@Amir - I have been using P910i for more than 3 years although i bought a P1i(Drop dead gorgeous!)two months ago. Browsing with the P910i is wonderful and easy. I even chat with my friends around the world from my P910i. Believe me............its a very cool phone.

Warm regards.

I just dropped the my p910 on the ground and the screen display is gone. The screen itself is O.K and not broken. I still can receive calls through it. Please suggest how to get it fixed. I love my sony ericsson p910 very much.

I already tried to bring it to the celphone shops and they tried to reprogram it but they told me that the its probably not the program which is damaged but the physical phone itself. can somebody help me where am i goin to bring my P910i for repair? coz i really mis my P910i and i guess i can never purchase another P910i as brand new coz its already been out of the market. pls help me pls pls. contact me at 09173657222 im from the Philippines. tnx guys. my email aditjane05@hotmail.com

Hi Guys.

I am now on my 3rd S.E. P910i and I think that they are truly brilliant phones..
The previous 2 have been passed on to other family members cos' they are just so useful.
I have even sold my replacement P990i and bought another P910i as the screen was just to small!

First lets identify its out-dated features. Horrendous battery life & poor Stand-By compared to the latest generation of phones. But this is only when the Bluetooth is On!
It can last upto 3 times longer if the BT
is switched off. To be honest I usually carry a spare battery (cheap to buy) or use the car charger when driving.

The reverse (qwerty) side of the solid flip down keypad is very fiddly for fast Texting or Email; but the front facing numerical keypad is excellent for dialling & functions
Either way the keypad is very easily removed allowing for complete 'Touchscreen' input of all functions or use the 3rd option which is the fantastic Sony 5-way 'Jog Dial'.
How many phones can offer 3 different ways to make calls; input data & access funtions?

The actual body/casing was limited to a few unexciting colours and can look shabby after a year or so but plenty of replacement cases and covers are available on Ebay & Internet!

No built in Radio Function.
However a SE plug in FM radio is only £10/€15

In todays market the big let down really is the lack of 'Wireless-LAN'..
It is now to be found on the the replacement model (of the P910i) the P990i allowing connection to Internet Hotspots..
If only you could transfer the replacement SE P990i wireless connectivity to the P910i then it would still be a world beater.

There is a 1.0MP (yes a 1 Mega Pixel) camera fitted and Not an 0.3MP as is incorrectly and commonly stated.
It may not seem powerful by todays standard but when it was designed for a 2004 launch it was up there with the best of the rest and made it a pretty good video-cam too.
Its a shame there wasn't a 2MP camera upgrade here to match a stunning 256k Colour Display Screen..(=0.3MP)
See, this is where everyone gets confused!!

This phone has it all and is very user friendly. Starting with the usual Bluetooth hands-free headset functions to the easy set up for Voice Dialling from the Contacts list,
(which include photo association) and MMS.

Then on to the PDA capability to synchronise to a PC/Laptop or download zipped files and programmes from the PC/Internet using its efficient Symbian Software via the dedicated USB/Cable SE Docking Station; or Bluetooth and Infra-Red connectivity.

Symbian also allows for GR8 replay of Music in MP3 format or will play Recorded VHS or DVD Films and TV programmes in MP4 or 3GG formats via the external Sony MS cards.
(Up to a 2GB max capacity - NOT 1GB max)
In 3GG format that is large enough to record over 3 x 2 hour DVD movies (without menus & extras) or for another example; it can store all the European Maps for TomTom 5 Sat-Nav on just one of these 2GB Sony MS cards.

On the Sony P910i the TT5 Sat-Nat GPS system is operated by the Touchscreen & transmitted via the built-in Bluetooth to any (matchbox sized) portable Bluetooth GPS Receiver that you can carry in your pocket or the car.
With clear verbal (driving/walking/cycling) instructions from the loudspeaker function (or wired earphone) in conjunction with the clear colourful moving maps displayed on its excellent screen, this makes the P910i a GR8 compact portable Sat-Nav Player.

Also MP3 Music can be transmitted wirelessly to all current Bluetooth Headphones..
BT fold-up Keyboards R GR8 4 Emailing & SMS. Printers & other Non-BT devices etc equipped with a simple BT Dongle can also be easily connected to the P910i..

So in my honest opinion this is still a very clever robust and versatile device.

Cheers Guys
TK

Dearest friends,

Don’t pick phone Any More!!!!!!!!!!!

Though many people find that Nokia can be fun and exciting but still there are those who would rather look for shortcuts and innovative ways of breaking Technology barriers! Here is a really cool one! SONY ERICSON P910i
just perfect, whatever you might come up with is available and at eay reach of you.

I have never had more trouble with a piece of equipment than with this P910. I have had it since November 2004 and just endless trouble.
1. I cannot get the voice volume to an acceptable level.
2. My husband will be right next to me and have coverage and I will not from the same provider.
3. I have never been able to get it to sync with my computer. It doubles up on names and addresses.
4. Even the backup software is a problem that works intermittent.
I can go on but what is the point I just hope that no one else ever buy this make again as it is not worth it. On top of everything the phone cost me quite a lot... Very disappointing.

The best phone, from the perspective of ease of use. 5 way jog dial functions so fabulously that once you get used to it, you can never use any other phone. I hope Sony-Ericsson never abandon this 5 way jog wheel & incorporate it in the newer models as well.Battery life is very good. The upgrade I would like to see is a slimmer, black & camera-less (cameras in cells is such a stupid idea).Hope Sony Ericsson is listening.

You can set up the keyboard in the settings page, it will ask what the top line of your keypad is, eg. qwerty or for some reason there are alternatives (such as qwertz) for different countries i would imagine. Choose the keypad layout that suits your board.

Hello! P910i is a good mobile but when we add music,videos and many other things in it, then it becomes slow.It is my advise to you not to buy P910i.I have brought W980i since one month and i have stored music,videos and many other things and it is still working fast.

@Abbas Bangash - Yes, bugs can be fixed through updating the firmware. Fortunately, I have not updated my firmware even once because I did not experience any problems since I bought my P990i 15 months ago. I don't know but I cannot question its speed at all because for me it is far faster than the P910i. Its 3g (second camera) is fantastic, reception is so clear, video is excellent. The QWERTY keyboard is far far better than the P910i (P910i is awful as it's located at the back of the flip). UI (user interface) of P990i is superb and even the entirety of the casing of P990i is solid and looks really expensive. As I have said, I will just keep my P990i if SE is not going to release a successor (I don't consider SE P1i as a successor though). If budget is not a problem, I would really recommend to replace your P910i with P990i and I can assure you, you won't regret it. By the way, P990i is supported up to 8gb memory stick duo. Good luck!
