        Yeah! Yeah! Yeah! This phone is really good in ONE thing and that's have a bombastic speaker but... Hang on!!! This is a freakin phone and not a mini hi-fi and if you wanna have great speakers and not a top notch phone... Go get yourself a stereo Hi-Fi system LMFAO!!!

              to unknown i completely agree with ^_^x
              cause me and my friend had bought these two phones togather around 4 months back
              while his k700 has to be charged twice a day with heavy multymedia usage mine works cooly for 2 days his phones joystick function has detoriated while mine is just as new and the body of k700 though beautiful has all scratch marks while the rubbery body of my e398 is just still imaculate and pls agree the sound is not half as good as e398 . the only advantage he has is his phone has video recording ,but when u r stuck with just 41 mb of space how many clips can you record .so pls dont say anything nasty about e398 its a great phone for those who can live without video recording

                To Unknown-actually, I tried both phones before deciding to get this one, and I believe I made the right choice. The K700i just has too many bugs, and its screen just can't compare to the one on this phone, and I have issues with Sony Ericsson's UI...and what the hell can you do with 41MB?

                Oh, and don't put down this phone if you can't even say a single VALID reason as to why you think this phone is junk!

                Before saying stuff like that, make sure you have facts to back it up!

                Unlike you, I base my posts on facts, not just on my opinion.

                  got myself this so called 'fab' phone 2 weeks ago by trading in my K700i and well... this is a piece of junk compared to my previous phone and please... I hope you people will post honest comments in future regarding these 2 phones and for moto fans... don't put down K700i when you DON'T even use the phone before so NOW!!! I'm going to trade this piece of moto shit for my K700i again... DUH!!!!

                    To BH-thank you!

                    To me-I was talking about the phone..go to menu-->settings-->connection...you should have bluetooth and the USB option in here...

                    To question-as I have said many, many, many times before, you can record video but you won't be able to use the memory card. people, read through the thread before asking questions! A lot of of the questions being asked have been answered before!

                    To Adhitya-you made the right choice...get the 96R firmware to eliminate the laging ion the menus.

                    To Vict-just being nice...^_^

                    To HelloMoto-yes, anybody who says the K700i has better speakers than this phone is probably deaf or something.

                      I had heard the speakers of SE K700i. Anybody who says that K700i has better sound is talking crap. Although this phone isn't perfect, the sound really stands out. :)

                          Move your software version to 96R and the phone will be really fast ....

                              Coz....
                              -e398 easier to turn the speakerphone then k700.
                              -i think keypad's e398 much comfort then k700
                              -u can change ur sms tone more personal when u have e398
                              -i dont need 2 charging my e398 everyday like k700
                              -of course it (e398) had better speaker and expandable memory
                              -i have trouble 2 connect 2 my pc via bluetooth with k700.
                              -u dont need 2 buy usb cable anymore.
                              -and more..
                              But, it have weakness 2 like..
                              -e398 dont have infrared like k700
                              -e398 to slow (compare to k700)
                              -k700 lighter then e398
                              -e398 cant record video
                              -e398 dont have radio
                              -and more..
                              But i think, i make a correct decision to change my k700 for e398.

                                The connection wire to the PC comes along with the package for E398. It's quite useless to have all that 'whopping memory' and mp3 functions if you can't transfer files from your PC to phone, and vice versa. So, it's really good that Motorola included the wire in the phone package. Whereas for K700i, you'll have to spend quite a bomb getting the connection wires and stuff. Most of my frns using the K700i usually don't bother. At the end of the day, many so-called superior functions in the phone are left idle. And, if you compare the E398 speakers with the K700i speakers, it's very obvious that the E398 speakers are very much superior. It even has bass. Surprisely, it doesn't drain the battery life by alot. And yes, I totally agree that the material used for the E398 is amazing. To date, my phone still looks as good as new. 3 cheers for Motorola!

                                    ^_^x Are you talking about conection settings on the phone or PC, If for phone i have no idea how to, For PC I am possitive it is set to USB and not bluetooth or IR. If i can't get this to work can i just get a SD car reader/writer and use that to transfur mp3 to the phone. If i do this will they work?
