I hope it they'll get it right this time. I don't mine if they release it 3rd or 4th quarter next year as long as it has "up-to-date" features.

what's the deal between
and mid-low end mobiles??
we havn't seen any high-end mobile for a long time (beside P1)
2005 we've seen K750+W800+W900 at that time those mobile were the best
but now there's nothing like that
Posted by >500
@cristiano
thats coz everyone was inspired by k750/w800
and saw that they really need to step up against these sorta phones...... seems has slowed a little, will pick up pace soon though ...
Posted by scareface
what's the future of the M series??
...the M610 was canceled and the P1i is a mashup between m600 and p990 features
Posted by bodum
nobody knows yet, and for all we know the m610 never existed and was supposed to be the p1i all along. looking at the market, the corporate telephony market as a whole is dominated too by the Nokia E series, maybe SE is pulling the M series completely? who knows, until the next announcement that is...

According to the mobile-review successor of the P990 will be anounced in the end of 2007 - beginning of 2008. Will have a flip and better cpu than P1

There are some people on HowardForums (I know that isn't exactly the most reliable place in the world, thus why I'm asking here) who swear up and down that Sofia will have tri-band 3G. Now, I can see the argument for that (the Z-whatever-it-was has quadband GSM and triband 3G), but I just don't see it happening, unfortunately. What's Esato's take on this?

why not? its a good way to improve SE's market share in US IMO
Posted by laurenke01
I wasn't saying I would complain if it were true!
It just seems...too good to be true, for whatever reason.

its not too good,possibly its the only trick that SE can use to sell Sofia,with all these high end Nokias these days(don't forget N82 and N83)
Posted by laurenke01
Right, that's what I was thinking.
The trend with SE, it seems, is to only stick triband GSM and 2100 in their high-end phones (look at the P1). Now, they said that they would try to target NA more this year, and they have (three mid-range phones with 850), but the high-end stuff (P1, T650) is still centered on Europe. Which isn't a bad thing if you're in Europe....but I'm not, and while I am going to wait for official specs on Sofia...I just don't see it having the 850 band, realistically. I would LOVE to be proved wrong.

Posted by icaka
so if you are thinking the same way as me and its logical for SE to implement the 850 band(considering NA which is said to be one of the SE's aims this year),then why not?T650 isn't a hi-end model,even the P1 isn't (its hi-mid end IMO)I don't understand why you are sceptical.

I'm skeptical because I don't want to assume something to be true and then have it not be correct. I'd much rather assume something (Sofia) to be less than what is "perfect," and then if SE does implement 850, I will be ecstatic.

ok,now I understand
but still,you should save some money,if not for Sofia,then for the hi-end flip phone(Z-series) which 99% will have what you need
Posted by laurenke01
Heh. Will do.
I despise flip phones, however, so I'd save for something else. S500, probably. Or, dare I say it, the N82. Heck, the thing looks like a K550.
Posted by icaka
yeah,good choice.
Its half-SE,half-Nokia

so is there's any new news about Sofia or just the regual things ??

Could be named Z810. A K810 but in a different form factor; improved specs include HSDPA and 2.2 inch screen. Launched in approximately 53 days (as of the 6th of Jan). True successor to the Z800. May also be SO903i variant. Slim design. Part of the Emotional Design range.
Announced on the 26th of March, 2007
The above link goes to W580. It's a typo only, isnt it?

totally agree!what a huge dissapointment from SE!
They have driven a lot of people to NOKIA (probably me also) with this strategy they are following. I remember in the begining of the year that there was going to be a huge portfolio of devices with some very high-end ones etc etc. And 5 months later all these have dissapeared. We are still waiting for a true K800 succesor or for a Walkman killer but nothing ahead...
What a pitty SE.....what a pitty...
Posted by iqtidar
i wish se was like in year 2005 releasing high end models like k700, s700, z800, k750,w800,w900,p990....
Posted by gauravsali
hey peterky nd sharilon ..as far as i know u v gave best of info..thanks for that.
now i want to ask that do u really hv any clue abt high end se phone which will reaaly compete with so called n95/81 or any nokia high end.phone
Posted by Ricky D
Could somebody who's seen Sofia please tell me if it will look as sexy as the N82 and also somebody with a shred of insider knowledge tell me which will be released first.
The first look at the N82 is making me excited.... at a Nokia! That's a first for me. Shame SE hasn't excited me yet this year. I just want to know if Sofia will look as sexy as N82 then I can stop beating myself up over contemplating the switch of manufacturer.
Posted by victorm
yeah please tell us ...
Posted by bodeh6
The N82 does look awesome. I only hope Sofia looks the same or better.
Posted by jjjajjj
The N82 do look like the W 880i - K 550i

Re: T650
here's where all that UI synchronized with light effects all started from (released in Oct 2006 as SO903i), also take note of the bubble interface
http://stream.itmedia.co.jp/lifestyle/articles/0611/29/so03.avi
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=EvYQPHYby9w
you'll find out later how this is relevant to what's going on to the rest of the year.
there's also a new cam module coming along, expect to see much better color, and I'm not talking about the 5MP module that's finalized
if you look at SE jpn's UI, that's some of the small things that Nokia has yet to catch up
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JyA2uKFvbmA
and on W44S http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LPcgWcqVMPg
some other light effects http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vxU6IR4EVwQ
a coupla more shots of the to-be-announced W52S
give it another week or so

Hey xumdeo, you really seem to be aware of all thats going on with SE, even if you cant tell us much, can you atleast tell us how long do we have to wait to see something worth-while (dont need a specific date )
Posted by bodum
I don't know what I'm missing here, but another week or so to what, xumdeo? thanks for that piece of information, it's very enlightening and puts hope in my soul
. and that soon to be released Japanese phone, doesn't the keypad look uncannily like the k550i?
Posted by JC08
Go0d news, hope se get their hinds in high gear.....

another week for announcement of w52s...

(there's also a new cam module coming along, expect to see much better color, and I'm not talking about the 5MP module that's finalized )
so you are talking about another mobile not sofia
wil it have 5mp or less
Posted by >500
afaik its likely there is more than one 5mp phone....
Posted by soane28
The 5mp module is finalized, so im guessing he means 3.2 megapixel. Good to know sofias cam is sorted out, that means its pretty much ready
Posted by JC08
I think se is just waiting 2 see how the sales of the k810 goes bfore they decide on an announcement date for Sofia...
Posted by prototype_bo
somehow i don't expect that any additional SE announcement would include more than 4 handsets. otherwise competing companies would eventually come up with similar devices (even better) and ruin SE potential profit

That idea sounds plausible. I know of one network in the UK that has declined taking up the K810i and instead will be lowering the price of its K800i .
If this becomes a pattern with other operators then hopefully
will thrust the K850i upon us.
I think xumdeo was telling us he will have more shots of the W52s in a week or so.
