Somebody said: compare with w850!! 250 euro vs 400 euro for same functionality except camera!!

Are you nuts??? How can you even compare. When you are paying 400 Euros, you are getting a vastly superior product with Walkman 2.0 with track ID recognition, superb design, a 1 GB card bundled with the phone and sure to include the data cable with the peace of mind that all the functions that are claimed will work flawlessly...

What you get for 250 Euros is a me-too product (which is generations behind) from a second-rate manufacturer (a Finnish company named called Nokia or something like that) which surely will claim to give you lots of features, but how well and how many of them work is your guess as good as mine, inferior battery life, poor music quality, and you can bet on it that you will have to shell out about 100 Euros more to get the same capacity card + data cable + headphones that won't even dare come near the quality provided in the box by Sony Ericsson...

So if you calculate all that, the 400 Euro product actually is more cost efficient and economical. Don't just look at the sticker price, look at the total cost of ownership over the life of the phone and the value it provides for all of your hard-earned money and you will come to realize that the Sony Ericsson product is by far a better deal any day.

the thing about NOKIA is the software, and how easy is to use their phones. itīs the best. lattely the models are being a little borring, but it keep having the sing of Nokia. the Līamour colleccion itīs great, but the software is not enough. we want it all. by the way, i hate the kind of pink color that the pick 4 them.

i totally agree with "Ancient Nokia fan". That is the reason why i am using samsung nowadays. Nokia is like honda. honda make car with great engines just like nokia make phones with great features, but they both fail in designs department. once in awhile , they will come out with great looking product but most of the time, they s---ks!:)
And do you notice the new sets of phones by nokia. most are copied from Motorola (think N75) or sony ericsson (think all their new candy bar designs.) or samsung (think 5300).

Is it me or are all Nokia phones so ugly and boring. It seems like Nokia is afraid to try new designs with their phones. I used to be a big fan of Nokia but all their new phones looks the same as the old phones. They should hire some new designers who can innovate the design. The only Nokia phone which is nice but too expensive is the 8800. Must admit SonyEricsson (W850, K618, W950) and Samsung (X830, E900) phones are sweet!!, especially the black ones. So Nokia, change or go home.

What is camera worth without autofocus, these days?
Don't believe, try it out. One will really find difference.
