Jags,nothing serious about the software of the SE. I just wanted to say that I am a Nokia user and very loyally speaking I don't like the software of SE or Motorola or Samsung or anything else. They are not as quite user friendly as the Nokia. Thats it. But if you don't have such issues and have the budget then obviously go for W800i. But still Nokia 6230i rocks for me. Peace

    Another good news about 6230i. It seems the battery time can reach 5 days (!) if used moderately - just talking, none of the other features used.

        Dear fans, and one more question from my side. How can I set regular Internet connection and/or modem settings with this phone over GSM network (not GPRS, this system is not in operation yet in our country) to go Internet?

          Oh, sorry, correcting myself to avoid confusion, by "except connection aspect" I mean Nokia's is certainly better, i.e. SE's technological superiority concerns the other features and functionalities not the connection reliability and quality itself.

            Praveen, I agree with Paul, it depends on which aspects you treat the most important. However, let me mention another objective "disadvantage" of D500, it is older than 6230i. And by the way, if you do not avoid "frog-style" models, maybe E730 is a better option to consider than D500. I can say for sure its (E730's) video recording quality and maybe also picture taking quality are better than 6230i's. But regarding sound quality, I am sure Nokia's is better, maybe losing only to SE, e.g. K750. And one more disadvantage I don't like with Samsung phones, the speaker for talking and player is the same one, while with Nokia and SE they are separate.

              Hey, whole world, go for 6230i ! It's the sexiest and cutest phone ever since 8210 and T28 (even not 8310)! I am a pragmatic man up for all technological tricks like the ones SE offers, but just the aura and looks of 6230i beats all SE technological superiority (of course except for connection aspect).

                    This is a great phone.It's sound quality is too good.It has stereo music player.Camera is also good.I had some problems earlier with video playing but after upgrading to v3.3 it'sokay.Some people compare it with sony ericsson k750i,which is not good because it costs Rs4000 less (in India). It has a nice display 208*208.Dictaphone is One hour. It is a small and cute phone with so many features. So, All in all a great phone to have at the price range of 13500-14000(in India).

                      Pinak,
                      Thanks.
                      Paul,
                      What software probs? I am not getting. Does this happen to normal phone usage? Can the problems be addressed using an upgrade?

                      Actually I also did a comparo between these two models and could not conclude. (to tell the background, I have had Siemens C35i, Samsung R220, Nokia 1100, Motorola E398 and now Samsung X460). I want to change mine to a proper phone which does not give battery trouble(I have had nightmares with Siemens, Samsung), good applications. So my choice boiled down to SE 800i or N6230i. I am not very particular abt software aspects. I do not want to purchase another mobile atleast for 1 year or so after this one. After Pinak' views, I was inclined towards N6230i. But now afraid that it should not boil down to the same problem.
                      Hence was seeking opinion......

                        The answer of the previous question depends what are the aspects looked into when comparing the 6230i and the D500. So take a look at the specs of both the phones and then decide.

                        The sound quality of 6230i is very good when heard through the headset but I think the K750i produces better.

                        No specific folder or file can be password locked in the 6230i.

                                Hey Jags, I myself was thinking of buying the W800i but changed my mind because I won't be able to cope up with SE's software. Nokia's software are the ultimate. If you don't have problems with softwares, I will suggest you to buy the W800i. Its an awesome phone. Trust me.

                                Joanna, don't even think of changing your 6230i.

                                  And Jags, as far as this getting outdated things are concerned.. don't worry.. your phone will be outdated the moment you purchase it and give your money to the company which helps them to come out with a new model to make a trap for people to feel upgrading. Be sure not to get trapped..

                                  Just choose what YOU need. If you don't get outdated that fast, the companies will close down.

                                  So.. being a gadget gizmo WON'T help. Calling, SMS and couple of photos here n there.. and some music. THAT IS ACTUALLY ALL. jags, will you check if nokia 3120 has all this..? which I have? umm...

                                    Jags, I am living with Nokia 3120 - My first and last one. I am just interested in all this reviews and stuff. Of course I understand your point.

                                    Technically and other points wise, SE W800 is better than Nokia 6230i..

                                    JOANNA.. continue with Nokia 6230i. Why? refer to my recent post below. You be a good girl. :)

                                      Pinak,
                                      Exactly...
                                      It applies to you also. If you have bought this phone, you gotta live with it. (unless you are ready to drop your wallet for 800, 900, 1000, 1100) If you have not bought already and are planning to do so (like me), choose the one with moderate features so that it does not get outdated by the time you reach home from the shop.
                                      The whole point of raising my question was which one is "really" better to have for quite good time to come.....
                                      Hope you got that........
                                      Anyone ready to comment on 800 and 6230i comparo........

                                        Hey , you guys! I own a 6230i for almost 2 mounths and this is a very nice phone but somebody told me that this is not a phone for a girl and recommended me to change it with a Samsung E530 or E730.
                                        Do you think I should do it?
                                        Thanks.
