Just a short question for you. Do you think all Nokia's are superior all phone models from other manufactures. If not, could you please specify which model that are better than a Nokia phone?

Huh?? Weekend is coming 
> "Do you think all Nokia's are superior all phone models from other manufactures"
Of course not! Why would I think that even!?
But I'm just tired to hear this crap like Nokia are for kids who wants games and ringtones, and SE is much more advanced, etc. I know this is a SE forum, yet some objectivity would be more than welcome.
Even when you put facts in front of their eyes, they play hypocrit. No can do.
> "If not, could you please specify which model that are better than a Nokia phone?"
I can't really name a model better than another one. This is mostly subjective. It depends on what you really care about. To me, a good design, good quality, Java, radio, polyphonic ringtones weigh much more than bluetooth. To others, it seems Bluetooth is everything. So for me 7210 is better than T68i. But for these others T68i is better.
But I can say T68 is better than 1610  Seriously if you really want some examples, T68 is better (to me) than 8310 or 6510.
But I wouldn't give my 7210 for a T68i. No way. Not for a T300 either. Neither for a GD87.
Cheers! |

jst a thought....ignore if you feel like it.
why not try getting a pocketpc for gaming ,music,internet and lots n lots of applications(thousands) instead? your small,really small t68 in your shirt pocket is for voice calls, maybe games if your bored and sms/mms.
you can actually have both for the price of a 7650 or even a 7210.
t68i ($50 after rebates)
toshiba e740 ($399 lowest price)

Good point. But the Nokia 7210 is only £99 here with contract, 7650 is a similar price - plus it will probably fall even further as soon as 6100 and the like are available (actually ignore that, I'm sick of talking about phones that aren't on the market).
Two devices is not a bad idea, lots of flexibility, but... one device is neater. One advantage of having two though is that if you are on the phone trying to talk about information stored on the phone, that's quite a pain (not impossible, just a pain), where as when you have two devices, it's no problem. |

@andrew...
i agree.
least you got my point. by the way, bubbles(wifi) is all around the US now. surfing the web with e740 is so neat, needless to say its also free.

I think it's obvious that SE goes after a higher tech/professional user. Nokia goes after a younger/kiddie audience for the most part. Yes they have the communicator and the 7250 which are more business oriented but I still think they mainly shoot for a younger market. If you look at the demographics for each companies sales you will see what I mean. The 7210 is not a professional users phone. Where as the T68 is. Nuff said. |

I don't think 'kiddies' is the correct word for it, maybe 'user non-technical' would be more the business term you lot are trying to put your finger on |

N7210 is like the Samsung SGH-T100 True i (except for the IRDA and GPRS) which I think was the first colored phone ever to be marketed.
SE is always developing new communication technology, Nokia copies
them. |

Are you kidding or what???
What do you mean by "developping new communication technology"??
Do you know how GSM was developped? How EDGE was developped?? How UMTS was developped??? How Bluetooth was developped???? Obviously not.

How about 'normal users' or 'majority of users'? Believe it or not, most of the people buying mobile phones today actually buy them just in order to make phone calls and use SMS. They don't care about WAP, color screens, MMS, Java, polyphonic ringtones, Bluetooth, etc.

Really? And from which SE device did Nokia copy their 6650 (a 3G dual-mode GSM/WCDMA phone)?

I didn't say that.
It is, like the rest, a standard jointly developped by a number of companies. |

Wasn't bluetooth developed by Ericsson alone?

Ericsson is a founding member of the SIG (special interest group).
It is weird that Nokia does do bluetooth in some products but not others, ie 8910 but not 6800 for example.
I guess like a lot of people I want the product that offers everything, but becuase Nokia target their phones but release a lot of models, you rarely find everything in one Nokia phone.
SE offers everything in one phone, the T68 has to be the most complete phone at the time of its launch, ie T68m had every technology going at the time, but it's product cycle is slow, and it has fallen behind the curve.
