I like my V3 but its time for an upgrade.

Was thinking V3x to get Eurosport (Tour de france) on my phone over the summer. The bloke on the phone said they are shite and offered me a sony ericsson V600i

Anyone recommend (or otherwise) the sony?

I'd rather go on the advise of users than a salesman whose eyes I cannae see!

cheers folks

Insist on a K750i , the V600i is a cheaper version with poor memory etc (not as poor as a V3 mind)

I just got a V3 in January on my Orange contract and it's given me nothing but bloody trouble. It keeps turning itself off and restarting and saying "Check SIM" or "Insert SIM". Sometimes it doesn't even tell me there is a problem and people who are trying to contact me can't. Wish I hadn't "upgraded" at all, sometimes.

I've got a v608i which is pretty much the same as the v600i I think. I've not had any problems with it, the video stuff works well and the battery life is good, it's also a nice looking phone and is pretty small for a 3G.

Found it okay but it has an annoyingly low volume when it's ringing. There's enough weight in it so that I notice when I drop it (which I do with alarming regularity), but it fits into jean pockets.

And there you have my advice when getting a new phone. Try to get one which is waterproof, doesn't break the first (or about 15th) time you drop it, and it fits into your pocket. I really am all about the technology

edit: forgot to say, it needs to get charged about once every two days which is a pain in the arse as well...
