Ericsson T68 - User Reviews

  • Hi, on the ebay. A few years ago I´ve bought a brand new one.

  • No Radio, low res screen, no Wifi, and most importantly no Headphone JACK! I'm never buying this thing :p

  • You can see how later Sony Ericsson phones from the 2000's have influence from this phone. Particularly the Sony Ericsson J220i with the call and hangup keys.

  • Anyone know where I can get a T68m NOT a T68i? :/

  • Greetings from the future. Colour display is quite common these days

  • my very first phone, amazingly that time most phones have only blu tuth or infr red port but this phone have both which makes its super communicator. I am lovin it.I still have this one but no charger

  • This comment made my day....sorry night.

  • I had this phone 2001 for Singapore $1,100.

  • do it 4g

  • i want this mobile phone, where i get this ph

  • True, but the S10 just had some 4 colors, as far as I can remember. More like for having various parts of the menu in different colors. This one had 256 colors so you could actually look at pictures on it.

  • Ericsson T68 is not the first color screen phone,It's Siemens S10.But T68 is the first color screen phone of Ericsson

  • erm no it wasnt, both the R520 and T36 had Bluetooth built in and GPRS. the T68 was the first phone to have a colour screen.

  • First bluetooth gprs phone ever - no mobile web page views b4 this phone.

  • The T68m along with the SE T68i were the best candy handhelds I've ever had the chance to experience. Sturdily built and reliable functionality-packed. Grab one on eBay and you'll get a great piece of tech to use and show to your grandsons :)

  • Belive it or not Ericsson is swedish and so is Bluetooth ;)

  • This thing has Bluetooth :O i cant believe it

  • One of the first world phones. A classic.

  • my first colored phone :)

  • my favorite island is mykonos , my favorite bar pierros and my favorite phone t68...and of course i allways wear ray-bans

  • do you like the idea of going on the island of winds??mykonooooooooooooooooos

  • like it?

  • cool phone... i wish i could find a photo from karanasios in order to put it as a wallpaper!

  • does it have mp3;please somebody tell

  • Where are you guys?

  • Were still here!!!! :) Regards, A guy from Ericsson

  • Ahhh......this was a very romantic and admirable cellphone 4 me until my present day, beside siemens, I became a big fans of ericsson products (SE not included) but unfortunately...they were lost on the cruel battle at cell industries.....my heart was really broke, ooooh.....I miss u guys

  • It was a great cell. I had used for a long time. but unfortunately i lost it. when i see its pics i really recall those times once...

  • For its time, the best phone ever made!

  • The greatest phone of all times. The best set of dimensions, weight and performance.

  • Great phone I still have it, had a little problem but i dont want to sell it or throu. It was hit when was realise it

  • this phone was ahead of its time.

  • I bought this phone on last week.I love it.Really tiny, but cute!

  • I miss it so much,it was my first phone I've got in my life

  • damn it. i do miss this phone!

  • do a search, you will notice this is the first color phone in the GSM world..Nokia was lag behind 6 months..

  • the best at the time!!!

  • 25 hr talk time , tell me a phone that does that today JACK!!

  • As far as I know, Ericsson needed a joint venture to continue in this field that is very profitable, because they invested so much in 3G technology too soon, something that are still very slowly being implemented. I just feel that most of the people are concerned just in callings and messaging.

  • nbfdghfdsghhshshgshgshhhhsh85678756

  • this phone is really great. i used to have this since i'm in high school. it has a very clear connection when you call. you can hear clearly the voice of the other party. it also has the longest standby life. it was still open with minimal use for 3 to 5 days. its very handy and it is also having one of the kind durability. i dropped it several times but its still working. don't compare this to the present unit. in terms of quality, this is the best. ambiet

  • If you want to live in thepast that's fine, but not me thank you very much, with the announcement of future proof phones boasting 12mp and android capabilities, this is what the consumer wants and needs. Folk like you stuck in the monocrhome and dark past need to move on and realize that phones like this are dead and gone...for good! Had this one back in 2002, good phone but pants compared to today's multimedia handsets.

