CNET Asia Review
Excellent
The good: Good image quality; RoadSync for synchronizing with Exchange server; large, vibrant touchscreen; Xenon and LED flashes; great Web browser; bundled Wisepilot navigation software; 8GB microSDHC card. 8
out of 10View score
The bad: Proprietary audio/PC connector; no bundled 3.5mm adapter; inconsistent S60 5th edition user interface.
The bottom line: The Satio delivers great pictures and comes with many high-end features, but the inconsistent user interface of the platform mars the overall experience of the device.

Disappointed with SE Touch phone
Oct 30, 2009Rating: 4 out of 10 (Mediocre)
Pros: Camera, Video, nice big screen
Cons: Lagging software
Opinion:
I got this phone and have been trying it for a few days and have decided to sell it off. The software lags everytime you go into the menu, software is also inconsistent, sometimes you need to double tap and sometimes one tap. Touch screen is not smooth as it is using resistive touch screen. When texting, the qwerty keyboard is so small that there is no way you can type without errors. You can text by handwriting recognition but you need to use a stylus or fingernails. The Wifi connection is iffy, most times it disconnect by itself and use the GPRS network. Quite hard to set up on your own if you switch to different telco. I am a big fan of SE but besides the excellent video and camera, this is a miss. I am using an Aino now, till their touch screen phones gets better.
Did i buy a Camera with additional phone feature???

Pros: Everything
Cons: None - As of Now - Yet ! ! !
Opinion:
Frankly, this aint a phone. Its a camera with touchscreen, walkman series and a phone and wi-fi. Dont get me wrong. I aint a serious photographer. I shelled out 30K INR to buy this on first day.
As of me, i thought 12MP is just too much for me in a phone. I had N82 (5MP) which i felt was more than enough, yet this tech buzz made me to buy. I ponder why i bought this.
Battery lasts few hours if you use more camera and wifi which i felt is worthy enough. I dont see much difference with my N82.
SE freaks may adore it. I see a difference with others. Just that 12MP and touch screen would freak out many.

PS: I have shifted to Nokia 1100 (Yes, old model) with my iPod touch and SE camera. They Rox. Price is the same when compared to this ... Read more
