Fun flip phones for teenagers
Cool designs, good quality cameras, fun games and multimedia options are what makes these flip phones just right for hard-to-please teens.

 
 
  Panasonic VS3

Panasonic's VS3 sports a 16 million-colour screen that looks ultra-sharp when viewing photos, browsing menus and playing the pre-installed game Sonic the Hedgehog.

The Good
Amazing screen quality
One-push button to auto open flip
Plenty of customisation options
Sega classic Sonic the Hedgehog included
1.3-megapixel camera takes sharp photos
The Bad
No Bluetooth
Limited to 32MB of internal memory
Lacks external display for caller ID

  Motorola RAZR V3 (Pink)

Motorola is adding a hot pink RAZR to its collection this summer. Although the components are exactly the same as the original V3, we think we'll still spot quite a few of these phones down Oxford and Chapel Sts.

The Good
 
 Striking, hot pink design
 Beautiful, large display
 External colour display
 Remarkably thin
The Bad
  Might be too wide for some
 Tricky to open the flip with one hand
 Nothing has been upgraded from the original RAZR

  Nokia 6101

Nokia has gone back to basics with the 6101 clamshell -- a well-made, easy to use phone that proves the value of doing the simple things well.

The Good
Finger-friendly keypad
Intuitive menu design
Very easy to use
The Bad
Battery cover easily scratched
Large external antenna
Camera performs poorly in low light conditions

Personally i would not recommend the RAZR. I just got rid of mine. I had to get it fixed 3 times in 6 months, the speakers on it were terrible, there was no point in even getting new ringtones. The camera was alright. The only good thing about it was that it was easy to put in your pocket and you could barely tell it was in there :S

      Nokia 6210 Navigator

      While the 6210 is solidly built and features fast performance, the lack of a lifetime subscription to turn-by-turn navigation robs the Navigator of what should make it unique in the market.

      There's nothing technically wrong with RAZR2 V9 Ferrari Special Edition but if you want to Ferrari-fie your phone there are cheaper and better ways of doing it. For free.

    • Nokia N85

      Nokia N85

      It's hard to knock a phone that has all the current popular technologies, but it would have still been great for Nokia to consider new technologies for this latest N-Series range, particularly a media sharing networking protocol.

    • LG KF390

      LG KF390

      Take out the Next G reception and you end up with a low quality handset at a mid-range price point. Still, it's great to see another blue tick phone for our friends in the bush to consider.

    • Nokia E66

      Nokia E66

      While we like the E71 better, the E66 is a great smartphone with class leading features. If you want the functionality of a business phone without the bulk of a PDA form factor, the E66 is the phone you've been looking for.
