The Dan Sai Kid Posted August 17, 2006 Share Posted August 17, 2006 I'm thinking of getting a new phone soon. I would like a camera that takes decent photos. Maybe 3 million megapixels? Although not as important - I would like one that I can play MP3s on - but I already have an ipod - so it's not vital. I'm not bothered about 3g or gprs. I would like one that looks good - I don't like some of the larger Nokias. My budget is around 10,000 baht - can anyone think about something suitable? Thanks very much!!

Tywais Posted August 17, 2006 Share Posted August 17, 2006 se 750i ... but it would be used at that price I think I 2nd the Sony Ericsson k750i and it is just under 10,000 baht from here: http://www.tohome.com/catalog.aspx?Catalog_id=541 and probably cheaper somewhere else.

Hmm the se K750 has less than 3millon MP (about 2 Million) but it is one of the best cameras going! Good luck! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wave Posted August 17, 2006 Share Posted August 17, 2006 I'll give another vote for the K750. As mentioned you can get it now for about 10,000 baht. The camera is 2mp but the quality is very very good, although it's not a replacement for a real digicam it is certainly good enough for snapshots. See the attachments. The mp3 player is also good. Sound quality is very impressive. You would need to buy an extra memory card as the one supplied is only 64 MB. I picked up a 2GB card on ebay for about 2000 baht. I've had mine for about 6 months and am very happy with it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
paulfr Posted August 17, 2006 Share Posted August 17, 2006 I have a Samsung D820. I love it. Camera 1.3 MP and quite good. MP4 video recorder/player w sound MP3 player and has card slot for a 1G card. Also very slim so it can be in your pocket without much bulk. Very attractive slider design. Outstanding display. Got it for 12,700 at Fortune. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thanks very much!! 3 million megapixels,, thats a mighty good camera.... If the camera wasnt such a big deal I can recommend a nice phone, Motorola SLVR. Not sure about the price though.

Gary A Posted August 18, 2006 Share Posted August 18, 2006 My old Seimens clam shell was having problems so I just bought a Samsung SGH E370. The camera is only 1.3 megapixel but the pictures are quite good. It has a lot of bells and whistles and is a slider design. I paid 8,900 baht for it in Carrefour. Unfortunately I no longer have the Samsung. My wife took a particular shine to it so I am now using her old 6230 Nokia. I had to charge the Siemens battery every other day so the MUCH longer battery life for the Samsung was welcome. Fortunately the Nokia has a pretty good battery life too. I really like the clam shell phones but they seem to develop problems sooner than the conventional phones. Time will tell if the Samsung slider design holds up.

libya 115 Posted August 18, 2006 Share Posted August 18, 2006 Under no circumstances purchase the very attractive looking NOKIA 6111. I bought one and within one week it had become faulty. I had a right palaver changing it. I just thought that I was unlucky. Then I did some research on the internet; and there are actual forums devoted to the unreliability of the NOKIA 6111. I visited a NOKIA shop in Pattaya, and the staff even told me, they choose not to stock it now, because of their reputation. caveat emptor!

Jockstar Posted August 18, 2006 Share Posted August 18, 2006 Seimens I will never buy one again. I have had 2 and both have ######ed up after a few months. I have a Motorola V3. I really like this phone. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I used to have a Siemens sl65 - it was a very noce looking phone - but not the most practical. The battery would get wiped out by a 20 minute conversation. I had to send it back to get the software updated as it switch off at random intervals. I would never buy a Siemens again. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

meadish_sweetball Posted August 19, 2006 Share Posted August 19, 2006 I'd support the recommendation for the Sony Ericsson K750. Brilliant little machine, and it will be the next one I buy myself as well (currently using a T610). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
