Imho, nokia's r more euro in terms of styling. I hate 'asian' appearance and feel of my t230.. Older ericsson phones r far more ergonomic and pleasant :)

I am not an anti nokia type, but those fones design, menu system etc arent for my taste. And the nokia support was always a joke.

I like to be flash.

I believe Nokia's are very common. Including the new ones.

I'll still buy a Nokia if they bring out something that appeals to me, but for now......

UPDATE
I do like the look of the new 7710

I like (Sony)Ericsson phones, but I have to admit that some Nokia phones look much better than some SonyEricsson phones.

For example T310, 300 and Nokia 6100. The design of Nokia 6100 is defenetly better.






PS: BUT the design of T68i is still number ONE in the whole world of mobile phones!

Nokia bashing is the same as windows bashing......the market dominator gets all the flak........Mature users dont bother with such concerns, instead look for value......Nokia wouldnt stand the test most of the time in my personal opinion as some technoloies are provided by them at ridiculously high prices compared to competitors.....low quality mass produced sets are generally priced less to capture mass market. Obsolete products even in high end phones are still marketed by nokia in many parts of the world at exorbitant rates.

Well, im not exactly anti nokia! Their to nes are not good and screen is 4096 color, but only in lower end models. On the other hand, they got loads of java apps and games. Likeness depend on needs.

Too many models coming up, so I became uninterested to even get to know what's coming from them.Show me any latest phone from Nokia, I wouldn't know shit about them. The designs are also not up to my taste. Ugly looking things.

With Nokia, you feel restricted. I remember my brother's 6610, you can't send pictures to others, you can't even send ringtones from one Nokia to another. That's kinda lame. So, f**k off Nokia. Sorry.

They dont last under some of the conditions or situations in which i use a mobile. And i also find them rather limited .. Along with no style to them...

I agree with Rul. I'm not anti nokia and never had problem with Nokia cos I've never own a Nokia phone b4. The reason why I bought my T610 was bcos:
a) read loads of 5 star review about it
b) Its smart looking design(business look) and features
Its suited me instantly and when I first look at the phone, there's no turning back for me. I grabbed the phone ( the only one in the shop) immediately. At the time when I bought it, its not one of the cheapest (compare to Nokia) but the opposite. But one thing I don't like about Nokia is that the earpiece becomes hot when u spaek too long.

i agree with the comment a couple of posts up (sorry cant remember posters name!) nokia saturate the market with phones so much i cant keep up! other posters say 6610, 7250 etc and i havent a clue which phone they are talking about. the last nokia i would know from its model number would be the 8210! (no joke.)

I need the telephone in my job and it is quite irritating to talk with bad connecting phones as the nokias often are! The battery capacity, acoustics, menus and style are somehow disappointing!

What exactly is an "asian" appearance?
resistance is futile.
