Battle of the Music Phones

[krazyfrog]

Why don't you add N91 8gb and W950i to your list. These are the best sounding music phones out there and can not only rival proper music players in terms of sound quality and features, but also in capacity of music they can store.

 

[gxsaurav]

Ok, doing that.

Isn't N91 8 GB phased out? with N93

 

[Pathik]

nope... n91 8GB is still available... no other nokia fone hs a hdd... all inc. n93 hav flash memory..

 

[gxsaurav]

Just read the W950i review on GSM Arena. Sony should make it the base for it's video Walkman infact, Take the same body, remove all "Phone features" which results in a big screen. Now, add to it a 2 MP camera, 4 GB is enough for starters, & a touchscreen nevigation. I guess I have a new Concept Video walkman in the works . A pure multimedia device, & due to exclusion of Phone features it will get slim further

This thread is for the discussion of Mobile phones only. Do not hack the thread with iPhone.

Oh, and the iPhone is not a mobile phone? LOL!

well u cant actually make a thread on music fones and leave iPhone out...

Exactly!

Oh plz, iPhone is a PMP but I don't want to bring that in here due to the attitude of Macboys all over, I hope you can understand

Yeah, we sure can!

The moment you point out a flaw in Apple products you are decalred a terrorist & Anti-Apple, you are bombarded with rants all over

Not when you post something sensible like Macs' lack of proper support for TV-tuner cards. But when you post something as idiotic as iPhone does not support the IMAP protocol or that it cannot connect to Microsoft Exchange server, you kind of deserve that kind of pwnage, don't you!

Anyway, this is the phone that is the proper contender for the music phone category, the one that has the best features of all these phones and that looks the coolest among these:

Apple iPhone

iPhone does not support connection with Exchange Server. i never said it doesn't support IMAP, I said it only supports yahoo IMAP, now tell me, what good is such IMAP support?

Yes, I know you said that and that is wrong. Completely wrong.

I posted this in another thread and am posting it again:

srya, your knowledge is really low. iPhone only supports Yahoo push mail, what about hotmail or a company's own mail server or even MS exchange server?

*img294.imageshack.us/img294/364/breakthroughinternetcomgl9.th.png

See the second line on the right column on the screen. Look at what it says:
"Any IMAP or POP3 email service"
Got it? I guess not. It means:
"Koi bhi IMAP ya POP3 email suvidha"

I am sorry I know only these two languages.

Now, have a look at this one:

*img172.imageshack.us/img172/9307/imapandpop3mr6.th.png

Now, look at the column in the middle. Steve is showing that it basically supports any email service that offers IMAP functionality and then uses Yahoo! Mail, Microsoft Exchange and .Mac Mail as examples.
Notice something? Yes, that is Microsoft Exchange, i.e. E-X-C-H-A-N-G-E.

Now, if I am the one whose "knowledge is really low", your must be pretty much non-existent.

I know you are a little slow, so here's a slight recap:

iPhone supports any ISP that offers IMAP service including, but not limited to, Microsoft Exchange.


I hope I won't have to spoon feed this again!

I am really sorry for falling to his level, but I just could not resist this time!

koolbluez, I never expected YOU to fall to his level.

N77 looks like a base version of Nokia phones. Only the larger screen gave away the higher number

My personal fav in Nokias is the N80 (ok... N73ME is another kool one). Based on the same look.. the N95'll b out soon.

I'm not against u... arya... the word just came out seein ur intense passion towards the macs! Me 2 am a Sony/SE fanatic, but never attacked or imposed onto others my "ideals" as a superior one. If I did that, then I 2 would've bordered onto pestism.

U go on attacking anything which remotely seems to compete against Apple or any of its products. Ur bigottedness towards the Malus domestica is quite conspicious here. Remember one thing, the more hard u hit a drum, the louder noise it produces. If u go on beating other products, their fanatics (& even lesser wanting mortals)'ll charge against u.

And about stoopin ↓levels... well, i just wanted u 2 hear me out, so I stooped. U heard me, right

 

[Pathik]

n80 isnt that good for music... n77me ll rock for sure...

Oh plz, iPhone is a PMP

Rubbish. Read the last five letters.

Your bias against the iPhone and/or Apple is painfully obvious, Saurav - more so than Arya's bias for it. An objective "Battle of the Music Phones" thread would include the iPhone whether you like it or not.

Is it so wrong for others to have opinions that differ from yours? Everyone will prefer a different phone. I have a thing against Nokias - I don't, however, condemn the world for using them. Learn to be a little open minded.

You talk about the thread being hijacked. Apart from the flame war (instigated by you after the iPhone post), I see only posts pertaining to the topic at hand. But no - at the very mention of Apple, you go raising alarms. Grow up.

Arya - you're not without blame either. You border on troll behavior too.


Edit:
Keep the discussion to the topic. I'll be deleting irrelevent posts, and any flames following this post will result in a permanent ban - complete with IP ban if you're on a fixed IP.

And everyone, remember this statement: Don't Feed The Troll.

@ fatbeing

iPhone might be what u say it is, but I refused to include it here cos I know & everyone else does how Macboys act, you can yourself see from arya's first post how he is acting.

The problem with Apple is not there hardware or OS, it the attitude of Macboys & Apple towards the users of Other devices & products. Everyone knows how arya acts whenever somone points out a flaw in any of Apple product

 

[mehulved]

It's not whether you think iPhone is a music phone or not. It's what it is supposed to be. Even if it's not a music phone but still others believe it is. World doesn't revolve around you.

The only reason i excluded iPhone was the attitude of Macboys.

 

[krazyfrog]

^^ Well by excluding iPhone, you actually invited 'macboys' to come and show you their attitudes!
__________
Btw you should also add N95 to the list. Its got 3.5 mm slot on the phone and also dedicated music keys. I think thats enough for it to be called a music phone.

 

[Pathik]

come back to the fones discussion guys.. ..

 

[aryayush]

The only reason i excluded iPhone was the attitude of Macboys.

FatBeing did point out who started the flame war.

Anyway, please return to the topic. I, of course, think the iPhone is the best music phone among these. Which one do you guys prefer?

 

[Pathik]

i m all 4 the n77me

N95 is good, but not a dedicated Music Phone, that is what I m trying to discuss here. I m also going to add the Nokia express music edition 5300

 

[~Phenom~]

I will love to own an Apple iPhone. How much it costs in india ???

 

[Pathik]

it shd be around 30-35k..
