T-Mobile - Any suggestions on a phone with better reception than a t610

[Epinephrine]

That would be comparable in terms of cost, quality. For some reason, our phone just doesn't sound too clear and I have read it may be the phone itself. Any suggestions on picking another phone???

Thanks

The T61X series weren't that good. The screens were crappy, software sucked, reception sucked compared to other phones.

What's your budget ? I can make several suggestions

Forgot to say -----> THANKS!!

I hear the V300, suffers the same problem like the T720.
Phone locks, noticeable decrease in battery life etc..

I heard it's much better built tho if that matters any.

E715 has so so battery life.

Does size matter at all ?
Are you specificially looking for the bluetooth feature on the phone ?
Camera necessary ?

Sorry for being so nonspecific.

Size isn't that important - My wife basically uses it and she states she might enjoy a flip phone (never had one before but I think reception quality would override this preference...)

Camera --> Don't really care about....

If the phone could synch with Outlook that would be great.

Bluetooth is preferred (as we already got a headset)

I don't know of any Samsung phones with bluetooth. And Nokia's have some phones with bluetooth but they're bricks.

Sony Z600 has better reception, faster software and features bluetooth and camera. ( 325-350 range ) (Current phone I own )

Panasonic X70 has camera, bluetooth and is about the same price. Pannys are good with reception as well.

They're both FLIP PHONES.
The Z600 has an Intenna, and the X70 has an External Antenna.

The Sony one looks interesting - Any good place to buy it (without activation...)

I've been using a Nokia 7210 for over a year now with Tmobile. It's the best phone I have ever used.. perfect reception. I used to be a phone junkie.. switching phones every month.

I think T-mobile is gonna start offering it in their lineup.
