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

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

)
above info is my personal review.. becos i cant find any professional review yet
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.
