good take? not really clear..but i think the resolution is quite low for phone camera to take video..yours already send back??
so good can ponteng..haha..seems you are a boss..can ponteng and get salary as usual..haha  drool.gif
W960, my friend just sold off, because touch screen always got problem..nothing special..if you compare P1i with G900 then got things to compare.. thumbup.gif
*
hahaha. not the boss lah. not yet. hahahah. as long as i get my work done at the end of the day everyone is happy. thats why i have time to LYN. heh.

btw. talking about the p1. my bro is using that. the screen is strange to me. it feels like its soft to press. feels so nice. hahahahah. but it doesnt come with a propercase. so i think the screen would easily rosak if something scratched or poked it.

con of this phone is camera not up to par with other 5mp camera (cloudy/dark shots). but video cam is very good. flash also not so good. but this is because they couldnt fit a better one in. soooo i accept these cons with pleasure. because i hardly use the camera.

keypad is nice. i like how the buttons are not flat but each button is raised at an angle. i think this phone is quite user friendly.

PRO
-its a pretty responsive smartphone regardless of 208mhz proc speed which most ppl (who dont own the phone) think is slow but the mem of 128mb is considered pretty generous, good for multitasking wont bog u down upto tenS of apps simultaneously.

-accurate and sensitive touchscrn. quite good batt. phone built minimal creak, quite solid, very compact feel and very light 99g only! dark brown is special (i think)

-its size is one hand operatable smartphone with virtual qwerty, handwrite recog, biz scanner

-decent cam, speaker, very good multitasker-phone

-stable OS (minus the risky self tweaking attempts etc)
CONS
-camera button bit challenging to press (travel distance short)

-speaker hole lies flat at the rear cover, so suppress the sound abit when incoming call/sms IF ur phone is placed flat on the back.

-not full blown connectivity but adequate than most u find

-320x 240 screen not so generous

-batt lid rear cover abit rough to open/close ,not slide type.

-lcd quite thumbprint  tracks (even fingernails not entirely neat so i use stylus as often at home)

-no softkey on rec/hang calls so must rely touchscreen
thts abt it

days ago, i cudnt connect to wap so digi told me to set priority 1 to wap, so wifi to 2nd. he was right in guaranteeing will solve the problem n it did. but i wan 1wifi 2digi wap

because of two INTERNET ACCOUNTs; 1-internet 2-wap , got this very frequent option pop up when surfing asking u u wan to connect to (internet/WAP) ?

kinda annoying.

to counter this, i thought by deleting the WAP account (so my wap setup fr digi gone) in INTERNET ACCOUNT, & set my 1internet account priority with 1wifi 2digi wap, hoping WAP will connect when wifi fail but i was wrong.

now i cant even use my WAP which shouldnt be because of my priority 2digi wap in 1internet account.

sry long winded. any1 experienced this?
*
very long winded. hahahah. but its better to be long winded than leaving people going... huh??? what exactly is his problem??? hahahah.
good pros and cons listing. yeah the speaker thing quite annoying. sometimes i cant hear my alarm cause i usually place my phone on the soft pouch. so always have to put it upsidedown when i go to sleep. the batt. cover is also a bit annoying. i also scared it will break. i always gotta check the teeth at the top.

another con is that to take out the mem. card. you gotta take off the batt. cover. i dont really like this because im scared ill break the cover. i wish it was more effecient.

Thanks bro,

Last night i go shop try the phone ady, very nice feeling maybe i never own such high end phone b4 (using 2100 only)

But shop told me that when the memory almost full it will lag right??

Also i read back previous thread that, this phone don had GPS so if we need to install Garmin we need buy GPS receiver right??

Some as i read is :
1. Alarm not on when you turn off the phone/silent
2. Battery run out fast only way is change brightness to lower value

So now in my mind got few phone
1. G900
2. 5800XM
3. N79 (don like N82)
*
i dunno about filling the memory and lagging because its kinda hard to fill up all the memory. unless you are planning to store tons of music or movies. software files are small so filling up all the memory is difficult. plus are you talking about the phone memory or memory stick?

1. about alarm. to my knowledge most smartphones dont have alarm when the phone is off.
2. battery will last 2-4 days. depending on usage.


