Bookmark topic
I’m just wondering if sony ericsson are failing in producing great phones to the same extent they were doing 2 years ago.
They have had the k800 for some time now and instead of a mass company like sony comepeting with the likes of the n95 they make a k810, identical to the k800!! What’s the point? Come on its sony! Isn’t this the same company who make PSP's and HD Tvs??
I don’t no why they don’t put all their finest features into one phone e.g a walkman 2.0 or higher with cyber-shot camera, complete with sat nav and tv! This will make the n95 and even nokia's corporation crumble. The thing Sony have over nokia is that sony make almost everything to do with technology while nokia only make phones.
Sony could easily have the best phone in the known world come out if they use all their advantages but instead they feel like putting each of them into one device and make another feature incredibly weak. E.g Good camera on k800 but worse media player, great media player on w850 but terrible camera. Why dont they put all of them in once??
The w880 has just been released and in about a years time it is already confirmed that its successor will have a radio and that’s it. I don’t think Sony don’t no what a successor is if they put in one feature a k700 has into a 3G phone like w880.
What do you lot think??

I have to agree. The company is Sony Ericsson. Not Sony. Apples and oranges. Your comparing TV's to phones show how little you know about consumer products, however you are correct. I no longer use SE (that's Sony Ericsson for you) products anymore and have become the proud owner of a Nokia N95. Even with its current faults, beats anything SE has on the market.

I have a feeling innovations on phones might reach a bit of a plateau now, maybe see more 'totally integrated' devices with built it sat-nav but that's it.
Most people seem happy just calling, texting and taking the odd picture, and don't use the more advanced functions on their phone much, if at all!
Though I would like to see more well-rounded 'Jack of all trades' phones, a 'la W800i, W8810i, and not the current SE trend for '
phone with comparatively crap camera' or 'Cyber-Shot phone with relatively crap music player'. I miss those phones with both features!

player

in my point of view;
ever since nokia has raised the standards of a "good phone" to the new and fully featured phone marketing strategy in an effort to show it's company's size prowess. and the people, are usually hungry for such things that even though they don't need certain things they want it to their phone even though it's too redundant on their lifestyle because it is what they see on the market. i don't mean that it's bad to try new things but, answer me do we really need those new things? people have different lifestyles and having it a "jack-of-all trades" thing wont be such an advantage to cover all people's lifestyle because theres always disadvantage, and that disadvantage may affect other people. so they stick to the phone that betterly suits them(simple phone with enough good functions) SE imho understands that so they don't rush, or put all things on the table to make a mess. same as Samsung, Motorola, LG and other phone manufacturers so we can't see their phones as highly spec'd as nokia phones did. i see that all those companies(except nokia) target the "thing" that matters most; design and function balance. nokia as of now can hardly show us a feature packed phone with excellent design as we did seen on those brands. this is why i mean when i said "theres always a disadvantage". so imho THERES NO POINT to say SE FAILS TO PRODUCE GOOD PRODUCTS... analyst may understand that so nokia is now very different to those other giants as opposed "before".

add to my previous post,
motorola and SE have feature packed phones in the form of A and P series, nokia have phones in at least in PAR of their technology; the featurepacked 9xxx series. but now Nokia tends to be too high in their standards in their smartphones as motorola did on Q series and SE on the P-series smarthones.
