    "MUST READ, if U R undecided!"

    by SDNY on June 15, 2005

    Pros: 2MP camera, 262K display, functionality,

    Cons: No 3rd party accessories avail yet. Connection interface

    Summary: 8.5 out of 10 for several reasons but still outstanding. Got the phone for $350 US for a one Yr contract renewal. Phone is very clean, easy to get familiar and very functional. Earphone has to share with the charger input because of the new hish speed supposed to be connection interface(unacceptable, should have thought of installing at least a separate 3.5 jack), got to use one or the other. Screen is very bright, clean and clear. You can use animated gif as background(Very cool). MP3 ringtones(loud enough also). Everybody knows 2MP but it also includes a flash and can be use as a flashlight or does an SOS signal also. Excellent java games but a chess and card game would be nice. To keep the screen on excellent condition or scratch free, I used a PSP(playstation portable) protective filter and cut an exact screen size(just cut below the headset so you could still here the sound). If you like going to the GYM you can buy one of the IPOD mini Action Jacket armband(its almost perfect fit and has an access port for the earphone, you just need to modify/cut the circle section into kinda square to match with the phone). Software installation to the computer needs to be installed and uninstalled a few times to get it working, sometimes its a little moody. Syncs well with MS Outlook but not exactly perfect. I had a P900 SE for more than a year before getting this. Bluetooth works perfect w/ other devices. One last WARNING, somehow it has a weaker signal and I had some drop calls which I never had problem w/ my previous phone.

    If you want a mobile phone for making and receiving cvalls then this is definitely not for you unless you are prepared to make and receive all your calls using a headset. Why? Because the inbuilt earpiece and speakerphone are absolute crap as well as the antenna. Just Google K75oi low volume and you will literally come across 1,000's of users who found that as a phone this just doesn't cut it.

    Whenever we make calls we have to strain to hear and that's INSIDE our home when it's all quiet. Imagine outside or in your car where there's a lot of noise!!! Many have complained that in their car they have to use theor headsets to be able to hear. You can get excellent sound quality if you use headsets but who wants to make every call using headsets?? As an entertainment centre I'd give it a 10 but as a phone I'd give it a minus 10 because it doesn't even allow you to make decent calls. The call quality just doesn't allow you to enjoy your calls at all. Strongly discourage people from buying if you want it as a phone but if you are after an entertainment centre then it's the best there is.
