. A fine piece of quality, just enough for calling and sms:ing but still with a colorful interface I like. The camera suck big time, but I don't use phone cameras anyway.

I bought a Cingular Palm Treo 650 about six weeks ago and I love it! The calendar feature is a lifesaver, and the camera takes way better pictures than other phones I've seen.

http://i16.photobucket.com/albums/b4...rland/treo.jpg

I love it because I can make movies, listen to music, watch video clips, and use the net. The only one I don't do is the last because I don't wanna pay for it because im around the internet all day on my PC anyway. I'm addicted to making 3 minute movies whenever there is a fun moment while hanging out with my friends.

Hahahaha that's so damn funny it's the exact same thing for me... except that all the high-rollers at the casino had them a year before me, high-rollers are still cool :P But nowadays I see them for free on tv with 3 year contract...I still have the only hacked one around so screw y'all :P

I've got a Motorola V710. Just found out recently that it could be hacked, so I'm glad I got the firmware updated to current specs for the hacks. :D

But as much as I want to do the hacks, I'm scared to in case something goes wrong.



http://www.mobiledia.com/phones/imag...orola/v710.jpg

Don't fear. As long as the phone was manufactured within a year of your buying it you have a warranty with Motorola. I killed my Razr in September 05 and they replaced it under warranty.

So mod away!

:biggrin:

I'm a tad confused. If I've hacked it, I believe that voids the warranty, no?

Technically, yes. But Motorola is pretty lax about it. I killed my Razr trying to get a test reflash to work. I called Motorola, told them EXACTLY what happened, and they said, "Ok. Just send it to us and we'll fix it. You should have the phone back in two weeks."

What's better is that Motorola couldn't fix my phone and instead sent me a NEW Razr (not refurbished) that still carries a one-year warranty.

Motorola V551 like squirrelishere used to have - the phone is what 2-3 years old now? Crappy resolution on vid and cam but I get trhough life with it. I'm so used to it now - I don't want to change phones...

Oh snap! Wasn't that in The Matrix?

"whoa"


I used to have that. It's nice and all, but the signal was always bad.

Motorola v220

http://www.handy-discount.de/motorola/v220.jpg

I had wanted to get a Razr but apparently they break really easily - and the v4 is due out later this year, so why bother?

I have this one as well. The camera is HORRIBLE, but I didn't get it for that. Otherwise it's an ok phone. Reception seems to be decent, but it likes to unlock itself from time to time.

God, I used to have one of those. I hate that piece of crap.

When you say v4 do you mean the "upgraded" V3 w/ iTunes, etc.?

i got me a razr 2 weeks ago. i love it!! i got it for FREE when i signed a new 2 yr deal w/verizon ($100 off new phone) AND they had a 2 week limited internet sale for another $100 off a new phone.
Razr Phone: Regular price=$199. New contract=$99. New contract and internet sale=$0!!!!!!
It was all comincidence. i didn't go looking for a new razr, but when it didn't cost me a dime, i said why not!

http://www.motorola.com/mot/image/7/7391_MotImage.jpg

The specs for the v4 haven't been announced yet. Yes, it's suppose to have a "MP3 Player / IPod" thing going on like that "upgraded v3" but even that is meerly rumor. All the industry knows is that the v4 is due in Q3/Q4 of 2006

I've a Sony Ericsson S700i. It's a big-ass phone, a bit on the chunky side. To open the thing you've to flip it to the side.

http://www.mobile-phones-uk.org.uk/i...s700i.alt1.gif
http://www.mobile-phones-uk.org.uk/i...s700i.alt2.gif

For text messages, or writing down anything which requires me to use the number-pad I prefer my old Nokia. This is because this Ericsson model of mine has its number-keypad so ingrained into the model that it's a chore for me to type anything out. (Especially because I've naturally large fingers.)

As cool/extensible (storage-wise) as the phone is it can store only 100 text messages. Pathetic. The only redeeming feature of the phone is the camera, which does its job well in most situations except in those places that lack sufficient lighting.

Sounds a alot like the V3i. Which hasn't been released in the US but it available worldwide. From what I know the only other Razr-type phone in Motorola's queue is the HSDPA Razr (supposedly for Cingular) which is a revamped/upgraded version of the V3x.

