Help me choose a good cell phone, please?

Nov 26, 2004 1:12PM PST

I am a Junior in high school and I am looking for a good cell phone from T-Mobile. I was looking at the Sony Erricson T-610 or the Motorola V-600. I know that those 2 models are different by a lot, but they are my final choices.

I need a good bluetooth phone b/c I will use a wireless headset, and a good camera phone would be nice. I'll sync it with a Mac to update address books and things like that.

Any help will be appreciated, Thanks!

I would not get the T610 if i was you. If you want to get the sony ericsson T630. i would recommend the v600.

If you want a reliable phone with good signal, the T630 is an excellent phone. Unfortunately TMobile does not offer the phone at this time. The V600 is a nice design with Video playback and a few more features.

V600 has a poor track record. Cingular stopped carrying it for their service after a few months. I dont know how well T-Mobile has been with the V600 but probably the same. Looks cool, does a lot of stuff, but works bad overall.

The T630 is the best value bluetooth phone if you are not hung up on having a flip. Ericsson created bluetooth technology so their bluetooth has a good track record.
