Which mobile phone do you use?

[Mr. Kurns]

I've got an LG Webslider KS360.
Full QWERTY keyboard and what not.

I am looking for a new phone (got my first salary from a part time work and might soon get a full time job:banana2). Here are my specifications

Absolutely Essential
3MP or more camera (right now, I have 2MP)
MP3 support (ringtones, playing music).
Fullscreen contact image support while getting a call
USA 3G support
Good call and sound quality (hearing lots of negatives on iPhone's call quality)
Not too huge or bulky (No blackberry!)

Things that would be a plus
Wi-Fi
touchscreen

Do you guys have any suggestion? I have four phones on my wish list right now (Apple iPhone, Sony Ericsson C905a, Samsung Eternity, Nokia Xpress Music 5800) but if there are other choices, would like to look into them.

AT&T. But I heard that lot of people are having calls getting dropped/poor call quality with their iPhones. Is that true? Read reviews abt the iPhone while searching on Google and so I am concerned about it because I am not that happy with the call quality of my current SE W580i and I dont want to get a worser experience. I have the itouch and so I have experienced the major attractions of the iPhone and all I am concerned about on the iPhone is its phone feature (ie. call and sound quality).

My friends with iPhones have had great experiences so far.

I know of one or two people too who havent complained yet. Yet to make up my mind. Anyways, thanks for the suggestion(s).

Is the Omnia available for US markets (or can it be used in the US)? Anyone tried it? I love the look and the features of the Omnia.

Omnia is available in US market. The Omnia 1 as I said costs just 50$ if and please send me 10 of these too.

iPhone is not recommended for US market with 30% call drops as told by Apple insider.

I will say wait it bit more and you can get Nokia E72 which will have everything except touch screen. And frankly writing with touch screen can be pain.

@ sid: The features look really nice. Only problem is it looks like a blackberry (the width; which turns me off a little).

Not too sure as I don't live there but I've sure read on countless articles that AT & T's 3G coverage sucks in a LOT of areas.

Get Omnia 2 then or Omnia HD. I have HD model but cannot wait for new 12MP camera.

 

[ste_mc_efc]

I have no idea what model my phone is. All I know is that it says samsung on it, i've had it for a fair few years and the battery is only kept in place by sticky tape.

Stupid yuppies being proud of having the latest superfluous piece of technology.

It's not bad. I think Sai lives in a bigger city, you should get 3G there.

If you're looking at switching, try one of the Android models. The HTC Hero is an AWESOME phone on Sprint, really great features and a Google environment.

Live syncing of contacts, GTalk, Calendar, email, etc. I have a T-Mobile G1 (a similar phone) and i'm enjoying it.

Not as big a city. I live in Cincinnati, OH. Its not as big as Dallas, Boston, Chicago, Mineapolis, etc. Its actually the second biggest city in Ohio (Columbus is the biggest one here; Ohio State University).

Yeah, the Omnia attracts me a lot. Looks really cool. Most probably the Omnia 2, iPhone or the Nokia Xpress 5800.
