User Submitted Sony Ericsson P990i Unlocked Cell Phone with 2 MP Camera, 3G, MP3/Video Player, Memory Stick Pro Duo Slot--International Version with No Warranty (Premium Silver) Reviews (cont...)Date: 2006-12-05 LOVE IT I love this phone. I've wanted a p-series phone for like 4 years now and once i got enough money, i bought it from amazon. Before buying it, i read all the negative and positive reviews about it on this and like 10 other websited. i made myself research for like a month on the phone because i dont just want to waist 600+ dollars on a phone that turns out like crap. But i went for it anyways and it turned out great. It is very easy to use for a pda. Before this i had a sidekick 3. After the sk3 i bought a t-mobile mda, but returned it because it was too confusing. That was my biggest fear buying the p990, but it proved me wrong. I also have NOT been experiencing and random shut-downs or long wait times. It's actually alot faster than my sk3! The screen resoulution is outstanding for a touch screen. the camera is awsome and i love that it doubles as a flash light. The buisness card reader ACTUALLY WORKS! I tested it with a buisness card with a website, e-mail, phone, name, and company name and the damn thing read everything and saved it in the phone book flawlessly. Wi-fi works great too. I connected to my Hotspots account and the phone performed great. 3G is kinda usless for me right now scince t-mobile dosent offer 3g, BUT! i just read that t-mobile just signed an FCC contract to roll out a 3G network in 07!!! So the video phone with soon come very handy. Overall, its the best phone ive had yet. Great look, intuitivness, and sound quality. It truly is THEE PDA Killer. Date: 2006-11-28 Great Item This phone is amazing, the amount of things it can do,The camera is Wicked,the WLAN works amazing, everything is great, the only complaint i have is the slow OS, it is noticably slow from say the p900, but they tried to fit soo much into it, i can understand why. still a great phone and id reccomend it Date: 2006-11-19 It does not work I have been using it now for 5 days and I can not believe that Sony Ericsson would release a device that does not work. The phone crashes pretty much every time you try to get connect to the data network (forget about using WiFi throught more than 4 web pages). And yes I do have the latest versio of the software. It takes more than 1 minute to boot this thing up. All applications load with a good 1-2 seconds delay, actually the software on this device is amasingly slow. It is very hard to switch to a speakerphone during a phone call. Email software is really slow and hard to use. It takes 2-3 clicks to tell your email program to go download new messages. Good luck trying to make ActiveSync work - please tell me how if you ever succeed. It does not run Good Technology or a Blackberry software so if you want realtime access to your email - you won't get it. I am not sure who the target market for a device like this is and still quite shocked that Sony Ericsson would release something that is this bad. Date: 2006-11-18 A complete device. Got this phone after a series of combinations of phones, pdas and phone / pda combos tried and tested over the period of past couple of years. (O2 Xda II, I-mate Jam, Nokia N90, Nokia N80 - just to name a few). As I had read the reviews stating software problems and bugs the first thing that I did was to load the SE PC software in my computer and then hooked up the phone for a software upgrade. The process takes a bit of time but its pretty automated and even someone with basic computing / IT skills can do it easily. I have used the phone now for over a month after updating the software and have tried out each and everything, like working with multiple applications at a time, playing games while taking calls and so and so forth. There have been not lags, no crashes, no restarts! Its working great. Everyone knows about the features this baby has. For me screen crispness and resolution is also very important. My last gadget was SE K800i. Although the screen sharpness of P990 does NOT match up with K800i but it is not far behind as well. In my opinion, P990i is the best phone / PDA combo on the market right now. Very neatly designed (like its predecessors) for heavy phone / SMS users and for serious PDA users as well. Very well balanced, extremely feature rich, good form factor, nice screen, great connectivity options (WiFi, Bluetooth etc). If you are out for a combination device, look no further. Date: 2006-11-15 One of the worst phone i ever used i change my phone every 2 month so i ve tried a lot of phones and this is by far one of the worst. it freezes.. restarts for no reason.. applications crashes.. and when you call a computer service line.. e.g. when you call customer service and you have to choose different options.. the phone doesnt register that the line is connected and on the screen is just says dialing and it wouldnt let you choose any options..
