Recomend a phone?

Ok so I was going to port back to T-Mobile and get the e335. However it seems the phone is not so hot on sound quality and neither is my e317 at cingular. Anyone have any phone suggestions? Any idea if any new smaller phones are coming out about the same size?

id like one, not like required since i barely use it. I really like that Samsung e335, too bad people are saying its sound quality isnt too great. Maybe I am just too picky, I dunno. I just need a service provider with Service in my house and that leaves me with T-Mobile and Verizon.

depending on your budget 2 phones i have been extremely happy with is the sharp tm150 and the x475. Sad thing is the sharp is as thick as a piece of texas toast.

hmmmm i wonder why people complain about the e335 if it looks just like the x427. Do you work for T-Mobile or just have the phones?

telesales. 8 months. as far as advise. it is personal oppinion i have had lots of hands on time and Samsungs in general i am a fan but for a real basic flip phone this is the way to go.

you are very helpful. I like your comparison to texas toast haha. When I had t-mobile before porting to cingular in december i had the e715. I loved it except it was hard to hear on it in loud situations. So you would recomend that Samsung x one? Have you heard any complaints about the e335 or is it too new at this time?

I left T-Mobile because of my discount at Cingular cause of where I work. But by the time I pay for 10 cents text messages i pay almost exactly what i paid at T-Mobile before leaving and i get no signal at my house. â˜šī¸

you have helped me out a lot...so right now i just have to decide between the x475 and the e335. I have the e317 and i think the e315 might have the same low volume issue. Im just not one for these larger bulky phones but I loved T-Mobile. The customer care has been supportive in explaining how to port back and stuff, now its just finding the phone that I will like when I come back so I can come back. Are there any new ones coming out maybe I should wait for?

even though everyone says motorola's are better, the menu setup and phonebooks are stupid to me. Ive never heard of the 720 or 730...so there are some new phones in July coming out then?

lol ur good. I looked up this Nokia 6101, it looks pretty cool too. The site here has a Motorola v360 too coming out.

I saw the 730 on the site too...all look very nice. What one do you want? The 720 looks cool too!

Any chance any of these are coming in July? 😁

I am NOT a fun of samsung my girl had to return the e315 3 times for dropped calls, echos, and freezing all the time. She really wants to go back to nokias but they dont make to many reasonable priced flip phones. Until now the nokia 6101 should be out for tmo mid to end of july https://www.phonescoop.com/phones/phone.php?p =689
or u might like the moto V188 which is the same size as the Samsung X475

In my humble opinion i would wait for the nokia since the pull the strongs signal & it looks cool...

thanks...maybe im making this into a harder decission that it really is, but its pointless for me to switch unless i get a phone im happy with. This e317 is horrible. I can hardly hear half the people i talk to even at full volume and they break up. I like Samsungs as far as style, as far as quality, the e715 was decent, this e317 is horrible. 1 for 1. Now I gotta decide what to get. Ive seen some new Samsungs coming out but it doesnt say what carrier.

The 6101 looks cool. I loved my 3336 Nokia I had a LONG time ago, TDMA.

good thing is if you order over the phone at 1800tmobile you have a 30 day grace to see if the Phone works for you. now dont confuse this with the buyers remorse which sit ats 14 unless you are in cali.

i was a customer before, cancelled December 28 2004, does that matter? Im not even going to attempt the e315 after all the e317 problems i have. Heck i dont even know if i should try any of the "e" models haha. I was told by Cingular to wait till the end of July to port so I can get use out of this month which im already paying for, any idea when i can check for new phones? any hints?

good, as soon as i find a phone I want im back. Ill watch the site to see, they seem pretty expensive on ebay and i dunno if thats safe to do. I think i have my old SIM card somewhere too. So far I like all the samsungs you have shown me, and that 6101 dont look too bad, neither does that v360 but im not so sure about the weight and stuff.
