i agree with all of the above, i upgraded from my T310 to a K700i and with the new firmware its amazing, much better than the other phones you mentioned. I reccomend it without any doubt, you get people complimenting your phone all the time

wow,,thanks for all your feedback guys!!
yeah, i was gonna say i would probably regret it if i went for the other two, rather than the k700i.

but now, i have another dilemma...'is it worth the wait'..?
i just found out the release date of the s700 in australia is later this month, say- around 24th of october...8 days!!

are the two phones much different, besides the design and the camera??
i would also say that the s700 is going to be much more expensive than k700..right now, the k700 is on a $35AU plan each month for 2 years, with included $35 calls each month..!

i probably would go for the cheaper option, but if the s700 is 'totally' better than the k700, i wouldnt mind forking out some extra cash to get a better phone..

thanks for all of your replies,
rCheng *^^*

(extra question: the s700 has a opening action that is manually operated..but how come on the japanese version s07i0 (or smthing) there is like an auto-mechanism??...it kinda suXx to have to fumble around with the bulky s700 when you want to answer a call >_

well the S700 is basically the same, except it has 128mb expandable memory slot. larger screen much better cam. In essence its the same phone. But the little extra features for sum reson mean it sell at double the price of the K700! IMO its not worth it.

i dont think its got a automated opening mechanism but i know it opens both ways

hey @50cent...the s700 doesnt close 'logically'

i read some where that it closes in one direction...like on some offical review thing.... therefore making the phone eXtremely clusmy, bcos you have to do some weird stuFF to answer a call..lol

here we go=

Quote: [S700's opening mechanism is similar to the one that Motorola's v70 and v80 have. Two halves are rotating one over another, denuding a keyboard. unlike Motorola v80, the phone has no auto-open mechanism, so, one should open it manually with an effort. The hard part here is that the mechanism is quite taut and can't be opened using one hand. This is caused by phone's dimensions, to open it with one hand one should have a big enough palm. Another hard part is a logical one. The opening performs from up to down (i.e. a joint is placed in a lower point, where a navigational key is), the device can be opened either to the left or to the right – there is no difference except for a closing which must be performed in the same direction (there is no 360 degree rotation). So, here the hard part comes up: after you open the phone it gets turned 180 degrees, i.e. the screen and the keypad will be in the wrong positions and you must turn the phone again which causes an inconvenience as an explanation of this inconvinence.]

@rcheng - They say that the K700/i is the miniature of the S700? The S700 has a 1.3 MP camera - much better! Now, if you just got the money to spare and will not be eventually be annoyed with the S700's 'swivel' . . . then go ahead mate and get the S700!

rCheng I had k700 and lost it so got a s700 with insurance money, the s700 does not need to be opened for nearly all functions (except text entry mainly). It has a far better camera than k700 compare on the k700/s700 picture threads, as for opening it is not as awkward as it seems, you get used to it. Imo though I would not have got it if insurance did not pay for it.
