Lots of people in this thread said that SE phones are more expensive than Nokia's. What? Maybe 6600 is cheaper than p900, but think of 7250i and t610... Which one is better? SE T610. But 7250i costs 100 euros more... Morale: if Nokia phones cost 2/3 their actual price, we could make comparisons...

The Nokia 7-series is called Fashion (8 is Premium, 6 is Classic), that's why there's an extra on the price. But the phones look fashionable too

I think Nokia 7-series look fashionable for children only... but that's only my opinion.
By the way, we could say the same things about Nokia 6-series, 8-series... They should be cheaper!
I own a t610 and I am very satisfied with it. It is not perfect, but it still has no competitors on the market. No other phones have the same quality/price ratio (Z600 & t630 apart... same phone - new cover filosophy by SE?).
I don't say Nokia is crap, or SE is the best.
Simply, I can't find any reason why I should buy a less-featured phone paying it more.
Maybe Nokia 6230 will change the situation... If we forget the small screen... if bluetooth works decently (with ALL headsets!)...

Here's my 2 cents,
My personal (very probably biased) opinion about Nokia's is that they're not wel built (exchangeable covers aaarrrghh) have an awfull menu system (hey and I came from a A1018s, and still hated the nokia menu system). Yet this is all very subjective.
An objective fact, which is valid in my country at least, is that Nokia is unable to bring out phones with a good price/quality balance. Compare a Nokia and a SE phone from the same price range and you will notice that Nokia cannot offer the same amount of features for that price.
One argument could be that the customers just want a simple phone to call, send text messages, play games, et cetera. Fair enough, but then why for such a high price? If Se can make a feature-laden phone for the price of a simple Nokia, Nokia must be working with huge profit margins keeping the price high.
If people want a simple phone, they should be able to buy such a phone but not for a price that's kept high artificially. Nokia seriously needs to begin pricing their phones in reference to their value.
If I shop around for a new phone I want the best bang for the buck , and that's always lead me to (S)E, and still does.

Hey ppl,
I haven't been posting for almost a year, but let me tell you something, you can compare phones, but you can't compare choices, what I mean, is sometimes you are used to a phone brand, because of its system, way it looks, etc..., and all the rest will look like crap.
I started with a Motorola, I've never been afan of it, changed to nokia, and loved it at the time, even had the 6150, which at the time was the best business phone.
I am a business user, once I saw the functionalities of the T39m, I was going to buy, but 1 week later I saw the T68 I bought it and I loved it, that was when I started to hate Nokia, but when the T68 came out, there was no better phone at the time, but now there many phones for many choices, I have to tell till today the best phone I ever had was the 9210, altough there were many but many features missing, even prefered that to the P800, but like anything it is a choice of what you like and what you need.
I went to the T68 because it looked nice, it had a colour screen, and had what i needed e-mail, bluetooth, ir and gprs.
Well compare this to the 6310i, well 6310i does not have a colour screen and is as good or better than T68i.
So you can't really say the phone is crap, cause it might be for you but for someone it might be a great phone, cause thats what they were looking for.
The best phone for me would be a 9210i communicator with dual colour screen, bluetooth, IR, HSCSD, MMS, GPRS, a built-in cam, built-in GPS, with the same look, but a tiny bit thiner, with the inner screen touch screen, Java, plyphonic ringtones, Java, e-mail, html, xtml...
But this what I would like to have, and it doens't need to be Nokia, as long as it fits my needs.
