Estimated price 400 to 450 euro.

So is anybody eyeing for an Aino?

ooo wow..nice ph...heard tis ph can be ps3 remote controller??true??

craps 450 euro.

touch screen not fully utilize.

my guess

the price should be something like RM1799 - RM1899 when it reaches our shore

i really like this phone. hope the camera can fight N86's.

oh my~~~` another poison thread~~

no news when it wil reach our shores?

rumour said end of September or early Oct. Stay tuned

im liking more japanese design on world wide se models. Looks good in white

yeah awong

finally SE designed a phone that "feels like the jap phone"

i love white too, but afraid it might get stainned or yellowish due to wear & tear. black colour is all time safe.

oh well that means satio should be within the same timeframe?

ive got the theme and its layout in my phone

at uk , satio and aino will release on 7th october ~

Oh noes URRRRRRRRGH spasms.
Looks really sweet! ><''

Where to get it? Can put in C901 also right

haha yup. here. find it from here : http://se4ever.ru/
my internet now super slow. cant give u the direct link. and i know its in russian. search slowly on the right hand side for themes section

Wow!!! I have installed the Entertainment_Unlimited theme, it's very beautiful (I guess, in C903 should be nicer coz the screen is bigger)...
By the way, out of topic a bit, the standbyflash is installed in the tpa/system/preset/standby/flash right?

haha its exactly like the one in Aino. yup C903 screen is relatively big i can say.

and yes. it goes in there
then ur menu will be like the Aino ones in the pics above

from w995 thread to this thread~~ hope can get this phone after finish mod my car.......

actually i more care about the price~lol

you have W995? used to be in my wanted list, but abandoned the idea after seeing Aino, which is more superior

how is it more superior actually? seems like the specs are pretty much the same apart from the touch screen. hmm.

Sweet phone. But the price will be very scary

yah, the TFT capacitive touch screen is +1 as compared to W995 lor.

and i always put large screen phone as top priority. loves the 3-inch.

Aino -1 for not having Clear Bass, I was planning to get it before I found out it only has Megabass. That's a deal breaker for an audiophile like me :-( Absolutely in love with the Japanese design though

you mean jphone, pana jie jie??

hehe, this one confirm no need hypersim.

NO LA~~~
i means last time i lepak at w995 thread now lepak at this thread lo~

the thing bad bout big screen is the battery life

after seeing pana's video,now i am somewhat addicted to this phone. havent even use my iphone fully yet =/

poison poison

cant wait for it to launch.

White color damn nice la


Black color oso not bad






COUNTING THE DAYS!!!

not sure that the keypad is as smooth as the jphones or not...the numbering button looks like k800i's

I think I'll be waiting for this too. Hopefully SE releases without any of the problems their phones have had recently. Though the limited touch screen makes me wonder why they did that, sorta like sh906i, maybe just a test model to see how receptive people are to it before offering more functions.

But I just noticed something interesting, the spacebar key has been moved on the Aino, most SE have had it on the "#" key and now its on the "0" key.

now i've just noticed that after you mentioned...lol..

awong, you have sharp eyes~!

it has been ages since i last used a Sony Ericsson.

me wan aino, me wan aino

blavk is cool lo
will look into it

oh no. i hope its just a proto then. im used to sonys # key as space.
btw black looks nice too. the slider reminds me of W595 just that it is longer

what's the other phone then?

can we use touchscreen when we are surfing the net???

I don't see a reason why you can't other smartphones which are touchscreen can surf the net right?

Except the Aino isn't a smartphone.

I believe the touchscreen is limited to the multimedia menu only, so chances are we can't use touchscreen for web surfing.

While we're at it, I read the preview @ PhoneArena and their prototype's camera is controlled by the touchscreen only (and I assume the keys on the side). The keypad won't work for it. It's not really a deal breaker, but a bit weird, no?

