265k tft screen
big screen-240x320+

this is what i have in mind:

^sony ericsson k750i

^sony ericsson z800

^sharp 903

^lg u880(which i cant find anywhere=/)

any suggestions other than these or pro/cons about these?!? =]

[sphynkter]

sharp 903!! i want it cause i'm bored of sliders.

[erure]

do you live in europe? so far i don't think 3g networks work in the u.s... anyway i'd recommend the k800 that's coming out >_<

[trueloveway]

i have the lg u880.. where do you live? it's in all the 3g stores where i am (australia).

it has all the functions i want so i'm happy.. bluetooth, pretty good cam, mp3 playing capability.
only complaint is that it scratches pretty easily (well easier than the last phone i had). i also heard that you should flip it open and shut with care because the hinges of phone are flimsy. haven't really experienced that though..

i'm using the k750i~ it's great although a little bulky. but it's fine with me. =)

you think the k750i is bulky? O_o wow it's one of the smallest phones around xD

[skwannabe]

^ IT REALLY IS !! my frined has it and its sooo nice and small. but my slvr in thinner >.<

[erure]

^ yeah but slvr is kind of low-end compared with k750i... k750i has 2.0mp camera and stuffs O_O i'd totally get slvr if it had a better camera... vga is just too old T__T

nope i live in ny.

well you can use 3G phones in us.

its just that with a 3g phone you might have to wait a few months for the 3g functions to work properly, since 3g technology isnt widely spreded in us yet=]

i live in new york and there are barely any 3G stores. cuz i always shop around the asian area stores so that i can buy for like a lot cheaper. but 3g phones are rarely used in us ..for now that is.=]

yea almost ALL sharps are gsm. most unlocked sharps are by vodafone which is a gsm company, and locked sharps for US is by tmobile. Sidekick 2 is made by sharp and its gsm.=]

[Risse]

i just got a N70. Its wicked!!

[Akagi]

if you're comparing these phones, Sharp 903 without a doubt

[HAPPI3LAYDEE]

Verizon has a 3g network in NYC. More are comming out. I think Spring has PowerVision in NYC also.I always prefered a qwerty keyboard smartphone to candybar/flip phones.

[skwannabe]

k750i doesn't have 3g. the k900 will or k800. or w/e

[Hiatus]

the last LG is a new phone you can find it on:

the sharp 903 is the best out of all the other phones u posted in my opinion. great functions, great phone overall. my friend has the white one and it's really nice!!

[juhjuh]

Eh?? K750 isn't a 3G phone!
The Sony Ericsson z800 is kinda bulky. It doesn't look chic at all. But if you don't really mind the bulkyness, then yeah.

[tieulongnhi]

will 3g deffinitely work in the US? and how can you tell if it works or not?
