Bookmark topic
I'm glad someone else has got this problem....even when i'm sat at home i can hardly hear the person at the other end - I can only hear people when using handsfree or speaker....which get's annoying - "errr...can you hang on while i turn my speaker on...."
very annoying and the thing that is making me regret getting the 700 and telling my friends not to get it....

With all due respect.... I have never had a problem with the volume of the speaker....without using the loudspeaker... May I suggest.... that on some occasions it may need you to check your hearing?

yeah i never experienced this sort of thing
Once i did however, not exactly the problem u guys had but it happened like this - i was standing at one place and talkin to my friend. Reception was good. Then i had to move and suddenly volume became low !!! I moved back to the original place and volume was back up ! So i guess its the signal variation in diff locations. Also you guys might wanna try adjusting the volume when talking.

i have to say, that the volume of k700i is WORSE than for example t68i - same network, same place.
sad but TRUE.

I've had K700i for two weeks now... I am a perfectionist and my experience told me that you just cannot search for a perfect phone-you just have to search for a phone that will have the least downsides (objectivly and of course, SUBJECTIVLY)! Things that bodher me, you maybe won't even notice, and vice-versa...so, we are all different
and we all search for different things, but....back to the K700I: I am so impressed with this phone, I am starting to fear that something very bad will happen to it!!!

You know how things in life are-you shouldn't have extreme emotions about anyone and anything-because, if you do, usually you end up hurted!

But, with K700i I just can't
resist it....belive me, each time I look at its bright clear screen, big "WOW" is heared in my head! And of course, all of that is not from the fact that it is perfect, but because it has so much great things, a lot of good things and very few cons, compared to other phones! I feared that its vibration is too weak (vib. is really of great importance
to me), but even if it seems that it's weaker than other phones (when tested in your hand), you just CAN feel it better than with the others -I don't know what's the SE's formula for this, but it's obviously working! I have "clean", non-branded K700, and in my opignion, using of a branded one could lead you to regretion, but thank God, there is
a relatively easy and cheap solution for that now! And believe me, I've been comparing, I've been trying and testing lots of phones before I bought a new phone...and I am not a "company lover" - except for
Nokia, I had a phone from almost every company out there (and I think the sound in loud places is still loud enough with K700, and better or the same compared to other models I owned)....and today, when smartphones are still too big for the way I see and need and use mobile phones, K700i was really the only choice! Note that in my case prise of a S700 WAS an object, and if that wasn't a case, I'd probably go for S700.
Answer to your question: NO, I've not regreted it, not even for one microsecond!

I am very pleased with my K700. The K700 may not have the best screen available, or the best camera, or memory expansion, but it does have a lot of very good features that combine to make the K700 an excellent choice. I use my K700 quite a bit, along with my S700.

I have found the following problems with the K700i.. 1)The ring sound can be quite low in loud(ish) place, so u have to use sharp sounding tones. 2)The rubber sealing at the bottom of the phone,the one that covers the terminals, gets loose and doesnt fit flush after some time. 3)The 'Online' sticker on the side comes off. I pamper my k700i so much and always carry it in its case and these things still happen, what if i was rough with it! Otherwise, its a great phone!

I regret buying the K700i because:
1. People look at me when my mp3 of Alias theme starts playing when somebody calls me.
2. My nephews/neices jumps at me wanting to be the first to borrow the phone for the 50 different games I have in it.
3. I'm kind of addicted to taking candid photos/videos of friends and relatives and things that look wierd/unique anytime, anywhere when I feel like it.
4. I'm forced to wake-up early every morning for work because my alarm never fails and the "coo-coo" sound is so annoyingly effective.
5. I've become irritable when somebody calls me for dinner while I'm in the middle of a good chess game while listening to mp4s in my K700i.
etc, etc, etc.
