Cellular Phone Forum / Providers / Cingular / October 2005Which Phone would be better?
Cingular has offered my wife 3 different phones to replace her third defective Nokia 3120 under warranty. The three phones are: Nokia 6102 LG C2000 Sony Ericsson Z500A She's really not too concerned with any of the bells and whistles that all 3 have. Her primary interest is which phone will perform best as a phone. In other words, which phone tends to have the strongest reception? I was leaning towards the Nokia based on past experience but don't want to sell the others short. I'd appreciate any comments. Thanks, Nick According to the local Cingular store in my area, Nokia phones work better on the Cingular network than Motorola and other phones. A few reps in the Cingular store suggested to stay away from LG and Ericson phones for reliability. YMMV. > Cingular has offered my wife 3 different phones to replace her third > defective Nokia 3120 under warranty.

But the phone most often carried by Cingular corporate reps in the Northeast & Midatlantic is the Motorola V551. Bill K > Interesting.

It's called publicity for a high-profit-margin model. -Dave I use the Motorola V551 phone and been through three of the so far within a year. Cingular replaced the phone due to problems (including product advisories). I used to use Nokia phone before switching to Cingular and never remember going through more than one phone. >> According to the local Cingular store in my area, Nokia phones work >> better [quoted text clipped - 9 lines] > > Bill K > Cingular has offered my wife 3 different phones to replace her third > defective Nokia 3120 under warranty.

The three phones are: > > Nokia 6102 > LG C2000 > Sony Ericsson Z500A We've got two Nokia 3220 phones that work extremely well. I'm surprised your wife wasn't offered one of those, as it is cheaper than a couple of phones on your list. -Dave > Cingular has offered my wife 3 different phones to replace her third > defective Nokia 3120 under warranty.

This is bad news, my gf really wanted a flip phone, so we got th LG2000 which the store had a promo for (BOGO Free). I was reall worried that the "talk time" was only estimated at 3.5 hours. But sh realy wanted to pay the 50 bucks for the phone rather than go throug the business department and get the 3120 for free I have been real happy with checking the phones out through www.phonescoop.com Knight-Toolworks http://www.knight-toolworks.com affordable handmade wooden planes I think it's fairly common knowledge that the phones that have the best RF and work in areas that other phones will not is Nokia. Go post this at howardforums.com and put up a Poll and let people vote. > Cingular has offered my wife 3 different phones to replace her third > defective Nokia 3120 under warranty.

The two best performers on that list are the Nokia 6102 and the SE Z500a. Other good phones are the Motorola V551 and RAZR V3.
