Oh one question though, I was informed by a friend that putting a big memory card will make the phone lag.. is this true? If yes will it lag all the time or lag when I just want to access the memory card?

Hello pro's, want to get a new hp for my better half as her phone on it's last legs. She's currently using Nokia 6288.


1. Brand. - No Pref

2. Budget. - 2k or less.

3. Specs. - She's not techie, so user-friendly. Good for texting & calls. Compact & sturdy. Stylish & professional (no pink phones just coz she's a girl, she needs to take it to work!). Good talk time is a plus. Plan is to buy the phone sometime between now & Sept, so any phone to be released soon can also recommend.

4. Type/Size. Slider preferred, if touchscreen bar is alright.

Red is most important specs. Please recommend 2008/09 models only.

The only phone I can think about it is "Samsung Star". For budget around RM 1k, they is not possible to get Touch phone with 5MP. Sorry dude. SE brand is even more impossible as they not out any full touch phone yet except Xperia which is far behind than your budget and I not recommended it due to it lagged issue.

Samsung Star Specification:
- 3 inch 262k WQVGA LCD
- 3.2MP camera fix focus (This phone is good under good sun condition, but not for night time as they don't have any flash)
- GSM phone (no 3G support)

* You may considered another similar phone, Samsung Star 3G (not yet release at Malaysia but already release at Singapore, this phone have LED flash, and 3G but smaller 2.8 inch QVGA 16M color screen and shall be around RM 1k to RM 1.1k)

For below 1K, I can't recommended any. [Maybe LG Viewty but this phone is kinda old already, it is 5mega pixel auto focus]

with 3G, then how about Samsung Star 3G (release soon)

If your budget around RM 1.7k then is more choices.

LG KC910 Renoir is RM 1.6 ~ 1.7k (This phone ok la, no comment ask I never try, and from internet, their 8mega quality is OK but not the best)
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

SE C510 Specification:
- 3.2 Megapixel auto focus with Dual Power LED Flash

Samsung Ultra Touch is out at Malaysia since April 2009, I am the owner of it, he he biggrin.gif official launch is RM 1899 and now around RM 1695 or less can get (price on May).

Samsung Jet not out at Malaysia yet, you can only get it at Singapore at the moment. This phone just release less than 2 weeks worldwide.

No issue using Singapore set at Malaysia. You may only face warranty issue, as I know Malaysia Samsung won't service any samsung phone not under FMG distributor. You may need bring back to Singapore if you face any issue during warranty period.

I am really happy with the Samsung Ultra Touch camera quality, the photos is stunning!

C510 and C702 both similar. C702 for me the design is extremely ugly. C702 more expensive due to it splash and dusk resistant case.

Another phone you may considered, I just miss out ..haha...

All new SE came with Adobe Flash like themes.. It is animated, each themes preloaded with different style of icons. (You shall at least seen 3 different kind of icons set in at least 3 type of flash themes)

Flash themes is difficult to re-install back as they store the flash file in different location which is not accessible by end user (unless you use 3rd party program manual access it)

All SE phone flash themes and games will missing once the phone has been hard reset by user. You still can get back if you updates the firmware.

please remember OS phones are not about how many ppl have it. Its about how you tweak it. My 5800 XM is totally different from all 5800 XM because i know what i am paying. You put any 5800 XM side by side mine will look better and more things to have fun or to do

Nokia 5800 is Symbian S60 v5 phone.

HTC Diamond is Windows Mobile 6.1 phone.

5800 do have office application, but I not sure it provide with editable version or not. If not you can purchase it (legal way la).

But if you need better office editing, I think Windows Mobile more suitable for you.

For price around RM 1.2k, not possible to get any new HTC windows mobile phone.

Sample HTC phone pricelist estimate:

HTC Touch HD - RM 3050
HTC Touch Diamond2 - RM 2550
HTC Touch Cruise - RM 1590
HTC Touch 3G - RM 1780
HTC Touch Viva - RM 1150 (this the only best suite you but I not recommended)

SE W995 is one of the greatest phone release by SE. Their 8.1 Megapixel is great and better than C905. One of the best SE Walkman series phone. biggrin.gif

Nokia 5730 looks like a XM version of E75. E75 is bad, the keypad, especially that QWERTY pad is crap, too hard to press and the phone didn't slide up which look really weird and not so convenient to use.

I recommended you take W995. But sorry as I know no SE Walkman, Cybershot series phone can read Excel or documents file. Only Nokia Symbian & Samsung Symbian is capable to read and edit office documents. All Samsung TouchWiz phone is capable of read only but not edit.

Even they not mention support, but it is support, I use b4 Pixon and Ultra Touch, and both support on it. smile.gif

- Samsung Jet (5MP, WiFi)
- LG Renoir (8MP, WiFi)

Viewty Smart - I like the design and interface, but review said the camera quality not good. (I never seen yet, I think not out yet also)

LG Arena - same interface as Viewty Smart, ok ... not bad....

No idea when Samsung Jet will be available. I believe soon.

Now Samsung really weird.

Samsung i8910HD already out at Malaysia but not in Singapore yet.

Samsung Jet out at Singapore but not yet Malaysia.

