I dont know what exactly you did about the GSM network, but dont search for a non 3g network and use. Just choose the mode of turning the 3g off and only GSM, it increased my z800i battery life from 2 days to 4-5 days if tops.
YO Peter, Im a Kiwi also hehehe, i have just sold my Sharp 903 and i really liked it, Have you come accross this White Scren thing??Is it a good phone? cos in NZ 903 is SOO hard to get now, Japan have perm locked the Black 903 to Full Jap firmware and we cant put NZ firmware on it now, Therefore cant have Full Vodafone Live :( Thanks
luk evry1 gsm answered our cals 4 a review! bout time
I got mine today, in New Zealand.. Pretty good so far, good sound quality and pic quality. Disadvantage is size, protection of phone, battery life. I'll have to see if battery improves after few charges later on. The lens of camera feels like it'll get damaged easily as it is almost leveled to the side of the phone. so when putting it on a surface, almost touches the lens.
there is nothing called as battery calculator. Its just that the game software eats up charge when it is running and we quit the game, the phone returns to its normal use. It is then that the battery regains some of its lost charge. This is there in every battery that every mobile phone uses.
I=improved, i work for a phone company also, in fact the biggest one in the world
this is why the battery indicator goes down when you use it, and bounces back again shortly after....
SE has a battery calculator based on your current use. For instance if you are playing games, for example you may see battery life drop to 2 bars. It means the mobile has calculated that if you continue to play games, you will have about 2 bars usage left.
You'll notice that once you stop playing games and go back to stanby screen, battery may shoot up to 3+ bars etc Again it's symbolic of current use, so it's worked out that if you leave it how it as is on low use, the battery will give you X amount of life.
It's a very useful feature. But I think perhaps you should have the option to turn it off. I personally like having it there, as you always have a good indication of how much battery life your losing doing what.
***browsed my message for 2 minutes...!!
ummm...ive read comments bout the battery being bad...so i tried my own...i rechared the phone to 100%...thn i browsed my messages for arnd minutes n checked the battery... and it had fallen to 98%...then i heard 1 song n played a little wid da camera...and the battery fell to 94%..!! sum plz help me how to increase the battery..!! and i my 3g network is also off...still its using so much battery...plz give tips or suggestions...:(
well well well.i am not sure if you guys remember me.I was in the advisory board of all pocket pc platform based and also symbian based mobiles.any question you can chat with me online with my yahoo messenger id.
another thing about the confusion of work "i".common guys,its simple,its about the gsm network,meaning i is an international scope network which mean the particular model can be used all Gsm1900/800/900/. where else some model without the "i" means it is specified for certain region.thats all folks.
haha...!! yay..!! hurray...!! yipeeey...!! the review is finally here..!! :d :d :d
stop with the i=improved rubbish, with sony ericsson it means international. simple as!
Quite simply the best current model available, maybe even better than my sharp 903. Although camera comes up slightly lower than the sharp. Overall quality is good, and it works really well.
I work for a fone company and the 'i' actually stands for improved. Most of the time nothing much has changed on the fone, maybe its lost a gram in weight or its got an extra colour added, just an advertising/marketing gimmic really as youre more likely to buy something if its been improved! x
hey guys, just came back from my vacation. time tocatch up a little:
striker it is about time that they wrote a review about the phone. it has received so many posts and has been reviewed by other places, but why of all places did it have to be gsmarena that did not review. come on gsmarena. we all know that you can easily get your hands on the phone. we always trust your review and we need it soon enough
Mango, the "i" just stand for international that means it is accepted every where.
I hope i answered yor question. Go oget the phone i thinks is ok for its categories
30FPS very good, not as clear as pictures are but stunning for this kind of video player doesnt become pixellised
Hi Mango,
There is not diff between W900 & W900i , to my understanding the "i" stands for a asian set therefore it should hv chinese language input.
hy plz tell me about that..according to gs marena review about w800 camera they said that in taking photo u can zoom till 4x and after taking photo u can zoom it 32 times..in w 900 u can zoom it 8x before taking photo but how much u can zoom it after taking photo?????
