I don't like it, i think it's basically a square W890i.

5 years later, screen size hasn`t changed that much at all.

I think the large space above the screen is to reflect the look of the T610i which also has a large space there. Also, the screen size isn't huge because its obviously only a mid-end phone really.
I am a little bit torn over what I think of it. I bet it will look nicer once we see some more pictures. I think the D-pad and surrounding buttons should be black like the T610i.

I agree - although, the compact from factor suits it well - not too sure about the keypad, I would have liked to have seen T650i-esque buttons, not a keypad ripped straight from the W890i!

Is there going to be a CS version of W890i allso? Like with W880i, T650i and K770i? (though i don't see what that phones have to do with each other
)

Very nice. Its easy to see how they have purposely tried to replicate the proportions of the original - hence the large space around the display.
Although they could have easily included a couple of other 'nods' to the original such as as smaller black space on the back and making it a bit 'rounder', the original T was comfortable to hold.
Good effort though. Will there be a red a blue version? Has the codename been posted yet?

I've made up my mind.
There's only 2 things about the phone that remind me of the T610i:
1. The black/silver colour scheme. But its not even done the same as the T610i, so its disappointing. And besides, we have seen the colour scheme on the T280i and T650i now so the revival but not revival thing is nothing new.
2. The large gap between the top of the phone and the top of the screen. Nothing major, and not many will notice it.
So overall, I find this a disappointing revival. The T610i was on top of its game when it came out, so surely a successor should be too. Something like the C905 specs in this but a bit thicker, now that'd work. This though... This is just mid-end generic-ness. Then there's the fact that its really a debranded W890i in a different shell - That shows that
haven't made much of an effort to make this special. The T610i was a special phone. An
classic, and it deserves better.

I don't like the design, its too square. I wish there was a bit more effort put into this phone. The T650 is nice so why not just give that an update with better buttons.
seems to take around 6 months to release a phone after its announcement therefore, if there are to be more phones released this year; we should be expecting an announcement soon.
The X1 and C905 are the only phones that I remember being announced, completely forget what the others are which means some high end phones are due.