W995 is better than W705...

the better specs is W995 has decent camera which is 8.1mpx.
it also has various camera features such as autofocus, LED flash , Geo-tagging, face detection, image stabilize
Walkman 4.0 music player with Shake control and SensMe [new version of walkman]



so i think if you have money.. you should buy this phone..

lol... GPS actually charge the connection when locking to sattelite only[via gprs connection] ..

as well as nokia[but there are alternatives,which is called crime].. in nokia also like that..

but if you have java apps that have map.. for sure you dont need to download map again..

.. but if in symbian.. there are various apps such as garminxt,sygic,Ndrive,papago and manymore..

SE has it is own limitivity..it only can install java apps[except for SE that support Symbian and WM]

Even they not mention support, but it is support, I use b4 Pixon and Ultra Touch, and both support on it. smile.gif

One more question, can w995 use for msn like some of the nokia phones? For the GPS, can i use it for car driving?

Coming down to Singapore buy lo... hehe

I just went out to Singapore yesterday and have a chances to test on it, price is SGD $600.00 (without contract) now.

Overall is smooth but the Music Player at Landscape mode is not smooth. I believe future firmware will made this phone perfect!

800 Mhz and it still lags? sounds like the touchwiz 2 OS was rushed haha. I also heard they removed alot of those fancy transition effects.. but heck i'd probably get bored or even irritated with them after a while..

600 is a good deal.. but i wanna trade in my w705 so im waiting for a shop here to pick up the phone. And i doubt samsung will release much os updates... do they even support os updates like apple? they churn out so many phones a year, i though that once a phone is out the door .. thats all ur gonnna get blink.gif

Cover flow to me is overrated anyways... what i wanna know is if the jet behaves like SE phones ie drag and drop into folders and creating playlists simply from the folders themselves... sinc emost of my songs are all over the place. I seem to like the SE media menu alot..

Yaloh! They are rush out!

I seen prototype set video before, that one is more effect add on it and can select which effect you want.

Final one all remove and left only one selection, you only can either select with effect or disable it.

Kinda disappointed actually.

Samsung touch player menu is good also, as long your song with proper ID tag, you can just play from album or artist selection. No need to do playlist.

Oopss, N73 user searching for new phone. biggrin.gif

Anyway, in my opinion, for:
1. Music & games: 3.5mm jack, overall better audio experience and N-gage of 5730 XM should be very good.
2. Great built quality and classy look: It's a E-series, classy business phone, very good built quality, nice look and a sense of class.

I personally prefer 5730 XM because I prefer musics and games. tongue.gif

sorry shaun.. this is not to offend your recommendation
well i'm not recommending to get 3500c..
the camera is very poor..
go for good phone.. such as 3120c ..

it has 3G and it has two cameras..
one is main camera[2mp.. and it is very good], the other is front camera[use for 3g/take front picture,it 0.3MP]
the speaker quality is good..


3120c is the right choice thumbup.gif [or maybe other phone hmm.gif ]

For your budget it will still be Nokia 5800XM.

I recommend u to consult a symbian expert you will see how amazing 5800XM can be. I bet after that u wont use SE ever again thats wat happen to many of us.

SE is out a Symbian S60 v5 phone call "Satio" but it won't be price below RM 1.5k.

Nokia 5800XM is the most valuable Symbian S60 v5 touch phone.

Beside 5800XM, the following phone is base on Symbian S60 v5 as well:
- Nokia N97 (around RM 2.4k)
- Nokia 5530 (not out yet, no 3G)
- Samsung i8910HD (RM 2.7k ++ for 8GB version! I love this phone, but the MAD price is a NO NO for me)
- SE Satio (not out yet)

What's a recommended phone in terms of STYLE within a budget of RM 1.5k? No flip phones, phone will be used for calls & texting. Phone is for a working professional woman.

W595 is cheaper - around RM 600++
W705 - RM 800++

W705 is better.. it has WiFi.. while the W595 hasnt...
so W705 is worth for money...

that is ap price..

the ori is W595 - RM 860

W705 - RM 1080

hmm..that price is taken from e_trade_pj's and twinkles' price..

so if you want W705.. you can arrange the COD place with him..
just pm twinkles
*twinkles is one of the best seller in LYN garage sales..so dont worry

if you want the W595...
you can pm e_trade_pj
he has shop at kelana jaya giant and putra heights giant..
remember that he only sells original set..
and his shop is in giant market..not outside the giant market..
so to have special price.. make sure pm him first

what is your budget?

W595 RM780(ori) RM630(AP)

W705 RM1050(Ori) RM895(AP)

if your budget allows, go for W705, it has Wifi, which is absent in W595; also W705 comes with LED flash, very useful when it could serves as torch light

Below 1k hard to get Camera 5MP... Maybe you go for Nokia 5800 Xpress Music.

if your budget can up to 1.5k

Can refer to this.

about the flash ... you know all current mobile phone's flash simply LIT up when turned on? This makes it very hard to take portraits as the subject will usually squint their eyes. sad.gif
i would prefer to have flash like the old SE K800i that only flashes when you take a pic instead of lighting up when flash is turned on.

lol.. in nokia [especially newer phone,Nseries].. there are option to turn on the flash , turn off the flash , and auto..

if you dont want flash.. simply turn off the flash...


well in K800 there are red light when taking pictures..

this feature same as N82..

k800 and N82 use Xenon flash..

unlike the Led flash that will do like you said in bolded words above

the difference between C901 and n82 is your limitation.

N82 u can enchance your mobile experience with the symbian OS when SE if its design for A it can only do A and nothing more when N82 can do A,B,C,D,E,F,G just by installing.

