Sian-Marie Posted April 16, 2009 Report Share Posted April 16, 2009 I've got a Nokia 6220 - can't fault it at all Not sure about the others but I know a few people who've had problems with the Tocco "freezing/crashing" Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
al3x kay Posted April 16, 2009 Report Share Posted April 16, 2009 The tocco is **** don't get it! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tombuttigieg Posted April 16, 2009 Report Share Posted April 16, 2009 i second that about the tocco, when i had nokia phones i had no problem but when you get the really smart ones they tend to get a bit slow Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
scoobydoo Posted April 16, 2009 Report Share Posted April 16, 2009 (edited) if the n96 has a price tag defo take the n85 if u like nokias. its exactly the same pretty much but alot better looking... i have one and its a deadon phone. looks ace has fun games and plenty of memory. only down fall is the screen is brilliant in the house etc but not the best in the sun.tbh though if u give orange a bit of gip they will give u watever u want lol. i just went from orange dolphin 40 i think to dolphin 25 got a fiver off that per month to and a free n85 which they told me would cost £200 on my new small contract so contract plus unlimited internet is £20 a month. saved a good £650 over 18 months haha.

Good phone, easy to set up. **** battery life, but beter phone than any Samsungs I've had before.My brothers jut got a Omnia, basically the same as a Tocco, but more expensive, the touch screen is horrid!

`Shack Posted April 18, 2009 Report Share Posted April 18, 2009 ive got a nokia 5800.their alright, but after youve had it about a month it just gets boring lol, nothing overly exciting about it apart from full touch screen.and that express music thing is a con with it, i thought it was that where you could DL as much music as you wanted for a year but its not, its just plays songs a lot clearer etc... and the music store for it is basically itunes with the nokia name lol Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
