[...]why call W910 a great phone? What does it have that makes it great? If W910 is great, then W890 must be the holy grail



Why? The W890 doesn't have an accelerometer and has a smaller screen. The only thing it really has over the W910i is the 3.2MP camera which is pretty much just as average as the W910i's 2MP unit.


Werent you the one who barely noticed half an inch less in screen diagonal on your C902?



Yeah that was me. But the size of the screen seems like almost the most important thing on a phone to most people here, so thats why I added it in.

I don't know which is better, but for the first time ever I'm thinking of jumping ship, particularly to Samsung. Just when I thought SE was producing better phones, other manufacturers go a notch higher, and I'm eyeing Samsung in particular because the design is getting more and more attractive to my eyes

I must say Samsung do have attactive offerings in their portfolio. After being annoyed with the W960i (UIQ is a horrid smartphone OS) I jumped ship to the Samsung i780 and it is without doubt the best smartphone I have ever used.

I now use my iPhone 3G on a daily basis simply because of the iPod function and the fact I have a MobileMe account so can get push e-mail on it but when I go out the phone I always take with me is my W890i. For me its the only phone from SE lately that offers a stylish design with half decent features. I agree it is probably overpriced and I would not have paid the RRP for it (bought it from here off PK) but it does give me a glimmer of hope that SE can produce something half decent.

I think we all realise 2008 hasn't been the best year for SE so lets hope with the release of the X1 and C905 (neither are world beaters, but do beef up SE's portfolio) 2009 is the year they try and regain their form.