But if there is a v4 I'd love to see pics/specs of it.

Yeah, my brother's girlfriend wanted the US version of the S700i, the S710a. I like the features on it but I HATE the shize of it combined with the swivel. I'm not a big fan of swivelers but I must admit that the S7x0 series is sexy.

God! That's such an awesome phone! I have a friend who had one before he ran it over with his car. Dumb motherfucker.


That phone is awesome! I bought my godson the W600i a month after his confirmation. At first he got a ROKR, but that thing was so full of bugs that it would crash all the time so we went with the Ericsson. :D

So would I. Apparently, theres a new LG phone due out this week or next week that will allow Cingular users the "push to talk" option like Nextel has. Expect that to go over big.

Bullshit! The Nokia 9300 trumps that shit completely.

http://reviews.zdnet.co.uk/i/z/rv/20...00-400x480.jpg

@ LeHah: Yeah, I was reading up on the new LG PTT phone for Cingular. They're PTT selection (2 phones right now) is paltry at best. Hopefully Motorola will throw something into the mix soon as well.

@ Enceph: The w600i would be nice for me except that whole big-bofy thing that all Ericssons weem to have. And the ROKR is possibly the ugliest, most worthless phone in existance. The SLVR does music phone better and the ROKR E2 will do it even better than the SLVR.

Having used both I prefer the Treo. I'm not used to Nokia phones anymore. :/

Reception has always been fine for me. Rarely do I ever have 2 bars or lower, and I've never had a "bad connection". I haven't gone to cell phone hell yet (my friend's house). No phone has had a good connection if any connection at his house.

I got a Moto 710, only I hadn't done any mods to it. Good phone, but the camera is pure unadulterated garbage.

$99 from the kind folks at Verizon, especially when it was listed at the kiosk for $199.

Sanyo 2300, the only phone Sole Mobile uses. It's an allright phone, it's kinda bulky and seems pretty cheap, but it's actually pretty solid. Has speakerphone and that 10-4 walkie-talkie dealy, call display, free text-messaging, a bunch of stuff. It was only $79 (after rebate) and i gots pay as you go, so that's sweet.

http://ner.pl/im/nokia/6010_2_b.jpg
That's what I have right now, they're really down reliable and resilant(sp). I have dropped this mofo sooo many times and it still works fine.

sadly my motorola V300 broke down. . . I dropped it too many times.

http://images-eu.amazon.com/images/P...2.LZZZZZZZ.jpg

I want my fone back!!

I've been using this Nokia 3660 for 2 years now.

http://www.sotaweek.ru/phones/cat/imgs/nokia3660_1.jpg

Am planning to change units and go with the N70/N91 around June.

http://www.first-handyshop.de/handy/...okia-n70-1.jpg http://www.mobiles-actus.com/photos/...okia-N91-3.jpg

What.. the phone or the Hand of Naz? The Hand of Naz was definitely in The Matrix, but I'm unsure about the phone.

I like the slider concept just because it is different. I'm most definitely intrigued by Encephalon's phone. Plus, I'm all about the Samsung. When I replace my current one, I'm definitely leaning towards this design. We'll see what's new by the end of the year as well.

I have Sony Ericsson T630, a bit old model but it's perfect for me.

http://www.loxley.co.th/homepage6/PR...GES/snT630.jpg

I don't use the camera much, because it's kinda lame excuse for a cellphone camera, pics are too blurry.
It's working great, better than my last two phones, which were Nokia's. Nokia sucks. :D

I have some incarnation of the Audiovox 8615. I use Virgin Mobile since I really don't use the cellphone much.

Motorola Razor and also a prepaid T-Mobile Nokia thing that I pay no attention to.

Mine's a Nokia 6280.

http://img.gsmarena.com/i/pics/nokia/no6280_01.jpg

I got it about a week after it came out as 3 were offering me an upgrade and basically, I'm an utter phone slut.

It's a rather nice phone I think. 2 megapixel camera, memory card, full 3G gubbins (Although it does the internet a bit slower than my old LG did), big old screen and all sorts of other fancy stuff. Also, given that it's a Nokia, it hardly ever crashes...

