Evening guys and gals.

 

As the title suggests;

 

Do you have a certain phone that caught your eye, yet you never took the plunge to get it? 

 

Is there a phone you wanted so badly and it turned out to be a huge mistake?

 

For me the phone I always wanted was the Motorola V70. It was just so original and unique, back in a day where the phone design was what set you apart, not the case you put it in.

 

My biggest regret was the Motorola RAZR V3. Yes it was strikingly beautiful, sleek and elegant, but try putting a few songs on it and then snapping a few pictures and bang, out of memory... 

 

How about the rest of you lovely people?

Always admired the V3 but when I got to play with one (mother's) I hated using the interface. As an oddity, I always wanted a Nokia N93 - the one with a video camera! 

 

On the other hand, I had a Sagem my-55 as a freebie on Vodafone. Looked quite poor but in reality it was a fantastically brilliant phone that was almost unbreakable.

 

Currently on the phone I wish I hadn't is oddly, the Nexus 4. I should say so far that is as  its not exactly what I call a device to pick up and use without a lot of configuration.

Some will love it and some will hate it. If you are used to apple it will seem confusing at first as the options to customise and change things will be alien. Personally I'd prefer to spend a bit of time setting a phone up to my choice rather than having to use what someone else wanted me to use, but again, it's a personal thing. That's why the different phones and platforms all survive side by side wink

See if you can borrow one or try one out first. It's very, very different to apple.
