Some Custom Reviews:
- The Sony Ericsson P1i was an absolute joy to use and scored highly in most of my tests. The highlight features for me include the large, touch screen LCD display, tidy 3.2mpx digital camera, QWERTY keyboard, Memory Stick Micro support, and wide range of connectivity options.
The M600i-like design of the P1i makes it much less bulky than previous P-series handsets, which were infamous for their size. The handset not only looks a lot cleaner but also weighs less and is much less obtrusive when sitting in your pocket.
The P1i is a well- rounded smartphone, which encompasses a wide range of consumers in the high-end market. The P1i will be available very shortly and will retail for around $800-900. (From www.imobile.com.au).
What I like:
- four times more free RAM memory providing true multitasking, improving stability and performance
- 3.2 Megapixel camera producting quality still shots
- support for plugins on the Activity screen
- improved transflective display
- Bluetooth 2.0 EDR
- high quality build, elegant design
- higher capacity battery
- improved multimedia playback volume
- broad range of additional applications to be available when the device starts shipping.
What I don’t like:
- video quality should be improved
- WLAN 802.11g support would be a warmly welcome addition
- no HSDPA and EDGE
- people upgrading from P990 may be missing its larger 2.8″ display
- booting the system takes too long: almost 3 times longer than S60 3rd Edition phones
- no built-in GPS.
