Been waiting for a while for my B&O Serenata to arrrive off the first batch into the UK, and it's finally arrived, and i LOVE it!

I know (before anyone says it), that there are more featured phones, and better this and better that, BUT, I like things that are different and it certainly has some unique features.

I own the B&O Serene, and although its a fairly basic (in todays terms), it still garnishes looks and people seems to love it.

Some pictures of the new Serenata









The sound quality from the built in loud speaker is AWESOME, really.

I'll post some more thoughs when I have had a play

Hoping to pick one of these up in the next few weeks,

Is yours a sim free version? or did you get it on vodafone? as i was told by samsung that vodafone had it exclusively in the uk? i was hoping for a sim free on myself.

i does look rather lovely.

opps just noticed you had it on o2.

Yeah I bough SIM free, it's only available through B&O shops in the UK, no networks are getting them. I heard the rumour that Voda were to get it as well, but it appears to be rubbish.

Hi floatlite

Nice one it is indeed a great looking devcie and one you are unlikely to bump int someone else with plus of course sonically i doubt it can be beaten by anything other than maybe a dedicated Music player and even then I'm not sure.

PS If you see dodgy looking character with an Albino Dobermann it's me not Fatreg LOL.

I have to say the musical performance is AWESOME. The loudspeaker pisses all over all other phones I've used and bests my Bose speakers with iPod.

Would be nice to have a listen to one of these at some point...only ancient N91(really), and similar i450(if you can find one) come close in sound quality, apparently......

F310 is supposed to be the best in SQ now, bar none!

@>500

When then it appears you have heard wrong as B & O are world renowned for both thier quality and high prices. Or maybe you believe a Walkman phone is much better then ?

Of course it is. Last time I checked, mp3 players couldn't make phone calls, write SMS'es, take photos or anything else even a regular SE phone can do.
