Oh, I didn't know that. I just read it in the newspaper but I know newspapers are notoriously late in posting events.
Any price for it?
Even SE Philippines doesn't know when I sent them an email

SE definitely knows coz i spoke with one of the people from SE.
they're even collecting lists of users... of P800 for example..
which they will use for database purposes.
estimate? i remember reading someone saying Z600 goes for 21-25k. Z200? i havent heard if it's on display.

according to the guys there at the booth, the z600 will be released sometime next month. No pricing still.

i was able to visit the SE booth at greenbelt 3 more than a week ago. tested the HBH-60 and found out that my T610 doesn't have the "crackling" problem. yahoo!
i also made a "test-drive" on the bluetooth car. nice toy to play with if you get bored at your workplace.
finally, i got my hands on the Z600. all i could say was... WOW!!! screen was noticably much better than the T610. interface is similar with T610's. its only disadvantage is that it's a bit thicker/bulkier when folded.
one of the SE girls there estimated the Z600's price at around 21-25k. its scheduled release is sometime this november.

will the z600 really bulge when in the pocket? i don't want to go around with a holster. I had one of those when I used the 6150.
I wonder how thick the x70 or the v600 is? hmmm...

Z600 is being sold in greenhills for P23,000

That is without warranty.

saw the z600, yes its kinda bulky when closed, it will bulge in the pocket for sure!
Posted by dmxmd
i already saw the unit, It's almost twice as thick as the t610.
Posted by kapitan jackal
bulky when folded? no problem! break it into two, put 1pc in each side pocket (pants)
Posted by dmxmd
hehehehe...
so now you have two pieces of device to deal with...
or if you don't want a bulky phone glue shut the hinges. Viola! A thin semi-clamshell semi-candy bar phone...

ahem ... please stay on topic.

They're going to release the T630. I wonder how much better it is than the t610. I guess they must've realized they had a real lemon with the t610.
But then again, one website said the t630 might be targeted at the 'youth and ladies'.

i went to the SE exhibit at greenbelt on its last day. Yes, the z600 is quite huge on the pocket when folded. Also from their brochures, there is the SE t230 which stated with 850/1800 bands. Will the 850 work here since what I know, all our networks are on the 900 and 1800 bands? just asking.
Again for the 1800 band just in case, I think the 1800 only works in the metropolis but not Luzon wide (especially for Smart).

hmmm... since when did the T610 become a "real lemon"?
Posted by dmxmd
Since they charge you 17,000 pesos for a STN screen and a camera that isn't that useful anyway.

I strongly disagree that the T610 is a lemon. No NOKIA in the T610 class can surpass what the T610 has.
Still that STN screen is the 2nd best screen on a cellphone in the market today, 2nd only to the SAMSUNG v200, as for the camera well, only the 3650 and the 7650 surpassess it in quality, with others it's very much the same.

Really, so how come a lot of people complain that it's dificult to read under direct sunlight?
Of course you can say that you can change the color theme so that you can see more clearly.
We can go back and forth on this.
I can say it's a lemon because of it's poor screen and not worth the price.
You can counter that.
I'll say that it only has 2 mb.
You'll say who needs more than 2 mb?
I'll say you 'might' need more because of the camera and downloaded apps.
Yada yada yada
I didn't say that this brand was better than this brand in offering something in its class. I'm not a brand hugger. I go for which phone offers the best features for the money.
Respect my viewpoint that for me the t610 is too expensive for the quality and the features it has. If it were 30% cheaper then i'll bite. But until then...
