Right. I'm planning to upgrade from my W800i to a W900i next week. The thing is my network isn't 3G enabled yet. I really just want to know if a 2.5G sim card will work okay in this phone. Obviously, I won't have 3G functions, but I do work in a phone shop, and I have seen issues with 2.5G sims and phones, mainly Samsungs and the SE K608i. The SE V800 seems to work fine. I don't want to have to spend 650euro on this, only to have me using the sim card I don't normally use.
Thanks!

I think it should work, but if your service provider doesn't support 3G those functions won't work. but just to make sure ask them or check it while trying the handset.

I already know my service provider doesn't provide 3G. I work for them. All I want is 2.5g services to work on the phone.
Anyone else know whether it does work? Thanks

It works fine on W900. Me too using 2.5g sim.

Also you can switch of the 3G reception and only use GSM... that should be fine
Hope this helps
Cheers
ENJOY

Thanks, man. Exactly what I wanted to know. Ordered it today. Should be here by Wedneday.
