One of those need a new cell phone posts..

[darat]

I currently have a beat up 660, and would like a new cell phone.

Now, as much as i want the A 800, i dont think i actually will pay more than 200$ for my next cell phone because i go through them non-stop.

So i'm looking at the cheaper alternatives, LG 125 (saw it today at a sprint kiosk, i thought it was nice), Samsung A740, A760, and anything under 200$ basically.

Yes, i qualify for the rebate.

I just would like to know how the reception is on the phones i mentioned, compared to the 660. I have little to no bars while at school which is a pain in the ass.. But i also only have a few weeks left until summer so it's not too big of a deal.

I know the toshiba has great reception, but i want a phone that like is under 200 before rebates.

All suggestions are welcome.

(Also, how loud does the LG's speakerphone get? i could use that while im driving, but my car's exhaust is loud, so i dont know if it would be useful)


Edit: Just looked at the A 760, and it doesnt look bad either, i don't need a camera at all.

I just need reception.

I just changed my samsung a740 for the lg 125.
So far after 1 week I love this phone.
Speakerphone is great although its not that good in the car(I like to keep the music VERY loud,so I have to lower it quite a bit)With the music off,I can keep it in my lap no problem. the reception so far is very good,call quality is good.its a very solid phone.Battery life dwarfs the a740.Screen is bright,web is fast and lastly the ringers are pretty loud.

Hmmm....the LG I believe would be your best bet. And it looks pretty cool too!
