what basic cellphone should I get?

TastyCaramel SG

Hello people, I just want to know which basic cellphone should I get? I am currently looking at Nokia 101, Nokia 100 and Nokia 110. So basically what I need is a phone that is durable, can text, can call and long battery life. I don't want those got wi-fi, gprs, gps etc.

Thanks

Going NS ar? any cheap phone without camera will do. No need so fanciful, as long as it can call and SMS can already

No lah, my parents currently need money, so I planning to sell my arc s and get one basic one. I still got like 5 more years to my NS period :)

And also please tell me the price of these phones. My budget is below $200. Any kind of basic cellphone also can one.

It's not like I am going to buy BB or HTC. I just want to change to a basic and simple cellphone. Besides, I got my iTouch, so I don't need those useless features.

*Edit: Ya lah, I know it kind of sucks, but remember a phone is a phone right? I don't care if people laugh at me when i bring it to school. It's not like you can afford a Vertu and laugh at everyone.

QX179R SG

or the "lovely 8250" oso boleh..

TastyCaramel SG

Lol haha those phones were classic and I don't think you can find them in Singapore anyways. Still like the Nokia 8810 'Matrix' but that's so long time ago.

I still got my classic 8250..

TastyCaramel SG

Haha I wish I could start a collection of classic phones but now I think too late already :D

Besides, it would be rather expensive based on GST and those taxes :'(

htc is lousy. I brought 2 phones, Tattoo and Wildfire S respectively, all got damaged withtin 1 year. 1 year over, can't claim warranty

Summer hill SG

I think you should get a 2nd hand phone

Summer Hill, did you read my question? I am looking for a basic and simple cellphone, not a smartphone. Since I got my iTouch, I planned sell my arc s for a basic cellphone.

*edit: Nah I don't want second-hand phones, just want a new and durable phone that can last me throughout minimum 2-3 years can already.

Nokia 3310.

The most durable phone ever made.

So durable that an iPhone 4 breaks apart when this phone did not have any scratches at all.

Suggest you go buy that.

Last time technology different. Symbian phones considered the best in the cellphone market. Then iPhone 2g came out an kick Nokia's ass. Now is the galaxy s3 rape the iPhone 4s. How ironic technology is!