Added on January 8, 2009, 5:06 pmheres dimensions for the phones. to me this is important. n72 is.... shocking.gif

106 x 49 x 13 mm = g900
111 × 52 × 14.5mm = 5800xm
109 X 53 X 21.8 Mm = n72

dunno why my battery suddenly show 45%, an increase?! i very surprised. ofc, i didnt charge it.
any1 experience tis b4? lol

but sometime i tink , not too reliable. got once, from 14% drop to 7% suddenly. but the 7% lasted half a day at office without calls etc
*
i think if you keep the fone nice and warm in your pocket it charges the battery. hahahahahah. maybe. who knows... actually maybes its other way around. i heard if you put AA batt in the fridge after it dies it charges a bit and can use again. hahaha. maybe same concept? put phone near AC? hmm.gif


QUOTE(acaizegrete @ Jan 8 2009, 08:23 PM)
hi guys...

after been reading and following this thread for a very long time.. finally.. got the handphone myself... and charging it now...hehehe...

just wanna ask.. shud I update the software or use it first?

really need ur advice and info from all the experience user here...

p/s: this is my 1st smartphone ever... been using W800 since it comes out on 2005
*
nice! well before you update. few questions.

1. does your phone have chinese text support?
2. do you need chinese?
3. did you read about how to update and still have the chinese?
4. do you like to dance? hahahahah. doh.gif thought i would smuggle a question in. hahahah.

ya, but new phone(5800XM) price will drop fast after certain period,

And maybe i not so comfortable with no keypad, scare it will spoil fast...

G900 is about 1k, 5800 need 1.3k, n another phone i look for is N79 which also 1.3k
*
yeah i think keypad makes life much easier. especially when sms or just scrolling around the phone. plus i like buttons. hahaha.

hard to type sms. plus got no umphh when always touching the screen. hahah. but the problem wit G900 is that it looks like a normal phone and not a touch screen. so whenever i use normal phones i always pressing the screen. doh.gif trying to press the buttons. hahahah. this is downside of G900. hahah. it affects my perception of other phones. sweat.gif

My friends said usually thorus set better...why yea?

not that i know of. im using ori set. but some here using AP set also no problem. the only difference is the warranty. one with sony and one with the shop. some people get lemon phones and are unlucky. i was scared of this so i bought ori. i dont want any problems with shop fella. hahah.

Guys, a little help on the WLAN. There's some particular places like my college, or some other random public WLAN access which I can connect to, but once I prompt the website, it says " Could Not Locate Remote Server " . What does that means?

ah this wifi problemo again. you gotta fill in the ssid yourself and connect i think. i did that last time and it worked. i think we really need to make a FAQ front page. how to do huh.

i tink no need permission or moderator involvment. simply need is some1s time and effort

yeah. it happened to me before. for starbucks. i put ssid starbucks. password also i put starbucks or left it blank. worked few times. some places it works. some places it doesnt work. strange thing.

yeah lah. i will try make up some kinda list thing. maybe can make a more informative thread. i feel sorry telling people to "READ OVER THE PREVIOUS PAGES!" when its already 120+ like that. hahahahaha.

heh heh cant be helped ler, nobody over the top in worshipping the G900 enough to make a shrine topic for it , well some1 in P1i did for theirs. we almost can use the mods/themes/hacks there also actually , i benefitted quite alot from there.

there u go

§ Sony Ericsson P1i § V4 The Ultimate™

http://forum.lowyat.net/topic/752052
btw, if the P1i so big also is ultimate....then the G900 so darn slim n compact, and slightly more powahfuh....then ours must be The Godly! hehheh
anyway, wan ask some1 any way we could listen to radio without earphone attached? thru speaker i mean
*
hahah yeah lah. my goddess in my pocket thumbup.gif hahahaha.

i was at digital mall (pj) the other day. took a look at the 5800. quite thin. seems ok. i like the rubber back type thing. but still not as slim as the g900. full touchscreen. the guy also didnt know the price. he said its crashed since the phone always crash. he said something about nokia doing recall or something. so he wont know till new batch comes. looks like my g900 is still godly. hahahahahah.

thats really strange. i thought i saw this one time there was an alignment option. maybe it was for some other phone or tech. confused already. you must be really unlucky if both your phone got same problem. maybe its some kinda software you installed? both fone? same software. same result? hmmmm.
