    I have a Nokia 6220 classic which is unfortunately coming to an end. i am looking for a new phone. My budget is under 300 euros. I am a student so i would prefer a phone which is sturdy. Also i would like physical keys and a decent screen size. I have no network preferences or form factor ones.

    I don't really care about the camera quality or WiFi but would hope for gps, document viewer e.t.c.. I am currently thinking getting either an N96 or an E5. the only feature i really want is multitasking.

    Thanks in Advance!

    Thanks for the quick reply but i can't afford an iphone for less than 300. I forgot to mention in my original post that i was looking for a prepay phone

    e5, it's 149 on 3pay, 5mp Camera, Symbian OS, Wifi, lot of phone for the money.

    Thanks drunkmonkey my only reservation about the e5 is the screen size. Is it legible and possible to watch photos e.t.c on it?

    Thanks bluewolf and manu2009 i will look at adverts and the xperia x8. The thing is though an unlocked phone comes without a warranty and i would like to keep my next phone for at least a couple of years

    The N96 is horrible. Avoid.

    Durability wise... toucbscreen phones are a bit more delicate in general.

    Thanks for the advice everyone . I am slightly worried about the screen size of the E5 is it big enough so you can surf the internet properly?
