~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Helping hand: dude_se,Big thnkx to IRFCA_WDG-3A for the siemen and LG update

~~::Motorola::~~

::Pros::
-Unique designs (Slim) E.g V3i

::Cons::
-Easy break, E.g (buttons and screens impact)
-Menu not user friendly (personal opinion)
-Laggy

Rate: 2/5

~~::Nokia::~~

::Pros::
-Many smart models and design for people different taste to choose from
-Unique designs
-Some models good camera's can match
"Nokia is the king of the UI in terms of ease of use. they can give other manufacturers a run for their money because Nokia HAS money. Nokia is king because it gives proper attention to MARKETING. people buy nokias not necessarily because they're good, but because they seem good; they seem to fit your every need and want." as quoted by shadoweaver

::Cons::
-Sadly on most phone theme's are all the same, people get bored of the same menu all the time, only difference between later models are slitly different theme and some other icon or options added on.
-Small camera screen (im talkin about models like 6230 etc) no very good quliaty

Rate:4/5

~~::Sony Ericsson::~~

::Pros::
-I own many But only the average models like W800i, W550i ,T610 T310
havnt used the higher ones like P900 etc.
so not much comment on them can be giving out
-Many themes to choose and download from especaily the unbranded W550i theme, the menu is good looking, but lags
-Many desgin, Love the Swevil design on the W550i and W900i but nokia had to copy
-User friendly
-Sharp camera and quilaty pictures and videos (depending on model)

::Cons::
-Nothing haha:lol: nah!
-The worse about i have to say is the firmware, each firmware brings new problem and bugs. worse software crashes encounter "The white screen of death!"
-"Joystick problem to most phones from K series to W. Joystick when used too much it fails to work."-dr_thug

Rate: 5/5

~~::3G phones::~~

::Pros::
-3G have bought us all joys and tears,a new smart way to communicate!
-Many brand mobile join 3 which means more phone to choose from 3.

::Cons::
-I am not sure if this is the case but 3G phones are cheap to buy (excluding W900i ) i think where the quliaty is cheap too.
-Easy break, most cases where there is impact damage on the LCD screen, eg i have a fren which has the LG phone which was impacted damaged at the front LCD and the inside LCD... poor him...
-All 3G phone Big in designs, due to some quote from people that like big phone is "its good so i know that my phone excites in my pocket!"

Rate 3/5

~~::Siemen::~~
(Big thnkx to IRFCA_WDG-3A for this update)

::Pros::
1. Value for money
2. Great design, (though some designs were not ergonomic)
3. Good network reception
4. Strong build
5. Unique color screens with reflective layers for better visibility in bright sunshine

::Cons::
1. As usual, poor camera
2. Accesories aren't too many and varied
3 - any more? -

Rating: 3/5

~~::LG::~~
(Big thnkx to IRFCA_WDG-3A for this update)
::Pros::
1. Cheap, Value for money
2. Some designs are innovative (M4410-the car phone, the Chocolate, another upcoming i-pod clone and the P7200 etc)
3. Construction-wise pretty okay, well built than most nokias
4. Good Screens - comparable to SE and Samsung

::Cons::
1. Poor cameras
2. Low on features, except 'some' models
3. Suffers from the "Cheap Image Syndrome" (Imagine someone passing a comment - 'Hey, that's a cheap LG MP3 phone, right?')

Rating: 3/5


~~::Samusung::~~

::Pros::
-Love the VGA camera's
-Bluetooth on eg. E710 can browse other peoples files like photos and stuff, like actually view them and go through ur phone in their phone lets start hacking haha!
-Samsung Smart slide up design and flip designs
-Samsung has the best looking screen around! before mobiles used 262k TFT screens, Samsung was already a pioneer on it. Event the first colored Samsung mobile used it. -shadoweaver
-Best calm shell design. -shadoweaver


