I hated my Satio, I could pretend I don't bother the fatness of it but after 3 months I couldn't...sorry!
I love my Aino way more than my ex-Satio

Satio is a big failure if you bought it brand new when it came out, the price keeps dropping, it wasn't long ago it was £500 now £350. Thankfully i bought mine second hand (brand new conditon) but even that has dropped in price.

£75 is maybe worth it.

As said above it cost about £500 new. It lost about £10 per in value.

Now you can pick one up for £150 second hand easily. Ok you have fans of it on here it's expected but look around the UK...spot the satios because certainly I've seen none near me. I seen a few more C905's at the time..

basically my auntie brought the phone for £150 on contract and she let me buy it off her for £75 (which i think was a bargain), this phone is very good once you hack it but otherwise there are only a few apps available and also i will probably like it even more when the new software update comes out for it.
within a 1-2 weeks maybe less

I have a Satio which was always hanging up on messages and other apps., wouldnt connect to internet etc. Went to the SE site and followed the instructions to upgrade the operating system. Takes about 15 mins but now it is all working perfectly and at top speed. Was informed by my provider - 3 - that there have been a lot of complaints about Satio and always resolved by updating software

Try updating, it is free and well guided through by the SE site [addsig]

Piece of crap Satio has a horrible resale value, I bought mine a couple of weeks after it came out, at that time I got a great deal 400 pounds. It's an ok phone right now but it is continuously inferior when compared to my friends' iphone 3gs.

All the 3gs games are more fun and high quality, all of the apps are more efficient, practical and useful. Only thing the Satio has is its 12mp camera, the recording is pretty bad because the Iphone records higher quality audio while the Satio records higher quality video.

I'm going to say the Satio is not worth the high price that I paid for it. And anybody that is going to tell me to get rid of it, save your tongue, its a love/hate relationship between the Satio and I.

lolol my relationship with satio is love/hate too... but i will still keep it until there is some touch screen phone with an equal camara, xenon flash, and its cool looks Plus, if there wasnt the terrible battery life of only 1day, with a proper firmware update from SE i think i will keep it as my 2nd phone till it dies

I think new units are better than first pieces,based on some posts.
Mine is 10W03 and are working well and stably on R1CA037.
No freezes or sudden crashes since first day,battery keep 2 days easily(medium/heavy use),GPS works like a charm with Ndrive,camera is excelent,video recording too,the native player sucks but powermp3 makes me forgot it(LCG jukebox too),games runs flawlessly(Lets Golf HD,Ferrari GT HD,some emulators etc),apps are ok(i have more than 30 installed and working well)...
I haven't problems with my Satio and can't agree with generalization... If you have problems with your Satio,i just can say:
-Sorry and better luck on your next device.


Cheers!

Yeah same, the Satio runs 100% smooth for me, but the battery life is terrible. I would love a X10 but no exeon flash puts me of too much, once you go exeon you never go back .