With that bugdet and good phone camera as your main criteria, the best is still N82. There are better hp cameras but you cant get at that price.

well you can get Nokia N79 ..

it is good phone..

it is better than N82 becoz

N79 has
-better video recording.. at night and also day[at night.. led flash help in video recording]
-has fm transmitter
-has better interface.. because using Feature Pack 2 [newer than N82[FP1]..]
-has xpress-on-cover[change theme automatically when changing another back cover.. can do anytime,anywhere]
-has better look.. more stylish..
-better keypad

N82 has
-better camera[for taking pictures]
-has 3d accelerator
-it use dual cpu.. so faster performance

N79, but unrecommended.

BTW the N82`s dual CPU does not support multithread, so actually the N97 is faster by 30Mhz or so, which means really nothing in the real world

ORI is original phone that sell by authorized seller..

means.. if nokia.. its been selled by nokia authorized seller..

and its have orginal accesories.. and the important thing is the warranty by Nokia...

the authorized distributor for Nokia malaysia is - Sapura , Zitron , Avaxx


AP means.. the phone that is not sell by authorized seller..

means not distributed by authorized seller..

the AP set.. has no Nokia warranty.. but warranty by AP company.. such as COMSAT , CSL , TELSTRA .. etc...

usually the phone is from outside Malaysia

Basicly a TD with a lager and wide screen, 5mp cam and mem card slot. TouchFlo 3D2? Well, u can get that on ur TD with some mods

Btw, TP2 more expensive than TD2. Still, I`d rather get an N97 for that sort of money

Any Nokia E or Nseries phone will suite you, remember change your SMS storage to external Memory, by doing this, you will have plenty of room for SMS.

Or Nokia 6120 and 5320XM. This two phone is the most cheapest Symbian S60 v3 phone available in the market now. Around RM650 --> RM 700

Hi, I'm hoping to get a new phone under RM800, with the following features ;

a) Huge inbox (something like nokia's with their 1000s of messages, i kinda receive a lot of work-related messages and it's an issue to delate them sometimes)
b) Decent camera (take pics)
c) Good battery life

Walkman, games etc are not required as I don't use them.

Any recommendations? Thanks in advance for advice given.

about the price

W902 - RM 885 (AP) - RM 965 (Original)

What is actually the advantage of Symbian Smartphones over featured phones like SE? Is this because you can make your phone go pass it's limits with functions with installations of 3rd party programs?
*
symbian is OS[operating system]
no.. symbian phone is a smartphone..
it can install many apps.. including java software too...

so.. its more powerful than the phone with no - OS

the SE that is symbian is SE Idou and Xperia.....

most of SE isnt smartphone.. .. thats why people like to use.. because its easier and more simple..

but for me .. Nokia Symbian is the best... wink.gif

3. Specs - Similar to 5800XM. Preferably GPS using satellite.
4. Type/Size - N/A. Main concern is the GPS and sms user friendly. Maybe touch screen too.

If you can wait, then wait for E72. E72 is upgrade version of E71. (Actually basically they only change the 3.2MP camera to 5MP and some layout design changing)

W980 is one of good phone.. but that is expensive..

you can buy new one for only RM 640 with free 8GB M2
pm twinkles..
he is a trusted seller

for me.. hp that good for below RM 500 is 3120classic , 5310XM..

if you mind topping up for RM 280..
you can buy N78 - RM 780 with free 2GB MicroSDHC
Features :-
- GPS with A-GPS
- WiFi
- S60 V3 with Feature Pack 2
- 3.2 mpx with LED flash..
- nice performance..

free GPS sounds impossible...cz most of da phones comes with AGPS so u r charged for data usage.

my question is, is it worthy to spend RM600 to get OMNIA II instead of Jet?
600 can bring me:
MUCH bigger screen
better user experience
more flexibility in usage of phone (can install apps)
of cz can show off too

For a newbie anything is impossible. For most phones A-gps is an option. U use integrated gps its FREE if u enable a-gps then it come with a fee to improve lock time.

Help please!

1. Brand: (following order of preference) Nokia, HTC, Samsung

2. Budget: no more than RM1500

3. Specs: Must have good music playback (just like my old W810i biggrin.gif), WiFi enabled, at least 3.2-5 MP, GPS.. And i wonder if I can also ask for a durable phone haha (i tend to drop my phones a lot)

4. Type/Size: Preferably candybar BUT those not with a full touchscreen. Slide phones are ok too wink.gif

So far I've only looked at N79, HTC Touch 3G (the sound was quite bad), and those Samsung touchscreen phones lol

Please help.. Music playback is quite important for me coz i use it when i'm commuting and studying. Thanks all!

consider N79. HTC phones mostly are prone to damage if drop alot due to touch screen

Hi i'm currently using SE W830c...feel like changing it (lolx)


1. Brand: Still SE (cuz of i like their design)

2. Budget: Around 700 will do. ( i dun have that much of money)

3. Specs: I don't use mp3, ipod, etc...so i prefer to listen using my phone...and i like to take photos too! (lazy to bring camera each time)

4. Type/Size: my previous used one Nokia 5300 and SE W830c were quite bulky..so i would prefer if it's slim...and..i think i can have another slide phone for the third time (lolx)..though i think flip phone is quite good (but i like large screens...i have lots of pretty wallpaper and sreensaver to look at)

I would be glad if u all can give roughly ideas on what is the next type i can consider to buy (or you would like to sell those to me in cheaper price) i would appreciate it very much. I think SE w995 and w910i's designs are quite good; but i have a fren who disagreed with w995 and 2 who said w910i sux (alwiz hang)....so yeah?


