> Should I buy the K610i?
Bookmark topic
Hi everyone, first post here!
Anyway,
A month ago, I sold my Nokia 3220, which I've suffered a lot from.
I saw that the SE K610i was for sale with a SIM Card with 3,120 minutes for about $192.
I did my homework, and read a few reviews, but I want to some ask things:
1) How is it's multi-tasking?
2) How good is
- Video and Sound player?
- web browser?
- Java performance?
4) Any things I should know about it?
I'm hoping to avoid Symbian/Nokia phones this time, but the Nokia 6120 Classic has a nice design and it's on sale for about $280. Is the difference in functionality and features worth the price difference?
And is there another phone I should consider? I'd mainly use the phone for web-browsing every now and then, Java games and apps, and Music/Video.
Thanks for your help in advance!

@extreme - Neva had a K610i but did own a K618i . . . almost the same though, but I like the K618i - much better (design and all) . . . good camera though NOT auto-focus . . . Good Luck and welcome to Esato !

The menu is very easy to navigate. Press and hold the back button to get back to the front screen, like all SE phones.
The shortcut button - the one on the middle far right enables you to switch from one open application to the other so not bad at multitasking. Not sure if it can handle more than one Java app at once though.
Not the loudest of phones but a good alrounder and can be found for a good price right now. Has A2DP also for wireless stereo headphones too.

There's also an important question I want to ask:
- AFAIK, the phone doesn't support EDGE. Is GPRS the only way to access the internet, or is there another way to access it, by 3G for example?

Its a 3g phone on the 2100Hz frequency. Where are you? 3g is fast enough for most stuff.

Well, the SIM card that comes with it is 3.5G enabled.
So you mean that I can access the internet by 3G? Good to hear that. I was asking because I wasn't sure what 3G actually is :/

3G is VIDEO-call mate ! Yes, the K610i is a 3G fone . . . but like what I have said . . . I like the joystick on the K618i than with that of the K610i . . .

Vodafone's version of the K618, the V630 is awesome value. You get a K618 in black and orange which looks cool, a 256MB M2 card, USB cable + Disc to Phone software, handsfree headphones AND plug in stereo speakers which sound great! Features include A2DP BT stereo, a very good 2.0MP NON-auto focus camera, 3G high speed downloads (384 kbps) mobile TV and video calling, Awesome

UI and calender / alarm functionality, not to mention great freeware such as Themes from Zedge dot com and the best phone sync software - MyPhoneExplorer. MPE alone will have you hooked on

for life...

@extreme - See, the K618i is far much better than the K610i (as per carkitter's - specs!)
