Can anyone help me out with what the differences are between this smartphone and regular phones? Is it worth paying a bit over 1000 SEK (about 115 EUR) MORE to get the Qtek smartphone instead of the SE K700i?

Help is appreciated.

*forgot a word there, made the phones seem a bit cheap

What is Qtek 8010??? I've never heard about it. If it is good, I would hear about it. Since I didn't hear about that phone, and that brand, I would reccomend k700, better buy something that is shure, than something that you don't know where to service! This message was posted from a K700i

Thullan, care to elaborate on that? If its only a bunch of outlook sync abilities that make a smartphone, i´m not interested. I havnt been able to find any real info on what makes smartphones better then ordinary mobilephones, only outlook sync things, and wlan (windows mobile too of course).

The Qtek runs Windows Mobile 2003 which will give you internet browser, MSN Messenger, Pocket Outlook, miniMD memory cards, the posibility to download new applications etc. No radio though. But as you sad, it costs ~1000 SEK more than k700 so you'll have to decide if it's worth it. And who knows, the k700 may fit you better even if they were priced the same. I leave the decision to you

The problem with smartphones as I see it (and yes Ive had smartphones) is that the ability to install applications is often mentioned as an important feature and one of the biggest things that diffentiates between smartphones and normal phones - but most smartphone owners I talk to actually havent found or installed any usefull applications - partly because the amount of usefull applications are limited (no need for a thousand different currencyconverters etc.), partly because the users dont have as much need for applications as they thought when they bought the smartphone.

Therefore alot of smartphone owners gets stuck with a bulky, slow, expensive smartphone that is only being used as a normal phone.

Point is - smartphones are worth it if you really need the extra features - if not, most people are better off with a smaller, nicer, cheaper normal phone.

PS: normal phones also synch with outlook - you dont need a smartphone for that.
