ANYONE PLEASE HELP ME>?

[bavlondon]

Hi, who knows what future phone are coming to three. Nokia n series? LG 8210, SEZ800? Give us oem clues please

[davis]

I would love to know as well. It is a shame there isn't a "coming soon" section on the website like Orange have now got.

[Lilisider]

Hi guys word is that the latest handset are LG8330 and C975TYAX

[bavlondon]

What are the specs of the LG.

[Lilisider]

I have to get back to you on the specs. of the 8330. I just noticed it on the system this morning.

[bavlondon]

Ive seen the specs there rubbish. Whats the deal with LG. Why do they have so many problems keeping up with technology. Why can they just go witjh the nokias. Your said an LG was planned that had 2MP/BT/memory card slot?


I think someone were telling porky pies.

[Lilisider]

Ok I wasnt telling a complete lack of pies. We are getting the 8330 in blue or sliver. but the spec isnt that great. NO bt, no mp cam, or mem card

[bavlondon]

You should tell three to scrap ALL of its NEC and LG handsets cos they suck. And if any of the executives at three head office have more than 2 braincells left tell them to bring out some of the Nokia N range handsets. We know they will work becasue th3 6630,6680 and 7600 all work fine on the network. THOSE are real phone, not those cheap blocks of scrap metal that go faulty after a few days. I have to say tarrifs aside, three have done nothing but upset customer after customer. Its bad enough that your CS reps cant help us when we need it but you give us a rubbish range of handsets. I mean Voda have had the Sharp 902 for months now and were still stuck on the 1.3MP 6630. Your all pants.

[Lilisider]

You've got a knack for stating the obvious... The obvious fact that you've spat ur dummy over a piece of plastic and metal, which you've paying naff all for.

Maybe if 3 charged 5 times the amount they currently charge for the services, and didnt offer any decent handsets for free, like voda do, then maybe wed be more inline with their technology.

Im assuming that if three brought out the N series handsets tomorrow, and charged 200 quid for them (not unrealistic with the hard drive one and the carl zeiss camera one, they are both very expensive tech) you'd be right back to complain about 3 "ripping people off" again.

Wake up and smell the roses, you get a cheap mobile deal, so your not going to get the latest handsets for nothing. If it truly bothers you that much then go out and change network or get a sim free 3G mobile and put it on 3. Dont have a go at people on this forum that are a valuable source of information and help.

[bavlondon]

But i dont want a cheap mobile deal. I and manybother people are im sure more than happy to pay £250 for a top of the class handset. Three were goign in the right direction when they allowed the 6630/80 in theoir network. But i just hop that the N90 will make it on also.

[George]

You might be better advised not to go with three then. Three basically run their network with the budget user in mind, people that are willing to put up with a dodgy service for cheap calls and the like.

If your willing to spend more money, youd be better off switching to vodaphone or another more reputable network as they offer a much better service and will be more likely to offer better handsets, albeit at a cost.

Its a simple case of you get what you pay for. If the N90 does come out on three, and im not overly convined that it will, then they are going to be looking at huge amounts of money for it. The lens used it in alone costs more than your average phone.

Three can only ofer handsets which they can afford to offer at the silly prices they do, whereas other networks charge much more realistic prices for their handsets and get better phones. Its a trade off, and three wont change their position, so youll have to change your network.

[bavlondon]

Well the 6630 and 6680 came out so im guessing theres a chance. I spoke to carphone warehouse today and he said that they will be doing it. Its gonna be a case of pay £100 and then £30-£35 a month. But there doing it. Three will probabaly bring it out latr in he year like they also did with the 6630/6680

[George]

The 6380/6680 are toys in comparison to this baby, its going to be at least 150% of their price.

But we will have to wait and see I guess, I think it would be hard for three to do this phone for only 100 squid. They were charging similar prices at the launch of the 6680 and thats a much cheaper phone.

[ictus]

I may have missed it, but no one seems to have mentioned the Sony Ericcson 600i (or was it 700) due in mid August.

I've had a play with it and it's a very nice phone, only problem is it hasn't got expandable memory, after that it is perfect

Small, well built high spec, excelent piece of kit

[BenTate]

Just a thought, but wouldn't it make more sense for 3 to get reliable handsets out to people in the long run? I've got an 8120, and am due to receive an E1000 tomorrow, with no obligation to spend more than the 3x £15 and 9x £30 I signed up to in the first place. Lots of other people are in the same position (presumably everyone with an 8120). In reality, the 8120 will be costing them a lot of money, and my experience with the E1000 will have to reverse the impression created by the 8120 if I am to stay with them. Also, if your phones are reliable, you can downsize your CS department due to less phone calls from people with broken phones. And in all honesty, Nokia phones have lasted better than any Motorola, Ericsson or LG myself or anyone in my family has used.

[bavlondon]

BIG NEWS. The Nokia n90 will be availabale on three. Yipeeee.....

[johnlo]