Thanks alot xD i've been considering buying new phones d but i just need extra opinion!

w995 is not in your budget...it is RM 1700+++

the handphone[slide] that suits your budget is SE W910 , SE W595

and between SE W910 and SE W595 .. W595 is better than W910 becoz.
- cool design.
- has 3.2 mpx camera[higher resolution than SE W910]

the other features.. is almost same as W910

Hi, I'm hoping to get a new phone under RM800, with the following features ;

a) Huge inbox (something like nokia's with their 1000s of messages, i kinda receive a lot of work-related messages and it's an issue to delate them sometimes)
b) Decent camera (take pics)
c) Good battery life

Walkman, games etc are not required as I don't use them.

Any recommendations? Thanks in advance for advice given.

actually.. your details of your requirement isnt enough
anyway
i advice you better go for HTC



between HTC TOuch HD and Pro2 ..

hmm
if you like to use qwerty keyboard and at same time virtual keyboard too.. you can go for HTC touch Pro2..
well it is very hard to compare those two.. bcoz the specs almost same.. except

- HTC touch HD -5mpx
- HTC touch Pro2 -3.2 mpx..

about the quality of image .. better go for HTC touch HD... because Pro2 sucks in camera sweat.gif

but i'm sure u are not concern about the camera.. bcoz it is smartphone.. and not more to casual and entertainment

mind that megapixel is just resolution .. not the quality of the camera...

hmmm below 1k.. you can get N82
-good 5 megapixel camera
-has Wlan
-gps with a-gps
-it is Symbian[important for me]
-has 3d accelerator
-dual cpu processor

all the new batch no problem already. Logic is like u give a cheap sniper rifle to a pro they can still kill. You give a newbie a cheap sniper rifle they tell u how sux it is because they do not know to use it.

*
hmm.. simple...

SE C901
- No OS[symbian,windows mobile.. etc...]
- M2 memory card[can upgraded up to 8GB]
- No WLAN
- 5MP camera with AutoFocus , Xenon Flash
- Camera Features[Geotagging,face detection,smile detection]
- No GPS
- RM 915 (AP) RM 1120 (Original)

N82
- Smartphone, with Symbian OS 9.2 rel. 3.1 [S60V3FP1]
- microSD[can upgraded up to 16GB]
- has WLAN
- has GPS with A-GPS
- 5MP camera with autofocus, Xenon flash
- Dual ARM 11 332 MHz processor
- 3D Graphic Accelerator
- RM 990 Silver ，RM 1030 Black RM 1300 (Original)

In my conclusion, N82 is better than C901.. and i will choose N82..
Despite the various camera features in C901 , for me a phone with OS is better
because i'm symbian lover.. and phone with no OS is very boring...

N82 is far better that C901 in many aspects
- performance[Processor and Accelerator]
- camera quality
- OS
- features[WLAN and GPS]
- and many more whistling.gif

*
yeah.. i admit that it has small keypad...
the other alternatives is Nokia N79
the price is about the same with N82

the specs also almost same but :-
N79
- is using Symbian OS 9.3 with S60 3.2 UI[S60V3FP2]
- has XpressOnCovers[can change back cover,everytime you change the back cover.. the theme will changed too..]
- has nice interface[new Feature pack]
- 5MP camera , with autofocus , LED flash 2nd generation
- has FM transmitter

so when comparing N79 and N82..
- N79 better in video recording[at night[with LED flash helps] and day too]
- N79 has nicer interface[i mean the UI]
- N79 has XpressOnCovers,nice
- N79 has FM transmitter[can hear mp3 at radio,just transmit it from hp]
- N82 better in taKing photos[because of Xenon Flash too]
- N82 has 3D grapic accelerator[actually not much diff]
- N82 has better processor[actually not much diff too]


N79 is newer and N82 is older.. but the price is almost same
both - RM 990 - AP
N79 - RM 1150 - ORI
N82 - RM 1300 - ORI

the nearest competitor for N79 is N85
N85
- same OS and FP with N79
- 5MP camera , with autofocus , LED flash 2nd generation
- has FM transmitter
- using Active Matrix OLED[AMOLED] screen - the most beautiful screen[lol]... and it saves battery a lot
- slide and stylish phone
- the rest all the specs almost same with N79[except for xpressoncovers]

N85
- RM 1280 - AP
- RM 1499 - ORI

If not you can get SE P1i, G900. Cheapest is G705 but it's not a smartphone.

actually i'm not sure what are your requirements in phone..

basically you say you want phone that has gps and nice UI.

definitely for me nokia smartphone[with symbian OS] is better

so
i recommend you to go for N79 or N85

hey guys, i need one business phones. i never use smartphones before.
i kinda set my eyes on HTC Touch Pro and SE Xperia X1. HTC TOuch Pro 2 is too expensive for me sweat.gif

both phones can get around Rm 1400++ right? so i kinda need the PRo and Cons too. Specs-wise they're about the same, considering X1 also designed by HTC?

