Hi all,
I need to get a new phone because I'm really disappointed in my Sony Ericsson T637 (I know, very old, but I just got it last month).
The "must have" features for my phone (in order of importance):
1. GSM
2. Very fast user interface. This is my primary gripe with the T637-every time I press a button, it lags/it is not responsive. I'm extremely fast with electronic devices and I HATE when I need to pause for them. Basically, I expect my phone to prioritize my key presses FIRST, not as a secondary background task.
3. Strong Bluetooth. I plan on using a Jawbone with my phone. I haven't bought the Jawbone, but I am open to other suggestions when it comes to Bluetooth headsets.
4. Color screen that is very visible in daylight.
5. Strong reception
6. Good battery life.
7. Reasonably priced. I'm not looking for the latest features, just solid, reliable ones.
I also prefer if it had:
1. Camera. I actually don't care that much about this feature, but it's nice sometimes, mainly so I can have a picture associated with a contact.
2. 3G? Or some other type of data network--I will be using it with Cingular Blue (i.e. the old AT&T Wireless) and I don't have a data plan. I would like to be able to view Google Maps every now and then.
4. GPS. Again, not very important, it would be nice if it integrated with Google Maps.
Basically, I'm looking for a solid, reliable phone with strong Bluetooth and a fast interface. I want the "Thinkpad" of cell phones.
Thanks for your help,
-James