1 more thing . i feel that the keypad reminds me of K800i keypad.

hmm kinda like the sony ericsson swivel phones, you cant use the camera when opened, that did annoy me a few times. I do find it weird that you cant use it opened like some sliders let you do for the camera short cuts.

was the k800i keypad bad? I only had one for a few days before i killed it flashing it so I didnt use it full time.

talking about swivel phones, W900i is my all time favourite phone until now i'm still using it...

one of my concern, too

couldnt find much info on that... youtube also tarak show review on that.

but i think i am okay with it

you guys prefer black or white color Aino?

This post has been edited by panasonic88: Sep 12 2009, 11:11 PM

i like the k800 keypad though the only thing is the rubber start peeling off after sometime. lol

anyways, im sure this will be a hit when it arrives.
just wondering is the camera as good as the one on N86. if it is, im definitely buying it

Oh I didn't know that Aino wasn't a smartphone. I do get confused of what is considered a smartphone heh.

P:

Though, just because Aino isn't a smartphone, doesn't mean it should have limited touchscreen functions. But, blah, we can't have everything...

Ugh, black or white, they both look sweet!

hope got other colours in future.

It's already so difficult to choose between two colors and now we are asking for more colorS?

white and black is the main color~~

other~~ not interest

haha its always better to have more varieties. thats where the term "spoilt for choice" comes in

There are lots of black and white/silver phones out there; If Aino gets more colours, it will be an added benefit. P:

But Aino is already sexy as it is, so I don't care anyway~

izzit will release pink version? or gold color for special edition

yo taikor~!

i thought you're going for the Satio

Spoilt of choice sounds like it leads to confusion for me. Everything also nice, end up buying all colors la~ hehehe...

Hello,

Yes I am since I prefer a smartphone for myself and too bad Aino isnt one but the white looks really clean and nice though!

haha im also going for Satio actually but abit poison by this maybe get both

I had wanted both but a bit disappointed to know AIno is not a smartphone.

I had enough fun with Smartphone, now wanted a simple yet chioooo phone, Aino is all I want

KEEP IT UP PANASONIC88

.... aino ........ sky high price will be in malaysia .....

source said it wouldn't be more than 2K

faster collect more duit raya LOLZ!

i guess you would be buying one ?

if i want this model then i hope that they will release the purple aino...lol..

yeah baby yeah!

wow purple Aino, so 904sh-ish

I think I'll just pick white, Im kinda done with black phones, I havent used white phones enough yet, so I'll find out if my current white phone stable will turn yellow...my white 903sh I dont know what the original color is supposed to be, its got parts from like 3 different white 903sh lol. But purple or even orange or yellow, I'll take, especially a banana yellow aino

and it looks like a good local phone to have, to have, z750i feels too small, size wise


I wonder how good the stock browser is on the aino, or will operamini mini be used more.

This post has been edited by awong: Sep 19 2009, 12:51 PM

i hate when pana jie open thread. sure damn alot of poison pictars 1! . see already straight feel like going and buy. sighhhh

Lol,purple my trademark coloe..i hope that the purple should be the same as the 904sh one,haha..so nice..but don't know that they will release that color or not..anyway,replying in lcct terminal using wifi 5800,line is quite fast..lol..

where u got your source from? hope it comes out real soon :S
but impossible more than 2k also. if not need to fight N97 already.
hope pricing around N86

hope can get this phone before CNY~~~~

should be cheaper than N86 as well

903sh is not pure white, so you barely feel it is "dirty" after so long using it

and hey, we have the same taste, i wish Aino comes in banana yellow color, damn chio, damn striking!

i feel like getting a white Aino.... maybe skinning it before hand? hmmm.

oh ya, more reviews & lots of photos

http://www.eprice.com.tw/mobile/talk/?prod...385&tid=4246971

i think the pre-launch price will be out in taiwan by tomolo. stay tune.

I think i remember forumer tiffneedle with his f905i he wrapped his f905i in plastic clear cover i think, so all the scratches went onto the cover than the body of the phone, Probably the same can be done on the aino and it wont turn yellow from using it

SE brand forever is expensive. No such thing as cheap.
