i dont know what it is with nokia.. Either they come up with weird impractical designs.. n forget some sensible features, or they pile it up with features n give it an extremely pathetic display n a slow processor.
6070. (its announced but not yet available) - well it looks like a phone (yeah nokia doesnt do that too often now), thats a plus. but so far, THATS THE ONLY PLUS.
it has IR, it has FM, but NO BLUETOOTH, no wlan, no card slot.
It has a cam.. but its a VGA. i doubt it has a flash.
the official site says it has 16 MB of total memory.. (which includes everythin.. which means, sms, contacts, wall papers, ringtones etc etc), leavin u only with 3.2 MB of user memory.
so i dont think u could effectively fill this up with ur stuff, as in pics, n songs or videos.
if this phone is priced reasonably (n i mean around 50 KD), it MIGHT make a sensible buy for people who need the phone for basic purposes. anythin above 50-55 range n this is a a worthless phone.
When i say MIGHT MAKE A SENSIBLE BUY - i mean for people who refuse to see beyond NOKIA. coz if they could, then they would know that there r phones within the same price range available which can do more.
n if they jus want a basic phone which does EXACTLY the above then they can STILL GET ANOTHER BRAND which will definitely cost em a lot less.

hmmm... now this phone was jus recently announced. i was goin through the specifications, n honestly cant tell any difference between this n the w 800.
ok.. i will be honest, the difference are there in the design. the w700 has a bit more of a sober color. (w800 is orange, n i dont think many people can pull that off, well may be they can - I CANT).
other than that.. the w800 comes with a 512 mb memory card, n the w700 comes with a 256 mb memory card. OTHER THAN THAT.. absolutely no difference that i can see, feature wise.
the same config for the cam (2 MP), the same flash, no edge, no wlan - in either one of em.
both have the same features, bluetooth, IR, fm, both weigh the same.
the only other difference would be that the w800 IS available, n w700 is not available at present.
the point of announcin an already existin phone beats me. sony ericsson seems to be goin the nokia way as well. comin up with new phones jus for the heck of it when they dont really have anythin new to offer. this is sad.
If SE people have any business ethics at all, then they will scrap the w700 model. if they r keen on launchin it, then they could atleast put in features which would make it a bit different from its predecessor, as in EDGE, WLAN, or a 3.2 mp cam. Atleast somethin that could justify a buy for w700

announced in feb of this yr.
lets look at the specifications, shall we..
NO CAM, NO CARD SLOT, No edge, no wlan, no bluetooth, no infrared.
but surprisingly it does have FM. (CLAP CLAP). its a dual band phone.. (gsm 900 n gsm 1800).
hmmm i wonder what was motorola thinkin?? a cheaper model of the razr?? well they should have done a market study, coz the razr has dropped tremendously in its price. when it was launched in kuwait, it cost around 220 KD. i bought mine for 170KD.
in india, the last time i checked (which was some time ago), u could get it for around IRS 12,000.
n the price has been declinin.
now the only way anyone would buy this phone is - IF they need ONLY A PHONE n nothin else. n ofcourse it has to be priced sensibly.. but how much would u pay for a phone like this.. how much do u think it should be priced at?? IF I HAD TO BUY This phone, i wouldnt pay a fil more than KD 20. now do u think motorola would price it around that range??
ohh btw its a flip phone.

I like flip phones. Some of the earlier flip phones had a lot of problems but I am currently satisfied with mine which is a Nokia 7270. Good features and pictures are really clear. Anyway I am not too much into mobiles. We have new models everytime and then your mobile looks like the oldest in the market............... The other thing is that I dont use the other functions and probably dont know what else it could possibly do but then I am not so Mobile Savvy!!!!!!!!!!! Cheers

