Your the only one that is going to be able to decide which one is better. Here's some information on each of these two phones. I couldn't send you pictures to see the looks side by side because I didn't have your email address and yahoo doesn't have the features to send pictures on answers.



If your interested in either of these phones, I do have promo codes for a new two year contract as well as codes for upgrading and extending a previous contract. Your more then welcome to email me anytime for more information.
