i have decided i am going for the samsung s5350 - i like the looks i like the features--this has 3g -something nokia 6303i or the samsung s5200 does not have. the camera has better image quality if compared to the nokia 6303i if you are looking at daylight photography and then the sound quality is very good and with the 3.5mm adapter its easy to use your own headphones.
Smart choice, it sure is a looker! :cool2: Samsung devices generally have decent SQ.
So you see, these things ultimately come down to your personal preference.

6303i or 5310XM ??
@T.T.M How is the reliability of the 5310XM??.I had picked one for my mom about 2 years back it has some software issues and conked off with in one year,but got it replaced by Nokia thats another painfull story.Since i am not going to be there in the country till the year end .I do not want her(fiance) to face any issues with what ever phone i purchase.
One more question is the keypad of both the phones good enough to take the abuse of fast texting and about 200 to 300 texts per day.
Well, the Nokia 6303i is newer, packs in a few more features and available in a wide range of colours(take note!
). It offers balanced performance, as it is intended to do just that. The keypad is pretty decent for super fast typing.
The Nokia 5310 XM on the other hand, is slightly dated in comparison and essentially a music phone where others features are secondary. The slim form factor & the SQ, are the top reasons for choosing this device. Buggy software is unavoidable, as it remains unpredictable among most devices today. Sensible people usually upgrade or downgrade (Nokia Care) their phone software accordingly, the rest learn to live with it or get rid of the device eventually.
I would probably suggest the 6303i's keypad over the 5310 XM but would strongly suggest trying it in person, as hands-on experience matters in such cases.

Ok i have another requirement,I am looking for another phone with below features.I need to gift it to a friend of mine in NZ
Which would be the VFM 3G/2G phone with GPS(Garmin or any other software should work thru GPS and not thru GPRS or WIFI).If it has a KB that would be great.
Preferred brand Nokia ,next preference Samsung
QWERTY keyboard? slide out? BUDGET?
