configure Veteran Posted April 9, 2002 Veteran Share Posted April 9, 2002 I'll go for 8310, how can I resist the custom logo, ringtones that are floating around and use Ericcson instead? :D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tomwarren Veteran Posted April 9, 2002 Veteran Share Posted April 9, 2002 duhh 8310 :) I got one and they rock Got FM Radio which is the BEST feature :) hehe Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hackr86 Posted April 9, 2002 Share Posted April 9, 2002 8310 all the way...or the 8390 as we call it in canada/north america :p Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Killa-b Posted April 9, 2002 Share Posted April 9, 2002 WOW, its clear no one knows what the T68 is, and for our american friends the 8310 is the same as the 8390. i own a T68 and have used the 8390 and the T68 is WORLDS better. even if you put the COLOR out fo the equation, there is still BLUETOOTH, IRDA, Outlook sync, way bettter accessories, wireless headsets, etc. the 8310 is garbage, its nokia's first (NA) wap phone, its just a 8290 with wap and gprs. get serious there phones have NOTHING in common and the T68 from a features stand point is way way way better. a better compare would be the Nokia 7210 (the new color with bluetooth) vs T68, or an 8310 VS moto V60 (same feature set) or something but come now, this is just silly. the RF of each phone is about the same, as is voice quality, so it comes to features, and if we are blind to price there is no question, i think all you 8310 owners above must educate your selves.

tomwarren Veteran Posted April 9, 2002 Veteran Share Posted April 9, 2002 but Damn the T68 looks fcking horrible!! look vs Hmm wot looks better...LOL Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
masterbug Posted April 9, 2002 Share Posted April 9, 2002 I like the ericsson, above the nokia. I hope for all the nokia fans that nokia modified the displays and did a good job on it, (the displays disapeared for NO reason) otherwise you can go back to the shop,they send it somewhere and after a few weeks you get your phone back. LOL I myself have the pda phone 380 and I love it, never heard of any problems. I would definitely go for the ericsson!!!!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bboyroe Posted April 9, 2002 Share Posted April 9, 2002 I have both phones, i had the 8310 first and now since i bought my t68 last month and since then i could not imagine using the 8310 again. The ericsson is sooooo much nicer. Will probably sell my 8310 now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Toxicfume Veteran Posted April 9, 2002 Veteran Share Posted April 9, 2002 I'd go for nokia ...just loast a 3310 recently, gonna get a 8210 soon Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kusanagi Posted April 9, 2002 Share Posted April 9, 2002 I have myself the 8260, and I kinda like it. When 83xx (8360?) gets released around here I might upgrade... it looks better... been thinking about the motorola v60 for a bit Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hackr86 Posted April 9, 2002 Share Posted April 9, 2002 the only difference between the 8310 and the 8390 is: 8310 = EGSM 900/1900 8390 = GSM 1800/1900 i think...meh. but ya, egsm and gsm are the differences. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Killa-b Posted April 9, 2002 Share Posted April 9, 2002 no egsm and gsm are the same the ony difference is that 8310=900/1800 8390=1900 there could be another North American Band on the 8390 but i best its sim locked. the T68 loock much nicer in person, none of the photos do it any good, the colors are no accurate. what about the "new" HAHA T68i?

hackr86 Posted April 9, 2002 Share Posted April 9, 2002 dude, EGSM and GSM aren't the same...thats the reason why the '3310' series phones are only released in europe and not in North america EGSM...the E stands for europe and such...since europe's frequencies were getting jammed...they created a new frequency...EGSM...which is 10 MHz higher than before in order to relieve the congestion.

hackr86 Posted April 9, 2002 Share Posted April 9, 2002 the 900/1800 represent the frequency difference between the 2... compared to 1900 for north america. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Killa-b Posted April 13, 2002 Share Posted April 13, 2002 man a free trade for a T68, dude go for it, the T68 is worth a lot more then the 8310, it has more features, and is about the same size, and longer talk time. the looks is a personal pref thing, but no one can dispute the features, and the color, etc. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Steve Posted April 15, 2002 Author Share Posted April 15, 2002 ...Well, i Just Switched 2nite! ... Just Got the T68 a Couple of Hr's ago! ... and i Love it! ... i Personally like the Look! :D ... Oh, and the Bluetooth "Blue" Light is Realy funky! ...Changing the "Desktop" (hehe) Background is Cool! ... The Time, Displayed on a Idle is a Great "extra" ... OK, so the Ringtones Suck . .. but there's a LOT on there, which is REALLY COOL! ... If there's any1 else, with the Proposition of a T68 or a 8310 (or simular!) Go with most guys here, and me! .... T68 For Sure! ... NeYo PS. My mates kinda annoyed ... i have battleships, on mine, and he Don't?! ... is mine Simply "newer" or something?! ... can his Fone be updated somehow?! ...
