I'll be heading back to Hong Kong at the end of this month, and its time for a new cell phone. I'm looking for something that not many people here, something not like the SE W810i. (live in Vancouver) Camera I don't really care about, so a 2MP camera will do fine for me. MP3 player is a must since this is replacing my iPod. I'll be getting 2GB M2's so store my songs and pictures. My price range is around max $2500 HK, $340 Canadian. I'm going to be keeping this phone for around three years, so I need a durable and nice phone.

I'm sort of leaning towards the K550, because a website lists it at $1980 and it looks pretty decent. Also the W610. http://ringhk.com/price.php

Also should I buy from reputable dealers or buy it cheap from the other stores? Last time I helped a friend buy a phone for real cheap, it died after 3 months. Does anyone know of a website where it shows Hong Kong cell phone prices? Cause I've seen the K810 for $2900 on one website, and $3500 on another.

Thanks
 
Also need to add that, I will not use the phone for internet.. so that counts the E90 out. Won't it be super expensive? nice camera..interesting design.
 
Checked ouit the 6500 Slide. Seems pretty thin for a slider in my opinion, only 2 mm thicker than the K550. Resembles the Samsung D900 a lot. Worried about the battery life though according to GSM Arena the battery life of the 6500 Slide is only 310 hours stand by and 6 hours talk which is similar to the battery life listed of the D900. Slightly heavy too at 125 grams.
Here are the phones I've narrowed it down to:

Sony Ericsson K550, cheap at only $1980 HK and having the functions I need. Like the look, 2MP camera, perfect size.

Sony Ericsson K810 if I can get the phone at around $2500 because of the nice camera. Heard that it has a good battery life too.

Sony Ericsson T650 depending on price. Like the 3MP camera, Walkman 2.0 and thickness. (12.5)

Any more suggestions? I see my list is full of SE phones, cause I find they look more attractive.
