        SePH> You seem to get me wrong there my friend. I was not "dissing" either phone as they both have equally good an bad points between them. I myself am a Sony Ericsson user and, in the past have had Nokia's as well. I don't understand what this whole "my phone is better than yours" argument is all about - that's all. It makes no sense. And by the way - if I don't know anything why am I running a cellphone store out here?

              Just to let you know, SE are planning to release a p910 update. Either as a 3g version or as a more powerful competitor to the XDA & alike. All i can say is watch out for updates soon. As for this 3250 i think its a original design & i think it will do well when released. Some of you Nokia bashers out there need to realise that Nokia have more balls then SE & Motorola, they tweek the basic design of a handset & make it their own & make it stand out! When was the last SE or Motorola that made you take notice of its originality? V3? S700i? Or the 7280? Agreed the 7280 did lack the fuctions of other phones but for those that own it or have seen someone take it out of their pocket did everyone around at the time go 'WOW?!?!' Did the V3 & S700i do that? NO because they look the same as all the rest! The 3250 will turn more heads then the W800 or the I-Rokr! Nokia have BIG cahounez man!

                  Hi ,
                  Thanks gsmarena for the details of this fone. Seems like a 90% of a perfect phone ...no clue why they didnt pur IR port but thats acceptable.
                  Also I wonder whats QCIF video... how much different this format is and what are its drawbacks?
                  and one last question...does this twist thing bugs you while you try to type an SMS ? I hope the phone has some anti twist lock too which would stop it from getting twisted while you type sms.
                  All in all a perfect phone for a perfect price i would say.. got all the features of 6230i AND big screen AND Symbian 9.1 ,2MP camera , EDGE, MP3 tones 64 Polyphonic and External MMC support....what else can be perfect? Hope the phone will be released soon :)

                    to kareeun,

                    "i want a camera phone with a smart os"

                    - SE has camera fons with smart OS.
                    - SE P900, 910...

                    "3G fon with camera"

                    - SE z800

                      Nokia vs SE
                      Well its quite meaningless to have heated arguments in this forum over which brand rules. It may be difficult to determine which brand beats the other, cos each has its own strengths that some ppl may enjoy over the other..So.. Maybe we shud wait for 3250 to be out and reviews on this hp are done? Then we can better judge and compare phones.
                      Btw 3250 does not support 3G. Well ppl have questioned the absence of a Card slot in N91, so Nokia has put one in instead of a hard drive. Anw i think the twist design is q fresh and innovative. Clever design cos keypad and music buttons are on opposite sides. Plus a cam that can shoot in 270 direction. CooL..

                        Based on the spec sheet provided by GSM Arena, this looks to be a pretty impressive phone. Not entirely sure why it has to twist, but maybe there's something I didn't read. I sincerely hope it's not just form over function. Maybe having it twist makes the camera more stable in people's hands because you shoot with both instead of just one?

                        To all the users of twisting phones, how's the durabiliity? I always worry that the thing's going to fall apart -- I'm not a big fan of moving parts.

                        I agree with one of the opinions here, though: no matter the rest of the specs, this had better be a pretty good phone. Cameras and music and all that other stuff is great, but if I can't make a call with it, it's back to the payphone for me. :D

                          n3250 is the best compact music and also smart phone in a resonable price. Its starting price will $425. Comparing to w800i this phone sounds good. w800i has same old k700i firmware with little modifications. And n3250 has symbian OS 9.1 . Remember only n91 got it and no other phone has symbian 9 OS.

                            SE VS. NOKIA
                            To put things straight. I say it again nokia is no.1
                            And re: Sonyericsson. Sony became popular because of their TRINITON(CRT) & WALKMAN Trademark. Well done Sony. When speaking of TV(crt) Sony is the Best period. But not to Flat panel display(like DLP, Plasma, LCD), Toshiba, Samsung, SHarp dominated this segment. How about Digital Camera? OOPS!!! correction! not sony but CANON is the no.1. What else? AV receiver? i think onkyo or denon. And ericsson of course telecommunication. What im saying is we are talking about MOBILE PHONE/CELL PHONE NOT TV! NOKIA is the dominant brand in this category. NOKIA will not be the NO.1 if they are crap/poor in quality, design, durability, performance, features, service etc. Im a SE user back then but i switch to nokia because of the reasons above. I think NOkia knows the "KNOW HOW" in mobilephone technology.

                              Sonyericsson cant compete with nokia. why? the answer is simple!!! nokia is NO.1 IN THE WORLD(30%+ MARKET SHARE AND NO.7 MOST TRUSTED BRAND NAME).SE is what no.5 next only to LG. remember SE is a 50-50 jointventure between sony & ericcson. this move is to boost their competitiveness which sony is a giant electronic co. and ericsson in telecommunication respectively. these are 2 giant company but WHY STILL NO.5?
                              FOR YOUR INFO.

                              were talking about market shares in the world. NOKIA IS THE BEST.

                                This is onne of the best phone because it has symbian that enable user to customer their need in their phone. It seems that the sound quality improvement is the plus point. I'm reallly looking forward the release of this phone.

                                  Of course, like what you said is true. Nokia is some sort of copy cat in which apperently, their designers and developers totally exhausted of creating new ideas. Howevever, as an end consumer, obviously ppl choose the best prodcut that suite their needs rather than to identify weather or not the product is copied which you think it is totally unfair to other competitors.

                                  What I'm trying to say is that nobady cares how the product is manufactured. Ppl only cares the specs of the prodcut.

                                  You can of course disagree with me if you want. It's just my oppinion again. (as before)

                                  As far as I believe, most customers will take the functionality into account. On the other hand, as for those who choose stylish, they should go for Samsung.

                                      Hey Rami and kareeun,

                                      I truly agree with both of you. For me, to choose a phone, I will go for the function. SE and even Samsung cannot compete with nokia (for the function). I really dun know why SE is soooo famous. If u ask me, I don't even keep track with the latest models as to I'm actually not so interested in it.

                                      Please don't consider my advise in an offensive manner. It's just my opinion. That's what it is :)

                                      Best regards,
                                      Malaysia

                                        Well, Nokia had a music phone first... Do not forget Nokia 5510 which had MP3 playback and FM radio. Already in 2001!!!

                                        What about 3250... Time will show but it's quite innovative and the design is fresh. :)
