The handphone/cellphone/other types of PHONE thread!!! - Page 14

I'm currently using a Nokia 6630. Listening to mp3s alone already takes up a whole lot of battery power. I end up having to recharge every end of the day. What a hassle.

The W800i on the other hand, because my housemate is using it, the battery is able to withstand days and days without recharging even if you leave the walkman running for hours. (or long periods of time, take your pick)

W810i? has to be better than w800i right?

Hmm.. Any new Nokias that have the same grace and value as the old Nokia 6100?

May be 6230i for you

Agreed on both counts. Compare the specs of the high-end Nokia phones with the SE ones. SE have better features or at least much better battery life, and are cheaper.

SE phones do seem to have better battery life. It could be due to Sony themselves.

I've always noted the superior battery life of Sony products. Maybe they just focus a lot on power optimizations.

Hmm.. This Motorola phone also has poor battery life. Even a much older Samsung mobile phone has much longer battery life than my phone.

Hmm.. Looks simple and cheap.

Hmm.. Should I go back to candybar phones like that?

I think is better go for SE or Nokia... LG

although so far dun have much bad feedback from users, you just pay for the look not the features.
