Nokia N70 na lang sir. I've been using that phone for over a year. If I remember it right, mga twice lang sya nag-hang. That's it. Very reliable but the keypads are too small for me. Libre kse kaya ok lang! hehehe!

Pwede din SE K750i.

Nokia 6300
10k for gray unit
11k with 1yr nokia warranty
available at all nokia centers..

everything you required is in this phone. di prone sa hang kasi "series 40" sya. sleek and classy looking pa coz metal ang casing nya.

Nokia 6300 Review (Philippines)

According to the above review link, the N 6300 costs Php 9,800 brand new. Not sure if it pertains to gray or official nokia units.

***********

The phone I'm lusting over right now, is the N93i. :D But it costs Php 3x,xxx.xx ++ ! everywhere!

The Motorola V3i is now Php 7,xxx.xx+. Not bad!

***********

Once thing I'm annoyed with cellphone manufacturers, is its planned obsolescence. I know this natual in this kind of business but when they can't provide support by making parts available. Right now, I *might* be forced to upgrade bec. I'm having a hard time getting my hands on genuine Nokia replacement battery for my 7250.

for 9.8k, definitely it's gray.. last time i checked for 6300 "official unit", it cost 11.2k..

i can get a bnew "official" N93i for 28.5k.. orig battery for 7250 is around 450..

I use nokia 6300 since March. Call, Text, MP3 (w/ 2GB MicroSD and 25mm headset), 2Megapixel Cam & Video, Bluetooth, Notes (puwede cut/copy and paste) and of course the scratch proof, Stainless steel body. This is also a USB Phone btw. I just connect the phone to my Imac using USB cable and it functions like a memory card.

ewan ko magmula ng naging phone ko 'to, I rarely visit Nokia or other cellphone shops in malls anymore. I dont even know the new breakthroughs ngaun sa cellphone tech like WiFi, 3G, Nseries etc etc. except of course when I had the Nokia E61. kinekelangan ko pa makibalita sa e-series org.

ignorance is bliss ... life simpler.

but buy this only if you have a good stand-alone camera. like mga compact slim types. I use a dslr kasi kaya I rarely use the camera function

Ok this time what if its the N70 music edition ( latest iteration of the N70) Vs. Nokia 6300. Which of the two would be a better choice? I'm not so sure but I think there is only a small price difference bet the two.
