I NEED a new phone na talaga. My 3-1/2 yo phone is showing signs of aging - unrecognized callers/texters pero nasa phonebook naman, address book capacity exceeded na, it hangs at times, and the list goes on. It needs to retire soon!
Considering I am a techie person (a mobile developer at that), I am looking for a device that can satisfy my communication, entertainment and research & development needs. I want a phone I can program with (Java is required, Symbian is a plus), a nice camera and a music player, and something that has good connectivity (Bluetooth and 3G required, WiFi is a plus). And the following are the phones that I consider:
Sony Ericsson K850i
I like the camera and the candy bar design. For me, my next phone needs to have a good camera. And this one is even considered a Cybershot! Music player is a plus. And it has one too! However, it's internal memory is only 40MB, just like my current SE phone. It can be expanded with a memory stick, though.
Features: 5MP, 3G, Java MIDP2.0, Bluetooth, 40MB internal, Memory Stick Micro (M2)/microSD, proprietary OS.
(P17950)
Sony Ericsson W910i
This model is included in the list mainly because of the color! I want my next phone to be red sana! Hehehe... If only K850i has red, I'll go for it na! =P
Features: 2MP, 3G, Java MIDP2.0, Bluetooth, Walkman, 40MB internal, Memory Stick Micro (M2), Proprietary OS
(P15150)
Sony Ericsson W960i
Need I say more? See related entry. =P
Features: 3MP, 3G, Java MIDP2.0, WiFi, Bluetooth, Walkman, Organizer, 8GB, Symbian OS, Black only
(P24900)
I used to be anti-Nokia, but things change! And I am seriously considering owning one. Here are my choices:
Nokia N82
Nice features and candy bar design but i don't like the color. Nagsasawa na ata ako sa "safe" color. =P
Features: 5MP, 3G, Java MIDP2.0, WiFi, Bluetooth, GPS, PTT, MicroSD(2GB included), Symbian OS
(P21950)
Nokia N81
Nice color: black with blue - medyo manly lang konti but I like the rounded-edge design, it makes it less stiff. Not bad for a slide phone, and 17.75K (mall price pa yan) for an 8GB phone? Not bad.
Features: 2MP, 3G, Java MIDP2.0, WiFi, Bluetooth, slide design, MicroSD(2G included), PTT, Symbian OS.
(P15350 for 2GB, P17750 for 8GB)
Nokia N95
An all-in-one device! For me, it's the Nokia equivalent of W960i, plus plus more!
Features: 5MP, 3G, Java MIDP2.0, WiFi, Bluetooth, slide design, GPS, PTT, Symbian OS.
(P19950 for 4GB, P25300 for 8GB )
Notice that the 6 phones are SE-Nokia equivalent phones. =D Comparing them, I prefer K850i over N82, N81 over W910i and N95 over W960i.
Trimming down the choices, I have the following in my order of preference:
N95 - 25300, Symbian, 8GB, slide, WiFi/Bluetooth, 5MP camera
N81 - 17750, Symbian, 8GB, slide, WiFi/Bluetooth, 2MP camera
K850i - 17950, Proprietary, 40MB internal/Memory Stick, candy bar, Bluetooth, 5MP camera
So pag nagkapera ako, alam ko na kung ano ang hahanapin ko for myself. :) As for now, have to think again (nakakapagod na rin...) how to get through this month... so konting tiis pa.. :(

Sony Ericsson! I heard okay na okay ang firmware ng SE mobile phones. ;-P Hahaha, biased.
My current phone is a Sony Ericsson.. :D At kelangan nang dasalan para mag-charge! :P Pero sobrang tibay naman kahit bouncing-phone na sya! Hehehe..
I'm thinking of giving Nokia a try. ;)
hi mam. i own a Nokia N80 and it's so slow! the only reason why im loving it is because it has 3G, which you can have from other phones. N95 is quite sluggish too, and i won't be able to abuse the maps feature that defines the product. if performance is important to you then better stick with sony ericsson. ayun lang. :)
heto po mam phone reviews for reference: http://www.gsmarena.com/
2 SE, 0 Nokia. Hehehe..
Siguro kasi nagsasawa na lang ako sa SE kaya ganon.. I have a friend with an N80 too, what I don't like about it is its size. Sakop buong kamay ko, and have to use my two hands pa. Hahaha. =P Siguro ganon din ang N81.
As for N95, a co-faculty naman is satisfied with its black (8GB) version. That's why I am considering it rin. And since Symbian kasi yon, mas marami ako pwede gawin, unlike the proprietary OS of K850i.. at kung W960i (Symbian) naman di ko sure if okay ang ibang features. I haven't got a chance to hold one pa kasi. hehe..
Thanks for the input! ;-)