::Con::
-The centre button in the control pad is usally the Internet button so i think most of u peoples would always go on the net instead of opening menu haha! its true try using for awhile then go try a samsung one!
-Not much of a MP3 player
-If u are a person who works and knows how to open phones urll know that samsung inside is crap its stick on with tapes instead of weid in
-Another biggest disadvantage of samsung phones is that they have the battery integrated into their Back panels - so if u get them scratched or disfigured, changing a faceplate won't help. (Samsung faceplates aren't easy to change either) Also, impacts can harm the battery. -IRFCA_WDG-3A

Rate 4/5

~~::Panasonic::~~
::Pros::

::Cons::

Rate :N/A
(if anyone can help in this section it would be great appreciated )

Siemens phones are quite ok, too. well, at least the cx65...

i used to own one and found no problems with it, except the screen quality wasn't too good because I think it used STN. colors looked washed out but the VGA camera took decent pictures. their designs seem to be on the rugged side, too.

Samsung has the best looking screen around! before mobiles used 262k TFT screens, Samsung was already a pioneer on it. Event the first colored Samsung mobile used it. shame that Samsung is bad at marketing and, feature-wise, their phones lack some arguably essential features. Samsung is king of the clamshell phone though...

Nokia is the king of the UI in terms of ease of use. they can give other manufacturers a run for their money because Nokia HAS money. Nokia is king because it gives proper attention to MARKETING. people buy nokias not necessarily because they're good, but because they seem good; they seem to fit your every need and want. i'm not saying nokia is not any good, but it is rarely the reason why their products sell. I used to own nokias as well.

of course, i cannot end this post without a comment about SE:

i think it's the best; that's why i am a member of esato. i am not saying that SE is perfect -- it has its flaws. however, these are flaws i can let pass, if not for the fact that they are overshadowed by great features, then maybe because they are not really great flaws.

yes, SE is my favorite, and i'm proud of it.

i very much agree to the lack of some arguably bit but the market bit i dont agree. i find that samsung market prices are the stablest around you would get a samsung E700 which was SRP over 1K and for the remaing year the price stay that way, and even now as we speak the samsung E700 is still worth about 400 to 600 austalian dollars on street price but on market price its still over 1K because i went into a optus shop and they said they still have to buy the model at that price! untill optus dont need it anymore!
so yea!
btw thnkx for opinion

Hey, No one on LG and not much on siemens?

Here are some of my inputs:
~~~~~~~~ LG ~~~~~~~~~~
Pros:
1. Cheap, Value for money
2. Some designs are innovative (M4410-the car phone, the Chocolate, another upcoming i-pod clone and the P7200 etc)
3. Construction-wise pretty okay, well built than most nokias
4. Good Screens - comparable to SE and Samsung

Cons:
1. Poor cameras
2. Low on features, except 'some' models
3. Suffers from the "Cheap Image Syndrome" (Imagine someone passing a comment - 'Hey, that's a cheap LG MP3 phone, right?')

(My) Rating: 3/5


~~~~~~~~~~ SIEMENS ~~~~~~~~~~

Pros:
1. Value for money
2. Great design, (though some designs were not ergonomic)
3. Good network reception
4. Strong build
5. Unique color screens with reflective layers for better visibility in bright sunshine

Cons:
1. As usual, poor camera
2. Accesories aren't too many and varied
3 - any more? -

(My) Rating: 3/5


Coming shortly - Philips, Benq, Benq-Siemens, and more!




PS: Another biggest disadvantage of samsung phones is that they have teh battery integrated into their Back panels - so if u get them scratched or disfigured, changing a faceplate won't help. (Samsung faceplates aren't easy to change either) Also, impacts can harm the battery.

Sony Ericsson
SE has the most user friendly phones IMO. The menu is great to use! You don't get sick of it. If you do though, just download another theme
Build qulity is a bit bad though (joystick, creaking) and the phones don't look AS nice as some of the others.

Motorolas
Menu is dull and boring. Motorola have the worst menu of the lot. They wreck their high quality screens with an un-intuitive menu.
Best designs and average build quality.

Nokia
Easy to use, but as said, can get a bit boring after a long time. Their symbian phones can be buggy.
Designs are ok.
