my v20 can view chinese because my country code is china if im not mistaken.

u bought an ori casing?

where? what shop and that includes the service too?

pain meaning expensive or what?

one of the best slider phones that i've used in terms of durability.

the slider is the strongest and firm even after using it for 10 months.. n81's slider is better than 5610 and 6500c and n80

change already ar my friend?

this guy senior n81 user ..

hmm..maybe so la.. lucky me. cause i read in other forums and also here that their sliders became lose after a while or after it accidently fell down..

personally..this is the best slider i've used to date. nice compact symmetrical shape. I really like the shape. it's like n96 but not bulky as n96, it's just right in the butter zone

High quality sound and a very long battery life compared to other N series phones and even other S40 nokia phones.

nice clear crisp lcd screen and can play music for a very long time thanks to it's DSP chips..

i said this before here and to most of my friends, if this phone has at least 3mp camera like n73 or 6500c, i won't change this phone of sell it..cause i love everything about it except for the lack of at least a 3mp camera..

o yeah...forgot to tell about the ngage gaming on the n81..very nice because of the 2 dedicated gaming keys on top of the screen

ah man..your words make me want to buy it back...waaaa

AP set or ori set? if im not mistaken ori is still rm1000 above for both the 2gb and 8gb version.

btw, i've changed to n95 8gb...

what product code is that? euro? apac?

maybe because of the transition when you click on a menu right??

btw, how did u unlock the phone??

oh okay..he did the hard boot. press the 3 buttons and reformat again right?
but did his firmware change to an older one or did it just unlock his phone and make it usable again with the new fw?

yeah i remember that...back then it's loud..real loud..

then when v11 came out softer sounds already..

BTW, guys..go for euro code...so can take pics without the shutter sound..

because asian countries have a regulation on cameraphones and it must have a compulsory sound when taking pics..

euro on the other hand, doesnt have that regulation and can turn the sound off..

you mean the speakers on the phone right?

if loudness, n81 on v10 firmware is loud, later firmwares have much softer sounds..

others that has loud nice sounds are n95, 5800xm, n95 8gb

if using headphone n91 has the best sound...seriously..

if using headphones n91 wins hands down...really nice music..but if you play music through the speakers it's not that loud.

yeah... when i got my n81 i thought i'll be louder than my friend's k618i (a cameraphone and not really for music)

i've read reviews of n81 being real loud...but maybe because the reviews were written for n81 on v10 firmware and when i got it it was on v11 firmware. much softer sounds...that sucks..

k618i was very veryy loud for a K series phone..im ashamed..

wow...that's loud considering my n95 8gb is loud enough to beat any of my friend's phones...

i've read the loudness test but i heard there's a bit of dispute on the testing because if you put the mic on one side of the speaker, the volume of the other speaker would be lower. If u put the mic on the top the loudness of both speakers would also be lowered..

but n95 has stereo speakers and w595 got one or two speakers?

if the n95 has both speakers on one side like on the n82 it would be a lot louder as the sound is directed to one side only..

single speaker and stereo one sided speakers phones like k618i and w595 has an advantage of being very loud because it is directed to one side

oh on the top and bottom...so the comparison should be fair enough

i initially thought that it was on the back and not on the sides (top bottom sides)