Thanks guys! I'm thinking maybe N79.. Since I'm gonna enter the working world soon ( cry.gif ) I might as well get a more presentable phone if you know what I mean wink.gif

However, my bf's sis told me that multimedia content wise.. SE phones generally perform better! Is that true? You see, I'm looking for a well-rounded phone.. For me, the most important components are music playback, the camera, WiFi, email etc.

Edited: My mom contacted a local phone seller.. He told her 8 out of 10 owners of ori N79 models complain that their phone hangs easily. Is this true? cry.gif

in most situation Nokia Symbian perform better than SE. If you want to really enjoy your phone consult a symbian expert. Most ppl that switch never goes back to SE.
Especially working. With the right software it can really help yourself with daily life like mine

Hi all,

Would like you guys to recommend me a new HP. No nokia please.

Budget: 1.2k Max
Usages: Camera, Music
Softwares/Features: None in particular, but GPS is a welcomed feature. WiFi is not a concern. QWERTY keyboard is not necessary.
Design: Rugged: I'm clumsy. Clamshell/candybar/slide is OK by me.

Note: I'm currently using a modded K810i with modded camera and sounds. So I'm very particular about these two features.

Also, I've been eyeing over LG, particularly LG viewty.

I'm not in a rush btw, should I wait a while since I heard a few exciting models are coming out from SE? Is there any hope that the new models will fall within my budget?

Thanks!

HTC dream is a freakin awesome fone tho.. but sadly doesnt have flash, and camera performs poorly in lowlight situations..

@pakhusin,

How does the picture quality compares to that of c905? I can't access the images from my office.

Also, since C901 is a camera-centric phone, is it possible to mod the audio files?

i dunno about modding acoustics but C901 loudspeaker less "umph" compared to my C702.
but it's loud despite being thin..

err.. there are reviews by china website (forgot the save the link) that shows C901 picture is somehow better (more details) than C905 eventhough you resize the 5MP C901 to 8MP on computer and compare one to one with C905 fresh pics..

but the phone does not come with USB cable or M2 cards.
AP price around RM760.. buy fast bfore hari raya price increase..

OK thanks for the info. Anyways, any other suggestion besides this? I'm trying to make a list of the phones that are worth to buy and I will go check it out myself.

What about Samsung? I love their modern design. SE's design kinda old school.

I'm seriously considering the Samsung Ultra Touch. What's the price for it now? How about the accessories e.g protector

But many said that it is slow. I don't care about it not having WiFi. But from reviews, it took good pictures.

What about Samsung Jet? I know the price is over my budget but how does it compare to the Ultra Touch?

Omnia HD is probably the best 8mp shooter currently brows.gif

Adapted from gsmarena
QUOTE(GSMARENA @ Aug 13 2009, 10:51 AM)
The image quality the Samsung i8910 Omnia HD produces is pretty much as good as we have seen on a mobile phone. The color rendering is spot-on, contrast and dynamic range are also great. Fine detail is also very good although if anything could be improved - that's exactly it. In comparison to the Sasmung i8510 INNOV8 one can notice that the INNOV9 delivers more detail in the center of the frame than the Omnia HD. The touchscreen handset however strikes back with better corner sharpness. That difference in the sharpness of the two is probably due to the differences in the lenses used.

The colors of the photos, taken with the INNOV8, are more saturated than those of the Omnia HD. We did mention that when you browse the photos on the Omnia they are automatically boosted to look more appealing but when downloaded to a computer they retain their original "natural" looks and feel. This gives you more options for post processing but if you aren't into that the results might not look as good as the INNOV8 to you. We guess you can increase the saturation and contrast in camera to achieve similar results - the settings are all there for you to tweak.

Certainly the best part about the Omnia HD camera (and the INNOV8 but we have already discussed that) is there are no major flows of any kind. No traces of oversharpening, no lack of contrast and no excessive noise. Plus, getting the exposure right at all times makes sure most of the photos are keepers.

Verdicts on G705 from my friend:

Easy to use
Simple & fast
Get job done

If these are what you are looking for, then G705 is OK for you. My friend also said he don't want to change to other phone. The G705 has all he needs.

Wah.. ur budget quite close dy to C901..
For sony ericsson model, the best camera i think is C901

sample picture by me
» Click to show Spoiler - click again to hide... «

bought 2 weeks ago with AP price = RM760, without cable and M2. I bought at Kuantan, kompleks Teruntum.
M2 you can bought online here at garage sales.. 4GB is around RM60 include postage..
cable u can use any previous SE model if u already got one before..

so far problem free, no BROD issue after 2 weeks without turn off or restart.. i just use and charge.. battery life for medium usage is 2 days.

info here: http://www.gsmarena.com/sony_ericsson_c901-2671.php

Except C901, i dont find any SE models that is slim, got nice camera, and got xenon flash unsure.gif
also it got smile shutter too.. brows.gif

At first, i wanna suggest the T707 dedicated thread at here, but since there are not many users yet,
u might need to do a little research by ur own..
for info, T707 only does 15fps @ QVGA and you can use the led as video light.
15fps for me is a big no.. but if you think clamshell design is more important than good specs, then go for it..
maybe got maria sharapova video inside? laugh.gif

Hi, I'm planning to buy either :

1) Iphone 3GS,
2) Nokia N-97, or
3) HTC Touch Pro 2

Wanna ask anyone's personal experience on any of these phones ( what you like and dislike about your phones? are there any problems after using for a while? etc).

