    Default Keep the Rokr E6 or get the A1200?

    So I just got the Rokr on Ebay last night. I didnt even get it in yet and I am having doubts because I have been searching for a good deal on a A1200, but came across a Rokr E6 with a 2 gig card and a car charger for $380 shipped so I got deal happy and bought it. But im not a big fan of the candy bar style phones. I really love the look of the A1200. I guess I will give it a chance when it comes in for a couple days. Anyone have personal experience with both of these phones?

    Well I guess it wasnt meant to be. The seller had issues with Ebay and is giving me my money back! Im getting the A1200!!! HOORAY!!

    The ming have an atractive design and works great overall BUT...

    The pros of the Rokr E6 against the Ming are:

    3.5mm headset jack
    7 hours of talktime
    Isn't a fragile cellphone
    More slim

    The pros of the Ming against the Rokr E6 are:

    Design
    Size
    More variety of Cases/Pouches


    I prefer a Rokr E6, both are great smartphones.

    Ha ha, you know its funny. I am going through Rokr withdrawl now. Now that the bid fell through, I wish it didnt. I really like the Rokr and I see that the Ming is pretty old and may have a US version soon.

    You know, I have had some crazy time trying to get a phone this week. So you know the story about the Rokr E6. I then figured I was getting the A1200 but after much consideration, I decided to go with a Sony Ericsson W850i.

    No offense to anyone here but I was never a fan of motorola until I discovered these Chinese phones. I always loved Sony and I found the w850i on Ebay for $193 shipped!!! But it was too good to be true. its been a day since I bought it, and my money was refunded back to me because the seller made a typo in the price.

    So now I am back to square one. Sure, I like the features of the Sony over both Motorolla's, but the price tag is high like the Rokr, and now Im back to thinking of the A1200.

    Im so confused!!! And I am beginning to hate Ebay but they have better prices than any store or online store.

    ebay is overrated =)

    Why? because you really don't know if its new or not...even though they SAID its new. It could've been a refurbished phone too. So either you go to HKS =) haha, like an online store, or a store somewhere where you live. Chances are, theres a warranty ont hem and you could ask them if anything is wrong too, so thats the good thing. If you find the right store, you'll get a pretty good price =) try it out!

    I only ebay something that I can't find outside, for a cheap price. if you look hard enough you'll find a cheap place.

    Yeah, I currently have a Ming but now that the E6 can be made quad band, I am very tempted... I kind of like the candy bar style myself. Sucks cause my Ming is only a couple months old...

    The Ming is not bad itself =). Since you just got the Ming, you might as well use it for a year or so until Motorola releases an even BETTER E6, with everything that you've always wanted. Plus, the E6 is hard to find any mods, while the Ming's mods are coming by pretty nicely =).

    Your choice, but if I were you I would stick with the Ming for now, use it to its fullest, then when the next E6 comes out than you can change! Unless you REALLY want the E6 lol

    Don't get me wrong, I love the Ming. I like it better than my previous phones- 8125, SX66, SMT5600, etc. I just really prefer the Candy bar style...
