Sony k850i or Nokia 6500 slide?

[shabba]

Cant make my mind up, which phone to get.....

Does anyone have any of these phones and what are they like?

 

also how can i get a better deal with the provider i am with as they are giving me crappy deals and 18 month contracts, which i wanted to avoid, as i have just come from a 18 month contract..... but if i dont get a 18 month contract i will get a crappy phone and worse deal.

 

any suggestions?

beware of the 6500 slide, bought one of carphone wharehouse, all ihad was problems:mad:. it was freezinf up all the time.

 

never had k850i but i had a k810i, wish i never got rid off, best phone i ever had.

Ryan, do you have a K850i, whats it like overall? heard the camera is sharp is it?

i am on about 18 month contracts as before you could get a good deal on a 12 month contract.

[aziman]

always get 12 months never 18 because they mess you around for upgrade.

 

k850i only fault i can see is the buttons are small. a few people i know say its a good phone.

 

6500 slide check out the reviews what people say alot of problems. similar to my problem.

To my knowledge you can only get it on 18, but both t mobile and orange do it, all depends how much you use.

 

I personally love it, when i go away on weekends and holidays and nights out etc its a 5 megapixel camera the video is also quite good, its got everything you need, yes its an 18 month contract but ill be changing that after 9..

i've got the k850i and love it, until it gets a teeny bit of water under the screen (where the join is from the touch screen buttons to the keypad). It goes completely wappy - sends messages on it's own etc - there's no way of stopping it. I once turned it off whne it did it and left it for a few mins, then turned it back on and it kept entering wrong numbers in my pin code, one more wrong and i'd have had to get my PUK code.

 

Don't use it in the rain.

I have a 6500 slide and I'm well chuffed with it. Feels like quality and easy to use. No probs at all so far. The only phones I've ever had probs with are LG.