I've tested the nokia and iphone and i feel like the nokia's touch screen is not so sensitive compared to iphone. I would like to know if its really this way or it was just my friend's nokia got problem.

Any reviews would be much appreciated smile.gif

u can try sony ericsson c901. it got xenon flash and focus assist led lights.
other features; Smile shutter, BestPic, Smart Contrast, Face detection, PhotoFix as well as geo-tagging
ap set costs around rm760
comes with earphone and charger only. usb cable and m2 are not included.

(all hp maybe price increased cos raya is coming, better buy fast, any brands also got price increased).
now is okay.. dun buy during ramadan, raya and after raya. unless u found shop that sell lower price than now.. nod.gif

for me, if wanna buy hp that costs more than RM1k,
i'll buy nokia..

i only buy SE phones that priced below RM1k..
why? because Nokia phones can do more things, thanks to symbian OS..
nod.gif

N86 camera compared to W995 camera? hmm.gif
I think N86 camera more superior. nod.gif
audio quality is subjective.. unlike camera can see which is better

Since u are using c901, wanna ask how is the build quality? Better than low end nokia smartphone such as 6220c?
How is the UI? Responsive?


btw,
how long will it for the price to settle down after raya?

i dunno about how fast is 6220c, but both 6220c and C901 cannot do WLAN or wifi. Go for N82 if you want wifi, but the price is now around RM1000 for ap set.
I still have C702 (2008 phone) it's using DB3150 platform, very slow compared to new C901 (2009 phone), which is using new platform DB3210.
3D games also alot faster in C901. I mean really more faster..

firmware is also quite stable, C901 has no big problem like auto restart or auto-turn off..
Audio quality is okaylah.. It's Sony laugh.gif
But loud speaker grill is located at bottom part.. The shape of the loudspeaker makes it sounds abit distorts if you put the phone on a table..
When u angkat the phone up, sounds is very much similar like my C702.. just the grill design makes it's different..
Still can hear because the speaker grill is curvy shape.. When put phone on surface, it'll not totally block sound coming out..

the price question i dunno..
usually when festive season is coming, alot of ppl buy new phones, can show off to cousins during balik kampung laugh.gif
high demands + low supply = price increase lah

better buy now. still not ramadan yet.. tongue.gif

I totally forgot what i am looking for(stability) before u mention the auto-restart thingy.

i bought an AP nk 5130 for an expensive rm440 (kena cheat by seller)

but the worse thing is, it auto restarting like no tomorrow everytime i zoom in the picture that i have just taken.
when the batt is totally discharged, it will hang when i plug in the charger and switch on the phone. Nokia should call it 5130 XpressRestart or something like that. Dang..

Besides, it has a Super Duper Laggy camera. My gf nk 6300 which is released years ago is 3 times better than my newer 5130.
No active standby..
Lousy battery life.. Medium usage only last me 1 n half day

the only best thing that it got is good music playback quality but nokia coupled it with lousy bass-less earphone.
Feel like i bought an mp3 player cum phone, not the other way round

want to dump that phone

Since my budget max is 800
i cant afford n79/ n82..but both of them is my 1st in my list when i want to get a new phone
another way is to stick with my 5130 till n82/n79 dropped to rm800 but i think it gonna takes forever.

when the batt is totally discharged, it will hang when i plug in the charger and switch on the phone. Nokia should call it 5130 XpressRestart or something like that. Dang..

Besides, it has a Super Duper Laggy camera. My gf nk 6300 which is released years ago is 3 times better than my newer 5130.
No active standby..
Lousy battery life.. Medium usage only last me 1 n half day

the only best thing that it got is good music playback quality but nokia coupled it with lousy bass-less earphone.
Feel like i bought an mp3 player cum phone, not the other way round

want to dump that phone

Since my budget max is 800
i cant afford n79/ n82..but both of them is my 1st in my list when i want to get a new phone
another way is to stick with my 5130 till n82/n79 dropped to rm800 but i think it gonna takes forever.
*
sure bo.both my mom and dad are using the phone but din face any of the prob u stated,a bit of lag maybe yes

btw both are ori sets

hi guys,
i'm a current motorola handphone user and would like to buy a new handphone at sungai wang, most likely tomorrow
well, i have experience using nokia handphones too, so maybe some of you would like to help me out with my specs to scout for some reasonably priced handphones

well, also, maybe some of you would like to mention the pro's and cons of choosing either brands (and types: e.g nokia 5310xm vs Sony Ericson c901) of handphones as well cos i'm not really a handphone person and may get conned easily...haha

many thanks in adv

1. Brand.
nokia/motorola
2. Budget.
around rm 500
3. Specs.
camera (around 2~3mp), mp3
4. Type/Size. (Candybar, Clamshell etc...)
preferably slim and light

also, any reputable shops over there you could recommend me to purchase from?

cheers...=)

p.s. i really am looking into nokia 5310 xm...but the cons have not been really mentioned (until another person just recently complained about his AP version of it...XD)

just added to avoid confusion:
any other comparisons which is better for quality in comparison for pricing with the nokia 5310 xm (just because it is a different brand)?=)
meaning, as in i'm paying the same price for a nokia 5310xm but for a different brand product which has better specs than what the nokia 5310 xm can offer?

i answer this question only.
Honestly i like Nokia 5310xm design, red is sooo cool!

pic related

I was looking for it too last time, but couldnt find any.. but that was way before I bought C702..
But if you compare specs head to head with SE C901, the Nokia couldnt stand a chance..

