Just a while ago, I would not even have considered the C902 as I've read about its many problems. The one I've got in my store keeps hanging and a friend of mine has sent hers to the service centre a few times already, without solving the problems. But, it's come to this because my telco has a very limited range of phones available within a reasonable price range.



I'd just like to know if there are persistent problems with the C902 and if they're still present in the latest firmware as well as the Bond edition C902. If that's the case, would I be better off getting the T700 instead?



If neither of these are ideal, should I spend a bit more to get the Nokia E66 instead?



Thanks for any advice and recommendations.

I haven't heard of such problems with the C902. Although, I must say that the 3 phones you're considering are targeted at entirely different segments. The T700 beats the C902 and E66 in sexiness while the E66 is a business workhorse. If I were you, I'd get the T700.

Yup, indeed the 3 phones I've got in mind are very different. My ideal choice would be the W902, but that's a little too pricey. So the next closest choice would be the C902, but I'm worried about the bugs I've been reading about.

The T700 is really slim and has the basic features I've come to expect of my SE phones. I can get it for free on contract.

The E66 is quite a different phone from the above and I'm not quite sure what to expect from it. But the specs look pretty good on paper, so I'm willing to give it a shot.

I'd really prefer to get the C902, but I just need to know if I'm gonna be getting a really buggy phone as my last 2 SE phones (K770/Z770) were really disappointing and not what I've come to expect from SE.

the c902 is fine with the latest firmware (going by a mates one)

ive got old firmware on my newly bought 007 c902 and yes, its a little sluggish sometimes, but not buggy.

just trying to update my firmware..... if i can get the darn flash drivers to install on my pc that is

Thanks for the feedback so far, I really appreciate it. Any opinions on the T700 then? Any bugs, problems, etc? Thanks!

Thanks for the assurance, the pictures look good on my phone, I'll go take a look at them on my computer when I get home.

Does the T700 support flash menus? Does it have any by default? How's the audio quality and battery life like? Cos I'd like to use it as my music player if possible. Would I be able to use the W980 acoustics on it if I wanted to? Thanks!

@TeknoBoi90, thanks for the information. I'll be getting one of them later, I'm leaning towards getting the T700.
