Many members asked me why do i use a t630 if i am an /// freak. I use constantly my r520 and sometimes other fone aswell, depending my mood, even 338 if it is. T630 has great keypad and design, reminds me on ///. Its the only se what really impressed me, not any other after the marriage. It symbolise me the present, but the balance is always constant with an /// in my pocket. Se fones, except smarts, are have still /// knowledge inside, features, menus etc. Think i am not alone here with this opinion...

Well to tell you the truth, i think 630 is the ugliest se. The keypad is very much similar to n1100 which is a big turn off. But opinions do differ, right?

To be honest, it was the sony part that got me into it. I had a CMD-Z7 and loved it, and when it died i got a p800

After t6? Huh, good question. Really donnow. Its acceptable now, lets wait for the next models. The sony design is a joke, wouldnt touch or use anything of that brand.

@boba
one good thing about the t630 is t9, because you use full words now!
I know realise your english might not be too good but sometimes it was hard to read your posts with your r520!!

It is strange why so many SE fans prefer Ericsson. I touched upon this topic in another thread, but it seems quite relevant to this discussion. I know that Ericsson did produce more phones than Sony, but this doesn't seem an adequate explanation for the large gap between Sony and Ericsson fan numbers.
Personaly I was never a major Ericsson fan, I did once buy an Ericsson phone, but returned it after a few days. I always thought that the Ericsson designs were intended to appeal to people with absolutely no aesthetic appreciation; the designs seemed somewhat 'basic' and 'primitive' to me, almost awkward at times. My opinion changed with the release of the T68/T68i. I have said it before and I shall say it again, the T68/T68i was and is, in my opinion, the best mobile phone ever produced.
I always liked Sony phones, they always had the 'Japanese look' to them; that is futuristic and desirable. I have always liked gadgets and the Sony phones appealed to me on that level. I liked the jog-dial, I liked their menu system and I liked their features.
Combining Sony and Ericsson I think we have good quality products that continue to deliver innovation and style to customers.

I think what people loved about Ericsson phones were their simple, clean design aesthetic. Volvo and Ikea are other examples of simplistic Swedish design.

I think that's what I disliked about Ericsson!  Ericsson phones do remind me of Ikea actually; I don't want Ikea furniture and I don't want Ikea mobiles either!
