I am using nokia E7. it sounds good but still I am missing something without having iphone 4 . As you know samsung Galaxy is also a good mobile but it's not recommended for you if you aren't a heavy user. so I recommend you to buy iphone 4 or nokia E7(it's simple and its out look is pretty good. thanx.
You have a good budget, I would get an Android based mobile with a large screen, gps etc. There's a new LG with dual-core cpu, have a look at it.
If you can get iPhone for that price I suggest go with it. My other choice would be some HTC for that price.
I like the iphone personally. I have had the Evo and the iphone four. The Evo is more capable but the iphone is just, well it is an iphone. The battery is horrible on all Android devices I have used.
I will suggest you to buy Samsung Galaxy, its new and have many latest functions as compare with other phones.
I would suggest either an iPhone or a blackberry. Android still has quite a few bugs which need sorting. Battery life for one is rubbish on all android phones.
if you are not interested in games and apps, then I guess any Windows Phone 7 smartphone would be the best choice for you.....You can even look into BlackBerry Just my 2 cents
I've got an iPhone 4 and I swear by it. It's a good, all around, no-nonsense phone that's simple to use and has tons of applications. good luck in buying your phone
