You'll want it even more when you see it for yourself live

For free of course

I have 1 question. Is the screen realy 2.6 ? bcuz the N95 screen looks bigger as u can see here http://youtube.com/watch?v=asOg-5CAjq8&mode=related&search= (3:22). Im trying to make my mind which phone to choose (w960 or n95 8gb) and if the difference is that big it would be even more compered with the 8gb version and im kinda of display lover ^^ sooo... im asking if u can make some sample pics of w960 and N73/N95 in it

Ah, I remember how I convinced one of my friends to buy this phone back in the summer. It was rather easy, you know...
Naturally, she still wants to replace her K550 with the W960.

I personally can't wait to own one. Though it doesn't have any great advancement in terms of technology and software, I felt this phone is still a must have for all gadget lovers.

Yes! The memory in the W960 will behave just like a memory from any other phone. Im using my memory to transfer all kinds of things.
Posted by tobias84
I really hope that W960 will be released october 18 and not week 49..
Posted by dsr27
my mate was telling me this morning on the way to work that he asked how much it would cost to upgrade from w950 and was told about £100 and then he was told that he could do this oct28th! not long to wait if this is true
Posted by PeterKay
the £100 upgrade price will shoot up nearer the time!
Posted by dsr27
he was actually told that if he waits till december, not sure when in december that it would only cost about £20! part of me wishes that I'd got a contract phone many yrs ago lol but i think I'll stick with my sim free at the moment
Can anyone confirm the date of release though? would much prefer it to be the week before in october cause I'm not at work and could spend that week playin with my new greeat phone
hehe
Posted by m-one
AFAIK the W960i will hit the shelves on 3rd December.
Posted by tobias84
I have heard week 41 or 42. Or october 18, it's week 42.. I hope so..

i love everything about his phone, except the camera pictures, which are pretty bad, compared to my w900i, 1 more question, the video taken by the phone, is encoded using 3gp or mp4? thanks.
Posted by PeterKay
3gp.
The camera pictures aren't all that bad for a 3.2mp!!
I actually think its fine.
Posted by toughkid
sorry pk, i asked u a lot of things and i'm sorry... is it possible to receive some answers (if u have time)?
i think it could be usefull to watch a video where there are basic functions done with the fingers.
i try to explain:
_block/unblock the screen with bottom-left + other switch
_set the phone in silence mode (bottom-right swtch)
_write an sms
_answer a call
_call a friend (his number is in the rubrica)
_receive a message and reply to it...
is it possible not to have the walkman app always on the center of the screen?
what about the menu icons on the bottom-left of the screen?
10x!
Posted by r3351925
AAH, Sony Failed me again, 3gp = crap, maan did u c the video quality of the n93 and the n95? nevertheless, i still prefer this phone against any nokia phone, i love sony ericsson.
That phone captures video @ 320x240 30fps, my w900i does the same, where is the improvement? Maybe the w960i has a little bit more bitrate than the w900i.
Anyhow, can you send me the same video sample u have on youtube on my email: rocker_baby_3@hotmail.com, i would really appretiate doing so
.
Any idea when this phone is going to be released in United arab emirates?
thanks for you reply
.

thanks PK for the review!
just 2 questions:
- does it has a qwerty onscreen keyboard, just like the w950?
- how is the battery doing compared to the P1i and is there any chance that the W960 by the release date will support the P1i battery?
many thanks!
Posted by PeterKay
Yes it does have the onscreen QWERTY keyboard same as the W950i, P990i, P1i.
Battery i think will be changed from BST 33 which i have.

cheers for the review. am looking forward to getting this one.
how do you fast forward a song? (you can f/f a track in the k750 by pushing the joystick to the right)
Also, I heard that the box comes with a case. Is that right?
Posted by fizzil
thnx peter, btw did you try avi videos in w960?
but it looks like you're too busy to answer all the questions
thnx for the review, i think im gonna buy w960i when it's released although it's taking too much time...

@PK,
Can you tweak the EQ, manually?
The three touch keys under the screen, i know they used to pause\\play and preview\\next while playing a song.
But what happen if you press them when not using walkman?
THANKS BUDDY.

@ kaiba
Jimster71 replied to this in the general W960i thread: the 3 walkman keys do not have any effect when the walkman is turned off.
Posted by fizzil
hmm... it appears that no one knows if avi works on w960?
Posted by PeterKay
No AVI file works.
Unless you add 3rd party software.
Posted by rockygali
wotda?!
anyway there still DivX players for symbians.. hope that one works..
anyway PK, would you happened to have some?! or would you like to try one?!
link: DivXPlayer.v0.86.UIQv3.SymbianOS9.1.sis
DivXPlayer.sis
i dunno the version of the latter...
can you please try that out.. and play any *.avi files thru it...
Posted by fizzil
thnx for the info, although it's kinda disappointing that w960 doesn't play all media such as avi and some other extensions
btw do u know any 3rd party software that can open avi files and all media?
(maybe core player?)
Posted by PeterKay
@fizzil, the post above yours will play avi files on the w960i without doubt, don't see what all the fuss is about really regarding media playback!! As the Mp4 videos i have watched are 30fps TV quality and Loud as hell. This phone is amazing to watch videos on as this is one thing i do most, the screen is huge and speakers brilliant, surely divx/avi/xvid/mpeg files will play with relevant software if you install it, this device is a video machine and yes folks 8gb is almost full
Posted by fizzil
thnx rockygali and Peterkay,
i have no doubt now that i'll buy this phone, although it's gonna be my first time having a SE phone i hope i can adapt myself to its usability, although it looks easy to accustom to
Posted by PeterKay
@fizzil, It may be your first but won't be your last...
Posted by fizzil
i hope so

@PK thanks much for answering my quests
