Upgrade from E100...


Recommended Posts

I have the SPV E100 and my contract runs out next month. I was just wondering if I should get the E200 or the C500. Can anyone who has had one or both of these phones give me their opinion on which is better? The feature that I want the most is an on board camera unlike my attachable one which clips on. I also want to be able to do video recording. Can anyone help me at all?

Thanks.

As the C500 is the replacement for the E200 that should say it all :)

Seriously though if you want a new contract then the C500 otherwise go for the E200 for games (at the moment)

is the c500 able to have all the software on it that the e100/e200 can have? and what about the games for it? cant u put on the same games which the e100 and 200 use?

All the applicaions i used on my E200 work but at the moment only some games work (see the thread in C500 forum about which games work and which don't) but Orange are working on a fix which will make all games work on the phone :)

so would you personally get the c500 over the e200? also, what do i do with all the info on my sd card? and is there anything which will be on the fones memory that i will need to keep?

There is not really anything on the phone worth keeping when you upgrade unless you have some important emails etc there?

what about home screen pictures and any programs on ispm? also... you you definately think this c500 is worth getting because im going to be stuck with it for a year. but if you think its good i will take your word for it.

I'm happy with my C500 at teh moment, not gone for games

as yet but the size speed and usability all work well for me :)

i have had all 3 of the phones you mention and the C500 is streets ahead of the other two. miles ahead. IMHO the E200 was worse in use than the E100. get the C500!

ok sounds good. i would have to buy a new sd card tho :) and do i just copy all the info on the sd card to the pc and then copy it back onto the new one when i buy one big enough?

Yup, you will need to get a miniSD. I got a Kingmax (the cheapest!) 256Mb one from Ebuyer and it works fine. Not that pricey, either. And yup, you can just copy the old storage card to your PC and then return to the blank storage card on your new phone.

what about any shortcuts that are on my fone? and any other programs that are on my fone.. what do i do with them? also... do i get to keep my existing fone?

If you change phone it's best to recreate the shortcuts or with some apps reinstall them.

I mainly just recreate the shortcuts when I move cards from phone to phone.
