When I used to hear from SE fanboys that SE is the best and all that, I never pay heed to there talks and just used to think in my mind that SE rocks only in the dumb phone(Non-Smartphone) segment due to the capabilites of modding that SE phones have.
SE Symbian UIQ was not something better than Symbian 9.x series but yea they were good but still Symbian 9.x is the best. I always wanted Symbian 9.x in SE, as the dumb designers in Nokia were never able to impress me with there phone design even if the phone cost 30k, SE 15k phone beats the Nokia Phone in looks, And I am one of those person who wants Features + Design.
When SE announced SE Satio, I just went to gsmarena and had a look at the specs, My mind got boggled by the Specs, So amazing specs that I can’t even tell how much I was impressed with SE and the design and form factor was so good that it was looking like a real eye candy.
The Pros of the phone are so much just have a look below
Pros
- 16M colors (Finally by SE)
- Accelerometer sensor
- 12 MP, 4000 x 3000 pixels, autofocus, xenon flash, video LED flash
- Symbian Series 60, 5th edition
- ARM Cortex-A8 600 MHz processor
- 3D Graphics HW Accelerator
- Gps Receiver
- Wi-Fi 802.11 b/g, DLNA
Cons
- The Worst Thing = Keypad is not there (Atleast it should have a qwerty)
- Less battery for the features it offers
- Price ( I Don’t have idea about price but I am damn sure it will cost a leg for this phone, as SE have always overpriced there phones.) (unconfirmed)
I don’t think the cons are much, this phone will kick a$$ for sure, this is a premium phone with all features, very good looks and everything. I will be so much happy to get this beauty as I think it is like the N95 (when it was launched) one of the best phones by Nokia. This beyond good phone will be available from october(unconfirmed, telling from private sources. I would try to buy this phone at launch.

Many a times when you urgently need to do some work with any of your mobile software and it’s version expires, and it does not let you use it without updating, You get pissed off atleast I get pissed of when it happens. So i figured out a trick on how to use the software even if the version of it expires.
Well there are ways to still use the software without updating to the latest version, Though updating it to the latest version will be a better choice but at urgent times you don’t want to update softwares so you can use this simple trick.
The trick is making some changes to the Date of the phone, like if the software expired on 20/06/2009 means it used to work before 20th you can just change the date to 19 and the software will start working again.
The trick is simple but effective. I have used the trick with LCG Slick it will work fine on many other softwares too.

Well there are times when you take a memorable picture of a person or anything else and the picture does not comes out to be very good, Then you can always enhance the image by using many tools. Same is the case with you camera phone, When you take a picture of someone and it does not comes out to be very good then you can always edit it to enhance the presence of the image.
I have been using Samsung Sgh-I450 from quite some days and as you all know it is not a camera phone and its images most of the times turns out to be bad, so I was always in search of an application that can enhance the presence of image. I tried a handful of application and when I was not satisfied I dropped the search for it.
One day when I was using Resco Photo Viewer I noticed an option there that plays with the colors of the images, I found it to be quite good and after using it for couple of mine photos I understood that it was exactly what I was looking for. If you remember N73 then you all must know that it takes pictures that have a wow effect many a times, I wanted that same effect in my images so I used Resco Photo Viewer colors option to improve my images.
Look at the image in resco photo viewer
Let’s have a look of Resco Photo Viewer Colors View of the image.
Now you can edit the colors by using the many of the options available
See the last image it turned out to be better than the default one, This was what I wanted, you can always do that with your Resco Photo Viewer, it just rocks.

Well I just love to test everything available on the net for my mobile so I recently downloaded this wonderful java mobile web browser. This java Mobile web browser has got everything a person needs in a mobile browser. I have been using this browser from quite sometime as my default web browser. It perfectly loads any website as you see in PC. I found this web browser to be better than Opera Mini too in some factors.
As you can see, It perfectly loads any page but there is a glitch in the software that it never displays me the text written in Google Search buttons in other pages of google it works fine though.
When you click on the menu button located on the left hand side in the software a bunch of options pops up. Just have a look below at the screenshot.
As you can see the options pretty much sums up the essential features of the mobile browser there are other options too while viewing a webpage just have a look below.
The browser works pretty well in landscape mode too. And the browser even supports tabbed browsing. You can switch tabs via pressing the 7 key.
This java mobile browser is completely free for any one to download and yea this browser uses very less amount of ram but does not compromise on quality. This browser connects to the access point every time unlike many other browsers.
I just love this browser and my conclusion is you should all give this browser a try, You can download the browser at www.teashark.com
Browser Rating: 4/5

Well sometimes it becomes pain in your a$$ when you have a music phone of whose loudness is not upto the mark just like Samsung I450. Though the phone is a music phone but the sound via earphone is less. Well I did lot of R & D with the phone but found no method to increase the sound.
I tried 5-6 music players too but they all had the some problem and I ended up with that low sound. But still I have finally figured out a way to make the phone sound comprimising only a little on the Sound quality still what use is sound quality when you are getting pissed of due to phone loudness.
The trick was to install PowerMp3 player for S60.
When you did that run the player
Then go to Options > Settings > Preferences
Select the Audio Tab
Then move the Preamp slider to amount shown in the figure for best SQ in Samsung I450.
Now play your music via using this player. Set a shortcut to access this player too for your convenience. Well you can adjust the preamp to the level you need but remember the more you will drag it the more you will have too compromise on the SQ.

