    SE stopped making this model for a reason!
    1: do not sell

    2: buggy

    3: slow, old outdated processor

    There are some in the stores since nobody buys them.

      I must agree with BopZ, before you make the choise to buy anything, make sure you know all the advantages and disadvantages that are usefull for you. This phone is great for (video)calling, keeping yourselve organised and surf the web. This is a strong phone, it already survived multiple drops on the ground from different hights and at different speeds :-) I myselve find the 5mp (non cybershot)camera a little disapointing. When you make pictures inside, you get to much yellow. The fact that the flash doesn't work with the stabilizer doesn't matter, why would you use an image stabilizer when you are far out of reach for the flash's light :-)
      I recommend the phone for people with high expectations who want a firm and not to small phone with very little limitations.

        KCostas, 16 Nov 2008I can not agree with all the bad comments about G900. Yes, ... morewhen I say it's ok to post the -ve things, that doesn't mean I'll, or anyone in that case, just believe to what they say...

        I'm just saying that it's never good to see only one side of things, especially when what u express can effect other people's decisions...

        I know I made it sound too big, you can just sell it back anyways, but it doesn't hurt to be more balanced...

        I myself have this phone, n I think it is a very good phone, for me...
        again, just to be frank, 'I THINK' the battery life is a bit poor, as after a day of mediocre use I need to recharge it...

        I don't know about those who can use it heavily and only need to charge the battery after 2 days...
        did you guys just recently bought them?

        JOSEPH, it has no GPS...
        the blinking screen, I got no experience on it but it seems to be an error in the backlighting or something...
        if you want to fix it just bring it to the SE guys for repair...

          C'mon guys, the battery isn't that bad. I've listened for 10hrs straight and talked for 2hrs during my study. I've only charged in the next 2 days. And once again, I've mentionned almost in every posts..don't expect too much of the camera, you are buying a cellphone not a camera. If you need better quality, go buy a camera instead. 3.15mp or 5mp is enough for a phone guys!

            Chiang, 17 Nov 2008Would anyone kindly tell me where I can download themes and... moreChaing you can download them on www.zedge.net but you must register yourself on page. And also themes from p1i, m600, p990i, w950i you can download and install them on g900. I installed many themes for a phone p1i, p990i, m600 and w950 on my g900. They are working very fine on my phone!

                    I already have this phone. I just bought it yesterday and supposedly, i want the P1i but most cellphone boutiques that we inquired said that it is already phased out. There is something i just observed on the screen, why is it slightly blinking? is it because the screen is sensitive or what? if there is someone here who experiences the same situation i have, kindly explain to me.

                      Frank Foo, 17 Nov 2008Well..i am new in smart phone..i just use G900 for 2 days..... moreThe picture doesn't move? Try to recode the compatible video file to have smaller resolution and bitrate. If you can not turn the flash on, switch the image stabilizer off first. To get rid off the rest of the flaws, i recommed to update the firmware.

                            You (anonymous) are probably young and unexperienced person, who never used UIQ or hardly used any phone at all to be able to compare devices.

                                ´busy´ :)))
                                I do not want my phone to be busy all the time!
                                I want to to be ready for usage!

                                But that is too much to ask from the G900!

                                  BopZ, 15 Nov 2008I think it is okay to share all the -ve things that anyone ... moreI can not agree with all the bad comments about G900. Yes, the camera could perform better, but it's not terrible as people said. There is no point of comparing it's picture quality, anyway we all know that cybershot makes better photos. But it's not a cybershot! Compare it to P1 or similar, and then you'll see the difference. My battery stays for 2 days with calls, music, wifi etc. It's adequate. The menu has no lagging while browsing. The phone works faster then previous uiq phones even with the memory full. If, lets say, messaging opens longer then you expect, don't terminate it after use, let it run on the background to open faster next time. Don't worry the phone has perfect RAM managment, minimized applications don't consume any RAM! That's the reason that SE didn't emplement the option to close programs after use. Installed applications work stable in my phone. My advice is don't try to force the phone to do anything while it processing something. It even writes "Busy" on the display for stupid users. It seems to me that there are more dumb users that faulty phones. Tell me if I'm wrong!

                                      The only thing that bithers me about the G900/700 is the lack of profiles. I sometimes need to go in a meeting and want the vibrator on with no sounds, and sometimes when I go to sleep I want even the vibrator off. So it's not something trivial. Is there any way around this I mean it can't be just left off by SE without even an alternative. on the other hand the whole phone is nice and I love its way of organising stuff, but the camera is not good and the interface a bit slow... So what is an alternative that you guys know of that gives almost the same specifications ??

                                        what are the differences?
