Looking for a new camera phone, can anyone advise please?

[pammy]

As the title says. I am looking for a phone under £100 with MP3, bluetooth and the usual perks.
my main thing that I would like is a decent camera on it with at least 2 mega pixels. i know that is asking a lot for the money I want to spend!

I need a good camera as I am photo mad with my kids and always wish I had my camera with me at those lovely/funny/cute moments when you least expect to want your camera!

I also need it to be either a flip phone or slider phone as I dont like the buttons on the front of the phone (as i quite often have my phone in my pocket)

would be grateful for any advice as I have been looking and reading reviews and changing my mind every day!

Oh yes and needs to be PAYG and on O2 would be perfect or easily unblocked!

Like I said don't want much LOL!
Thanks!!!

OH has just got a Nokia N95 but its on contract comes with 5 pix camera, bluetooth and all the boytoy gadgets, GPS & maps etc, kid's cousin has a samsung D600 and seems ok even DS wants one so can't be too bad.

e2save have the Sony Ericsson K800i (3.2 Megapixel) for £99.95 on O2 PAYG

boffin I love you loads That was my previous phone till said ex cut it off LOL - Im assuming thats the cybershot? If so Im off to buy myself a new phone... as at the time I only had funds for the K750i

My pleasure floosy...It's a 'clearance' phone but still has a years guarantee.

If you want brand new that's another £50

I've got the K800i and it's a great phone :)

Have to agree with Floosy, the D600 is great, i had it prior to the E900 which i dont like as much, to sensitive, and to be honest the d600 took better pics in my opinion.
Although i still think for popping in pockets a flip fone is best, i still caught my buttons on the d600, as it has a couple on the ouside.

I do like this phone but I wish it was a flip phone or slider.
But the camera is great on this phone though.

Right I have £130 in gift cards and i am STILL looking for a new phone.
Apart from the fact that i lost the back of my one on holiday and havent got round to replacing I have just dropped it in my tea!!!!! (yes I am already a member of the numpty club!) I have just dried it and put it on the radiator but I think I should definitely get a new phone now I have the money to get one.
I have been looking at the D900, what do you think? does anyone rate this phone?

[pammy]

I didnt really want one with keys on the front but i have just looked at the K850i which is 5 megapixel looks cool.

[pammy]

I need to get it from tesco to use my gift cards and some of theres are out of stock.

I got myself and the wife both a clearance K800i from E2Save last december, 12 month contract on £30 per month virgin.... £250 chequeback, £50 quidco, £12 immediate chequeback, worked out £48 for phone and 200mins, 300 texts per month for a full year.

E2Save are Carphone warehouse, so chequeback is spot on as long as you send it in time, got all mine upto now, just one more to go. Already looking for my next deal to get on E2Save (currently £36ish quidco), plus refurb phone and cashback, as this contract runs out at the end of the year....

K800i is spot on, we use it all the time for the 3 bairns, save carting a camera around or remembering to chage batteries for the camera....

thanks, I have been looking at that one as my sister has it but its just the keys at the front that I dont like. I know its only a minor thing but with my track record!

I have an e900 and it is rubbish...poor pics...always blurry and takes a split second after you click so never get exactly what you were hoping for...i have a motorola razr as well and the pic quality on that is much better even tho it is an older phone.

I have a samsung and I agree about the picture taking. What you take is never what you get. The shutter speed is very slow even on fast on mine!!

Please don't buy a samsung I had nokia's then a motorola and I feel like I've gone back in time with the samsung. Only had it for my birthday off hubby in august and desperatly want to change it.

I take it thats on PAYG? Would you not be better on a contract with free minutes and texts, plus free phone? My contract is £15.99 a month, I get 1000 off peak minutes and 250 texts.
