I don't like L.G & Samsung because...

1) They don't have a good OS. But this is changing now as L.G is going to use Windows Mobile while Samsung is using Symbian & Windows Mobile.

2) They lack a PC connectivity software like Sony Ericsson PC suite or Nokia PC Suite. This isn't a problem with Windows Mobile phone though from these manufacturers.

LG Arena seems something new...a new OS

They have Samsung PC studio for Symbian & SHP models also.

Samsung has strong hold in Europe and Korean markets. Samsung's windows mobiles were sold like anything last year though their symbian counterparts weren't so successful.

Both these companies offer poor after sales service atleast in asia-pacific region which is a major setback.

LG for example have a market share of 24% overall in India. But that includes both CDMA and gsm. And in gsm they only have about 3%.

For me its call quality ans os. As per my experience samsung have very bad voice quality . I have no experience in high end lg gsm gsm phone . But my friend had a lg "car style" folding phone. It was so horrible .

Also i find great value in nokia phone. I once considered samsung i450. But after comparing with n81 i realizee nokia offers so much more for a little extra money.

But i think the condition might change with android though. I am really looking forward for android phone from low end manufacrurer

LG's battery backup sucks...I have used a couple of mobiles of LG and the battery backup was just not up 2 the mark..

Nokia's are VFM..I prefer only Nokia or a SE..

The PC Suite for SE Phones is just crap.

When you connect in Phone Mode, there are only two options.
1) Synchronize
2) PC Settings

And in Data Transfer mode, you've got three options
1) Quicktime
2) Disk2Phone
3)Adobe Photosmart

And all these three again have to be installed separately.
I don't see any real use of it.....

But if you consider Nokia, There is so much you can do like image/video/music transfer, Backup the phone
Sync the contacts etc......

Never used LG/Samsung, neither do I know anyone who uses them... So can't comment about the connectivity options.

WTF!! With phone explorer you can backup ur sms, ur contacts, ur recent call history..evrything. It recognizes the phone as a external memory drive and you can simply copy paste whatever you want inside the phone.

This is what I found, when I installed SE PC Suite and there are no additional options coming up when I connect a phone.
