Hi all
Today I just came to know about very sad news for all SE fanboys include my self when I read on "gsmarena.com" that SE got 5th place globally instead of getting better the LG whom are newer then SE in mobile industry but at last ranked 3rd globally and one day they Samsung and Nokia as well.What I think the main problem for SE is its high price.Although phones are better then LG and others industries although especially in term of battery as well in features but the price is the main reason backing SE to ages. Hope SE now learned much and they may now bulid the best phones all rounder and will gain it position again.

i'm sure se will sort there shit out. . Tho i gota say, i dont think se are better than others when it comes to hardware or features...far from it. But then, like you say, your a fanboy, so i didnt expect anything impartial. That would be ridiculous on a se themed site lol.

there are several things wrong with that.

-SE are MASSIVELY overpriced for what they offer, and especially for the shoddiness of their 'quality'
-LG are offering phones that are not just better in features, reliability of software, and quality of build, but are also being offered at a cheaper price that SE
-SE need to do something about their lack of quality (ie lack of build quality and bugginess of their handsets which has plagued them consistatly throughout the years)
-SE need to do something about their tediously samey designs
-SE need to think of some fresh ideas instead of carrying on with the same tired cybershots and walkmans. people are way too bored f that now. neither their cameras nor their music players are seen as being the best in the eyes of the general public

Well even if it's still top 5 i can only name 5 big companies: nokia, samsung, lg, motorola and SE. So it's at the bottom of the companies that matter. although i have to ask is moto seriously 4th, or is there some other company wedged in there?
Ah well hope things start getting better soon

Yeah, but that difference is really small. One succesfull phone could change that.

Doesn't change that SE is doing bad, obviously, but they are not really much worse than Moto and LG.

the difference is small at this stage, but the main point here is that the trend in the direction that moto and SE are going (ie down) is opposite to that of LG(ie up)
