Erm, about £40 lol. I don't want a really cheap phone, and i don't want an expensive one either. Just a nice enough phone with a nice camera lol.

How big do they turn out?

My iPhone camera is 2.0 megapixels and it's amazing quality, better than my old phone which was 5.2 megapixel.

They won't be very good quality. They will probably be grainy and a bit small.

Not really, but it depends on the phone itself. From what I have read Megapixels is how detailed it would be and how big the picture can get, not the quality.
As Ross has mentioned you can get lucky, but I would ask to see it first. I could get an example off my mums phone, but I dont know how haha.

I can't help you with 1.3 MP, but this is my 2 megapixel.. I find if I take a photo in daylight it's fine. But if I'm inside or it's getting dark it's fuzzy :3

1.3MP should be okay for putting pics on the Web. That is about equivalent to 1440x900 resolution.

It depends more on how good the lense is and things like that, so you probably get better pictures on a camera rather than a camera phone.

Get on Ebay and buy a Sony Ericsson K810i. it has 3.2 mp camera, mp3 player, etc etc, it's really easy to use looks great and its really durable.

you can pick a new one up for around £40 to £50 on Ebay.!!!

It's the best phone i've had out if a W910i, ROKR E8, and RAZR2. and only a third of the price.!!



and here's an example of a photo it takes:!!

Save up bit longer so you can buy a good phone, new or second hand that is more than 2megapixel.