Introduction
Well I have been using this great phone for quite some days and I am just loving this great phone. This phone feels great in hand, having dimensions of 107 x 47 x 12.5 mm and screen size of 2.2inch having qvga display with 256k colors.
Camera and it’s Features
Though this phone has been said to be a CyberShot but I did not found it’s camera to be very good not of the same quality as my old N73 and k790i. The phone has some problem with the camera when you snap a photo in low light situations it blackens them very much. The camera Features includes Smile Shutter, Panorama, Face detection they work quite well. Day light pics are Great comparable to K790i standards. I think future updates will solve the blacking up of photos.
Gaming, Keypad and Battery life
The phone also has Auto Rotation and Motion Gaming they work very well. I was missing that bowling game which was present in F305 of my friend. Keypad of the phone works great, The layout of the keypad is also great. The battery life of the phone is Good. Works for 2 days on medium brightness with 5 hours of music and other normal functions.
Sound Quality,User Interface and Media Center
Sound quality of the phone is good. I changed the default acoustics of the phone using a2uploader with better ones and the phone is sounding just great. UI of sony ericsson is very user friendly so is the case with C510. There is also a media center in the phone that works very well. Youtube is there in the media center so you can watch youtube videos on the phone.
Browsing, Java and Connectivity
Browsing on the phone is great but still I prefer symbian, windows phone for internet usage. For a average lurker the browser is great. Java games and applications works very well in the phone support of multi tasking makes them better. Connectivity includes Bluetooth, USB they work flawlessly.
Conclusion
For a price tag of 10k this phone is seriously the best offering for a non-smartphone. I have been using this phone from many days and I just love this phone more than my Symbian phones even. The Sound Quality and Camera of the phone is great and future updates will make it much better. The looks of the phone are also great and have the best looks at that price tag. If you are looking for a phone with no hiccups then you should got this phone without any doubt in your mind.

I8510 Innov8 was launched in July 2008. It’s the flagship model of Samsung featuring a vast no. of features. Priced at around $700 (Around 40k in INR). This phone has been certified the best 8MP cam phone by Gsmarena Test. This phone even has one of best SQ in mobile phones. Though it is a 10 months old phone still it is one of the industry leading phone.
On the other hand
N86 8MP is set to roll out in Q2 of 2009. It is the first 8MP phone by Nokia. I think they were forced to make it under pressure from other cell phone manufacturers as others have already launched there 8MP phones a year back. Whatever, hate it or love it! N86 8MP is one of the best phone by Nokia. As stated in the press release by Nokia it must cost around 375euro so we can expect indian prices to be under 30k.
I8510 Innov8 vs N86 8MP
Screen: Samsung Innov8 screen size is 2.8inches normal TFT and Nokia N86 8MP screen size is 2.6inches AMOLED. Bigger Screen size ads to more style and it is one of the best 2.8 inch screen phone having great brightness and contrast levels. I prefer Samsung Innov8 display over the Nokia N86 one. Though AMOLED has it’s own benefit but still i prefer the Samsung one.
Looks: Innov8 wins over the Nokia n86 8MP looks. I really feel Nokia should hire better phone designers. Nokia N86 fronts looks looks crap to me back looks is kind of ok. Innov8 on the other hands looks damn cool from both sides.
Camera: Nokia N86 8MP Camera samples are yet to find there way on net and I am sure it will beat the Innov8 camera. Till then Innov8 is the clear winner in 8MP camera phones having Geo-tagging, face, smile and blink detection, image stabilization, wide dynamic range on the other hand Nokia N86 8MP has Variable apperture, geotagging, dual LED, wide 28mm Carl zeiss Lens.
Sound Quality: Till now Innov8 is having one of the best SQ in mobile phones don’t know much about how the N86 8MP SQ is going to be but be sure that it will be better than N96 and will be by par the Innov8.
Video Recording: Both phones have Dvd picture like recording quality VGA @ 30 fps. The innov8 even support slow motion video recording in qvga format ( qvga @ 120 fps ).
Other Features:
Nokia N86 8MP: FM transmitter, Dual Slide with Dedicated music/gallery keys,Class 32 edge and gprs, faster processing with 434 mhz processor,kickstand.
Samsung I8510 Innov8: Accelerometer sensor for auto-rotate, Optical trackpad, Digital Natural Sound Engine, Divx player pre-installed.
Conclusion: Though Samsung Innov8 maybe one of the best phone by Samsung. It does not beat the Nokia N86 8MP. Both the phones are on par with each other in features. The screen size may favour the Innov8 but some will find Fm transmitter more appealing. Some will find optical trackpad to be rocking and some will find the Dedicated music/gallery keys to be. The Price will be the deciding factor now. If somehow Nokia N86 8Mp is priced around 30k then I will find it much better choice over the I8510. I8510 on the other hand looks like a premium phone and Nokia one looks like a cheapo phone made out of plastic but maybe it must look better in hand then in pics. So I consider both the phones to be on par with each other. Price gap will surely be the deciding factor now.
