What is better about the T650i then the T700? I thought the only difference is the HSDPA on the T700. |

I got the Black on Silver, and regretted it later because the Red on Black looked a lot nicer in the pictures. But I dont regret it anymore because of how perfect the phone looks. Pictures on the internet arent as good as the actual phone is, the Black on Silver is a great looking handset, and I am sure the Red one is too.
I'm deffinately not keen on the Shining Silver version though, because the shiny brushed Black metal is just too good - The real choice is between Black on Silver, or Black on Red. Best thing to do is to wait untill it is available in stores and compare them all yourself and pick your favorite.
Royal Mail messed up my delivery, it took 8 days to arrive since dispatch and I was thinking it was lost in mail. But it wasnt and it arrived at last. I'll have pictures taken from my K800i up in a bit, plus I'll compare the cameras - But the T700 doesnt have either AF or Flash, but the LED light on it is very powerful.
Oh, also, I am relieved that I didnt get the asian version of the handset. It is the european one with a universal charger in the box, but a seperate UK charger provided for free by the E tailer. All the manuals and everything on the phone is in full English with no Chinese anywhere (except for made in China stickers), and the manual says that warranty is provided from Sweden, so it looks safe for warranty service withing Europe

I bought a t700 awhile ago. I noticed when i plugged the charger, it displays the message CHARGING and not the usual
OPTIMIZED CHARGING..
Anyone encountered this?

GSM Arena said it records video in QVGA@15fps, while SMAPE said QVGA@30fps. Could anybody confirm, please? Thank you. |

Hmm, bit of a misnomer this one. I'm not sure how exactly they get away with calling this stereo. There's a speaker at the front in the earpiece and a second at the back at around the same height. Message alerts, ringtones when received are played through the rear but when listened 2 from your file browser (or music in the same way) is played through the front. Strange? Very! Usefull? Doubtfull. I've had my T700 for about a month now and have 2 admit I love it. Fantastic phone to text with. Far superior to the T650, dimples on my thumbs from the keypad on that were becoming a pain lol |

OPTIMIZED charging is different from plain charging..
The other phones released this 4th quarter (c905, w902, w595, x1, w302), do they not make use of OPTIMIZED charging?
Is it only T700 that exhibit this non-optimized charging?

Im sure they do! Optimized charging is used in a lot of the walkman and cybershot phones. This only charging thing must be due to the model being non suppoerted by other brands such as cybershot or walkman. |

The stereo speakers are the two holes on the bottom centre of the rear of the phone. Thats where my sound is coming from. I thought the video capture is QVGA 15, no way that a phone this cheap will be 30 fps.
No, im wrong about the speakers, what are those two holes on the bottom of the phone then?

Actually mate, optimized charging have been around SE phones for a long time. (since s700/k750/w800 days not sure though bout k700) and it is NOT cybershot and/or walkman specific.
ALL  phones i saw, have used, have owned, have known since 2004 exhibit optimized charging. Not until T700.. 
if you read the manuals, you will come to appreciate what 's Optimized charging do in phones

Speaking about the speaker.. Is it good enough? Gsmarena says that the 'tin can' sound comes from the speaker which is disadvantage.. Is it that bad? Or is it still on par with the w890? And how do you compare it with k630 or v640 coz I have one.. Many thanks |

Well, ive only owned k series phones before this one, but the sound is tinny, but also pretty clear, crisp and decent. The earphones that come in the box are quality ones as well. The sound is definately one speaker on the front and back, which isnt really stereo unless you hold the phone sideways. |
