nice photos!
Whats reception like on this phone? I have a t650i and the steel on that reduces reception considerably.
Has anyone got any good prices sim free or on pre-pay for the uk?
So far ive seen £199 on orange when you use a voucher code or £229 when you buy £10 credit on O2 and Carphone warehouse.
I'd like to use mine on 3uk

Yeah it looks good, trying to resist getting one until the prices have fallen a little further, then I'll have to decide what colour? It was black or silver ruled out the mocha variant but having seen it in the flesh I like it too, decisions, decisions! |

I quote from the mobiset.ru review:
"Of course, the aluminium hasn’t been utilized everywhere, and the antenna in the bottom part of the casing obviously proves the plastic frame."
Hence, reception shouldn't have the same issues as with the T650i. |

phone owners, pls do describe how the small led on the side of the phone works, ie. does it flash intermittently/ when a call comes in/ batt low (red color?) ?

This LED has no real fonction. It just flashes during a few minutes when you connect your phone to the charger, the battery must be very discharged |

The reception is lower than on the K850i but still good. |

here is the red led, sorry for the bad quality of the picture. The led just stayed 2 minutes before turning off.

Yes it's quite the same. Personnally, I find the sound better on the W890i but it depends on the headphones you use.

I have a W890i now. Much prefer it over the T650i.
Reception seems the same as my T650i actually. The phone feels much faster to use though and the slightly bigger screen feels quite a lot bigger!
Great phone, i only miss the led torch!
I was also able to update the firmware OTA on 3UK.
For anyone interested, you can get it on 3UK pay+go for £229
The branding is not that bad, only the icons on the standard themes but you can live with it. the rest is quite usefull.
Has anyone used the locations thing? doesnt work with a bluetooth GPS!

I tried with a HGE-100 and it worked perfectly. I will try a BT GPS next week end. I hope it works.
Anyway, Google maps works without GPS with the network positioning system. |

Is it possible to change the SMS tone to any MP3 file that I load up? |