Edit: Not many Americans seem to have video phones here. Has it not caught on over there yet?

That's because 3G networks are rare here in the United States Shin; only Verizon has a complete 3G network, Sprint has launched their's but it doesn't cover their entire coverage area, and Cingular just launched their 3G network in 10 cities with plans to have over 100 major cities covered by the end of 2006.

As such video calling isn't big in the United States; mostly American phone consumers just want something for text messaging, "cool" ringtones, and maybe a camera for those odd moments they want memories.

Maybe by 2007 we'll be into video calling and what not when 3G is pretty much everywhere but right now people just want cool.

Although Cingular plans to launch the US version of the 6280, the 6282, along with the N80 this year for their 3G UMTS Network. I know my brother is looking forward to the 6282 himself; he's a big Nokia fan.

Actually, it's 16 cities for Cingular. And we're expecting to do video conferencing soon. We hear they're putting some last things together. Our Samsung rep said they are making us a Video conferencing phone. But knowing Cingular, they'll just postpone it even more and we'll see it later by the end of the year or something. At least our Samsung guy lets us in on some stuff.

As for Nokia, the 6282 is already causing a ruccus at my store at least. I'd like to get my hands on one. Also, our Nokia rep said a video conferencing phone is due soon for us as well. Can't wait for that.

I just love the 3G network. Speeds are very nice and love being able to talk and browse web at the same time. Plus, Opera Mini is improving, so that will be a big help for cell phones.

Images go as following from left to right; V180, V80, V551.

When I finally indulged myself into the Motorola world of cell phones I started off with the Motorola V180, which has become my current back up phone. I've had it for over a year and it serves its purpose as a phone and nothing more.

The Motorola v80 was my chirstmas present to myself. I'm currently having problems with it freezing and not turning on but I'm going to be replacing the flex cable eventually to see if I can remedy it. This phone gets a ton of comment. It swivels which was unique until Sony's s710a came out. It's got cool ringlights that are a neat feature to have when your in a loud place such as a bowling alley during cosmic bowling and want to kill some battery life by having your lights move to the music.

I'm currently trial running my friends' Motorola v551 to see if I like it enough to buy it off of him. It's full packed and awesome. The only thing I'm missing is the swivel and ringlights of my old v80.

I can't remember the model #, but I have the Nokia where you can design your own cover designs for it and made a nice Xenogears cover for mine ^_^

I think the feature you're talking about is called "funlights" and the v551 DOES have them. You just have to enable them just like the Razr. Check out motorola.howardforums.com for more information or get up with me on AIM: keirikaze.

Here's my phone:

http://cache.vzw.com/images_b2c/phones/lg/sam_a850.jpg

It's a Samsung SCH-a850.

It's nothing earth shattering, but compared to the last phone I had (a really old kyocera that had no battery life whatesoever) this phone is awesome.

It has a 1.3 megapixel camera, the ability to play mp3s as ringtones(though it sounds kinda tinny so I decided not to), and some other stuff.

I'm not sure if Samsungs can be modded/hacked out at all, though. I'm also not sure if if it's USB compatible (in other words, if I can hook it up to my computer).

My dad ended up getting one of those new Razors. Unfortuantely, he has no idea how to do anything with it. Sigh.

Nokia 3510i

A few years old, but seeing as though I only use it occasionally, I find it's the perfect phone for me. It does what it says on the box.

I have the Motorola Razor V3c from Verizon. I love everything about it except one feature. They have disabled the bluetooth transfer portion of the phone. I can not send my own music or pics to it via bluetooth. I have to download them all and pay verizon for it. Lame IMO.

I have also tried their Motorola tools to try to get around it. It won't let me send pics or music (ring tones) to my phone either.

Beside that. It is a great phone.

The thing is, while it may be able to use funlights.pat; when you see them compared to the V80 it is obvious which is superior. Here's a link to a V80 review which have some pictures of the ring lights in action. Also, I'm an avid hofo member, and know cell phone seeming/modding out my ass. Thank you though.

Those lights are SEX. All other Motorola funlights fail.

