I would take the Nokia 6103. Based on my experience with this hand set, it has great battery life, good pictures for a VGA camera, awesome reception, and the build quality is very sturdy. The bluetooth feature worked very well.

I second MobilePrincess' recommendation. The 6103 is a solid, dependable phone and it has Bluetooth. I am NOT a fan of anything Samsung (no matter how low-end or high-end it is), so it's an easy choice for me to go with Nokia.

As far as the RAZR V3...it's OK, but I would still go with Nokia. Just my .

Thumbs up Re: Phone Upgrade

Thanks-I also have eliminated the Samsungs. Both the 6103 & the Razr have pros & cons. I am leaning toward the Razr because my current phone is a Moto V180, & am told transferring the phone book is easier Moto to Moto

Id also go for the Nokia 6103. Keep in mind that if your contacts are in your SIM card, then you will only have to drop the SIM into your new phone and all of your contacts will carry over.

Just to let you know, Jim, you can save your contacts to the SIM card and when you place it into a 6103, you have the option of moving them to the phone exclusively or having them on both the phone and the SIM.

This is along the lines that clock3687 mentioned.

Either way, you shouldn't have any problem with the contacts whether you get the 6103 or the RAZR.

Thank you Mike. Some of my contacts are in the phone so that I can use 1-touch or 2-digit dialing on my motorola. I guess I have to convert them all to SIM & then change frequent contacts to the new phone.