  • Sony took the awesome T68 which had a nice metal case, replaced it with a cheap plastic one, changed the software a little and came up with the T68i - RUBBISH! And all they came up with after that was still rubbish! Ericsson was indeed the gratest phone producer. It's still a mistery why they got bankrupt and needed Sony. Having in mind their great products CEO bribery sounds very plausible. Sad...

  • This is the last real phone made by Ericsson until Sony spoiled the brand. GREAT innovation (for that time), Great shape, great features! ONE OF THE BEST PHONES EVER (along the Nokia 6110)! I still miss Ericsson and always will...

  • had to buy this for my collection. really a gold-standard. my 17th phone.

  • dis product is phase out.

  • The best desighn EVER!!!

  • This phone was so ahead of its time. Bluetooth, voice dialing, MMS, colour screen, Camera (via attachment). It was just great. At the time this came out, it was head and shoulders above anything else available at the time. They did release a T68i but they were functionally the same (all bit it with a firmware update). I still have mine about and working! Great phone

  • lol i used to have this phone... it was pretty decent... until one day the person calling me couldnt here what i was saying... *sigh*

  • ""i just dont get what was its difference with t68i."" This is an Ericsson T68. the T68i was a Sony Ericsson. feature wise, relatively the same.

  • that's terrible!

  • this was the best phone for 2 years. it was the first phone with color display in Europe. 256 colors. it was a MUST HAVE, and the degisn was original at his time.

  • i just dont get what was its difference with t68i. they have the same features though. this phone is still available on some networks right?

  • I had this phone for about 2 years, dropped it many times, toughest phone ever.

  • This is the only phone from Ericsson with color screen

  • wow... thats the father of the modern cell phones

  • This mobile's design is absolutely UGLY. Why dont you check the much better Sony Ericsson t39 ? See for yourself, the t39 rocks.

  • I had this phone- fell out of my pocket after a couple of months and was damn expensive!! However the operating system was quite frankly awful and I switches back to Nokia with whom I've been with ever since.

  • One of the best GSM fones i had! Great battery life, handsome appeal and very ergonomic design. Bluetooth, IR, GPRS in a small package. The only downside is the low memory.

  • holy sh*t,bluetooth,infrared,voice memo and color screen way back in '01 !

  • It is the best phone.

  • is this the first color hp?

  • i think that T68 can be one of the best phones if only it had a better network

  • Really nice phone spoilt by poor reception and buggy software. It was close to top dog in its day but I'd say look elsewhere for much more for your money today.

  • the best

  • Who can tell me a site where i can find free soft for t68 ???

  • I purchased a used Ericsson T68 I enjoy MMS (Taking Pictures). I keep learning more about the Cell Phone every day & enjoy everything about it.

  • anybody here from the philippines? how much i will pay if i swap my 8210 to dis phone thanx in advance!

  • i wll like to place the order within five days also am going to pay u throug my credit card thak u urs customer where are u located?

  • T68 is nice if the manufature upgrade its' colour to 65k. Plus add in some polyphonic to enchance it!

  • Does this phone have a camera attachment because I want to see if my bragging mate is lying or not,he said he "lost" the attachment,I on the other hand has kept my pan G60 and camera safe so he is jealous

  • ericsson t68 je za mene najbolji model 2003g.

  • can anyone be selling a second hand t-68 i,m willing to buy nairobi,kenya

  • Its a gr8 phone, but there just one thing it lacks and ie i can`t set any personal message tone and i have to be happy with the default tones only

  • There is no othere handset like t 68

  • um pretty good looking but i haven't tryed the phone so can i have one for free???

  • complete and lovely

  • t68 rules!!!

  • hello! I just buy an T68i and also a camera. How many pics I can memo with both? Please,help me...!!!!

