W910 sekarang juga uda 2 jutaan

kapan sih nih HP masuk Indo???? ga ada kepastian gini, di luar dah dijual2in disini ga ada kabar sama sekali, ya klo blon ada kepastian harga minimal jadwal releasenya di Indo kek.
ngehek juga nih SE Indo, udah gw tahan2in ga beli C702 dulu cuma mo nunggu nih hp, mana $ lg ga stabil, tar C702 harganya naek W595 nya baru keluar, ga ada yg di beli deh udah W series modelnya dikit, masukin ke Indo nya lelet, kapan????????????????????? byk bacot bgt marketing SE Indo, ga kyk Nokia, bar-bur aj masukin HP baru, di luar negri launch lusanya dah ada di roxy

jd esmosi gw

@GyRo

Sabar bro....Jgn ngomong ng**ek lah....Ga enak di baca di sini.....hehe

akhirnya................................................... ada juga kejelasan, udah tanya sana-sini, bulan depan nih HP masuk Indo, klo harga blon bisa di pastiin, karna liat $ yg masih labil, tapi utk masuk bulan depan dipastiin jadi karna memang udah jadwal rilis di Indo nya, thank God!!! ok deh...... sabar menunggu dulu nih, sori C702........... klo bulan depan W595 nya keluar ga jadi beli C702

boss mau nanya neehh..

gw mo beli hp soner tipe W
sebelumnya gw pake w550
nah waktu liat w595 ini jadi jatuh cintrong deh ama dobel spikernya

tapi ada beberapa yg mau gw tanyain :

1. nih w595 udah pake Walkman v3.0 kayak w902 nggak yah?
2. soal headset, apakah juga pake hpm 77 kayak punya w902?

semua ini karena barusan gw baca reviuw di gsmarena, yg bandingin w902 dengan w595. Dan mereka bilangnya semua fitur walkman w595 sama persis dengan w902. Yg membedakan cuma fitur pada kameranya doank.

Gw cuman butuh fitur walkmannya aja sih, kamera yah yg penting bs buat foto2, gak perlu yg high tech, toh ntar juga diedit di potosop.. :P

Mohon pencerahannya bosss...
soalnya w550 gw udah mau matot nih,, layarnya udah mulai ilang warnanya, malah kadang2 jadi kayak negative film gt..

jadi gw mo segera ganti...

siap2 kecewa aj deh boss ternyata gsmarena pun masih bisa ngelakuin kesalahan, W902 & W595 bedanya byk, ga seperti yg dibilang gsmarena W902 ada front camera (video call), W595 ga ada, tapi masih bisa videocall (pake kamera belakangnya gw kira titik kecil di pojok kiri frontcamera, ternyata bukan) W902 udah clearbass, W595 masih megabass

kesimpulannya, buat yg udah bela2in nungguin nih HP bakal kecewa berat, TERMASUK GW ( ( klo bos fanatik W series mending ambil W760 aj, spek hampir sama persis & harga cuma 2.5 (gw dapet sigitu, tadi jm9 mlm beli, gara2 tau W595 ga ada front camera) dan harga W595 pasti bakal diatas 3, hemat 500 ribu bos, bisa buat beli HPM yg bagusan (buat yg blon punya)

@ GyRo : soal front cam gw gak butuh itu bro. kagak pernah pake buat video call.
klo soal clear bass itu udah ngerti gw, emang w595 masih megabass doank, sama kayak tipe W sebelumnya.
Gw sih suka w595 karena design nya cantik dan keren.

Soal HPM, gw baca2 dari forum luar, kata mereka w595 dikasih HPM-70 bukan HPM-64. Klo masih HPM-70 mah gw tetep mau nih hp, karena HPM-70 bentuknya pas dikuping dan menurut gw udah bagus tuh. Klo di indo dapet HPM-64 ya jelas males banget gw. Udah pernah liat gw HPM-64 bentuknya segede gaban gitu, bikin kuping geli wkakakak...

Nah, pertanyaannya....
Apakah dengan mengganti HPM ke yg lebih bagus, contohnya gw beli sendiri HPM-77, apakah suara yg dihasilkan akan meningkat dan sangat beda dengan HPM-70?
Klo itu iya mah, gapapa deh.. gw sementara beli w595 trus pake HPM-77 sambil nunggu tipe W baru yg bentuknya mantab dan keren dengan fitur clear audio gitu...

waduh..
ga ada boss2 yg mau reply nih
hiks..

Kualitas audio yang dihasilkan tentunya tergantung dari hardware yang ada di handphone ditambah dengan kualitas handsfreenya juga.
Berdasarkan pengalaman sebelumnya, kualitas audio hape2 Sony Ericsson seri Walkman (bahkan juga beberapa non-Walkman mid-high end), kualitas audionya bisa dikatakan sangat bagus. Udah banyak yang mencoba mengganti headset dari bawaan paketnya dengan headset dari seri Walkman semacam HPM-70 dan hasilnya sangat memuaskan.
IMHO HPM-77 dan HPM-70 kualitas audionya jauh lebih bagus daripada HPM-64, jadi jawaban dari pertanyaan kamu bisa gw katakan adalah "Ya".

