QD, just because they are muvh more expensive dosen't mean they are out of our reach, just because you may not be able to afford them, dosen't mean everyone on the forum can, and i apologize for not noticing the E398 firmware its just when my cousin had it she didn't have video recording, also the K700i dosen't have lousy features, most people say it because it's the particular K700i they have, because there maybe alot of complaints about the phone but theres also alot of praises.

I love my K700i, my battery power dosen't run out as quickly as all of yours, i have a blutooth dongle so i can send new mp3's (which i compress so i can fit many, up to 20! :)), i can play games, listen to mp3's and call people and mybattery will still last for days, i can easily turn off my camera shutter sound, my phone dosen't glith or freeze (and i have dropped it a million times), my camera is very clear, especialy when i send the pictures to my computer.

So you see people coming on the sight calling this phone crap just because they prefer N-gage(which i myslef do nto like), your all just syaing what you have experinced with the phone, just like me, just because i say N-gage is crap dosen't mean it is...its my opinion, so please stop putting people off the phone with your lame, self proclaimed problems!

    Alright everyone as a k700 enthusiast i will never say anything bad about the k700. The e398 does have video recording with the new firmware. So what the K700 is still better.
    I might as well leave the best game site link again. I think there is roughly 255 games.

        I think if we were to consider the time that the K700i was released, yes i have to admit, it is an all in one fone, the best around..

          And yeah Lol!, those fones u mentioned are way expensive than the QD, maybe twice or even triple the price than this fone.. So its not worth mentioning them.. Don't mention things out of the topic.. My point is that QD is cheaper than the K700i that have poor features.. Got it??

            Didn't i just say that gprs is too expensive??? And the buyer says that he want FREE games?? Read the posts carefully.. K700i is still a not so good enough fone.. Why bother using gprs if it is expensive.. With the QD, u can even access internet via bluetooth and there is no charge... This possibility is available in cafe shops and a bt internet access point.. Can the K700i do that.. It just can't.. And the lame 4x digital zoom and shutter sound is always a disadvatages to users.. What i do mean in my point is that ppl should sell off this fone and get the SE K750i, a better upgrade of the K700i.. Or get a Nokia 6230i..

                    Actually your saying what i am saying is wrong? The E398 has video player not video recorder, i have tried many times to record on the phone (my cousin has it) but there is jus tno record feature u not very smrt shmuck, remember, read this carefully, The E398 can play videos but cannot take videos, so now which phone is better "shmuck"?

                    And it is not way cheaper than the k700i, check in all the shops the K700i can be found at £100-130, which is the same price as what the E398 could be found as, so i know what i am saying isn;t wrong the SE K700i is better than the E398 "and the ridiculous perosn who said it does have video now" what are you tlaking aboout? the E398 has never been upgraded and so has been the same all the time, with no video recorder! Check out the phone properly, go to shops before you reply because i know i am right.

                    Oh and for the person who wnats games and that lot for the k700i: www.myt610.com (then click on K700i), www.mobile9.com, www.mobango.com and www.zedge.com

                        Actually i think this phone is more capable to all the female coz they no need to install extra sofware is safe time for the phone use the feature are already compact !!

                        in my view of the sonyerrison phone the producer are quite clever coz once they came out a new model the phone price will be very expensive but the price will fall down very fast after a week (its fall faster then nokia phone) i am currently using nokia 6600 this phone model is available about 3 years ago more the starting price is about RM1850 and todays it is only sell RM899 and sonyerricson K700 it is available about 2 years ago and the starting price is about RM1999 and now it sell only RM800 but i really dont know why all male user says this phone is better than 6600!!!

                        in another view see at the sony K700 the material of the phone is less quality than 6600 (it bring down the cost)but the phone start up price is higher than 6600 THE POINT WHY THE K700 became top interested phone is becoz its BRAND AND DESIGN and normally people get bored using nokia feature thats why sonyerrison earn so much money !!!

                        thats is my opinion.

                          U can easily receive symbian games, java games, ringtones, mp3, themes and many more with the N-Gage QD because it have an mmc slot for the mmc card to be read/write via the card reader. The K700i can only use bluetooth (consuming so much battery and u need to limit due to the 41mb memory space)to get games, themes and softwares. Grps are expensive to get those stuffs.. Try some nokia series 60 smartfones such as 3230, 7610 or any of them.. Nokia 3660/6600 is quite cheap for now.. U can transfer anything to your fone at ease. This fone is very poor in getting any data to them..

                                Christ almost everything that LOL schnook says abt the moto E398 is incorrect. the E398 has expandable memory. it comes with a free 64 MB card u schmuck. and it is expandable upto 512MB. yeah thts right. thats 512 MB compared to ur lovely 40MB. it DOES have video recording now. absolutely great. the cam quality is also improved with tht sotfware update. it's got iTunes. so works like an ipod now. its got the best speakers on a phone. everything you'd pretty much ever want. and whts more the E398 is helluva lot more cheaper than this junk. it performs as a phone splendidly.
                                the battery is just pointless even comparing becos the batt life in this seems to be a rather crude joke played on all the ignorant souls who fall for the colours and all tht jazz in phones like these...
                                so i think, LOL on you mate...

                                  Select silent mode in the phone and the camera shutter sound will turn off...
                                  Even a 2year-old child can do this...

                                    Read the fone features carefully.. The E398 does have an expansion slot unlike the K700i.. And the battery life isn't poor unlike some fones :)

                                      and also "QD" the 6230i maybe a very good phone but the E398 is like the V3, its very boring and simple and it also has a 0.3 megapixel camera so whats your point?

                                        "QD" you said: "Why bother using a fone that have all features but is very convenient? It makes ya to dislike the fone everyday instead like this one, K700i.. 4x digital zoom is a joke and unusable as pixels are low, shutter sound cannot be turn off, battery drains very quick if using the stereo sound and play games and 0.3 mp is quite outdated.. Motorola E398 and Nokia 6230i beats this fone anyday.."

                                        The Motorola E398 is no where near as good as the K700i, sure it has 2 speakers and rhythmic lights, but thats pretty much it!
                                        The phone only has 5mb internal memory and dosen't use memory sticks, so you can only fit one low quality mp3 on your phone (disgraceful), also you cannot take videos, you can only watch them (you can either get them through blutooth from another phone, and motorola blutooth is very slow, or download videos from your network web site, which costs), the K700i has 41mb internal so you can put much more than just 1 mp3, also you can take, send and recieve videos.
                                        I do not have any problems with my K700i, my battery power lasts long (even when i take pics & videos, play games, and listen to mp3's) I easily turn of the camera shutter sound (by changing the profile), i can add up to 20 compressed sized mp3's and my phone has good network coverage, good games, decent picture quality and video quality, s overall i love the K700i, but because the phone isn't that new anymore if you are looking for a new phone i would recommend teh Sony Ericsson K750i, a great upgrade.

                                        So i do not think the K700i is crap its a really good phone!
