I think so.
Its K750i Nokia rival, the new 6230i, comes only with a 1.3 megapixel camera, a small screen and no flash. It does come with extras but the K750 has beaten it by far. (lets only hope the price tag isnt S700 style!)
The W800 is the first of its kind, beautiful sporty look with a solid music system that is designed as an mp3 player, not an 'add on' to a phone. Then there is the K600. A K700i, but with two cameras. Excellent. Then there's the entry level camera phone the K300 with its clean looks and excellent array of features. The J300 is designed for those wanting a touch of funkyness and contemporary/retro looks.
I think  are fantastic. Their phones not only have amazing features, but also the looks and themes of the phones are unique. Nokias have the same bland colouring and features. Motorolas and samsungs are quite nice, but in the same way are either all sliding/clamshell and all silver. The phones have presented have impressed me so much.
Before March 1st i was moaning about , and now i see them as an entirely differnet company. Truly innovative.
But if their damned pricing is sky high, you can be sure to see me moaning once more!

The only problem that :se have is that they announce all these nice new phones with amazing specs that other manufacturers cant get near whehn they are announced, but by the time that :se have actually got them to the market the competition has caught up.

and when se do arrive often there are to many simple bugs that should have been sorted out before release ie phonebook bug k700
these simple bugs show a lack of testing imo.
i can accept issues with new additions/ technologys within the phone. but the basics that have been in phones since day one i find hard to accept
but apart from that yes they do seem to be trying to push mobile technology further than other manf do |

SE lacks clamshells.
and nokia is not the main rival. samsung is.
people realize more and more that SE is better then nokia.
but some people think that samsung is the best, while they are terrible. there D500 can't make up for all those other ones, and imo the D500 is overpriced for what you get, knowing that the phone only cost 122euro to build+ship. sharing this info i'll probably receive a nice mail from samsung, but i don't care. is it so hard to give a good value for money?

umm sorry but why is it small?
i mean imho k700's screen is very small and 6230i's screen is about the same size but square, and if you are talking about resolution then nokia wins with 208*208, imho 6230's screen is one of the best i saw in small phones.... |

a good screen doesn't make up a hole phone.
i agree that nokia is good, 2nd best in my eyes, but still years behind SE. its true that nokia desirves so good words, but only when they are compaired to other brands.

In a recent survey conducted by a tech magazine in india, SE has in a very short time gained respect as a company in India and people have begun to look further than Nokias.

Can't stand Nokias. Horrible phones IMO with cheap covers, poors screans and old UI. They seems to be dying down around here despite being quite popular at one point but I used to know loads of people with Nokias but now I know only a couple. Can't say I know loads with SE's though but the market seems to be widening here but I have noticed a sudden rise in Motorolas. Can't understand why because IMO, they're absolutely terrible and some of the worst phones on the market.
The only reason I went with SE was because I liked the UI ,which is similar to my old Panasonic, and never hear any bad things about them. I love my K700 now and I have a feeling I'll be with SE for quite a while now. |

Most of their phones? None of the SE phones launched in India has EDGE. :-[ That may be because Europe still is the primary market for SE where EDGE is nonexistent!
