Old and New (LG T5100 & Nokia 6120 Classic)

After three good years, having good times (although it's been giving me some problems lately) with my LG T5100 phone, it is time to get a new one. The LG phone has been a durable and shock resistant phone, having been dropped numerous times from the table at least 3 feet high and it still functional... i'm impressed actually.

At the time it was released to market the phone is one of the most innovative in its class, having with 180 Degree Swiveling LCD Screen, the non-reflecting 262,000 Color 2.0"TFT LCD. Throughout the duration, the OS has only crashed twice with one severe crash completely destroyed all my data then and the keypad too started to give me problems when typing SMS. I guess with the price I paid for this phone then, it is worth every RM paid :)

I have been looking at the market for some time shopping for a new phone. Basically, despite all the hi-tech features that come with the latest phones, I seldom use them at all. Thus, I'll be looking for a phone with good (not best) functionality, stable and most of all affordable (well, budget is tight, waiting for bonuses to arrive, it is better to go for best value phone).

The one that grabs my attention currently is Nokia 6120 Classic. It's a candybar type, easy to hold and running on Symbian S60 OS, similar to the ones used in Nseries. It can work in any part of the world with operating freq of EGSM 850/900/1800/1900, enough to cover Asia, Europe and America continents. It is also a 3G phone and comes with 2MP camera, enough for me on normal usage. It meets my criteria already, hoping to get it some time this month or next :)
