Great work, guys!@Dhenz: Might it not be a difficult to define "the exact price" for ANY product? gsmArena's solution is imaginative and reasonable, adding useful commercial information, while avoiding being commercial.

Thanks alot GSM by introducing this tool you have really helped the users to chose the phone according to their budget. This is a request that you should clerly mention the exact price of the handsets so that all the mobile user use the GSM site and can decide to declare this site to be the best site for the mobiles.

Thanks a lot GSMArena! I bought my first handphone, Nokia N-gage three years ago thanks to the review and comments that I read here. I completely satisfy with my phone up until now. I will buy another phone this year and I will keep checking this site to find the best phone that suits me based on review here.

Additional information such as price range is a very good improvement. I would like to thank GSMArena team. Thank you and keep up great work. =D

You're simply the best! You made all other mobile websites useless, even websites of their own brands like Nokia.com! Thanks and I wish you the best.

I think that it is a great idea to add this feature on the site, although I do think that the way they have done it is a bit too ambiguous.
What exactly would 6/10 mean? $600ish? What would constitute a 10/10? $1000?
I think it would be better if they just had price range groups, ie. $500-$600 etc.

could you guys stop bitching about the price thing??? it's more of a guideline....of course prices drop,but they don't drop suddenly....in my opinion this is THE BEST site for mobile phones. you find accurate info for just about every phone out there.reviews are short,detalied,neutral and straight to the point.... what more could you want???? and now they add price details and you start saying "useless" or "i check out prices on a different site" or who knows what....to some users this info is usefull and that's all that matters.there are plenty of mobile phone based sites on the internet,if you don't like this one you are free to check those out.

I m not sure if the retail price differs from the price u mention (which is before taxes, subsidies & shipment costs).

If the difference is less than 1%, it is OK, if it’s more, then it u should be finding & quoting final retail prices, for real help of website-visitors.

nice feature.
but, is the price will be updated as the phone price has tendencies to go down everyday?

If it'll all have to be updated manually I don't think it's going to work out. Why? Well, think about it - that's dozens (maybe more) phones that'll have to updated PER day. Sounds ridiculous to me..


About the SAR values - what's the big deal? It's not going to fry your brains out or anything.. I mean seriously, when a phone is released it means it has passed its SAR tests and is within the predefined limits.

interesting for some reason i can not think of a comment for this, the feature is for phone like mid rangers which have stuff like a 1.3mp cam or mp3 player cause come on we all know that the N96 is not gonna be 10 dollars