Nokia 6280, 6270, 6282 - Really not much of a difference. but there r a few.
6282 - 1 MP cam. 10 MB shared memory
6270 - 2 MP cam n a flash, 9 MB shared memory.
6280 - 2 mp cam n a flash n a VGA cam (2 cams) 6 MB SHARED MEMORY (might as well not give any)
All three have bluetooth, IR, n EDGE, FM, Card slot,
NONE OF EM HAVE WLAN.
All three look more or less the same, with very minor differences in design.
hmmm. in ma opinion - none of the above are a good buy. (jus dont like any of em)

have no idea how i missed out on this one.
lets see.. it isnt available yet, but reports suggest that it will be comin in soon.
doesnt look bad. nice color. good design. the key pad n joystick seem convenient
1.3 MP cam (i doubt it has a flash) bluetooth, infrared is there, but NO Edge, NO WLAN, n i dont think it has FM either.
no card slot - i dont know WHY THEY DIDNT PUT IT, thats jus stupid.
shared memory 28 MB. - well its good enough but without a card slot it might be a bit less for users like maself.
ohhh n the best part.. i think this is the first phone in the K series which has express on covers (u can change the body if u get bored with it, n get stylish ones.. usually made in china..lol! they r cheap n some of em look really jazzy - i personally dont like express ons but jus incase someone is interested).
now tht leaves the pricin issue.. in ma opinion around 60 bucks TOPS. nethin more than that n the phone is jus not worth it.

N 93 (its ma opinion that Adboy will like this phone)
Flip n a bit of a cripple (phones that twist n turn, i call em crippled).
Announced in April 06 - nice features. plenty of memory. a bit on the heavier side, but then i guess it should be worth it.
50MB SHARED memory. 128 memory card included. It has edge, wlan, bluetooth n FM. but no IR.
cam is awesome (well atleast the config.. we will see abt the performace when its available).. 3.2 MP. flash and also a secondary VGA cam.
it is definitely gonna be over priced but then give it abt 2 months after launch to get a reasonable price.
Personally speakin not ma taste. i dont like crippled ones.
N 73 - its got bluetooth, IR, FM, WLAN but no edge (wonder why). 42 MB shared memory n a card slot.
cam again 3.2 MP, flash n a secondary VGA cam.
looks pretty ok. decent lookin phone. might consider buyin this but not worth more than 150 bucks (im sure it will intially be priced more than that)
N 72 - No IR, No Wlan. i hate the white/silver outline in the front. love the sleek back.
it does have fm, bluetooth n edge. 20Mb shared memory (not bad but would appreciate a bit more) n it does have a card slot.
battery life seems horrible.. they say that it will give upto 3 n half hrs talk time.. n thats jus not enough.. (not for me atleast)
2Mp Cam with flash. (no secondary cam, incase someone is interested).
ma opinion not worth more than 100 bucks (n thats pushin it.. considerin i dont like the front panel at all).

hmm.. Nokia N80
Finally its out. got ma hands on one. am i disappointed.. YES pretty much.
a Good screen. an awesome config for the cam but sadly doesnt perform that well.
it has a 3.2 MP cam.. but ma SE which has a 2 MP Cam takes better snaps.
its got BT, IR, Wlan, Edge, FM.. everythin. 2 cams n a flash. plenty of shared memory n external card slot as well..
its a slide phone.. looks really small. n for a second i was thinkin OMG.. a smart phone.. in THAT size..
but sorry to say.. its not really THAT SMART. its not a power slide.. so u have to push it all the way up (not THAT big an issue, but still.. it jus makes the phone feel really... ummm CHEAP).
absolutely pathetic battery life. rotten key pad.
doesnt look classy at all.. (not to me anyway) n defintiely doesnt feel classy. the black one is atleast a bit on the betta lookin side.. the silver one (n thats the commonly available one) is absolutely BORING
even the MP3 quality isnt what i expected.
inspite of havin all the features WHY CANT I LIKE THIS PHONE.. is beyond ma comprehension. i jus got disappointed when i had to slide the damn thing n feel its plastic finish.. n then the cam was a TOTAL disappointment.
the key pad really gets annoyin within a short time. HONEST.
