Well i dont own a W902, so i dont have to big it up in any way shape or form, same goes for the C905, but the latter is more underrated from a neutrals stanpoint.
And with this statement, your logic has gone down the drain for the world to see. C905, underrated...pffh..
Compared toW902, as it obviously reads to any normal person.
anyway, i'll leave the fanboys alone to push their own phones in this thread from here on in.

I also find the SE A200 UI is under-rated compared to other brands. The java multi-tasking, shortcut assignments through activity menu and dpad in standby, task switching and general thoughtfulness of UI layout and methods. In my view the SE A200 UI can usually be more compared against smartphones than other feature phones.
Multitasking isnt the holy grail of an OS. When people buy a non smart phone the last thing you expect them to do is to multitask. The A200 UI is now pretty old IMO and needs an upgrade. Having used it, and having used the newest samsung interface like the one in U900, I'd prefer the U900 any day simply because its more fun and has a highly customizable interface. Not to mention it looks just far better with neat animations here and there, which again can be customized.
Which smart phone exactly would you compare the A200 with?
I compare the UI of my W910 with that of my N95 8GB. Many common tasks take half as many button presses in A200 as they do in s60. The A200 UI is much quicker moving from menu to menu (even the media player is generally faster, though not for images). The A200 camera software is better designed and a hundred times faster than the slow and clunky s60 camera. Retrieving contacts is faster and less button presses. T9 is better in most respects. There are many other examples. Basically A200 is a much more thoughtfully designed UI than s60, and that makes it more efficient and enjoyable to use.
Apps/Music or Video/Games/Messaging/Internet(via operamini) can run concurrently so most multi-tasking is covered, compared to other feature phones. Take S40 for example - A200 is streaks ahead of S40 in usability and multi-tasking ability.
The point I'm making is that A200 is closer to a smartphone OS than it is other brands non-smart OS's. I'm not trying to say it's the same or as flexible as a full smartphone os, just that it's underrated because people assume it's as limited as S40 and other non-smart os's when it's actually qualitatively different.
Anyway there is no multi-tasking in iphone but that doesn't stop people calling it a smartphone, so I think the definition of smartphone in the modern age is one that can do a lot of shit. Multi-tasking itself is actually OVERRATED as phone features go for most people. (mind you power users like us of course can't do without it - and I don't feel any better off with my N95 than I do when using my W910 when it comes to multi-tasking.)
If I had a W910 with wifi and decent camera I wouldn't be using the N95 at all. That basically means the C905, and yes I am saving up for one

Now i'm not a C series user so can't comment on the C905 but from what i've seen they look worth every cent i meant whats the MP on the camera again someone remind MWEB & Me please in way of cost take into consideration the technology in the higher costs phones & the work to ensure they don't stuff up a month later add the design, sound & feel & honestly Sony Ericsson doesn't really over-rate or over-price i think all Sony Ericsson Products are worth what you pay if not you wouldn't be looking in the first place would you...now IPhones haha i'm kidding thats a WHOLE different topic
EDIT: I saw a W910 owner please check out my V640 Vs W910 Topic under general & leave a comment...Thanks

W902 will get my vote for most underrated phone?
But I also agree about hefty price tag.

But right now W902 is a bit overpriced, it will be really underrated when its price goes down. For now I think both C702, C902 and T700 are the most underrated ones.

That doesn't mean underrated though [sigh]
Its not about the best package but the phone for which the following is true:
"Nobody realises how good it is!"

Doh! Wrong.
While the price is high it's underrated (opinion says its not worth buying but the feature set says otherwise) when the price comes down, general opinion will change and people will rate it appropriately.
