I got the most basic cellphone I could, and it's just fine for me.
The camera's a nice feature, but I already have cameras, and never have used the one on my phone. I don't write text messages, so I don't need a big keypad.
I guess it all boils down to what features you feel you need as to what's the "best".
I've got Verizon Wireless service, and ATT service on my business phone, and I'm perfectly content with both. If I leave my business phone, I have all the calls forwarded directly to my cellphone, so I don't miss calls.
