Hey everybody,
On thanksgiving I am eligible for my new every 2 deal where I get a $100 toward a new phone at the 2 year contract price. I right now have a really old Nokia candy bar phone. I'm looking at the phones Verizon has--they don't have too many--and I'm not sure which direction to go.
Does anyone have an opinion on Verizon's current offerings? I'm not into frills, I want reliability, voice quality, best reception, best durability and so forth.
Thanks!
Did you like your Nokia? I recently got a Nokia 6236i from Verizon and love it - I never thought I'd get a 'candy bar' style phone, but this one is so small, and so pocket-able, and has that "european" look you mentioned in another post (because of the size).
As for the phone itself, the reception has been great, sound quality is very good - and, its one of the few Verizon phones without the Verizon UI.
I picked up a data cable from eBay for $5.00, I can copy music, pictures, wallpapers and screen savers to the phone really easily. And for 'wow' factor, its got a built in FM Radio (with thier headset).
The only negatives to it (IMO) - No Bluetooth (don't use it anyway), no EVDO (Again, don't use it, but if it was tetherable to a Mac I might've tried!) and no V-Cast (never used when I had it...)
Like I said, I never thought I'd have a candy-bar style phone - but I do love this one...
