looking to get 7710

3 replies · 1,919 views · Started 11 June 2005

Hi can anyone help I keep looking around for the 7710 and it�s only available on vodaphone.
Can you get it on O2?
Is it compatible with O2 if I buy a sim free phone?
Do you think it�s up to the job compared to say a p900?
What is it best at?

I would greatly appreciate feed back before I go and buy one?

ph236 :hmmmm:

Iy can be got sim free for around �399 (or cheaper on e-bay). It has worked with no problems with my o2 sim and my t-mobile sim. But you will have to get the settings sent to your phone, but it's easily done.

I also have a p910 and i can make thew following observation. They are both good phones and do similar things but in my opinion the Nokia has the better scope once developers have come to terms with it.

As for screen quality then the nokia knocks the spots off the sony. BUT if you want all the good software NOW then it will have to be the sony as it's been around longer.

thanks toondw for the help.

how do i get the settings sent to my phone?

do you find that the battery life is as good or better than the p900?

i would like to move over to the 7710 but realy wanted to try and get the price down by getting a good line and call package.

cheers

Sorry about delay i've been away. The settings can be obtained from the relevant website of your network. The battery is fine, not as good as the p910 but good enough for a couple of days heavy use.

As for the package obviously the more expensive the package the less expensive the phone. I bought mine sim free so was expensive
