K750 JOYSTICK IS GOOD!

MOTO RAZR DON`T HAVE JOYSTICK, ONLY (UP, DOWN, LEFT , RIGHT) BUTTONS.

I have yet to meet anyone who has had a problem with their joystick. I have also heard that the keypad onthe V3 RAZR has a habit of breaking/ not responding after a while. It is also no comparison with the K750i on functions.

No problem with my K750i for that past month (1.5) now matey. What I have observed with the keypads (layout) with that of the Motorola V3 is that it tends to fade (keys) after a long while (wear-and-tear). The number's print tend to 'blemish' itself . . . [addsig]

I guess it depends on how you use it. I used to browse WAP sites using my K750 quite extensively and now I have this creaky feeling when I press the "down" key..

Overall, I feel the phone is quite fragile compared to my old Nokia phones.. I wonder how much it will cost to replace the joystick..

i have now got my k750i and the joystick isnt as bad as people were telling me.

sure it takes a bit of getting used to if you have used keypads in past but hey the k750i is its own reward

It is a big design flaw on part of se. Their phones are otherwise excellent but only if they could have something like nokia or samsung.

Well, my joystick became partially unresponsive 7 weeks ago, so I went to a SE repair center, but they told me they had to send my phone to a bigger repair center because they couldn't repair it (still unresponsive after changing the joystick), but then A MONTH LATER they told me the other center could not repair it. I've been waiting for almost 3 weeks since then for the replacement K750i they promised me, so I'm quite mad at them at the moment! All I have is my old T610, and it's not in good state...

So YES, there are problems with K750i joystick, and I'm still waiting for my new K750i seven weeks later...

I have to say that after 4 phones, my joystick is now starting to play up bigstyle. Have vacuumed it to no avail. Will see how bad it gets before contacting orange for possibly a 5th unit.

Well, that's the end of my forth. Fifth on the way from Orange tomorrow. If i experience any further problems, i'm afraid it's adios sony ericsson. The problem will then be what phone to get that's as feature packed as this buggy unreliable beauty. The new big problem is transfering files to the memory stick. After waiting for up to 8 minutes, the phone now only receives 1 or 2 files instead of the whole album. I do feel this is a firmware bug, but still very annoying. :-l

My joystick had gotten better over the last week or so. Maybe cus I gave it a good hooverin, who knows. As for bugs I havent really found any major ones yet. There are a few little things that annoy me though, but seeing as I cant remember them now they cant be that important.
