On 25 Apr 19:20 Bhav wrote You have to see the Z780 open, these closed pictures do not do it any justice. It is sleek, modern, super nice, and thin. On 25 Apr 05:16 mcrosser wrote you guys talk without thinking, I can see. These phones look great, a 2MP camera is not the main feature in these phones, but high speed internet access in a nice design. (y) On 24 Apr 16:59 PM wrote Se, keep introducing the same old phones with a different layout and this year will be the start of your ending! Q1 was poor... after these phones you are showing except worse results! Admit it... U SUCK! On 24 Apr 16:42 DT wrote Yawn...couple of new refurbished crap from SE. On 24 Apr 10:11 attacker wrote Thanks, from Belarus! SE as always best!

On 23 Apr 13:28 James wrote Why on EARTH are SE still putting piddly 2Mp cameras in their handsets? And yes, I realise these handsets are focusing on people who want mobile web, but surely being able to take and send high-quality photos goes hand-in-hand with that? The K750i came out, what, 3 years ago now with a 2Mp camera? I know I'd happily pay a bit more for one of these for a decent 5Mp camera with a Xenon flash. Come on SE - get your act together or Nokia et al are going to leave you behind. On 23 Apr 12:23 kelly wrote this year SE fans have seen what they hav'nt seen in history of the company.The aggressiveness at which SE phones are being announced is a welcome idea. It shows that they are prepared to take market by storm.Design + feature is their trade mark, so..., is not a suprise anyway!.Hope to seeing such beauty from the UIQ devices.Thanks SE. |
