Just wondering whether anyone here had bought a 7200 and whether it was worth getting. Or should i bide my time and get the silver flip they have released/will release? I heard its really heavy though....and soft keys right under a swivel screen seems a bit stupid. Whose idea was that? And the other flipthat is available in three colours has no external display. Haven't seen a flip like that for quite a while.

Thanks for the feed back.

Yea, seems pretty silly. Though, is there so that the phone can be used with the phone screen twisted in front of the keypad.

Well there is the fairly recent Panasonic X68, Samsumg X430, and Panasonic X66 that don't have an extrenal display...and I guess the Pana X70 and the SE Z200 could be included too...

Its quite good, only if you like the phone. Just that its value depreciates rapidly :(. I had one and was perfectly happy with it!

actually i don't find the phone all that good. i mean, it looks nice and stuff but it's definitely not worth it for the price, it doesn't even have bluetooth and the camera is pretty slow

based on what i've seen and read, the only reason you'd wanna buy it is because of the covers and the design. apparently the nokia UI isn't that well implemented (the three softkey thing), and its very expensive. my sister was gonna buy one but luckily they were out of stock so we got two 7610's instead.

Oh, which colors did you get? And the 7200 now goes for around 200~$ thats not a bad price at all. Max 300$

The 7200 here in the Philippines is still very expensive- high $300s-low $400s

I guess it's more expensive here because it's very stylish.
Oh, I saw in a phone store today a 7200 style pack...for P2500! ($50!)

IMO I think that's low - wish trade in value was actually higher than the cost of the phone!

That's probably impossible for any phone.

Mabuhay means "welcome"
and kamusta means "how are you?" in Tagalog.

Well kamusta ka na really means how are you, but kamusta can be associated with it as well. Kamusta is also used as 'hello' (I think...)
mundets
07-13-2004, 07:14 AM
It is?? I only thought it meant how are you...
And to say hello, just say hello!

Well it's more of a designer phone so it will be expensive. Like designer bags, shoes, clothes, et cetera.
