I found out in malaysia that SE mobile phones still command the highest prices, W810 almost stay the same price level as it did 1 year ago, K750 still at the same price 9 months ago and second hand mobile phones of all model are still in demand. Is the pattern same in other countries and why?when compared to nokia, motorola and samsung is clearly shown that SE troops out winner?

jafribah, I don't know how is it in your country but in my, Nokia has highest price between vendors. For exemple: from February till May the price on N73 become lower only on 10$
Sorry for my bad English.

@786KBR: Dunno where you get your info from but SE is not known for price drops. Motorola devaluates quicker than a junk bond.

Nokia s60 models seem to be about the highest priced mobiles, excluding crazy stuff like Vertu, and also hold their price longer, IMHO.

brix is right...try to look at nokia...find a phone then compare its price to its price next month not like SE they make few phones so it dont depreciates a lot not like nokia [addsig]

Totally agree, in my opinion Sony and Samsung phones do not hold prices very well.

no. it depends.
in singapore an malaysia, SE is favourite handset.

while in indonesia for example, Nokia is the favourite among the people.
hence, in singapore, SE handset more expensive than indonesia.
but Nokia handset more expensive if it were bought in indonesia.


so what i do, buy SE in indonesia, or buy nokia in singapore.
least favourite handset in certain country would be cheaper...
