what phone to get?

It's time for me to get a new phone. I can't find anywhere on the net
where cellphones are reviewed (describing how pretty it is and what
the menu options are doesn't count as a review).

I care about two things:
1) Good signal / sound quality.
2) Reasonably robust design, in particular an antenna that does not
break off easily. But it should also be possible to drop the phone and
not have it break.

I have 3, vx4500s on my plan. The vx4500 has a stub antenna so there
shouldn't be issues with breakage I am a heavy user and do not have any
signal issues, it sounds good and has a speakerphone. The only real issue I
have is that color displays (on all phones) are not ready for prime time
because they wash out in bright lighting conditions.
