Better Music Phone....the W910i Or The Nokia 5610?

[Devine.Integrity]

Decided. Getting the W910.

So currently, as of right now, I have a K550i.

It is a great phone with lots of functions. It has a 2.0 megapixel camera and it also

has a music player. The only thing I dislike about this phone is that I got the white

version and since Im not really careful with phones, scratches made on the phone

leaves a dark black imprint on the side of the screen. Even the buttons are starting to

deteriate. Its like the silver buttons are peeling off the buttons. No only that, I just dont

find it appealing anymore and plus the earphone jack is jacked up. I might be sending it

back to Sony to fix it up, but I just want a new phone.

Im thinking of getting a walkman phone since I love listening to

music with my cellphone and I dont really use the camera anymore since

I bought a digital camera a while ago. Plus, I DONT have an Ipod, and

carrying a PSP just for the mp3 player is stupid and big. No playlists as well.

--------------------------------------

EDIT: 5.12.08

Okay, so I discovered a website called timtechs.com and it sells there phones for pretty cheap.

Has anyone ever tried buying their phones from that website. I heard from websites that it is a reliable

place to buy phones.

Here are my new two choices.

w910

This is a very good phone as what I heard from reviews and it has a very nice feature.

I didnt really notice it till now since I always thought that the design looked like crap, but

then I found out what it could really do and I was happy.

Key features

☆ HSDPA (3.6 Mbps), EDGE, Bluetooth (with A2DP)

☆ SensMe™ and Shake control features

☆ Slim sliding construction

☆ Media Center, Walkman 3.0

☆ Dedicated Call and End keys

☆ Fast photo browser

☆ Ample 2.4" display

☆ Powerful loudspeaker

☆ FM radio with RDS

☆ 1GB or 2GB M2 card included, M2 USB card reader

Nokia 5610

I bought the little sister of the 5610 and god I hated her. The Nokia Xpress 5300 broke on

me within two months after I got it during my birthday last year. But this 5610 looks promising.

I heard that this phone is coming out to T-Mobile during May 21st, and I was wondering if it might

be cheaper than 300 bucks? I really like this phone after watching it on youtube.

Key features

☆ High-quality construction, steel highlights

☆ 3G support with video calls

☆ 2.2" TFT QVGA display

☆ 3 megapixel camera with autofocus

☆ UMTS, EDGE, GPRS

☆ Advanced music functions, radio with RDS

☆ Stereo Bluetooth

☆ Good keypad

☆ microSD memory card slot

☆ Can HOLD UP TO 4GB

Both are 300 bucks and both are music phones So which one?

I have the w380i. I like it but I'm not in love with it. I hate the small screen and the fact that it does not record videos. If you have any questions about it, i'll be happy to answer.

Don't know how much the w910i is but i heard many good reviews of it. Maybe you should check it out.

It has a small screen? From the pictures it doesnt look like it. But

tell me some good features of it and why you bought it and stuff.

How about the 1.3 megapixel camera? Does it take bad shots, I mean

I dont really care for the camera, I just want an okay one so just in case

of any emergency I can use it.

Oh yeah and I checked the w910i and its over 300 bucks -__-

I cant afford that much lol!

[Guest aaandy]

If you spend $50 more you can get this.

SE W910i

http://www.mobilecityonline.com/wireless/s...productid=22815

*240 x 320 pixels, 2.4 inches

*2 MP, 1600x1200 pixels, video(QVGA@15fps); secondary videocall camera

and just for drools I'd check out the SE W960 8GB

http://www.mobilecityonline.com/wireless/s...productid=22419

[Guest Nuke]

I like the w380's looks better, but since you're actually looking for functionality too, I'd say to go with the w660.

Someone mentioned the w910 - if you look into that, I can personally recommend it. The volume isn't as loud as with the Nokia music xpress phones (my brother has one), but it's good enough for me, haha.

Hmm...I was thinking of getting the W910i but I really am not able to

spend more than 300 bucks. I like the way it looks and stuff but I dont have the money :[

But yeah, that W960 is hot! I wish I had more money. But I want a phone

right now lol. Thanks for the recommendations.

Yeah, I like the W380's look better as well, I mean, the inside of

the phone doesnt look that bad. Its looks pretty neat. And compared

to the razr, this beats the crap out of it. At first I was thinking of getting

the W380, but its functions....lol, I dont know! I still need more opinions.

[Guest dorkafied!]

how about that phone? xS

[Devine.Integrity]

^Lol. That is not a walkman player.

Its a kseries. Just like one of the phones I have right now.

And Im not really looking for any camera phones as of right now.

Thanks for your recommendation though. I would have got it

if I havent bought a digi camera.

