Thats just what i was thinking of, all you need is a clip to snap it on the phone, and you're sorted!

I'm not that bothered it doesn't have it either. It's just always a shame to see a good idea go to waste like video calling has done.
The fact that it still supports video calling, but uses the rear camera, is fine for me. Although I have used the service a few times in the last 3-4 years (hardly incentive to keep the front-facing camera), I can think of examples where I'd like to show someone video of what I'm looking at - where I am etc.
And at least you can receive video calls from others, even if you choose to use a static image as the one being sent from yourself. And not only can you send stills, but the phone will also send videos from your media library too - making it the quickest way of showing someone a video instantly.
So, it has evolved and people aren't using it for its intended purpose (face to face communication where you must hold the phone up uncomfortably and with the sound blasting out to everyone else around you). That's a common thing, just like SMS was never expected to become as popular as it did and used in the way it did.

neverless....whats the bloody point to have a videocall feature if you dont have a secondary camera who points at you ???? it make no sense.
on k850, c902, etc, you have the choice to change cameras & even change camera-views...it like it suppose to be.
SE can rather throw that crap into the garbage

Cannot ever remember making a single Vidcall, other than to check that it was actually possible to do so, so it's omission (front camera) is no biggie IMO.
Well the days are creeping by, and no sign of this in the shops, the closer it gets to xmas with that still being the case, the less likely this product is likely to do well.
I'm still highly dubious as regards it's bulk and not overly generous screen size, but the proof of the pudding will be ultimately judged on image quality, which should be exceptional!!

The stores I've been to are expecting it in a couple of days (UK).
It's not really that bulky either. Holding the dummy handset yesterday it felt much smaller than it looks in the pictures. Felt not much bigger than my K810i.

Yeah I saw photos of it next to a K850i and their dimensions looked pretty much the same. If people dealt with the K850i's size, they can certainly live with this. I know I could, but I won't be getting a new phone for a while. The C915 might be out by then!

That's because it is only a cm or two bigger than your K810i

.
Looking at it purely on paper, C905 is the fattest of the 8mp offerings, height/width is quite acceptable though, not the lightest of units either, however, if the extra weight, depth, transmute into something really solid, with exceptional build quality, then it would be a price worth paying.

K850i sized is what I heard too however, with the rounded edges and not the sharp ones of the K850 it should be more comfortable.
The bronze version is on sale at the same time as the black at
CPW.