Nokia 5310xm:
Key features
* 9.9 mm slim and lightweight
* 3.5 mm standard jack
* Lots of preloaded applications
* 2" 16M color display with QVGA resolution
* Ambient light sensor
* Decent keypad
* Bluetooth with A2DP
* S40 5th edition user interface
* Stereo FM radio with RDS
* Dedicated music keys
* microSD card slot (2GB memory card included)
Disadvantages
* Mediocre camera 2MP with no flash or auto focus, really slow
* Tri-band only
* No 3G
* Memory card slot under the battery cover
* Inadequate QCIF video recording
* Uneven backlighting
above info is quoted from gsmarena.com http://www.gsmarena.com/nokia_5310_xpressm...-review-203.php


user posted image
Sony Ericsson C901
* Auto-focus 5MP camera with Xenon flash and LED focus assist light, Smile shutter, BestPic, Smart Contrast, Face detection, PhotoFix as well as geo-tagging.
* Video stabiliser, Video recording, Red-eye reduction, as well as Video and Picture blogging capabilities.
*QVGA video recording at 30fps. (I hope it was VGA, but QVGA is good enough for me becos i rarely records video with hp)
* 3.5G
* Ambient light sensor
*Motion sensor (accelerometer), can play motion sensing games (play bowling like u play bowling in real life thumbup.gif )
above info is my personal review.. becos i cant find any professional review yet sweat.gif

Price i think for Nokia around RM470~RM500 (AP set), while for C901 is around RM750~RM780 (AP set)
If you had extra money, go for the Sony. Seriously, music is not an issue for a sony phone. Just get a pair of walkman in-ear headphones. brows.gif

hey pakhuisin,
thanks for your detailed explanation on both handphones...=)
still, i was worrying on some people may take my example too literal and i guess i was right...haha
although i mentioned SE c901 there, i wasn't really looking into it (i just used it as a comparison example for two different handphones)

well, one of my main reasons is budget constrains...(not brand loyalty), so...yea

of course, for a better price comes a better product, so its understandable

well, video recording isn't one of my main interest for a handphone, but i would like to have decent pictures...(leave video recording for cameras...it's their job anyway)...the pictures don't need to be a masterpiece as in life like, but clear will do...get me?XD

so, any other comparisons which is better for quality in comparison for pricing with the nokia 5310 xm (just because it is a different brand)?=)
meaning, as in i'm paying the same price for a nokia 5310xm but for a different brand product which has better specs than what the nokia 5310 xm can offer?

still, i really did appreciate what you had posted up previously...good job...=)

It's okay.. Ppl buy phones according to budget too.. Including me.. If i had money, I'll buy not just one phone, but many2 high end phones available on market.. because there is no perfect phone..

For around RM500 budget, you can take a look here, i'm not promoting his sales, just tumpang refer phones pricing only..
http://forum.lowyat.net/index.php?act=ST&f=72&t=1124314
but since you are not into phones, i'm sure you cant differentiate which phones is better spec'd than 5310xm rite? laugh.gif

user posted image
for nokia 6120, priced RM496 according to that seller, is quite better spec than 5310xm too.. My friend got using it last time, it was a pretty fast phone too..
camera got LED..
refer professional review here http://www.gsmarena.com/nokia_6120_classic-review-161.php


user posted image
or from SE phones, u can get K770i, RM484 according to that seller price..
screen abit tiny, but the 3.2MP camera really give nice pictures. Because of it's lens size to mega pixels ratio..
U know what i mean, ya if 10MP camera but with tiny lens also i doubt it can give high quality image..
the K770i is 3.2MP camera, while those nokia mentioned before only got 2MP..
image quality wise, K770i better lah..
K770i also doesnt have joystick anymore.. Sony replaced it with d-pad. so less prone to joystick damage..

for sound of course, with sony, not an issue lol..

so pakhuisin,
in overall, it sounds like SE k770i is the better choice out there? 20 bucks difference...lol

if i were to find these phones in retail outlets (as aforementioned, i will be heading to sungai wang to make my purchases), will the price quoted be anywhere near it?XD

yea, i'm a blur sotong when it comes to phones...so...any opinion is gold to me...=p

ya.. price is more or less the same..
hard for me to choose between those two phones actually..
fast S60 symbian- i'll take nokia
good picture- i'll take K770.. hands down

symbian phones can do alot of things.. like viewing word documents, excel, pdf and such things.
while the sony is limited to java applications only, quite boring too..
but tell me how many will choose to open word document and view it on tiny screen instead of pc, rite?

i guess you'll deal with pictures more than word docs in a handphone rite? haha..

bear in mind, u may need to allocate budget for memory card as well..
i dont know whether above price is including memory card or not..

hey pakhusin,
yea, i've read some reviews on the 6120 vs the k770i
a lot of people had been mentioning on the speed of browsing the internet and overall, giving better reviews than the k770i phone, just somehow 6120 is the better choice for the majority

anyway, i think i'll still take the k770i over it cos i find those features that people had been saying for the 6120 is kind of irrelevant to my needs i guess...so, yea...

the k770i is the better phone in comparison to the 5130xm?=)

(the AP price difference for the 6120 nokia phone is much more significant comparing to the k770i SE phone though)

oh, and please note that i MIXED up the code for the 5310 and 5130 phones, i wanted to mention the 5130 xm...sheesh...lolz

i'll take C901, mainly because of its xenon flash.
C903 gps is fun too.. but it doesnt help much..
ya you can run wayfinder navigator, but it requires data.. data means money.. you can save a little by preload malaysian maps.. but leceh la..

i had a C702 with gps equipped.. so i know what a SE GPS can offer..
mainly for free GPS applications, it's only fun to do this..

also slider phone vs candybar type.
u need to be extra careful with slider type.. i mean not just C903, but with any slider phone...

