Best feature wise? what do you like in a phone? IMO the Sanyo M1 is the best phone Sprint's had

Get the Blackerry Curve... I would advise getting one of the everything plans for it though so you don't have to pay for BIS

well you arent being specific and it is hard anyways to gauge the best phone.
what will you use it for?
do you like flip phones?
do you want touch screen?
every phone offers different things. To find the best, is to find the one that meets most of your needs.
Check sprint.com and look through the features of each phone. see the top 3 that have what you need. then come back here and at the top of the page is a link for phone reviews. They are created by the same people that post here. Check each of the 3 top models you picked as best for you, and see how they were rated. From there you can easily make a choice as to which phone to get.

These are my suggestions:
Dumb phone: Samsung M520
PDA: Blackberry Curve
PDA w/o BIS: Palm Centro
Please note: I have not played with the Samsung Instinct yet, for some reason UPS didn't ship ours on the 20th :[

I would agree on the M520 but its got some minor bugs that just annoy me.. the lack of mobile youtube being the major and the ringer being the minor. plus i miss my centros chat style text messages i hate having to hit 4 keys to start sending 1 text msg. The centro is a great phone with some small issues like all phones. It tends to lag sometimes cuasing you to do alot of misdials. pair it with a bluetooth or for the first couple of weeks you will be hanging up on alot of people by pressing on the lcd with your cheek. just minor things really but overall my centro worked great

M520 is alright, but its a Samsung so if you don't like the UI then its not for you, I'm on the Curve now.....best phone ever....hands down.......If you want a toy buy the M520.....If you want anything more then get the Curve

I've had about EVERY phone for sprint.. Ive been through them all and now im kinda stuck with a V9m..If i could go back.. I'd most def would go with the BB Curve.. It just WORKS.. NOT FLAWS, it has the pros from all the BBs, plus its not sluggish at all like WM, Push email is a HUGE PLUS, GREAT BROWSING!,Awesome looks, good camera, great bluetooth, AWESOME battery life, its just one of the best phones out the to date...(havent used the treo800w, but judging its a WM phone i know its not that good)

I need some help too please! Just got the LG Rumor a couple days ago and I'm not happy with the error message I keep getting when I try to send picture mail. It gives me the error code of s63. I use my phone alot for checking email, news, weather, some text and I really like to take pics and share with my daughter. The guy gave me a couple of choices....he said I can exchange for the Sanyo Katana, the Palm Centro, or the LG Musiq. I have a good plan that's less than $60 and includes unlimited internet, texts, mobile to home...etc. I think if I switch to the centro or the Upstage, I'd have to change my plan. Same with the Blackberry. Can anyone help? Thanks so much!
