I,ve found out that most of the user opinions here, are wrong. The UI is fast, faster than P1, the loudspeaker is very loud, really loud, the UI is very user friendly, and the camera quality is acceptable, not as good as n95, but good enough to print them. and the battery life is good, not great like my last w910, but it stays up till 2 days with heavy usage.

        Tobias, 22 Oct 2008Is it possible to install any type of Gps software on the phone?Yes, you can install Garmin Mobile TX on this phone, if you have a Garmin Bluetooth GPS device, then you can use this software free of charge, except for the map, otherwise you need to buy license to unlock the software so it can use any bluetooth GPS device.

            i just bought the phone and it really nice to me
            although it is much slower than i think
            but its touchscreen sensitive, easy interface, nice speaker.
            Maybe i must update the firmware in order to make it more perfect ^^

              I am a regular sonyericsson fan.I have tried g900i today at one of sony's own showroom. I didn't believe the negative comment (of many bugs) about this phone till today. But today i have a experienced the same. While ,on a demonstration the phone hasn't respond to open the camera. the shopkeeper tried many times but failed ultimately. Its totally unbelievable that sonyericsson has made such phone.

                Anonymous, 24 Oct 2008This is an excellent phone. My sister bought it and the tou... moreNice PR report.
                But, it is widely reported and undisputed that the G900 has a slow and outdated processor.
                Several pro-review also pointed that out.
                (even though they are not totally independent as we know:)

                Took for ever to release the G900 and after a few weeks it is already totally outdated.

                Picture quality is at the 3MP level if you lucky and got enough light.

                I suggest to everyone to try the phone before purchase.

                If you like it - enjoy it! Good luck with it!
                We all have different expectations ;)
                I think SE can make a much better phone -more reliable, and better performer!

                  This is an excellent phone. My sister bought it and the touch interface is great and very sensitive. The same things you can do with the keypad, you can do them with the pencil or your fingers. The cámera is very good and the flashlight may funtion as video light,too. There are no problems with the software so far and it responses quickly to any command. It's a very nice phone, go for it!!

                      gugu, 21 Oct 2008I need the opinion from G900 users. I am buying this ph soo... moreHey gugu: I've owned the G900 since it came out. The software app can be slow at times when you are trying to navigate quickly thru the phone via touchscreen or with the keypad. It has frozen up and locked up on me a few times in the camera mode where i had to remove the battery and put it back in to restart the phone. I also have the K800i (3.2mega pixels) and W960i (3.2mega pixels) and the pic quality for both phones in the daylite or evening looks just as good as the G900 5.0MP, especially when i zoom in the same pics and compare them. The G900 can only zoom 12x where the K800i can zoom 32x!!! I even uploaded the pix from all the phones onto my pc and they are still similar when i zoom in. Again, the G900's slow app software can affect your pic taking also. I dont know why the SymbianOS is slow in the G900! I've uninstalled and reinstalled it a few times from sonyericsson.com support, and its still slow. Yes, it has all the emoticons like the cybershots and walkmans. I'm holding onto the phone in case Symbian produces a better software to install. Despite the slow OS, I love this phone. the features on the phone are great for people who enjoy taking pix, having an organizer, storing music, media, docs, pics,etc... The camera features, the organiser, the stylus pen, touchscreen,scribble notepad, handwriting recognition areall my favourite features. I study Greek and this ph has the greek alphabet. i dont know if you are mulitlingual but it has text prediction in dozens of languages. if you have any other questions, feel free to email me at steveygti@yahoo.com I hope my answer was helpful.

                      "I need the opinion from G900 users. I am buying this ph soon. Is it true that this ph has software issues? 5mega cam that bad? I have K850. Is it comparable in day light condition? And most importantly, does this ph has SMS emoticons that SE non-smart phs(like cybershots and walkmans) used to have? pls help me. I need to know asap. i'm from singapore."

                        Emile, 23 Oct 2008When i bpught this phone i was so happy. But then it starte... morelike all phones.. you should of checked it out before you bought the phone.
                        because there is always that ONE phone that may have been made weird. but that's why stores will open the box for you and show you whats inside before you decide weather to buy it or not.
                        As a customer, your allowed to request a new one.. or even a different package because you don't like it.
                        thats why i prefer to buy it at a store.. because nothing like this would happen.
                        It might be that your was assembled like that.. you could try to contact SE about it.. and see if you could send it in for a new phone.

                              When i bpught this phone i was so happy. But then it started to make a click sound when i pressed gently on the battery case. Then it also began to make a click sound where the touch pen thingy is. The phone looks like it was asembled in a rush becouse some places it does not close tightly. Im dissapointed. My w810 is better assembled than this phone and never gave me problems. I love the wifi, becos i use it at work and home. I cannot find a casing for the phone. i can buy one in the uk but the currency wont allow it. I dont hope the phones in the future will be bad as this. Another thing is that the sticker around the navigation key is starting to get loose, This the worst phone yet.
