Next G Blue Tick phones

**mudrat** · 11-04-08, 10:02 AM

I travel thru rural/Regional NSW at least once a week and need a phone that will get reception.

I am considering

Samsung A412
LG TU550 - although the more I read about this phone the leass I like it
Ericsson Z750i

but have read varying reports on the there reception, also other issues like software etc

the Nokia 6120 and E51 seems to be getting good reports, but are not blue tick phone, and wonder what the differrence is between these and the N95 which is a blue tick phone ?

Maybe if your going around in the car abit look for a phone with a external antenna connection.
This will help alot if you have a bigger antenna on your car.

This has an external antenna port but the coverage without it is pathetic. My grandfather got one, Telstra "guaranteed" it would work at his house and it doesnt. Sad part is my Vodafone (which has a pretty sub-standard network) does!
