Philips recently introduced one of the first normal format mobile phones to sport a touch screen. The new 755 has a relatively large 65k color touch screen display, and as such, includes a stylus.

I like the cover on that, but Philips mobile phone UI's are notoriously sluggish....

Having said that, the stylus thing looks interesting - good if you get choccy all over your fingers.

Not for me I'm afraid looks too square and bulky...and Philips to me doesn't ooze mobile quality...bring on the Moto RAZR

...bring on the Moto RAZR

Which is a mega expensive V600...

I disagree mate this phone is far superior in design & quality to the old Moto V600, you have to admit the style is one of the best ever ...massively different from the V600...as for functions it has just about everything you need...it will be one of the years best sellers once released...all phones are generally next generation of the same technology just like cars...same engine with an upgrade etc but a far far better shell with some added new technology.

I know this is the Phillips thread (sorry Azda).. but featurewise its the same..... save for the colour external screen.

Yes it does look really nice, and that keypad looks awesome. But underneath its a V600. Like my V80 is....

There has been so many reports that i have read about the v600 splitting , even tho it has a metal shell...........have also read that orange have discontinued the v80?

K, the V3 (RAZR) is already out, availible at The Carphone Warehouse for an insane £399 sim free!!! Best seller? Don't think so, more of a luxury item with those who have more money than sense, much like Nokia 8850 and 8910 owners ;)
