Well this is my first phone and my latest acquisition .. though I might have not owned a nokia I am aware of all the hype ( and its true ) of the stability of nokia handsets .. but I like things a bit classy , so I went ahead and bought a Sony Ericsson t630 . Many of my friends had advised me against this and would have me stick to the trusted nokia s ... Well Im glad I did wait!
Well , kind of ... yes , the battery life is nothing special , even with minimal use of games and bluetooth / IR . In fact with just about 5 mins of playin Vrally 2 a racing game supplied on the set .. the battery falls significantly enough to draw the users attention to it .. and alas .. there s no Fm and also there is no loud speaker mode is provided .. something dats provided for in my dads insipid looking nokia 2300 ...........
But wat the heck ... who cares about these minor irritants when we have a winner on our hands .. oh it looks wonderful .. u want to hold one in ur hand ( and that with the back cover attached ) to believe this ! also I believe that there s no such phone ( nokia included ) that can be bought in this range ( I got mine with bill Rs 9.4 k )
There have been comparisons galore with Nokia 7250i .. I believe that mine wins hands down .. why ? look at the features .. bluetooth , a better cam , a far superior display , wonderful icons ( compared to the standard phsychedelic icons of the nokias ) smsing much more fun , and mms though still a luxury for me ..should be more than adequate .. web reviewers call it one of the implementations of mms composers ..
One word of advice .. this is a small sleek phone , If u have fat flabby fingers ..u might not like this phone .. though I dont feel any difference personally , the buttons are right next to each other but the centre of all the buttons are elevated so u only end up pressing the center of each button .. no hassles
And frankly the plastic matchbox design nokia s uses for most of its phones makes them look like they just came out cheap 20 $ shop .. this one is delicate looking but will not squeak even if u press it really hard .. build quality is above average and certainly better than the t610 wich it has succeded .
My review might seem only about the wow factor but trust me the phone is stable as a rock and there are no connectivty issues even with the totally bakwaas trump connection I have in delhi .
And there again ... just point me out 1 phone that provides u the same features and class at the same price ?
cheers !!