OMG, you messed up the numbers.. but i blame nokia for that.. Damn, the numbers are really confusing..
5130xm is newer than 5310xm, but for appearance.. I'll take that sexy 5310xm..
basically both are the same spec, but only different body and screen..
price wise, 5130xm abit cheaper..

Tomorrow u go try these two phones, see which one suits you more.
Also, if the shop got 6210c and K770, ask for 'test-drive' too.. hehe..

Any SE or nokia phones with memory card will do i think.
Btw within your budget, see this person question, its the same as yours http://forum.lowyat.net/index.php?showtopi...post&p=28041141
btw, i can give you free solutions to it,
why dont you save your messages on pc instead,
if you are using SE phone, you can use MyPhoneExplorer to backup all data, contacts, calendars, sms etc.. icon_idea.gif

Actually, i like camera phone and love SE, second choice is Nokia. I'm considering SE C901 and Nokia 5800 MX. My place here i can get SE C901 between RM750 ~ RM850(AP) and Nokia 5800 MX for RM1050(AP). What do you think?? notworthy.gif

Which should i buy or got other alternative? This time i really don't want to buy a phone with tons of problems so really need a good advise.

if u love taking pictures C901 does the job well, also the firmware is stable and no BROD occurs to me yet..
you can find pictures by c901 here

Nokia 5800xm is a great nokia phone.. suitable if you always need to online.. You can ask Nokia sifu in the 5800xm thread..
For camera, not that bad also.. At least I think it's better than my C702 pictures..
can see the pictures by 5800xm here

For camera, not that bad also.. At least I think it's better than my C702 pictures..
can see the pictures by 5800xm here

Thanks a lot. I think i prefer SE C901 over Nokia 5800 MX as C901 picture is far more better quality compare to 5800 MX(Maybe is the pixel..) But what about overall? By the way, how long already since you use C901? Oh what's the use of google map in C901?? Need $$$ to use?

Any SE or nokia phones with memory card will do i think.
Btw within your budget, see this person question, its the same as yours http://forum.lowyat.net/index.php?showtopi...post&p=28041141
btw, i can give you free solutions to it,
why dont you save your messages on pc instead,
if you are using [b]SE phone, you can use MyPhoneExplorer to backup all data, contacts, calendars, sms etc..  icon_idea.gif [/B]

to be honest, backup is a good idea,
I have transfererred messages, contacts and all datas.. From a K320i to C901,
Amazingly all messages date are still intact.. (same time, same day as originals)

its quite useful for a person who likes to update firmware too.
because even if you transfer messages to memory card,
after fw update, the phone will not be able to read..

the only solution is to backup to computer using that software and restore it back to phone after fw updates

it's a good phone, keypad very big, suitable for orang tua..
but please read my post about my mum's 3110c here (post #57)
dont get me wrong, maybe it's time already the phone got spoiled..
my mum used it for about 1 year already..
but i think 1 year is still considered new woh.. sad.gif

w595 quite nice music centric phone, stereo speakers. Easier said, it does whatever things about music, and does it well. icon_rolleyes.gif

But u might want to consider other thing as well, it has no 3g front camera, no camera lens protection, no flash or led light, poor video recording QVGA @ 15fps.

btw, W595 now cheap cheap only woh..
RM630~RM650 can get for full package of AP set.

I'm using Digi, so no 3G front camera is definitely fine with me... (cant use it anyway, hahaha)... i'm currently using Nokia 6288 (kinda old, but nice to use, jus tht recently the software starts getting "crazy", cannot copy/move files, and hang when take pic, tht gives me a very good excuse to get a new phone tongue.gif ), if the photo & video quality is more or less like 6288, I can deal with tht... Apart from that, is there any other complaints on W595? (esp software prob)
Anyway, RM650 is a very ideal price for me... hehehe... laugh.gif

then you should also consider N79.. I've read good comments in N79 thread, they said after update phone.. become faster and no hang anymore..
N79 = 1040
N85 = 1300
N86 = 1600
N95 = 1400
N96 = 1500
N97 = 2050

estimated price of N series phone.. plus minus RM50..

only N79 meet your requirement..

not nokia... but phone with established OS..such as WM , Palm , Symbian UIQ , Symbian S60 V2 / V3

. you must pay RM 300 - RM 400 to get garmin navigation license...

after get license.. then you can set to off the a-gps .... so you can navigate free..

1. Nokia N85... Nokia N79 if you dont like slide

those phone has almost same features..

N85
- same OS and FP with N79
- 5MP camera , with autofocus , LED flash 2nd generation
- has FM transmitter
- using Active Matrix OLED[AMOLED] screen - the most beautiful screen[lol]... and it saves battery a lot
- slide and stylish phone
- the rest all the specs almost same with N79[except for xpressoncovers]


2. hmm hard to answer this.. it depend on you.. mine has no problem with slide....

3. yeah i think about 5 years..but not so sure of that.. wikipedia.
