  Whoa, this phone really cool and beautiful!
  
  Does anyone know how much it sells in Singapore? Also, is there any shop in Singapore where you can get the wildest, best and cheapest deals for such cellphones?
  
  Thanks,
  Nikar.

  I'm holding Ericsson T630 right now. So far I've been a very satisfied user of this phone.
  
  You might want to try buying it at Carrefour. It costs $248 there w/o contract if I remember correctly. That's the lowest price you can find - other places offer it for $300++.

  Thanks a lot, guys!
  Yeah, I think the cheapest is S$248.
  
  1) I also heard there's some problems regarding lagging. Like you press the buttons and it takes 1/2 a second before there's a response from the phone?
  
  2) Also, can this phone play MP3 songs?(not ringtones, but MP3 songs that I downloaded)
  
  3) Lastly, can we like trade-in an older phone for the T630 so that we can get some further discount?
  
  Thanks guys!

  see my post above......about k750i

  thanks FireIce! But my phone of interest is the k700i, not k750i! :p
  Anyway, I saw the ad about the k700i phone today on Straits Times, and it costs around S$468 w/o contract.
  
  I better stick to the T630.
  
  By the way, between Motorola, Sony Ericsson, Nokia and Samsung, who produces the best phones, in general?
  
  Thanks all!

  Thanks, but anyone know of Sony Ericsson k500i? Looks pretty cool to me.
  Compared with the T630, it's considered super, right?
  
  Thanks!

  i still love my T610. especially since i can use it's bluetooth to hook up with my computer and use it as a remote control for my video, mp3s and blahblahblah. Yeah it does lag, that the major drawback of the phone... mine's still going well, no problems at all. SE rocks

  By the way, TomSS....regarding the lag of the T610 and T630, is it as bad as they say? What is the lag time like? Like you press number 1 on the keypad and it takes 1 second(or more) for the thing to appear on screen?
  
  Thanks!

  Nah, Nokia phones all very ugly. Sony Ericsson got a lot more class. Those Nokia models all look like those from the year 1998/pre-2000.

  Last I checked at SLS, K700i is selling for $320. The cheapest quoted price I've come across for a brand-new K700i so far.
  
  Off-topic: Anyone came across brand-new N7270 cheaper than $550 w/o contract?

  Nokia phones r built that in a way they r more durable than other brands...like if u drop it, it wont spoil unlike other brand that may spoil...im looking for a clamshell hp to replace my 6260 when my contract expire and i have this hps in mind..
  
  Nokia 7270 (which my cousin who is working in a hp shop say no good)
  SE Z800 ( which my classmate say no good)
  
  or other hp that may suit me...advices is appreciated....

  if u eyeing k700i, i would advise u to spend a little more and get the k750i
  
  k750i got memory slot and better camera
  
  considering the rapid drop in prices of SE fones......no point getting a k700i now.....