My phone is a very functional piece of shit, basically. It's not pretty; it's not ugly. It has a camera. I got it with my policy for 30 bucks total. There's nothing special about it. When it rings, it makes a fucking ringing sound, not some bastardization of a classical piece.

My question is, why the hell would you spend hundreds of dollars on a phone that does basically the same thing mine does, only it's thin and with pretty lights? And people wonder why the rest of the world laughs at Western Culture.

Mine does a lot more than yours, and I got it for cheaper.

Thats my explanation.

Also, some people like stupid, unecessary fancy shit. Its called commercialism. People like to show off their crap. I am sure you're guilty in one way or another too. I know I am.

Here's my phone, the Motorola e815.
The pics are courtesy of my friend asking me what it looked like.

Yeah really. Lucky for me the only thing I paid for my phone was the activation fee.

Kinda like when you are seen in public with Pang?

If I were, I wouldn't be criticizing.

Don't you chase the same girl who has been manipulating you for years? Too dense to keep on keepin' on?

My phone was free and does waaaaaay more than your does. ^_^

You're obviously looking in the wrong shops, dude.

I think mine does a lot of other stupid shit that I don't care about / have never used. Like, I can go shopping online with it or someshit.

I got mine since I work for the company. I hardly use some stuff on my phone, but with the way the technology is going, they'll make you use that little thing you hardly use. I used to use a wired headset for my phone. But now they all break within a month. And since the Bluetooth earpieces have lasted me quite some time now, I use that now. $50 for an earpiece that will last me months is worth more than buying them little wired ones over and over again.

Plus, it doesn't help that many companies make their BASIC phones with cameras and whatnot. I know Cingular makes you get a data package to get phones cheaper, making you use your phone/feature. It's pros and cons. If you're really into just getting a basic answer/end phone, that's really hard nowadays.

That's the phone I have as well (the black one). I have a prepaid plan with mine, which I just got about three months ago. It's my first cell phone, so I have nothing to compare it to, but I like it.

Could it be because you got a shit phone? You poor dear, you.

Double Post:
Get a pre-paid phone. Most of the phones offered by pre-pay providers are bare-bones basic phones. Got a Nokia 1100 that way -- it does nothing but send and receive calls.

True, but most pre-pay phones are "leftover" phones. The one model we got here they stopped making a few months ago. But it's still on prepaid. It's still not too good to go with the barest phone, since most likely it'll give you crap reception half the time. Spend a few dollars more and get a decent reception phone.

Silver and Black Razor

Motorola V60s. Came free with our family plan. I usually have trouble understanding people on it, but I havn't used enough phones to know if that's a general phenomenon. It seems well-built enough.

Motorola V60's, for the most part were crap. Just wondering, do you still got the antenna on your's? I hardly seem them on them phones anymore...

If you can call this stubby little thing an antenna, yeah. I guess they're being built into the flip-portion of the phones now. Come to think of it I havn't seen many lately.

My Nokia 1100 has its antenna built-in. Then there's my v710, which comes with what's possibily the flimsiest antenna ever made.

NOTE: My camera's outer bevel fell off today. Yay.

I've got a Nokia 3310, and I think my girlfriend's got a Sony Ericsson T105... something like that.

I like how I just got Ace Combat 5 ringtones on my cellphone. Is this even real.

::"The Unsung War" plays::

::Earth explodes::

:lolsign: So sad.

I had a 3588i, a phone that could double as a road flare (yep, it was that bright). The fact that it lit up like a Christmas tree did no favors for the battery time.

Also had a 5190, a phone that Superman himself could fling into orbit, watch it come back during reentry and still make a call from it.

I've got a Motorola T720 with service through Alltel. I've never had any problems with Alltel over the what, 6 years I've had a contract with 'em.

The T720's a nice cell phone, nothing spectacular though. Doesn't have a camera but then again I don't need one at all. Camera phones are lame.

I did enable the funlight.pat for my v551 that CapturedPenguin is borrowing thank you very much. Plus I can change my status light to be orange,red, or green in the setup menu, downside to that is that the phone only has a blue light...lol

I'm using the ROKR/E1 til the E2 comes out

http://koti.mbnet.fi/bodomi/2300.jpg

Nokia 2300.
Old and ugly, but it does what I need it to do.

