I am looking for a good Nokia phone for my fiancee (reason for Nokia is that she is into texting more and hates her present SE phone because of the keypad) with the below features.

1) Slim

2) Good Keypad, Decent Cam ,Extendable memory

TIA

i think the nokia 6303i is good enough for ur fiancee. i am planning to buy it tomorrow. i can't take the torture my se c-510(restarts all the time-even after flashing it thrice) is putting me through-its out of warranty as the warranty was carried over and i've found a bakra who is willing to pay me 4.5--5k for my phone.

the nokia 6303i looks like a good basic phone with decent features.

5800XM is much better than 5530XM. go for 5800XM. and there is still time for C6 to hit the market.

I went for and checked out the Nokia 6700 ,Nokia 6303i and the Nokia 5310 XM .I am still confused as to which to pick up .

Nokia 6700 was good but she felt its heavy

Nokia 6303i was decent

Nokia 5310 XM she liked it for its size ,it is damn slim .

She got confused and confused me as to what to purchase.I saw the Nokia E52 in ebay but since it hasnt released in India the seller is giving 12 months dealer warranty.Is the E52 reliable.If not suggest me a slim nokia phone .

Requirements for the phone are Slim,decent cam,bluetooth ,good keypad for texting,expandable memory.2G or 3G will do but 3G is preferred.No QWERTY keypad

TIA :)

The Nokia 5310 XM is still a decent buy, although its dimensions and audio performance is all its got going for itself.

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.

Hey sunny i had gifted the Samsung S5200 for a cousin of mine.She liked the phone very much ,I haven't heard of any performance or reliability issues.

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.

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
