christmas present for the boyfriend! Options

[transcendentalis...]

i'm getting my boyfriend a cell phone for christmas (though i'll probably be getting it to him awhile after just because i really want to make sure it's what he'd want). he's had his for a little more than a year and it is hellish old and dysfunctional to the max... and the battery and cover and everything just pop right off when you drop it.

he just uses his phone mainly for talking, so a long talk time would be nice. and of course, it has to be at least somewhat aesthetically pleasing. he likes flip phones or swivel ones more than others. his carrier is t-mobile.

any suggestions? post pictures if you'd like :)
it doesn't need to be a smartphone or anything flashy. basic and classic is good

at the moment, i'm thinking

Samsung SGH-E730

and let's try and keep costs to $450 or less!

the brother and my boyfriend are going to make me broke, haha.. i'm limiting myself to $600 for both of them put together, and i'm buying my older brother at least two pairs of jeans and either a sweater or shoes. i dunno yet!

does he want a flippy phone? slider?
oh and what service does he have?
Cause some phones are different for other companies.

My boyfriend's cellphone JUST BROKE LAST NIGHT and he's super sad.
I want to get him a new phone but i already bought him his northface and he doesn't want me to spend anymore ._.;;
