> se p990i OR samsung u700 ?
Bookmark topic
OK, I have both a P990i and a U700, so I can let you know what I feel about them.
Obviously both are very different devices, the P990 being a full on smartphone, and the U700 being a camera / fashion phone. So for start off, the comparison maybe 'strange'
If you are a power user, then the P990 wins hands down, you can install loads of applications, you have wifi, blackberry support etc etc, but on the downside, it's big, heavy, eats battery and software can be, shall we say, temprimental.
The U700 on the other hand, is certainly smaller (much!), lighter, better battery life, and personally speaking is much better looking. On the downside, it lack wifi, and the wider application support. The audio in the samsung is great in my opinion, gaining useful input from their work with Bang and Oulfsen projects, with the ICEpower amplification etc. You also have HPDSA support.
As for costs, they are basically even, expansis.com are listing the P990 at £175 Uk and the U700 for £180 UK today.
I have loads of SE handset, and Samsung, and I think both have great plus points, you really can't go wrong to be honest, just decide what needs you have.

Agree with floatlite, had a U700 for a couple of days now, whilst it's no smartphone it has a lot of positive qualities, certainly way better than a W880i to perform a similar job.

Totally depends IF you need the Wifi, use the TS, or prefer to have a large bulge in your pants
, if not, the U700 is the better bet.

@mweb - Well, honestly . . . I really LIKE how the P990i looks like (built), as the way I sees the U700, it's more of a
- fone
also, NOT to forget the THINNESS of the fone, which I think might GIVE-IN (crack/breaks in TWO) anytime when placed at the trouser's-behine-pockets
I have NOT had any Samsungs for the looongest time now, I think it was only the V200 in 2003
Yup, I like the way the SOUND works, quite LOUD compared with the others . . .
