Even though the camera and wifi look tempting, but I think adding these 2 not only adds weight n thickness, it also make the price blast past 2k I think.

I like M600i for it being a PDA and lightweight (lighter than Xda2 Mini).

i read that the processor speed is same as P990i

means, no improvements on the speed 

Finally a truly slimmer Pseries is arrive.

Somehow, i prefer the keyboard layout from M600i. The latest one seems too packed. Esp tos buttons near the bottom edge. I afraid it is hard for one finger SMSing.

Hopefully a GPS version will arrive~.

what is HSDPA , 3.5G?

P1i also built with largest battery capacity so far from SE model??

The extra ram is a welcome improvement for this model as the Symbian OS eats up a lot of ram so the extra ram is indeed helpful, hopefully it is not as sluggish as P990i. I've sold my P990i. Hahaha Hate to say this but it's the worst model from SE. Luckily, managed to sell it RM1450 to my friend, he didn't know that the AP price for SE P990i has dropped to RM1266 but most shops in Penang are still selling RM1860 (most probably some old stocks). Glad to have get rid of it before the price drops further. Now, I'll just wait for P1i first, hopefully the AP price is below RM2K, I don't think it will be as expensive as P990i as it's not meant to replace it in the first place. It's the successor to M600i.
I guess we don't need GPS yet but of course, it's good if SE can incorporate GPS in the future via firmware or software updates.
Well, not really, it is still using the BST-33 battery but for other countries, the P990i and M600i are shipped with BST-34 battery, it's a Li-Pol 1120 mAh battery. However, this extra capacity battery is not available in Malaysia. I know you can get it from the UK and other European countries, perhaps I can ask my cousin to buy one for me. Imagine, my K800i with a BST-34 battery, it should probably last another day extra for its standby time. For P1i, they should ship it with BST-34 or preferably a higher capacity battery as that device drains a lot of juice, Wi-Fi, 3G, large touchscreen, etc.

Rm1.2k wor....

but i tested on M600i....feel it pretty lag..

Standard battery, Li-Ion 1120 mAh

gsmarena

When you remove the battery cover, you will see the standard Sony Ericsson BST-33 950 mAh Li-Polymer battery that is rather frequently used by the manufacturer in a number of different handsets. According to official numbers, the battery should provide the P1 with enough power to keep it going for up to 350-440 hours of standby time or up to 5-10 hours of call time depending on whether you would use it in a UMTS network which takes its toll on battery life. Unfortunately, we could not test the phone's battery life since we used the phone heavily during our tests and thus the battery life we experienced was not indicative for the real-life performance of the handset. The SIM card slot of the P1 is not your regular Sony Ericsson one and the card itself slots into a place next to the camera lens.

when is tis phone out at malaysia?

If the price is cheap, then it's okay lah, but if the price is as expensive as those high end Dopod models, we have to think twice. Frankly, all smartphones and phones with the latest Symbian OS is sluggish, whether it is P990i, N80 IE, N73, etc ..... it has a very laggy feel but with more ram, it should ease a little. It's still too early to judge the performance of P1i yet but with more ram, it should perform better than P990i since P990i is quite an obsolete smartphone by today's standard. Even the QVGA screen isn't as good as W950i or the smaller K800i. It's about time SE make a serious overhaul for their Symbian models.

The P990i screen is a little washed out, I've posted pictures of it with comparison to K610i and K800i's screen. Try running the same video clip on it and on other models, you'll get what I mean. Worst of all, the camera is inferior on the P990i, even the entry level K610i can take better pictures than it despite lacking the AF function. Of course, these features are not a must for me but it's slow and buggy really bugs me a lot. Well, I thought it was b'coz of my AP set since it's not a generic version but had a chance to test out my friend's P990i, even with the latest firmware, editing word documents / spreadsheets or performing other multimedia functions were pretty slow and unstable. If you have a chance to try out P900i and P910i, you'll get what I mean. I don't believe it's because that the latest Symbian OS or softwares written for it have not been optimized, the P990i has been out for a while now, it's not just launched this year so they should have got it right by now.

The funny thing, M600i and W950i users reported less problems than P990i despite having the same physical hardware, maybe the internal ram size is different. I guess the problem lies with P990i's limited ram which should be addressed by SE's P1i, I'm sure the increase in the ram will do wonders but if not, I'll just give it a skip this time until SE comes out with something better. At least, I'm happy with my old P900i and my K800i, my two trusted buddies. The W950i is fine but that's not mine, just loan it from my brother since I've sold my P990i. Still hunting for another phone for myself but I guess P1i is only due out in Q3 of this year so it will be a while before it hits the street. Hopefully, they can keep the price reasonable.
