Please somebody let me know if that phone can be used other countries except Japan? Does it have Usim lock that vodafone phones do. For instance, can I use it in Turkey?

Sorry, i just realized the movie issue was mentioned before, but could the movie be shrinked down as people in the S700 forum have said and be played in the N840? From spec N840 should be better, but since this forum is new, I know most of the possiblities of S700 and not NEC 840, please correct me if I'm wrong.

I'm about to buy a phone and my choices are down to SE S700 and NEC840. Can you help me decide?
For SE700: (Correct me if I'm wrong)
Pros:
Full Bluetooth, can view a whole movie. Big, nice 262k screen
Cons:
128mb limit(although rumor has it that it can use a bigger memory stick other than Sony), maybe software lag, been around for a while
NEC N840:
Pros: 2mp, quad band(don't really care), video ringtone, new
Cons: bt limit to headset only, mini SD(don't know where to buy one, don't know about memory limit), not pure mp3 ringtone(maybe a pain), no one knows if it could play a full movie.
Your help is greatly appreciated. Sold my k700, using a t310, I need a phone soon.

You talk shit DavyJ
DavyJ, don't mess up this forum with your anti N840 posts... The n840 is better than the M900 and you know it.. (mitsu suck against NEC as a whole aniway) there is next to no phyical difference between the CMOS cam and the CCD cam it's even rumored to be better than the 902's CCD sensor... and btw how would you like it if we started messing up the m900 forum???

lighter colors look smaller, and darker looks bigger just like the white version of oy 7610 looks thinner and smaller then the black but it really isn, you can look past lighter colors but darker stick out more, even in gsmarena reviews if there are two different color like the 7610 they even say light colors look thinner then dark

and lets not get on the smaller diff the size diff is minimal you couldnt tell when they are sitting next to each other well na840 looks bigger cuz it is very dark.....and m900 can hold bigger size memory card and has more photo settings then n840.... and has a nice camera style about it and when fliped open yu can take group photo. and mp3 sound quailty is better for rongtone and for listening on m900 mp3 ringtone has to be set low for n840 cuz it is to distorted!and the clip on the back that hold the battery in like to get caught and pop open when it gets stuck....and also in photo with to much light the nec becomes very bright and washed out photo, m900 has setting to bring the objects stand out and look great... nec dosent...i would say the nec 1.3 ccd cam is very comparible to this 2mpcmos but the 1.3 is richer and more vibrant

bluetooth how nice to bad it is limited.... and what is the point of having it if you have your headphones plugged in all the time.... and to who didnt belive me that i have booth are you jealious or something that i can afford booth? huh? i collect phones i have tones so dont tell me to shut up, and size really dosent matter cuz there are lots of big phones out there and by the way the n840 is kinda tacky looking with its plain insides and orange glowing keypad at least m900 is stylish and modern.... and i wil say this to the end m900 cam is better if you want a better one then m900 then get sharp 902 a true 2mp ccd cam unlike nec 2mp CMOS.... and tiny outside screen m900 is much bigger and clearer

The NEC N840 is much and much better than the m900...it's smaller, has bluetooth, the true 2.0MP CMOS camera is very good and just look at the extras you get with it! The Mitsu just can't live up to it

magazines have compared both the n840 & the m900, and the winner is the n840 in most catagories. when you use the zoom function of the m900 to take a picture, you will find the picture a little blurred.

you can use infrared to transfer things like ringtones/mp3s (unlike most samsung phones). no huge movies, as someone else has already mentioned, the phone supports up to 256MB max. as for reception, it works well for me...both sounds and clarity. it will depends on how many of the 4 bands your mobile network supports though. for me, since my network supports 2 of the 4, i get great reception. but then again, if your network provider only supports gsm 1900, there's no point in saying how this phone receives less reception than others. back to the camera....since i don't own an M900, i might be a little biased towards the N840. when i said the N840 pics turned out better, that was actually the opinion from my other friends who compared pics that we took. to me, i think the N840 takes excellent pics. the fact that the photos turn out much better than the N830, which uses CCD, will make you wonder if CMOS is really THAT bad afterall.....

no it wont play movies like that, maybe a music vid at most! the card reader will only go up to 256, you can transfer thru infred, i would sugest the m900 over this phone i do have booth and m900 has better reception and card can go up to 500 but should handle 1 gig when it comes out, and it has infered, the only diff is the screen is much clearer on m900 and nicer and the outside screen is much better and the cam takes better pictures then n840

Thank you unknown for your great input. Just 2 more questions before I run out and buy this phone:
1)Can the infrared transfer files such as mp3 to another phone? (My girlfriend has the K500i, I really hope it could do that)
2)Can this phone play a big movie such as "Spiderman 2"
Again, your help is greatly appreciated. Thank you. Cheers

this phone is actually quad-band. it doesn't have full bluetooth support, only can use it for bluetooth headset. as for mp3 ringtones, u can convert ur mp3s using a program and have mp3 ringtones. but i really wouldn't recommend doing that cuz the mp3 ringtones end up REALLY loud...gives me headaches. plus, the Midi ringtones sound AMAZING anyway. the 2MP camera on this phone is great! if you've tried the camera on the NEC N830 (CCD) before, you'd know that u see squares on the screen when taking photos. N840, even though it uses CMOS, the photos turn out much better...even better than the ones taken by M900, when i compared photos with my friend. the phone's got everything....mp3 player, camera, great ringtones....selling for around $480USD in hong kong right now (only came out a few days ago). even the price is great....what more can u ask for??
