hey there people~
for me, its come down to either buying an SE k810i, or this (no losing either way...)

i really like both, so i have a dilemma at the moment.

to any owners - does this have a media/VIDEO player (i.e. can i stick mpeg4 on it through the M2, and it'll play - haven't seen anywhere saying this DIRECTLY)? considering it doesn't have a radio i think it'd be better to ask the dumb question just in case.

from what i can tell it looks like a pretty good phone - MAY not be value for money, but most design class phones aren't......

    луны are just thin plastic leaves glued onto the body, so they will crack in every phone no matter how hard you press. Shame to SE, spoiled so nice phone with terrible build quality, creaky plastic and cracking keys

          There are so many negative comments on the Keypad. Are there any users out there that have actually used the phone and not have any problems with the keypad?

                  no i've had no problems with my sim card. you put the card in as shown and push it in until it clicks. just like the M2 card does.

                          I just bought this phone and I am having some trouble with the lights.
                          When I change the colour to:
                          Light pink
                          Pink
                          Purple
                          White

                          They all show as a green/blue. Is this normal? If it isn’t ill send it back as its still covered under its 14 day Warranty. Plus the phone charger doesn’t work, but im not to bothered as I have a few chargers.

                              i have my mind all but made up to buy this phone....except i still KEEP hearing about the keypad splitting down the middle after a couple days
                              now i'm not a BIG txter,
                              but i still dont want my friggin keypad to split at anytime
                              so i'm gonna wait a few weeks, (3 the most) until a proper reviewe comes out..

                                  Fell in love instantly when I saw the adv last week. Realli lady killer phone but same like the phone shop assistant, both of us wonder y is it not a 3G phone. Saw the demo n really prefer it to W660i. But W660i is throwin in a pair of speakers which really tickles Me!!!
