Hi guys after about of month of researching on the new phone to buy I finally bought a SE k750i.
i will delve not only in the technicalities of the phone but also the shopping experience in bangalore.
the phone:-
the k70i is a gem of a phone with 2 megapixel camera with
-autofocus
- continuous 4x zoom(the picture doesnt get pixelated if you do the zoom)
-panorama, frames and burst mode
-regular picture effects
-white balance
yes if you have a digital camera then you will recognize the amount of technology has gone into this mobile camera that it can easily rival some good digicams.
media player
-it can run in the background
-has a special key on the side to directly play pause the player anytime
-comes with 34+64 mb of ms pro duo memory
-the loudspeaker volume is good enough but not very loud
-handset provided has the legendry sony earphones
-overall a good mp3 player
other application
has musicdj, videodj(yes you can edit your videos with special effects in the phone ) and picture dj.
world time
synchronizer software included connectivity
-bluetooth -infrared
-usb 2.0
- gprs lacks the ’edge’ connectivity
games
is better than ngage in gaming engine ,
has screen as big as ngage - has awesome game inbuilt
the joystick(phones main navigation button) can be used to play the games built quality and user friendliness
the phone is light weight and is vwry small for the kind of package it provides
the navigation system is so great that nokia user will have no difficulty in finding their way through.
it has incorporated best controls and interface from nokia and its old model. the
great shopping experience
- I browsed through the websites to get hold of dealers in bangalore and this particular website gave the no.s of most of dealers in bangalore.

i called around 10 stores to inquire about the price global access sells the phone for around 19400/- the lowest was sangeetha for 18636 for on cash payment and I decided to buy from them ( they are also the authorised dealers for SE).
When I reached the store they said that they are out of stock of k750i since they never anticipated that it will sell like hotcakes .
On my repeated persuasion the guy called many other links for a phone and finally a great piece was available after two hours of waiting I got the phone
Sangeetha gives you great package with phone
A theft and loss insurance free of cost
will give you great price for your old phones ( yes they have exchange scheme)
a new connection free of cost So I got a good value for the phone i.e 18636- 1100 = 17536( motorola c-300 b/w 3 years old).
conclusion
the k750 I is a one cool phone to have . it has got great looks and all round functionality. The phone has received worldwide great response and is rocking india too. You can expect the prices to go down in six month , but the decline will be low in price because of insane demand. Also look for great deals with the phone since it can reduce the overall cost
