they wanted 70 quid to replace the screen  ive had 2 already
its becoming a bit expensive
need something more robust
i really only use my phone to make / recieve calls

They`re ok for calls but not so good at excavating.

I have destroyed 3 phones in the last 2 years, so now I have the Samsung Solid Immerse. I can't fault it waterproof, scratchproof screen and can be dropped 2m without damage. Look for it on youtube it is a good phone. I have dropped it into a bucket of water to test it and it works fine!

After breaking a NoliaN95 and it's replacement, I also bought a Samsung extreme phone. Still drop and bash it but it is proving to be up to the job. Small screen though.

I just have a £20 phone and its fine. The last one was about six years old when it packed up. A phone is just a phone to me not some posy status symbol. My son spends more on one of his phones than I have spent on all of mine put togeather. And his phones don't seem to last as long as mine.

i have a small fluorescent dog collar fixed to my phone  with a tiny cord i bought up at the market. this means that the phone cannot slip from my hands easy   when up my ladder etc

ive got one of the htc smartphones.i love it but the screen is hard to see in bright sunlight.ive got a skin on it which protects it when out working though.i find i look after my phones now i dont drink anymore.i used to be forever losing or damaging em when copious amounts of alcohol were being drunk!not sure whether this phone will last 2 years which is when i normally upgrade.

expensive on pay and go.cost me £300 to buy.i could of bought a new pole for that amount of money!!still ive got a fairly new slx anyway!(april).


regards

I'm the same, Vince.

1.  Does it have the capability to make and receive phone calls - check!
2.  Does it have the capability to send and receive texts - check!
3.  Does the battery last 4 or 5 days - check!

That's me happy.
