Let's just wait and see what 2009 will be like for all of the manufacturers. On a side note, I think this thread is going nowhere...

The most voted phones are P990 and K850.
So those Sony Ericsson phones should be on the Hall of Shame!!

Hmmm...lets see now:

K850 - Must I say why?

W910 - High end phone? Made from cheap plastic, SE havnt even bothered to sort out the constant restarts, resets. A shit 2 megapixel camera without autofocus and a flash when all other high end phones had a 5 megapixel camera, with af and a flash, even if it was an led. But wait, we can't slag the camera because its a music phone. Yes a music phone with an extremely slow 'media manager' and the speaker? Well the one on the K850 was better. And a rival of the phone, the U600 has a much better speaker, shocking. Ohh and the sliver trim round the edge isn't very...durable to pockets as it rubs off after a month.

C902 - Pointless 'camera shortcuts' that sacrifice 0.2" of the screen. Impossible to get the back cover off. The pull out camera thing collects dust better than a duster. The keypad is too stiff. Xenon flash? It was a 'flagship Cyber-shot...briefly.

T303, W395, F305, W302, S302, and all other low end handsets of '08 - Will someone please tell me the point of these phones? The T303? Why even bother making it? If people want a 'cheap' phone then they will buy a once mid/high end phone thats come down in price to around Ģ50, not a low end SE that debuts at Ģ80, and is shit.

The above is pretty much SONY (not )'s fault.

ended after k750/w800. These were the climax and closure of the old and good that gave us t610, k700, P800, S700, K750 and etc. Itīs been downhill ever since, itīs like the company changed after that. Maybe all phones after this period should be in the hall of shame simply because they do not compare to what used to make and its prior high standards for quality.

Why, A2 is great IMO. It wasn't too stable in the first couple of phones, but still it is the best feature-phone os. Love my K660 and if it would've got some more functions and a bigger screen, i'd chose it above my G900 and X1 anytime.

W580 belongs to the hall of shame. The keypad issues did harm se's image awfully.

Allso F305 and the likes. Horrible UI and no point in them at all.

W800? Are you serious? Thats the very phone that got me and im sure many other users into SE, that is a phone that deserves to be in the hall of fame, but anyway each to their own.

You're talking about the phone that revolutionized both music and image (with K750) oriented phones. It sold by the millions with relatively negligible complaints. Can't you really name any other nominee?

With out a doubt the P990i belongs there. Bought it at nearly full price for about $700 and couldn't get nowhere near $400 soon afterwards. Had only phones in my cellular life up to then including p900 and P910a and T637.

The worse part is that did not care about rectifying the silly thing nor costumer care.
Since then I have left permanently.