@GyRo
bedanya clear bass sama mega bass dimana ya???

gw pake seri walkman, trus klo gw set ke megabass malah jadi aneh....kurang natural gitu...

kayanya byk yang menghujat nih hp...hehehe

yang udah make mana sih.....kasih ripiu dong.....

terutama tenteng keypadnya.....
testnya gini aj : dicoba smsan nonstop selama 2 bulan, ko keypadnya gak rusak, ema bener2 upgrade dari w580 (sebagian peningkatan)
tapi klo tetep ancur.....wassalam

@WhiteEye

emang SE abis rugi knapa y???salah invest kaya prush Down Johnson an Lenan Brothers....sori OOT dikit

IMHO Clear Bass lebih terasa jernih dan lembut, juga detailnya lebih terasa.

Tergantung jenis lagunya juga sih bro, gw juga jarang pake MegaBass, lebih suka atur manual, cari yang pas dengan selera.

Mungkin karena banyak pengalaman jelek dengan pendahulunya.

Apalagi ini, mesti nunggu 2 bulan, sedangkan sampai sekarang belum ada yang jual, belum ada yang beli. Berarti jawabannya baru tahun depan dong?

mantab booss..
besok deh gw ke lapak sony buat nanyain kepastian tuh handsfree dapet yg HPM-64 atau HPM-70

btw..

klo HPM-70 dan HPM-77 jelas lebih bagus HPM-77 kan ya boss?
klo dari segi harga beda jauh gak antara keduanya?

udah lama gak update harga aksesoris SE neh bos.
mohon bantuannya..

sori all baru nongol, sibuk kerja (padahal internet 24jm di rumah & kantor), tapi bener2 ga sempet buka2..... sekali lg sori ya, buat pertanyaan2 diatas rata2 dah dijawab ama bro TheRealOne (thx bro),

utk bro raditshare HPM-77 kan generasi terbaru, jd seharusnya dia lebih bagus dari HPM-70, klo utk harga kyknya bisa lebih mahal HPM-77 dikit, semoga membantu.

kalo gw pribadi kebetulan dah punya HPM-82 (bekas K810 [K800 di patch]), ya tentunya beli terpisah, ampe kiamat juga ga bakal dapet dlm paket penjualan so budget yg udah gw siapin utk C702, trus mo ke W595 (yg akhirnya ga ad yg jdi di ambil), gw ambil W760 dgn pertimbangan sisa budgetnya bisa gw beliin M2 8gb, dah emang dah gw beli sori melenceng dari thread W595, tapi ini masukan bagus juga kan?? mengingat W595 emang blon keluar di Indo, trus prediksi harga yg pasti diatas 3jt (yg seharusnya harga segitu dapet front camera, tapi malah dikasih M2 2gb) jd balik lg ke masalah selera aj skr, yg mo beli silahkan nunggu dgn sabar karna bulan ini emang emang rencana udah masuk ke toko2,

klo soal feature kan udah byk dibahas tuh diatas termasuk pendapat dari gw

@ bro GyRo : thx atas masukannya boss...
mantab...
jadi niat beli HPM-77 neh klo ntar dari bundling nya w595 cuman dikasih HPM-64
tapi klo udah dikasih HPM-70 ya udah gak usah beli HPM-77

perkiraan gw sih tuh w595 pertama keluar seharga sekitar 3,5 - 3,8 jeti deh
perkiraanku loh...

baru ntar setelah 1 bulanan baru turun di level 3 juta atau 3 jt kurang dikit

bener gak yah perkiraan gw?

wah jadi penasaran pengen tahu peringkat dan tingkatan hansfree SE neh,,
mulai dari HPM yg paling buruk ampe HPM yg paling joss...

ada boss yg bisa bantu menjelaskan?

W595 mending donk bisa videocall. W760 setau gw bahkan ga ada menu videocall nya

soal peringkat/tingkatan handsfree, bro TRO pernah bikin..nih kira2 yah...

"Di antara model-model in-ear yang pernah (dan masih gw pake), menurut gw HPM-77 itu yang paling bagus, disusul sama HBH-DS980, HBH-GS970, HPM-75, dan HPM-70."

trus bro hwars bikin :
"Jadi menurut gw urutan dari yang bagus ke kurang bagus :
1. hpm-62 (jernih, bass lumayan nendang..)
2. hpm-70 (cukup jernih, bass nendang..)
3. hpm-64, (agak jernih, cenderung agak kasar.. bass jg ga gitu nendang pdhl katanya bass reflex..)"

nah, secara gw cuma pernah nyoba hpm 62.64,70 ma 82 :

so, klo gw urutin tuh HPM 62, 64, 70, 82..hehe hpm 70 ma 82 sebenernya sama aja sih..cuma beda di remote control ajah...

klo hpm 77 sih gw yakin maknyuss laah...hehe

kan dah gw post diatas W595 pun ga ada front camera trus W760 bisa koq vid call, tapi penyakitnya harus make kamera belakang makanya pertimbangan gw utk ngambil W760 daripada W595 (sebenernya ini urusan ke selera aj sih) klo buat gw pribadi sama seperti gw bilang diatas, dgn spek yg ga jauh beda & harga yg pasti diatas 3jt makanya pilih W760 aj yg jelas harga lebih murah trus sisanya gw beli M2 8gb lagian gw sebenernya ngincer W902, tapi utk harga diatas 4.5 sih paling2 larinya ke W980 (W760 nya gw oper ke bini gw aj si CS SE yg cantik )

hmmh...klo kata gw sih, W595 ma 760 tuh bedanya lebih ke selera aja deh...soalnya fiturya sama persis..hanya di W760 ditambah GPS yah...

inggal lebih suka yg mana..model imut tp fitur minus dikit n rada mahal..atau model biasa ajah (walaupun ini krn relatif dibandingn ma W595) tp fitur lumayan n lebih murah...
