there is no N72 music edition. only N70 has music edition. and one suggestion - if you are mainly interested in music dont think about N-series mobiles. N-series mobiles are symbian phones, they are useful mainly for multitasking and 3rd party applications like word/excel viewer and sis games. for music you have no need to spend that amount. take any SE walkman series phone
or even Nokia 6230i is better for music than N70, as 6230i has 5 band equalizers, N70 doesnt have any.

first of all there is no comparison between N72 n w800i as they both have different uses....

as far as ur resale value is concernd Nokia is havin priority among customers who buy second hand phones but the trend is changing slowly as people are accepting SE n motorola.......

i would suggest you to go for SE w850(if u want a music phone)
or SE K790(its got a 3.2MP camera its loaded wth nice features
both these phones are available between 17k-19K...plz do ur own reaserch in the market, i'l tell by tomoro....

No,No I don't require my phone for viewning word,excel files;my laptop serves that purpose.Thanks,sariq.Then I will settle for a decent SE phone.Can someone please compare the best amongst these 3 phones.
SE W700I/W800i/K 750i.
Which will be the best buy & please quote the prices of all 3.

WHo said its not a JAVA phone. Dude Java available even in phones which cost as less as 4k. AND multitasking is not limited to just symbian phones. Even SE w850i can multitask.

^^ K750i-9.5k (64mb card), W700i-11.5k (256mb card), W800i-discontinued, W810i-14k (512mb card).
Out of these, i'll suggest you go for W810i.

@Soham SE W810i can multitask but only in a limited way.U can run 2 apps max at a time out of which one must be the music player.Dis is not the case wit Nokia Symbian fones.consider thefollowing nokia fones:5300,5500,6270,6233,N73 ME.

6270 & 6233 are not symbian phones. following are some characteristics of symbian phones:

1. heavy >110g
2. big in size
3. slower in operation

@sariq I know dat 6233 and 6270 r based on s40 3rd edition,but i suggested those 2 fones cuz dey have gr8 sound quality.
And who said all s60 fones r bulky and slow in operation.try out the nokia 5500,its the smallest s60 fone u'll ever get.

Just type K750i with google and read each and every post there, you will change your mind.

I also plan to buy K750i but my mobile tech friend warn me and I drop the idea.

SE phones have delicate jotstick unlike nokia's hard one. , if you will operate it hard like nokia phones, its going to problems. the force required to operate joystick is different in both phones. so it gives problem mostly for the persons shifting from nokia.

if you will operate it with the light force (dont think it to be nokia 6600) it will not give problem.

Today,SE W950i is The Best Music Mobile device without any doubt.It scores over N91 and iPod by a descent margin.
When we use headsets HPM-82 (with remote control) or HBH-DS970 (bluetooth stereo) unmatched quality of sound can be appreciated.

W800i @Rs.12000/- (+/- 500) without bill @ Mumbai

For Cam clearity K790i= 9500
For Best Music W850i= more than 18k

and if you want both in one phone go for W800i = 12000/-

it does have low volume .. that's the only downside of this phone .. but not that low ..there are many tricks to overcome this prob like increasing the volume of ur ringtone.. and etc ..

no .. i dont think the camera lens cover is loose .. cos i use it with protective plastic cover courtesy of which my phone survived several falls ..

with this cover on .. the lens cover prob wont arise ..

Whats the TRICK to increase ringtone volume as Max level of ringtone is not enough as per some users to get loud volume.

I don't like to put Plastic cover as it snatched Charm of your Phone, so "cover on" is possibel if I use phone without Plastic cover?

To increase the ringtone volume,just increase the volume of the whole track.
U may use Nero WaveEditor to increase the overall volume of the track.

I am using 750i for more than a year now :). Bought it on the fourth day on the launch in india . Since then never even thought of other replacement. My previous one was k700i. Just buy that w800 head phone and use it for superb music :).

At what cost you buy W800 headphone? is it original or Local? Which place you bought it?