Although I might need to replace it soon, it has started to eat the battery like crazy. I have to recharge it every day. And it is not a problem with the battery, it does it with new ones as well. :/

LMAO. My fault for trying to be helpful. :D

Yeah, the E2 is looking really good right now. It was supposed to be out march 1st but still isn't here. Hopefully it'll be available before May.

Ive got a N70 nokia cellphone =P christmas present cuz my mum broke my 6600 xDDD

Razr V3. Wish I never got the damn thing, overrated piece of crap with shitty reception. Plus too many people have it. Might just be T-Mobile though. And the mods are overrated.

Yes! I was able to transfer any mp3 or midi from my computer onto my phone and make them ringtones. Each of my friends has a diff ringtone now.

http://www.letstalk.com/img/prod/100/502/26818_pdi.gif

One of these. Pretty sweet phone, except it froze twice.

I should mention I won it in a raffle. Microsoft presentation in my uni.

I don't see why everyone likes the Razr. Like Jason said, everyone has them so that kinda sucks. But what I really don't like about them are the buttons and the size of the phone. The buttons are a little awkward to me and while the phone IS thin, it's just way too big. They made abig deal about it being really thin, but if it's really wide then what's the point?

Before "Everyone" had them it was a phone that was unique and very exclusive. Add to that it bucked the trend of thick, ugly clamshells. I don't mind the fact that it's wide; it fits in the "key" pocket of my skate jeans and that means the world to me - my v220 and every other phone fits but they bulge outward like a wierd bump. The Razr is damn near invisible in my pocket - and I like that too. Add the fact it's light and I barely know it's there unlike other cells.

Despite that I'll be the first to admit the feature set is a bit limited compared to ther phones. Then again most people seem to see the Razr today and consider it "not enough for the money" without realizing the phone is 2 yrs old and as such phones released recently (within the last 6~7 months +/-) should have better specs. The phone didn't really hit market mass in the US until Cingular's shock and awe marketing of the "Special Edition" Black Razr. But then again, I didn't get it because it was "the" phone - I got it because it fit me.

That's what got me. And that's why I still have it. If I wanted features at the cost of what I consider "portability" I'd get a PDA/smartphone.

I have the LG phone you get for free when you resign your contract with Cingular. I get MediaNet, Instant Messanging, and it is a camera phone. Much nicer than other phone I had.

I want a Motorola SLVR, but I don't see me getting one in the near future.

I've never seen that phone. Even though it's old, I fucking LOVE that number pad layout... They look like butterflies. :D

samsung sch-a950, the "mp3 phone" (but it really only plays wma files!)

I have recently abandoned Nokia phones and have switched to Samsung.

The Samsung Z-140 to be exact.

http://www.handys-mobile.de/img/samsung_sgh_z140.jpg

I just got a new phone yesterday, the Sony Ericsson Z520i.

http://www.mobique.com/_images/sonye...le_opening.jpg

I find it very beautiful for some reason. Got obsessed by it the first time I saw it, I've always wanted a "clamshell"-type phone, and now I've got my first :)

(Previous phone: Sony Ericsson T610)

I'm not sure what it is, but it's an NEC model of some variety. I *hate* phones, so I only use it when I'm travelling... It's nothing special. It's got a 0.6 megapixel camera, no bluetooth and it feels like cheap plastic.

I've always wondered about the NEC's, never tried one myself. How are they in general, do you have any experience? Aren't they kinda 3G-exclusive?

Nokia 6061
Not the best, but it gets the job done.

SEX.

So my new Motorola RAZR V3x came today and so far I am LOVING IT :edgarrock:

lots of pics and stuff

I still haven't managed to re-encode any of my videos so that they're playable on the phone yet, but I probably will eventually. =D

Hell, I got the best cell phone in the entire universe. (Except from the Moon. They got some neat stuff there...)

What phone do you say?
Look:

Well technically wouldn't an N-Gage QD be better ?_? Heh, I personally dislike them, but if that's your thing, then go you =D

My phone is a Sony Ericsson T230 blue and silver and it's very basic. The camera sucks, it's hard not to take a picture and figure out what it is actually of. I only use the phone for basic purposes, and so it does the job for me. Has crashed on me a few times before though.

