I have around £60 to spend, would prefer a cheaper phone lol.

My one got ruined and now need a new one. cheap but cheerful if possible.

I want a phone that can do as much as it can for a low price, I'm not expecting an amazing handset.

Decent MP3 and Camera would do me, with usb connection avalible.

Please let me no what make, model and where I could get it pleeease.

THANKS XXX

Why dont you go on ebay or somewhere, you can get more for your money.

What about a Motorola v3i, Razrs never get old plus its so much better than the original.

I think the Samsung J700 is quite good for it's price.

It's available in black or pink and costs £49.99 (was £69.99 without £10 top-up)- but you have to get a £10 top-up so the total cost would be £59.99 (just fitting into your budget!)

It has an MP3 player, 1.3 megapixel camera, bluetooth, FM radio, video calling, e-mail, etc.

both from Orange.



Also, one of the best all-rounders is the Sony Ericsson K550i.

It has an MP3 player, 2.0 megapixel Cybershot camera (which is better than the Samsung's), video recorder, bluetooth, infrared, email, gaming etc.

The only problem is that it is also £49.99- but you have to top it up by £20- so the total price would be £69.99, which is over your £60 budget.



BUT- before I changed to Pay Monthly and was on Pay As You Go on Orange- when I bought a phone requiring a £20 top-up on the Orange website from the Orange Shop, instead of online- after buying the phone handset, I just asked if I it was ok for me not to add on a £20 top-up; and the shop assistant said that that was fine.

So if you do want to buy the Sony Ericsson (or the Samsung) but don't want to add on the extra £10-£20 top-up, then just buy the phone from the Orange store instead!



Hope this helps! (:

lol i am also looking for a new phone. My last phone was a sony ericsson w58oi, nd it has broken after about 5 months, the music volume is good and the camera is but after a while the buttons crack in half and the slider gets stuck. Mayb you should look on the internet on like t-mobile shops, or any other phone company that might have some deals there. If your looking for music dont get the sony ericsson cyber-shot its only good for photos, and the music volume is rubbish

Samsung J700 Slider from Phones 4 U, £49.99 + £10 topup



Sony Ericsson W610i (if you dont like slider then go for this it also comes with 512mb memory card, dont buy from ebay (ebayers 50% conners selling fake chinese phones).





it is decent phone and it wil do you get.



All pay as you go phones requires topup in order to buy (Either £10 or £20)

I Also recommend the samsung J700, you can get it in pink, purple, silver or black and from 50 pounds from vodafone!

Or the sony ericsson W810i is a great model too! 2MP camera and MP3 player with expandable memory!

Good luck!

Every phone weighs about 2 pounds or less. 4 or 5 pounds is too heavy.
