Well, b4 i get flamed by k700 lovers i'll quickly state my point.
I've been using a K700 for 3months now and i've had to visit my doctor cos of sore ears.
The edges at the top is just too damn sharp and always uncomfortable when placed on the ear.
I can no longer bear this and wonder why nobody here has complained about this....
I also wonder why SE could design a phone that way......

Never heard of such a problem with the K700! Lol! P.S: You can use the handsfree can't you?

Hmmm, I guess it all depends on how you hold your phone. I see what you mean, but I hold the phone to my ear in a manner that I had never noticed those edges before. With a slight ajustment of my wrist those edges do quite hurt though! |

after spending so much to purchase a phone, the least i'll expect to do is to keep adjusting the phone in order to prevent sore ears..
SE has failed here and i'll have to discontinue the use of this k700 or risk loosing my beautiful ears |

Maybe you should try a Bluetooth headset ? 
Sure, i admit, the K700i can be a little uncomfortable on the ear, but its not a problem if you hold the phone flat to your ear and not at an angle. Like already said, it depends how you hold it.

Sell off your K700 and get the K750! Or a W800! Hope they don't have similar problems!

I have to say I found my K700 was a bit uncomfortable on the ear too, and it did hurt a bit after a long phone call. Not enough to see a doctor mind, but it certainly wasn't the most comfortable phone I've used!

No handsfree or BT for me, hate them.
I'll rather sell off the k700 and wait for k750 or W800..
I just hope they wont have this problem too cos if they do, then F**K SE cos I'm goin for motorola A780 or Samsung D500.

well, missuk
I'm not an SMS freak, I do business with my phone and make calls all the time, k700 battery is also poor and is actually a second point why i'm probably gonna drop it anyway.
well, I enjoyed it and also suffered while it lasted.
BYE to k700!!! |

I believe in using one reliable phone at a time.....
I'm gonna sell this k700 to anyone with super strong ears & interested then buy a Samsung D500 or Motorolla A780...
when k750 is available here i'll check to find out if this problem isn't present b4 buying it. |

Erm pretty sure i mentioned this here on Esato somewhere.. but as others baove have said, a slight adjustment as to how you hold it makes all the difference.
I use the handsfree though so no biggie most of the time.
CSS-25 solved long call problems, specially since i' usually need my hands fre to drink, eat, or play games n things

When you use your phone don't press it against your ear. Press your finger against your ear/face, that is holding the phone. This way there is always a slight gap between your ear and the phone.
