@masseur

My Cell phone co. has the S700a available in the next week.

I am not in a rush as I have a T616 also known as the T610 in your part of the world. Great phone, very dependable and the best phone I have owned in years.

I will trust your advise between the S700a and V800 ( not available in the U.S. yet). You have had the chance to use the V800 and the S700 is similar to the K700. Please make a recommendation as if you were to choose from these two. Or would you recommend the K700 over both?

Cracking review Massuer

Just been reading it and feel tempted

Played with the S700i, fiddled with the P910i, next could be the V800 if the price is right

v800 is 900/1800/1900.
the other two fones you reference as on sale in usa are either 800 or 850, and 1800/1900.
what is the most common frequency used non-roaming on yr home network?
can you even use the v800 in yr market if it doesnt access an 800 frequency?
i myself would like to know the answer to this since i want to buy such a fone for use in the usa, where most of the local band is in the 800 range.

Howdy, thanks to all y'all for your posts and particularly to masseur for the great review.

I'm agonising over whether to stick with the K700i I've just bought or go with a V800 or V3 RAZR. I find the K700i uncomfortable on the ear and awkward to text with. I'm not sure the V800 is as comfy to use as a Nokia, but it seems better than the K700i. The V3 is an all-round babe, with a nice curved earpiece, but I'm not sure that slinky keypad is very nice to text with - I haven't gotten my hands on a real live V3 yet. And the V3 is rather light on storage and features. I've also read that the V3 is easily broken and that the keypad leaves a mark on the screen.

As a Mac user, I've also got major syncing woes... which probably wouldn't interest you! ( See my related post at http://www.esato.com/board/viewtopic.php?topic=52690&start=480 )

I would be very grateful for some feedback on my dilemma.

So, why doesn't someone write about the important things like standby- and talking-time, 3G to 2G handover, signal-quality aso.?


I'm thinking the same thing. What's the reception and battery life like? Also, is it easy to SMS with or are buttons hard to use? I'm concerned because the buttons on the V800 appear flat but my 5110's buttons extrude from the surface of the phone.

From what I've read the V800 seems to be an awesome phone. Btw nice review masseur.
