Mobile Bluetooth Phone

[Bartierx300]

Hi Guys, i'm due for an upgrade on my mobile phone soon and was thinking of getting a Sony Ericsson K750i, does the Bluetooth work well with the car? At present i have a Samsung D500 which is excellent but i now fancy a change, any thoughts much appreciated. Baz.

Baz,

I use Nokia phones and they always seem to work well. The only prob is transfering the phone book as this has to be done one entry at a time. Latest is a 8800 which my daughter tells me is far too flash for an old man but she could give it a very good home. :P

You won't go wrong withthe K750I by far one of the best phones on the market at the moment, the camera is superb for a phone.

Decent phone, though I prefer Nokias ....... but I think he means, is it good in terms of ....... compatibilitiness with the RX blue tooth !

As a man in the industry, I use the K750i myself and their a fantastic handset. Great, camera, good memory, vastly improved software and stacks of features. Aslo plays Mp3s, extended video clips.

Thumbs up in my view. Ive been most pleased with mine and have been using it for about 2 months.

"I prefer Nokias " what are you some sort of Lemming? :P

Anyhow, K750 should work fine with the RX.

I've had the K750i since they came out and I'm very happy with it, but it still has a lot of bugs in the firmware, BT compatibility can still be flaky with third party devices, personally it's ok for me but friends who are using them with cheapo BT headsets get a lot of problems but then again that could be the BT stack on either end which is buggy...

I don't know why but the original firmware recorded video at a much higher bitrate than the newer firmwares so I've stayed put on what came with the phone as it kills the newer versions!

There are people converting these to W800's now as well to get things like Flight Mode etc...

I have always had a habit of having a Nokia phone and then swapping back to Sony Ericcson, I made one venture into Samsung but that was too toy like without the functionality I needed, but that was when they brought out their first ever colour screen clamshell!

I've used a couple of Sony's with Bluetooth and they all worked very nicely.

I would stay away from Nokias as you need to transfer your phonebook contact-by-contact. Sony's allow you to transfer the whole thing in one go :-)

I just upgraded to a K750i from a D500 much nicer phone but Vodafone have really messed up the phone with their own software, resticted it to not play certain mp3 formats and only give you demo's of the games among other things, If you can, try not to get one thats on Vodafone, I reflashed mine with generic Sony Ericsson software and its a much better phone for it, and runs much faster in the menu's etc. not sure about the RX300 BT but it worked with my BT headset that i used to use with my D500 without a hitch.

Some networks are great for cocking up the software. As I know the Sony Ericsson rep I can get pretty much anything. Orange for once (thank ***) left the software mostly untouched.

Maybe when I see some of you guys if there is a meet sometime soon, I can forward on some full episodes of the simpsons and other good stuff etc.

Hi Brettster, already sent it back the W800i is a bit of a girls phone (orange and white) the K750i is probably better but as i say they were out of stock. as it's an upgrade i'm gonna order another Samsung D500 as it does work well with the cars Bluetooth and its easy to use. regards Baz

HI all

not replying but fishing for info. recently got the RX300 and have a Nokia 6820 -- I thought I was going daft when I could not get the phone to "initiate transfer" as the system requests. Since this discussion started has anyone found a way to do the transfer? Even dumber question to you guys who know how to transfer entry at a time ... how do you do that please?
