I hope this hasn't been posted yet.
Basically, I want to hear your opinions on those 3 companies. Which one would you prefer, and why? What are the pros and cons of each brand? Also, list your personal experiences you've had with your phones, that would help too (battery, screen, calling, camera, etc). I excluded motorola because I consider it the worst of all, in my opinion, so there's no real need to compare it.
I want to get a phone in china that you can't find in north america, but I'm not really sure which company I should pick between those 3. Some models in asia were pretty crazy, and they work here if you just switch sim cards. I currently have the razor and I hate it, so I just can't wait to change it.

Oh and btw if you're going to buy one in China and use it in the North America make sure it's unlocked in the first place

Then I got a Sony Ericsson W900i and I LOOOOOOOVED it. Like I loved loved loved that phone. I loved the cameras, I loved the customizable themes, I loved the freedom to set mp3's as ringtones, and I even loved its chunkiness. But I had to move to Verizon Wireless from T-Mobile so I couldn't use it anymore TT^TT Anyway between Samsung and Sony Ericsson, I'd have to say Sony Ericsson because it was just better in every aspect imo - battery life, easiness, photograph qualities, etc. However I haven't really used the newer Samusng cell phones, so I think they're both good.
And motorola phones may suck but I really do like the KRZR. I used it for a little bit and I thought it was really pretty. The only thing is that the screen is not very clear (not many pixels).
Hmm. It seems that my post was completely useless

motorola is okay for me. ._. my mom has the L7 and most of my friends use razr. lol i don't know why most of you don't like it. i find it average and the battery is pretty good.
i never had samsung but i seriously think it has the most gorgeous phones ever, even though i hear some problems concerning the battery.

Motorola sucked because the UI was laggy. Although, the build was strong since I dropped the phone a lot on concrete. Lots of scratch marks, but working really good. The crappy UI messed it up. This is the RAZR V3 I'm talking about, now they probably improved it.
Sony Ericsson. I love it. Only got one phone from them and I really love it. Lots of customizations available. Themes, games, ringtones, etc. You can find stuff for it online and not a lot of people here have the model I have. Great UI, fast and not laggy. Battery life is great. I just wished that they stop playing around and release some serious phones.

Seriously. I wish they had a quadband phone in white with a 3.2mp camera with autofocus. I know I could get the K850 but I wanted something from the W series since I liked the W900i so much. Like the new W910i coming out except it doesn't have autofocus

Well, with walkman phones not having AF makes sense since it's a walkman line and music is more important than camera. There is a rumor that a white K850 will be released, no concrete evidence though.

- batteries long lasting
- the phone is able to use uploaded songs as ringtones and such (the ones not bought in american phone stores)
- amazing design, i love how most of their phones look like an actual camera from the back.
- durable, mine lasted through manyy falls.
- other features are great (depends on the type of phone)
i'd say nokia is next in line. their phone design is pretty nice too, but their graphics (menu on the phone) is a big 'NO' for me.
Samsung is a bit too plain for me, the new designs however are alright.

However, considering how many times I dropped it, the sides are bruised up bad.
BUT, the screen can never scratch. Its just like magic or something.
I remember having the very crappy Nokia 5300, one little scratch is like slicing the 3rd layer of the skin, god I hated that phone.
But been using my lovley SE for 4 months, with many scratched though =[ Im clumsy =X

they look too business like for my liking
but thye last really long. theyre like unbreakable
my mum's had hers for YEARS
but personally i think sony ericssons are the best
i have one and i love it
good functions, pretty good looking, affordable and VERY good battery life
you can customize them too..like u can even make ur own theme!
it also comes with these programs that makes it really handy to transfer files from comp to phone/vice versa
only bad thing is they scratch really easily
samsung is alright..most samsung phones are really slim and stylish
functions are pretty good
but battery life sucks and its overpriced i reckon