[Guest Mani4ever]

I have sony ericsson W880 and I LOVE IT!!

[Guest NEYUGN93]

just got a W1890i and it pretty good=)

just the W880i ^ above but a bigger keypad

it you dont like silver you can get gold or black and i think theres pink

EDIT- oops i mean W not 1 T.T

[Guest rinnie_chan]

The last one (I guess also the newest one) is pretty thin (:

I like it in white most haha.

I got the Walkman cellphone W660i and I looove it <3

Esp. the games and the music mate hehehehe

My suggestion is wait and save up money especially if you're buying it unlocked. If you're spending that much money on a phone it better be the phone you really want, than a phone you settled with because it was within your budget. ._. As for now the W660 because you said you don't really care about the camera cause you have a digital camera.

In addition, how can you compare the original Razr to the W380? The original Razr came out in 2004-2005 while the W380 was just released in March, of course the features are going to be better. ._. A better more recent comparison is probably the LG Chocolate.

Anyways here are some specs of the newest Walkman phones: W350 (within your budget) W960

W760 Review

W980 is coming out soon as well

Your kind of right, I mean....200 bucks for a phone. I dont know for sure

what Im going to do for now. but this is probably going to be given to me

during my birthday so I dont really care if I save up for money.

Wait...I never compared the Razr with the W380..do you mean the W580?

I wasnt really comparing them on features and ect. I was just comparing them

because everybody is starting have this phone and I dont like it when there people

have the same phones, such as the Razr, which I believe, at least in my place, alot

of people have.

I dont really like the looks of the 350 because I also care about design as well.

And I wish I would have enough for those new phones that are coming out that I believe are going to be

expensive. 400 dollars range or so.

I got the Walkman cellphone W660i and I looove it <3

Esp. the games and the music mate hehehehe

So how do you like it? How long did you have it for?

Im thinking of getting this since the person above recommended me for this

one as well. Hrm.

I think many people get the Razr because right now it's offered by all plans pretty cheaply and it's somewhat dependable. So yeah lol. I don't like having the same phone either. :]

By the way are you sure you want a Walkman Sony Ericsson? There are many phones that are also good or especially are for music. :]

By the way how much music are you planning to put on? Depending on the amount, you need to get different sized microSD's and that may change for phones. In addition I noticed that you're planning to change from a k-series to the walkman series. The music players are probably different so mess around with the walkman player before you buy as well. :]

Your absolutley right. I think there are other phones that have better

music players. Im actually looking a Nokia phone that is a music phone and

its appealing to me more than ever right now. Im also journeying through Samsung

phones too. I guess I can find better phones that are not just from Sony. Thanks

for somehow shifting my mind to other phones besides Sony Ericsson.

Yeah, for me, the screen is pretty small but since it's my first phone,

i'm not really complaining. the screen is 1.9in btw.

i bought it basically because i loved the looks of it.

i didn't care about the functions at all because like i said, it was my first phone.

the 1.3 mp is ok i guess. if you have a digi cam, i don't think it shouldnt even matter.

its ok to use it for some random shots here and there.

the thing i really hate was that is does record videos!! if i knew this, i probably wouldnt have got it.

Other than that, this phone has its good side also. If you don't mind the 1.9in screen and the fact that it doesn't record videos then i would recommend it.

Thanks so much for your time to tell me all

these specifications. Now that I think of it, you said it was your first phone right?

I guess it is a perfect phone to being with. But since I already had switched phones from

here to there I guess I might get another phone instead of this one. I mean not recording videos

is tough enough. I guess the w660 beats the functions of the w380. But I dare say that the

w380's look is pretty sexy. I like the looks only well too

Okay, so I went to timtechs.com and I found the super cool

w960i for only 300 bucks! Man thats cheap! i want to buy it badly now....now,

I want to buy this or either the Nokia 5610, both are very sexy! GAH! I shall

edit the first post to show.

[Guest sketchy62]

sonyericsson w960?

or nokia n81 8gb?

or iphone?

[Guest flyaway.]

Ah, timtechs.com. I've never ordered from there, but planning to (once they have the w760i back in stock).

I've also heard great reviews for their site, so I'm assuming it's pretty reliable.

Hm, as for which phone. I'd go with the w910i because I personally like the design better.

My friend has that phone and it's quite nice.

[Guest rinnie_chan]

So how do you like it? How long did you have it for?

Im thinking of getting this since the person above recommended me for this

one as well. Hrm.

I reaally like it!

I have it like for 3 months now.

I bought this, because it wasn't as expensive as some others.

And it'S pretty slim [unlike those huge cybershot phones (: ].

And acutally I'm not into sliders or folding phones.
