Hi Pinak,
If you can change your views on 6230i in fav. of SE K750, why not look for W800i. I feel it beats in terms of the points you have mentioned.
I felt convinced seeing your earlier reply and thought of buying 6230i. Now what? If price is not an issue, 6230i or W800 which one is "really" better?
Any comments....
(somehow i felt inclined towards 6230i)

      Final word:

      Why go for NOKIA? if -

      1. Better Camera with flashlight
      2. Better sound quality
      3. Better battery life
      4. All-in-one phone with USB cable too.
      5. Almost same quality and larger display
      6. Better navigation, and joystick
      7. OK keypad
      8. Etc. Etc.

      I think.. sales are low for NOKIA 6230i because of above reasons. Just for a difference of about USD70, why not go for K750i?

      Sad to say.. it has beaten Nokia almost on all fronts. My final word..

        Nothing is better than the W800i these days,I also admit that but people using Nokia phones don't like to go to SE because of the software and menus.

          I enquired in India. This is the lowest selling phone. I don't know why.

          SE K750i is selling like anything.

          Well.. I have been told that people faced many problems with Nokia 6230i, including battery life, software n stuff.

          I was also told that SE K750i battery lasts for around 2 days, and has excellent sound quality and camera and features. Only lacks EDGE. I personally tested K750i and is really brilliant and compact too. It is selling in India for Rupees 17000 i.e. around USD370. The screen could be a bit bigger but it is really fine. Ofcourse I noticed a lag when you start this phone when you put your SIM. But, when it settles down.. then works very fast.

              This Phone is amazing!, also the fact that the price is right for the general consumer makes it a fantastic buy, I don't know what I'll do without mine! Great improvement on the 6230(My previous handset) which I was in love with until the "i" came along.

                    You can add very little additional programs in these phones as compared to Symbian phones. Still you can get hold of some java games and applications in some sites. One of them is www.zedge.no.

                          hi everyone

                          ive been usin the i for 4 months now... its been gud to me so far... but sadly battery life is still dissapointin..

                          my mum has a 6230 n when i use it i feel its much more solid then the i...
                          sound seems to b louder too.. the i is more delicate i can say...

                          the 6230 i think is the fastest nokia mob to date.. only if the i was as good

                          cheers!

                            I have been using this for a week now, and I'm very satisfield to what I've buy. Phone seems to work fine with my Kingston 1gb mmc. Some additional programs would be nice, but it seems to be hard to find anything with good enough graphics.

                                    One more finding !

                                    I recorded video with Samsung E730 I recently bought for my syster I found that its quality is MUCH better than 6230i's. Quite frankly I was a bit disappointed. But one should take into account the fact that Samsung IS a manufacturer of digital cameras and video recorders! So, it should not come as a surprise. And you know what? - I did not change my opinion and affection to my 6230i. Strange, isn't it? Nokia masters consumers' brain wiring! I respect that! lol

                                        Pinak,
                                        Read the Nokia 6681's review thats here. The 6681 has got certain drawbacks, like dictaphone of 1 min limit,no radio,no infrared,works with RS-MMC Dual Voltage cards only and its priced more than the 6230i.RS-MMC dual voltage cards cost more than normal MMC. It has got only 8MB internal shared memory whereas the 6230i has 32MB.Why will you spend more on a lesser equipped thing. Get 6230i, you won't regret it.

                                        Henry,
                                        I can only say to you that great decision that you have made. Nokia phones are much more faster than SE. 6230i is no exception
                                        No lags when accesing the MMC even with a 512MB card. I use a 512MB Fujitech and 400MB is already used. I experience no lags at all. Now the mp3. If you have read my previous posts then you should see that I have always appreciated the quality of the mp3 player. The mp3s sound perfect when they are heard through the headset. Same applies to the radio. I don't say that the loudspeaker is not good but you won't get the feel actually. NokiaMia,one of our forum's experts has modified his mobile phone and he can use any headphone in this handset rather than the provided one. So if you want to use a good headphone then better ask NokiaMia. Peace.
