For me around 400+ or 400-. Only cause the C902 costs around 350 the W902 costs around 430(still after a whole freaking year) and the C905 costs around 460. They will release it for say 420 and the C905 will go down or stay the same. Its a smart move honestly to put something like this out there at a cheap yet a bit high up there price like 400 euros. It would be stupid though to sell this for more then 500 euros. If not 450 euros.
The C902 had a scheduled price cut for october, this hasnt haapened, for some reason.
....
Anyway realisticly if SE want the W995 to be succesfull it has to be priced competetley, so £300 (339 euros) sounds reasonable to me because the Tocco ultra editon is £350 (396 euros) and the inovo8 16GB is £350 (396 euros), the w995 doesnt stand a chane if it costs anymore, as we all know touch screen is the rage. Unfortuantley the W995 price will be £380 (430 euros) which is above all these which is a disastour for SE as the W995 lacks on pretty much on all fronts compared to the innovo and (arguabley tooco ultra) , if SE dont revise there pricing policy fast i fear se will be unable to to make a profit again  |

For us it has happened. Before October it was around 400 euros. Very strange stuff has been done here and I am sure the madness will continue. Exactly why the W995 will surely be only 400 euros or so. If it isn't well I would be surprised. |

I WILL say it again out lod HERE
samsung is superior function than SE, IT'S REAL
BUT samsung also really really CRAPPY batteries life.
YOU can take only 80 memorable pics during your trip with PIXON, while C905 will get that much better with not much difference.

What info FCC has and when it is available to the public is two different things. For the public the SAR value is usually available after the release at SEs site. You can of course dig around in FCC's archive if you want, but that is a different story.

Too bad no one buys a phone based on battery life, se wud be laughing
......
Anyway what about the flash on the W995 is it any good, hopefully its better than the one on the c902 where everyone looks really white, because it is a white flash

yeah!! a lot people here buy their new phone based on specsheet, not from real performance what phone produce.
It's quite bad imo because you will get them into charger almost everyday.
while my  take almost 3 or better than that.
...........................................
same PhotoFlash like C902 my mate quite good but still can't compare with xenon flash.
also working as torch very bright light really love this, because of W995 didn't have any lens cover but C905 have it.

A phone if accepted by the FCC or such would need to go to stores as well so they can know such things. It should have been already leaked by now but yeah whatever. Anyway wow its really bright? I love how they can make the LED work as a super bright torch but when it comes to taking pictures its slightly less bright. I bet some tweaking can solve that, no? |

Sure, but that only requires a certficate from FCC stating the product is safe for the public (no details such as exact SAR values is required). The fact that lot of stores put up products for preorder before the product has even passed FCC should tell you something about what info stores require. 
Nevetheless, still a nice phone.

Sorry if this has already been answered, but by "global launch", do they mean that the W995 and the W995a are being released at the same time? This is a huge deal for us Americans.
Is the W995a going to be available on May 25? |

NOOO it has 4 we cleared that already. Question. Because V4 is on the A200 platform we could technically flash a phone like the W705 with it correct? |
