noufal, 09 Dec 2010which one is better n79 or xperia x10 mini ,,,,,,,,, i am lokng forwd to buy one from this t... morei have both, go for n79. its better becoz i dont feel comfortable with mini, and android as some basic apps are missing like blue-tooth receiving, and the BATTERY ISSUEs...mini has max 1 day MAX!!, battery drains alot in sony erisscin sets as i experienced in more then 2 sets of sony thing. thats y i dont like sony becuz they cant improve battery life like nokia/samsung. But the Touch of xperia x10 is amazing and quite sensitive..

yes, it is very good in look and also in camera mode. its internet quality is also very good. is there any problem, it is only due to its sim card. just remove card and replace by someone else.

I am using this phone since last year and with all my experience with this,i must admit that it has worst D- pad . I am saying this due its some feature like navi wheel which once worked but now when it is on my phone just hangs its keypad just stucks. Although it works when i off the navi wheel but if i dont use it than what's the point having this feature . You cannot use its D pad to its perfection while playing games. the only thing i like about it is its 5 mega pixel camera which very good.

Ok, for those wanting to purchase this phone. I have used it for the last 4months and i am on my way of getting a new phone.

First off, the specs of the phone are good, but the keypad is rubbish. The d-pad is hard to press, the small buttons on top need to be pressed with your nails or hard with your thumbs.

The image gallery is slow as nothing i have seen before, the software itself is not as tweakable as in the E series. I regret the day i gave up my E51 for that piece of junk.


It takes really good pictures though, nice video recording, good screen size, awesome music player and sound, GPS work a treat but the interact with all these marvels, one needs a keypad and if the keypad sucks, it makes it all crap.

If only they have put a nice ergonomic keypad, this phone would have been a killer. I wonder what goes in their head sometimes when designing phones, cause this is complete incompetence in terms of keypad.

That is my 2cents, this phone has managed to make me hate nokia and i am going HTC now, bye bye symbian dinausor, i won't be missing you for sure.
