I have been w/ this carrier since 1999(through various names).

Anyway, it's time to upgrade. I have only ever had a Nokia. I laugh when I think of my first one and how bulky it was. I am only on my third phone now which I believe is a 6102. I have been very happy with my Nokia's, always. My husband tried an LG this last time and had numerous problems with it and I said, "I told you". I've long advocated for Nokia, but have considered trying out one of the Razr phones. I am so confused by the large variety of those now though. I just basically like the way they look - so thin! I like the Krazr look, but definitely not in blue (yuck!). I've read great reviews on that phone in other place, but on phone scoop I don't find much po...

Get the 6555 or 6126. They are both great devices. One thing if you get either, make sure to disable the packet data to connect only when needed rather than "always online" this will give you better battery life. The battery life isn't that fantastic but doing this should help you a little bit.

I have the N75 and I love it it is feature packed. Alot of people might tell you that it has bad battery life but,when you get the phone its data mode is set to like were it pings the 3g network every 3 minutes. So when you turn that off the battery life jumps in a big way. Another big like is that not only is it a 3g phone but its HSDPA as well. So when the network upgrades you will be able to have even faster data services as well.

Now in the store when I worked retail I got to use the 6555. Its a great 3g device now its not as feature packed as the N75 but you might not need all of that. The 6555 as you pointed out is a very slim phone but being 3g as well makes it video capable as well. I think eather way you go is a winning choice w...

Thanks for the feedback! I will stick with Nokia; I figured I would. 😉 Is the battery life on the N75 or the 6555 any better on one or the other? I'd go buy the 6555 tomorrow if it weren't for the horrible battery life feedback. 😕

the n75 is worse than the 6555. Get it, disable the packet data under connectivity settings, and you will be golden.
