I Need A New Mobile Phone - What Do You Have? (and Is It Pink?!!)

[sarah-b]

I have a pink LG Shine which I love, but last week it failed to power up after charging so as it is less than a year old I took it back to the Orange shop.

They said they could send it for repair and if it couldn't be repaired they would replace it. They charged me £15 to have it back in 7 days and for a loan phone (which turned out to be like something out of the ark and unusable). All my numbers are on that phone and some will be completely lost.

Today I rang up to see if there was any news "Yes - we can't repair it and it was dropped so won't be replacing it" - I was not best pleased. I *have* dropped the phone in the past (who hasn't?) but it never did it any harm before!! I reckon that every phone that gets sent back comes back with either "been dropped" or "water damage" as the reason so they don't have to replace it. Big thumbs down for Orange!!

So, I rang up Sainsburys Home Insurance to see whether I am covered. Indeed I am. No excess. She asks the make, model, cost and what happened and then instantly credited my bank account with the value. It took 10 minutes!! So big thumbs up to them!!

So, my point is I need a new phone and would love recommendations (especially if they are pink!!)

I have a Samsung Soul U900- and yes it is pink.  Its a nice phone, have only had it a couple of weeks and will most probably never learn how to drive it properly but it does everything I want it to (texts and phone calls  ).  it also has a 5mp camera which was a nice addition.

My phone is pink too.

I am just changing it to samsung L600 hopefully the pink one too.  It has a 5 mega pixel camera too and video.

Not pink but I have a sony erricson K800i and I love it  Partly because I think its pretty (pink has never really been my thing!) and also because I don't know how many times I have dropped it- on pavements and everything and its still going after almost a year and a half I could probably get a new one with the contract I have but tbh don't really want to lol!

I have a pink samsung ATM it drives me nuts as it will just suddenly decide to turn itself off for no reason.