Mine is Nokia 6630 but I'm planning to swap it ang get some N-Series.

Sony Ericsson K750i

http://sony-ericsson.novymobil.cz/cn...50i--s-600.jpg

Fairly decent phone. Can't say much about it's durability though...8 months old and the camera doesn't work now. Hasn't even been dropped.

T-Mobile service, from my previous use, is horrible! My RAZR is great and it has good reception.

I actually just snagged myself a Motorola ROKR.

http://i41.photobucket.com/albums/e2...nk/ROKR-E1.jpg

I got it for free and having had it a week, I gotta say that it's probably the best Motorola phone I've ever had, but as an MP3 player (which is basically all it was really advertised to do) it's pretty horrible.

It takes forever (read: about 45 mins) to Autofill the phone on my G4 and the quality of the music is mediocre since iTunes insists on reducing the sound quality in order to fit more songs on the phone. This, of course, means nothing because even if you have a 512 mb TransFlash card in your phone (which I do have) it only lets you fit 100 songs on it, thus negating the purpose of having purchased said storage space.

Other than that, it's a pretty dope phone. Now if only I could get it to play music I import into it as ringtones, it would be even cooler. :p

Sony Ericsson W800i. Was buying it mainly to listen to music, but then i went ahead an bought an ipod too and it was already to late to return the phone.

Motorola V3 Razr...it seems that everyone has or had this phone at some point...but it's reliable....and pretty damn sexy if I might add hehe

I recently got a free cingular Razr for free, completely by accident.
I like it quite a bit, particularly the calendar; I haven't missed an appointment in a long time since using it.

Motorola V186 Much Music Edition:
http://www.shoprogers.com/images/mot...mm_130x251.gif
This is my beastly beast phone. It doesn't have a camera or blue tooth but I don't mind seeing as I have no use for either. BUT I really love how it's pretty small and feels compact, The downside is the screen could be a bit bigger. Meh who cares, Doom RPG = Ownage.

To the people that have bought motorolas i commend u, they are long lasting phones. Though I have just traded mine in for a sony erricson w800i that is great. but please nobody buy it if u are looking for some decent software to transfer ur files because sony are abismal at creating software!!! just get a memory card reader and drag and drop otherwise u will experience alot of problems! otherwise...this phone is amazing looking and has amazing features including a great 2 megapixel night vision camera with extra options like panoramic shots and negative mode. hell this is just an amazing piece of tech. though still sony's software is appalling and should be shot in the back

I <3 My Mobile Phone!
 

This thread is dedicated to your Mobile Phones. I'm sure you all have or had one in your life. When was the time when father told you: Son/daughter it's time for you to get a Mobile Phone! What was the is like? Was it Nokia, Motorola or other?

For what do you use it? Talking, SMS only or camera and games? Do you treat it with care or just throw it every time you can. Our mobile phone tells a lot about our selves.

Nokia 6310i - it's what I have. It's quite old mobile with monochromatic screen but with many tools that new phones don't have like IR or Bluetooth. As for my ring tone I have simple *Ring Ring* cause all those Mono tunes are getting on my nerves.

I have an ancient Sony Ericsson T226. I really don't remember how long I've had it, but it's been at least 3-4 years. I mainly use it for text messaging. For my ringtone, I usually have MIDI versions of random songs from the Final Fantasy Piano collections (I'm a nerd :D ). Right now, I have "Those Who Fight" from the FF7PC.

Going to merge this new thread with the old mobile phone one.

Actually, everyone in my family except for me has a cell phone. Ironically, there are a few spots where the nation-wide coverage doesn't work and it seems as though the county that I attend college is one of the only spots that it doesn't cover (but all the surrounding counties have it). Tracphones won't work in my region either. I can't remember their first cell phones, but I think the kind they have now are white Kyroceras.

Their phones have backgrounds, personalized ringtones that include actual recordings from bands, voicemail, and my siblings can take pictures with their cameras. My brother used to pay for sending pictures and text messages, but it became too expensive. On my dad's old cell phone, he could play games like "Snake" and the one were you can shoot meteors.
