nomis_nehc Posted July 27, 2002 Share Posted July 27, 2002 get T68i. I got it exactly a week ago. I am biased. lol ;) simply put though, I can't see a competition here, let me lay out some specs/comparison for you: 1. t68i is triband, 8310 is not 2. t68i has 1MB dynamic memory system, 8310 is set memory 3. t68i has color (256, not true color, but better than none) 4. t68i uses joystick navigation (somewhat cool, but needs getting used to) 5. t68i has picture phone book 6. t68i has bluetooth 7. t68i uses the newest WAP v2 standard, includes xHTML browser 8. t68i has mms and ems 9. t68i has profiles 10. t68i supports high speed transfer between devices 11. t68i has themes 12. as for stand by time, rated: t68i: stand by= up to 300 hours talk time= up to 11 hours 8310: stand by= 100-400 hours talk time= 4 hours I should note that t68i uses the newest type of battery, Lithium Polymer, which recharges extremely quickly and has a long lifespan. (it can use Lithium Ion, but Polymer is best of course) (oh ya, I didn't state other specs that both phone has, figured it's not much of argument comparing both of same feature) lastly, the only thing I think 8310 beats the t68i is the Xpress-On covers... but heh... I wouldn't use it :p Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Steve Posted July 28, 2002 Share Posted July 28, 2002 hehe! i Own an Ericsson T68, shamefully not a T68i, but hey, I've most of that Crap nomis_nehc mentioned!! :D I'm Looking to OS 10.2 So i can Sync my fone with iSync Via Bluetooth! thats Cool! I DID Own a 8310, previous 2 me getting this fone, and the 8310 is a Good Fone, and i miss the Predictive text of the 8310! (the T68 Does Suck @ Predictive text, in comparison to the 8310!!!) ... But the txt input is ALL that i miss, overall, i prefer my T68! its the 1st Ericsson i'd used, that Worked properly! lol, those Older models Sucked by Nokia's Software Comparison! So, If u want either the T68 or T68i, U've got BOTH mine and nomis_nehc's Approval, that it Kicks the 8310's Butt!!! NeYo PS. Snowboarding was kinda cool, on the 8310, but instead, i play 2 player battleship across a Dull Lecture, using that Good Ol' Bluetooth!!! hehehe! :D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nomis_nehc Posted July 28, 2002 Share Posted July 28, 2002 NEYO: take your t68 to your nearest service center, they'll probably upgrade the firmware on your t68 into a t68i free for you :D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
