    w980 lover, 31 Oct 2008i disagree completely with what you say about this phone be... moreI really really agree with the comfort in typing SMS, but when i try to type it fast, i found it's hard, coz my thumbs need to travel widely around the keypad.

    But the music is really amazing, really is. ^^

        craziefunky, 29 Oct 2008Hey. I'm considering to get this phone since my 2 yrs conta... moreThere is a slide lock on the side of the handset which stops you from accidently pressing the keys on the handset.

        I think that my battery life is pretty bad. Re charging every second night. :( Keys are slightly awkward and i find the software a little slow. My previous handset was the W850i and it seemed more responsive.

                    Hey. I'm considering to get this phone since my 2 yrs contact is coming to an end soon.
                    I'm wondering, is there a possibility that we will accidentally press the keys on the cover (foward, play, stop button for music) if we keep our phone in the bag/pocket?

                      this phone is with memory card or?
                      it shows that it had 8gb memory.

                        Finally I've got the phone now. What I can say is, the music is great, the left channel and right channel do the job well, very well. The bass is not as strong as the megabass, but it is more comfortable to be listened to rather than mega bass. Talking about the camera, I don't really care, bcoz I bought this phone for music.
                        The FM transmitter could perform well and there is no disturbing noise, but the volume is about a half from the regular radio, so u must turn up the volume bigger than regular radio.

                        In conclusion, this phone is very recommended for music maniac, but it's not recommended for SMS maniac, coz the distance between one button to another is quite long.

                            Ive had this phone for about 3weeks and now I can answer some of ur questions; at first the battrey life of my w980 is magnificent 3days with intensive using and 4-5days with minimal usage(the best SE performance I've ever seen) I wonder about those complaints about battrey life seems they never even tried the w980,
                            anyway about sound quality I should admitt that its completely a matter of taste the base is not too high but the quality is magnificent I mean if u like pop, pop/rock and these stuff w980 goves u the best performance you've ever had but if you are a techno or hard rock lover u should consider some of new music minded nokia phones
                            the speakers work great again the best ive ever experience though its not the loudest but very good in loudness and excellent in quality and about the sound quality through the headphones again its louder than other SE phones but not louder than Iphone and some of nokia phones though i can never listen to the music at highest level two or three level downer than highest level works perfect and the quality as I said is magnificent for pop songs
                            I havent had any hang or something experience yet
                            java programs work perfect on the phone I have about 60game and 50programms on my phone and everything seems fine
                            my only problem is the restriction of fm transmitter i hope someone solve it very soon
                            the camera performance is much better than what i expected forget about AF and macro mode the camera is working great
                            and the interface is quite fast its not slow at all
                            making calls with this phone is kinda fun and incoming and outgoing voices are crystal clear no doubt about it
                            one of my frinds had asked that is it worth or not, my answer is that if u want to consider feature only maybe its not but don't forget this phone is a fashion minded phone so part of its price related to the design, if you want feature go for g900 if u want to be unique and fashionable and care for feature less w980 is a great choice

                                        Anyway, this phone offers exceptional audio performance compared to that of any SE walkman phones out there. Does an excellent job though.
