I disagree that premium headsets out of the box is all they have going. Try plugging HPM-77 out of a W902 box into a 'DSP' equipped, multimedia powerhouse N96 and compare. You'll then have the epiphany of how little you know.
Back on topic, SE's designs have tickled my fancy since the Ericsson days. Have always been comfortable using them & felt unique among the sea of Nokia users. I come from a design background & I've always understood the balance, proportion, geometry etc that they execute in their phones. Their UI looks way better than Nokia too like how Vista compares to Win98. Of course this is just my homegrown (and absolutely biased) opinion (I mean, look at my signature). They just have the X-factor over me that only Samsung comes close to. I do hate them for screwing with my loyalty but I'm hoping Idou will set things straight again

I can only judge on the nokia n82 which i owned for a couple of moths.
Nokia has a avantage hardware wise: speed, camera, gps, new hardware (tv tuner, fm transmitter, motion sensor etc)
But i switched back to a c702 because of te awful software on the nokia.
And not to forget: back in the days SE was THE innovator; first to introduce colour screen, bluetooth, touch screen, mms, video playback etc.

It is naive and subjective, but I for one won't bother with any visible Nokia on the moment. So I won't try to convince you to buy an SE, because obviously you think they suck. Vice versa mate.
For a bit of afterthought: the act of thinking which phone to choose is already a subjective matter. There are people, for instance, who won't care what Xvid and DivX means thus they won't need an INNOV8. While it is obvious that INNOV8 is like God compared to SE's outings. Like someone else said, it's the X-factor or whatever.

Or an epiphany of how little YOU know. Get an unbiased pair of headphones and try out N95 or N81 or N91 or N85 with any SE you want. i dont know why people think pumping bass suddenly translates into good sound quality,

do you inhabit mars or uranus?
in reality, you'll find that SE are responsible for none of them. SE has never invented anything
first colour screen - siemens
first bluetooth - ericsson (not SE)
first touch screen - LG
first phone with mms - ericsson
first phone with video playback - ? (the world first video streaming phone was by samsung in 2000, before the existance of SE)
you haven't got a clue

I thought this was a thread about why we buy an SE over other brands. Not, a Bash-SE thread. Some guys have no work to do, but prefer to spam every thread that comes their way.
I have been using SE for the past 5 years. I tried a Nokia in the meantime. The phone was slow, the sound quality was pathetic and the Ui was a mess. Samsung and LG dont even come into the picture. A mid end samsung takes ages to open a file, and while multitasking, i try taking a nap before the application switches. aka Samsung 270 beat.
And you have no other work to do other than bash nokia. Pretty much all points you listed are the same crap every one writes about samsung and nokia and people who have NEVER owned them. I've owned samsungs, nokias and SEs, trust me, i know more than you. You base your opinion off of a phone you might have had ages ago.
sound quality pathetic, ui was a mess blah blah WTH ever!

Yea right Mr. Know-it-all. You are the only one who has used many phones and you have to be right in your assumptions. I live in
India, where all the phones get released pretty fast, and I have die hard Nokia friends who pick them up pretty fast too. Samsung and Lg are a far cry here. Hardly see anyone with a high end samsung. I dont need to justify myself to u anyway.

Are you serious? LG was maybe the first with the touchscreen phones we have nowadays (Prada), but SE was defenitly earlier. Think P800 and the likes

you haven't got a clue
there was a touch screen device before the

R380 ?
and your right, i should have written (Sony)Ericsson, which i actualy ment because SE evolved from
oh and according to
wikipedia mms is introduced with the release of the t68i, which then got bacported to the

t68
and by invention i should have written: "put on the main market by", to bypass the siemens s25 (colour screen) and the samsung (video) you are talking about. this in favor of the t68 and the p800.
