Okay, im not that crazy about having the best and most expensive phone ( i was once ) but it doesn't worth it really! not a fan of taking pic with phone , so i dont care about camera, not a fan of using internet or stuff...
so i just want a very good looking phone , with a very good sound, long life battery, and easy to use ( without glitches :lol: ).
And im not into phones, so i dont know much about models and perofrmances, just checked some store and found some models around my budget.
Xperia x8 or nokia x3-02...and som eother models that i dont even remember :? .
what do you guys think? any suggesstions?

Man, 150 euros is about 130 euros more than I'd ever spend on a phone. My old one was a bargain- samsung SGH-B130 that cost £5. Makes phone calls, battery charge lasts about a week, survives being dropped on the floor, loud alarm clock. Bob's your uncle!

Ahhh than phone is a beast!!!! one of the comments on youtube " it will cost 10 dollar after 20 years" :lol: thats about when i can buy that little beast.
I dont know mate, i never had a good feeling about Samsung or LG, never used them as a cell phone though but i always tought they are only after the look, not quality! you have any experience with that LG phone?

awesome phone (probably the best i ever had), but you know.. i needed to start checking emails etc.. and well i decided to change it, but i feel i could do best use of it, i just use it to check emails, news on the internet, and talk, but i know people with even problems to clean themselves up after "pooing", because they're texting everywhere anytime... and have their hands occupied, i'm not that kind of guy.

I got a Samsung Galaxy S2. Its all kinds of dominant, i actually think its more powerful than my laptop. I don't even think the hyped iphone 5 will top it.

On topic i think if you aren't interested in apps and things then just get a cheap phone, or if you want to listen to music pick up a old sony ericsson walkman phone, that would be good.

Hmm not that im not interested! i just wont give money for it...if i can get something with my budget that have apps and other stuff, why not?you have any recommandation?
I had W800i and i wasn't satisfied with its perofrmance, it was too slow , getting frozen often , it wasn't easy to handle.

That's true you can't do that. In which case, you should get one of these. It's in stereo!
