Just thought it would be interesting to see what everyone’s first SE experience was, mine was back some time in 2003 when a friend got a T610, at the time I thought it was huge and I hated it (I had always had small clamshells). I would never have thought I would be looking to buy my 3rd SE handset this weekend, or that everyone in my home would also own a SE handset. I’m sure that for some of you the love of SE handsets goes even further back then the T610
In my rush I forgot to post what my first SE Phone was, it was a w810i and I loved it to bits…still think its better then my k800i but that might be because I’ve had a lot of problems with the k800i handsets that T-Mobile kept sending me (bloody refurbs!!) but I got a brand new sealed one off them eventually!

First phone, to last phone....
- Bosch 509e (payg)
Siemens C25e (payg)
Nokia 8210
SE T68i
SE T610
SE K700i
Nokia 6280
SE K800i (keeping for another contract term, as its so good)
Looking forward to getting the K850i, but it looks kinda chunky. Might just settle with W880i, as would love a slim phone, and Motorola's are too buggy.

@stetwin, great topic you've got here! My first experience with SE doesn't go as far back as some of the others here at Esato, and I started off with the legendary K750i. I was so pleased with it that I even started a thread on it! But as I'm posting from my phone now, I'm unable to provide a link to it. The thread title's "My new K750i, loving it". I was fortunate to have an absolutely pleasant experience with my first SE phone, which was why I bought the W810 two days back, and which I'm posting from right now! It takes all the positive traits of the K750i and adds more of its own! I'm loving it already, but I won't sell my K750i either.

hmmm, k800 - k810. not much of an upgrade. i did similar, sorta, had k800, then went p990, w880 couple other phones in between and went k810, got very bored of it straight away as i had owned a k800. though keypad is very comfy when typing sms.... oh well... each to their own..... good luck....

t610-i still think its one of the best looking phones.also very solidly built.
Posted by Lunion
T68i was my first
can honestly say i loved that phone
Posted by himlims_nl
i remember it as the day before yesterday.
it was a sunny spring day, with birds who song their favorite ringtone.
i walked into a mobile retail shop, at that point it was just like a movie.
all sounds stoped, in a slowmotion way i walked to her.
we were connected at once, like a paired bluetooth headset.
so i touched here gently, and moved my thumb over the power swich.
which made here buzz. a couple times.
i knew it this is the one i've been looking for.
her bright blue eyes lighted up, like cat's eye's in the dark.
i must have her, i must take her with me.
at that point my ericsson-phobie began.
and a long lasting relation ship with my T65 ... which never ended
*sigh*

back in 2003 when i had my externship, i would often hang around at Greenhills (the mobile phone hub in RP). still have no money of my own then so i window shop for future dream phones. at that time, i was a connecting-people-phone fan.
but i got curious why in every stall i went to, people lined up to buy SE Z600, SE Z200. that was the start of my curiosity with SE. I first got a hand though in trying an phone with a T630 from a workmate. and at that time, i was impressed. in 2005, incorporated a breakthrough in cellphones: Autofocus. All the more was i impressed. so i got myself my first phone: a k750. which i lost after 6 months. but i do own a w810 now

Well, my first experience with Sony Ericsson was the T610. Prior to that however, I had owned quite a few Ericssons, the first of which was the GH388, followed closely by the T10 (later upgraded to T18 software), then T28! Currently enjoying my P990i...
Posted by Sammy_boy
My first
experience was a T610 which I bought off Ebay as damaged back in about 2004 (A dog had chewed it, it had a broken LCD and the facia was full of teethmarks), but fixed it and loved the phone! (Also meant I found Esato too!)
I had initially been put off Ericsson/SE after having a T10s and not liking the phone at all, the T610 changed all that

My first
was the w800, now i got w810 and am very happy, infact im scared to upgrade haha

Amen to that!
the k750/w800 combo made nokia rushing to their feet and launch the N series. k750/w800 set the trend. Others imitated. Kudos to !

Ericsson T18d --> Motorola C333 --> Motorola E380 --> SE T637 --> SE W810i black (stolen by a mother f***er on June with a gun in my back and a blackberry pearl) --> SEW810 (white).
Posted by abbafan1972
My first SE was a K700i at the beginning of 2005. it was ok, but look crap now by today's standard.
Mother and father in law both have T630 which were bought 2nd hand off Ebay some months back. But that is only cos they won't spend any more than £30 on a phone.
I have had K700i, W800i (hated it, sold after a week), W900i (hubbys) K750i, K610i (hubbys) and now I have a W810i which I've had for 12 months and now a K810i which I've had for a week or so.

why did you choose white for your second w810 unit?
Posted by bogdan0
Two and a half years ago I started shy with an SE T230i, and I had only good experience with it. I mean for the money i gave for it, it was worth it.
And now, I have a two weeks old SE K750i.
Very cool phone, since summer of 2005 i was dreaming buying this phone.

My First
was W800i but my first phone was A1018 after which i switched to Nokia for a long time
Posted by goldenface
I was an SE virgin until I had a fling with a rather frumpy T300. Needless to say that relationship didn't last, we just didn't communicate, plus the joystick got stuck and then fell off. Eek! The T610 though has been a keeper. ;-)

I had the original T68, that was my first Ericsson phone, quickly followed by the T68i. It's funny, I know there wasn't ALOT of difference, casing aside, but I cannot remember what they were. Foolishly I went from the T68i to a Nokia 7210. I then jumped back on the SonyEricsson band wagon once more with a P900, never to leave them again!
Someone know what the differences between T68 and T68i were? I wish I still had the phone.
Posted by obakesan
First SE phone for me was the T610 when it came out couple of years ago now. Before that had used Nokia phones which were fine at the time.
The phone just appealed and it just worked, I mean, the BT worked, the IR worked, everything worked as you expected. It felt good in the hand and you could do whatever with it. Plus it seemed there was a large community of great people with the phone (and later SEs) sharing all sorts of tips etc.
Havent touched a Nokia since, largely in part they went all wierd with their designs I think in recent years. With N-series they seemed to have gotten back on track. N81 is tempting, but still holding out for W960 lol
Cheers,

This is nostalgic:

You know what I miss about the T68i, the way the keys were backlit a lovely blue.
Most keypads are backlit either white or orange now.
