Sony Ericsson is going back!

Hello,
I don't know what makes Sony Ericsson go back with their mobile features and quality, and also they just make the same phone many times again and again with different covers !!

1- SE had the most powerful mobile speakers, they were very loud and clear (P800, P900, P910, K700 .... ALL phones till W810, its speaker volume sucks) but now SE have the most terrible speakers in their phones
Nokia had the most terrible speaker volumes but now they are the best of the best (N81, N95, N73, N73 ME, E90, All Music Express Phones).

===========

2- SE had the best cameras in their phones, everyone know how K750 (it is not CYBER-SHOT) kicked N90's ass in taking photos (N90 has Carl Zeiss optics)
but now SE camera are bad (not the worst) no autofocus, video is too bad
Nokia now has the best camera phone (N82) which kicked K850's ass this time (K850 is CYBER-SHOT for god's sake).

===========

3-SE makes the same phone again and again but they change the cover !! since they made K750, all the next phones are the same:
1- 176X220 small screen
2- 2MP camera
3- Same software
4- they disabled the autofocus :blink:
examples:
K610 (it has 3G < the only difference)
V630
Z710
K618
K550
S500
K530
K630
K660
Z780
Walkman phones of these phones above also.

===========


4- SE had the biggest screen in their smart phones, but now they make it smaller n smaller:

P800 = 3 inchs
P900 = 3 inchs
P910 = 3 inchs

===

P990 = 2.8
M600 = 2.6
W950 = 2.6
P1 = 2.6
G900 = 2.4
G700 = 2.4

===

we can ignore P800, P900, P910 because they have different software with different screen resolution
but what about the others, they just keep getting smaller and smaller from 2.8 to 2.4 !! don't tell me to make the whole phone smaller cause the can kepp exactly the same shape with 2.8 screen + nokia made N95 8GB with 2.8 screen with a really good size (N96 has 2.8 but the phone is even slimmer)


===========


there is a lot of things that makes SE go back but I have no more time to write them
I'll write them later.

Add the play/pause button to the list...now started omitting the very handy button and Nokia has started adding it.

Something is really wrong somewhere...earlier SE used to focus on style as utility...now they're focussing on neither.

Never liked Motorola all my life but thanks to SE's complacency, lack of vision I've a Moto V8 and may just get a Moto or Nokia smartphone now that the Xperia may be coming in the fouth quarter.

Good going Sony Ericsson!

SonyEricsson i still love em and i believe things will get better i think at the moment their phones are poor except for 2 i like. Also their Walkman phones lately have dreadful music quality Nokia phones sound amazing my 6500 has fantastic sound. Only 2 i like look of now are W960 & W890. The W910 has awful music quality.

I think the only decent phones SE makes are for japan and the rest of the world gets since two years the same things but hopefully that will change.
You heard right I still have some faith in SE .

I remember back when the K750 was the newest thing out there... I just loved all the features put into a simple, budget design. That's what got me hooked to SE. But now they actually release a buggy phone with so many design flaws...

I guess they're in some kind of testing period or something... because this just doesn't seem like them.

I just think its a shame. So many of their latest phones have poor reliability poor build quality poor music quality cameras not up to normal standard and alot of their new phones always seems to have very muffled and very quiet call quality. Whats going on SE. So many other manufacturers have raced past them with their technology and new fresh innovations why i dont know. I for one wont buy any new phones of theirs until i see or hear of improvements. Sorry SE bring back the good old days.

Sincerely, I think most of the people here were hooked by SE's K750i, W800i or, if they could afford them, the P900/P910i. But after this, they went downhill..

What kind of a testing period could this be? testing old hardware to the limits? or testing our patience? i guess we're the beta-testers, right?
