Tadi liat di Dugem sama SESC di roxy
Katanya W595 udah gak ada stok.
Menurut pendapat CS di Dugem : katanya pas launching, W595 gak terlalu banyak stoknya, terus sekarang gak dapet stok baru

gw bilang juga apa, dua bulan langsung discontinue kan????? biar W395 laku.

@WE
W395 gak langsung kena dampak W595 discontinue kale
Beda 1 jutaan ini.

Klo di bandung W595 di sentra HP besar udah agak sulit. di BEC di toko2 yg gede udah agak susah, tapi klo di toko2 yg kecil masih lumayan sering nemu..Kayaknya stok sisa

Nyari W595 kayaknyah jangan di sentra HP, mending di toko cabang ato yg kecil2..moga ajah masih punya stok sisa

rekans2.. mo tanya nih..
kebetulan nemuin nih thread yg khusus ttg W 595.
di baca2 di depan, keiknya ada dugaan W595 nih ilang dari pasaran ya.. wah, sayang sekali ya..
sebabnya gini, dah hampir 3 bulan, saya hunting nih HP buat istri, tapi hasilnya nol besar.. nothing dahh..

malah di thread ini ada warna pink.. ihik.. pass banget tuh.
kalo gak DC, kira2 kapan ya barang ini beredar di pasar lagi..??

mungkin ada yg masih punya stock..??
karena, selama 3 bulan ini, istri juga gak bisa kepincut ke model lain. itu lah masalahnya..
beraat.. beraatt..

duh, istrinya lagi nyidam ya bang? hehe

coba nyari di SE center ada nggak...

nunggu w705 aja....
kali SE sengaja men-DC kan w595 supaya diganti sama suksesornya
kyk w705 ato w995

sayang ya W595...
padahal anak-anak di skul aq (SMA) banyak yg ngarep W595, rata-rata anak muda kan seneng dengerin music rame-rame. Itu terpenuhi ama W595, mau dari speaker ato dari dual jack HF nya..
huhu
yg udah punya W595 duluan jadi inceran massa..
hha..

dual jack hf ---> fasilitas tambahan pada hf, bukan pada hape
jadi mungkin aja hape lain bisa dipasang fasilitas ini juga
CMIIW

@tekimania
Tapi HF dual jack kan gak dijual bebas di pasaran.

Sekarang W595 sudah bisa ditemuin koq di sejumlah toko HP,

kemarin baru beli yg warna lava black, menurut aku pribadi mungkin pada

penasaran sama double speakernya, ternyata biasa aja tuh output suaranya

aku masih bingung juga ya, yg kelihatan seperti speaker diatas itu gak ada lobangnya,

berarti cuma variasi doank ?, dan yg lobang dibelakang itu speaker apa bukan ya ?,

yg udah yakin speaker cuma paling bawah, krn dibalik jaring ada lobang dibagian kiri

kalo dipasangin HF yg paling oke suaranya pada saat Equalizer di set MEGABASS,

suaranya mantap, tp rasanya tipe lain juga gak jauh beda sih, dan mungkin masih

banyak "bug" nya, kalo kita ganti lagu ada distorsi suara antara penggantian lagu yg justru

tdk ditemuin pada seri lain, selain itu equalizer hanya bisa diset pada saat HF terpasang

, bagi saya itu sebuah penurunan kwalitas dari walkman sebelumnya.

*penonton kecewa*

Vdeo clip yg bisa diputar di G502 malah gak bisa di W595.

Penyebabnya karena tidak support 25 FPS,

Kemampuan rekam videonya masih 15 FPS, bandingkan dgn G502

yg udah 25 FPS.

Kameranya gak bagus.

Tutup baterenya sangat tipis, susah dipasang, susah dibuka,

konyolnya malah persis dgn punya W380, baru 2 kali buka udah

gak rapet lagi.

Tombol keypad mencurigakan, karena mirip punya W580 yg sering

retak, tp mudah-mudahan gak gitu ya.

@atas
Berarti W595 jelek ya?

Secara jujur saya katakan Iya !,

saya rasa lebih baik memilih C501 atau T700.

Sebelumnya sempet mencoba T700 selama 1 hari, dan

Ternyata performance T700 malah lebih oke, satu saja

kekurangan T700, loudspeaker membuat kita sakit gigi.

Gak tau kenapa systemnya W595 terasa berat, sementara

T700 terasa begitu lancar.

@flyingfish
Emang sebelumnya bro pake hp apa?
Apa yg membuat bro tertarik pada W595?

walau udah di upgrade ke latest f/w ?

mmmmm :P

Kyknya unitnya yg bermasalah deh.. Jd performanya mengecewakan.. Hrsnya t700 dan w595 sama2 pake A2 generasi kedua kan?