  • it cool coz its handy. its not a common phone here in our country philippines. only few people use it

  • I have a T68(with T68i software) and the stand by time is really poor... about 3 days with minimal usage. If you have any ideea what's the cause (I've check the battery and it's ok) please drop a line...

  • Please I want to find out the price of pictures GSM phone such as Nokia, Ericsson, Motorola and Sony Ericsson from your company.And how to get it here in Nigeria. hoping to hear from you soon. Thanks

  • cool

  • I got this phone after having a Nokia 8310. WHY?? I'm sending it straight back to buy back my Nokia. T68i, not very userfriendly, takes ages to text, text messages look messy, a whole lot of rigmorol to add a number, ring tones are rubbish and generally a whole lot of time wasting to get to the option you want. Not a happy bunny!

  • Do you know of any problems with the T68m. We have some pieces that have very poor stanby times. Is this a common problem? Regards Chris Reynolds

  • This phone rocks i mean what else do you need in a phone?it has everything unlike Nokia which have some feature missing and that particular missing feature comes in some other Nokia phone.Nice way to cheat people Nokia :)

  • this phone sucks!!!!!!!!!!!

  • I have the phone for a month I noticed many reception problems tha calls does not complete normally sudden turn off happens slow sms view display is good in the dard outdoor view is almost impossible battery is moderate I think buying this phone after nokia 6310 is a real mistake nokia 6000 series are the best for a professional ericsson tried hard but still long way to go

  • how to unlock t68

  • wish y'all nokia freaks wouldnt be praising ya god here. aint nobody forcing ya asses to get this phone...look away if u dont like it

  • i love the set

  • graet phone, dont actualy have one just writing this because i wish i did :(

  • its so nice specially the graphics !!!

  • as a nokia user i thought it was initially a nice phone with good functions. didnt like the t9 input text...and the reception is quite poor too. blue tooth, brilliant even though the headset needs recharging often. menu not as user friendly as nokia. feels and looks good!

  • This phone sucks...I had many models of Nokia and none of them dissapointed me (3310, 8310, 6510, 8850, 6310i). They were great, especially 6510 and 6310i. T68 is creapy, buzzy sound like shit, battery life sucks(3 days), slow menu. It doesn't worth the money. It's the most annoying phone i had. So, i went back to Nokia.

  • i hate it.

  • I will like to have such a handset with the same features of Ericson. Please i will like to be having information of handsets cos we deal on it. Thanks for your co-operation. Best regards.

  • Great phone overall, downsides are a bit too plastic, keypad a bit slow (worst when checking SMS inbox), battery unpredictable, doesn't give enough detail on missed calls (eg time of call). My boss has same phone with permanent keypad light on, I can't get mine to do this, does anyone know how?

  • I known about price and detail of mobile. thank you.

  • frigging crap

  • This is an AWFUL DESIGN and not attractive to women at all. The colour is horrendous and will not match with anything!! I am afraid I am in favour of the old erriccson design - but they seemed to have followed Nokia and I am not impressed. When will phone designers recognise that women see phones as a fashion accessory and design more stylish/co-ordinated phones!! Functionality is not always the major priority!!! No sale here!!!

  • I think the t68 is great. i have the t68i. it lacks polyphonic ringtones and downlaodable games and a built-in camera. like the nokia7650, only it is bigger and bulkier.

  • I like the new t68.I recently bought it,and I enjoythe quality of this phone.T68 is outstanding phone and I recomend it to any body who like style and quality!!!

  • shite

  • i strongly advice anyone to buy this phone and to keep it like a true friend because it's a true friend of communication ! I had : 5110, 5210, 3210, 6110, 6150, 6210, 7110, 8210, 8310, 8850, motorola v60(idiot phone), ericsson ga628, a1018, t28 but from all of these i like this one ! i payed 300$ at the black market and i like my money to be well spent and they sure are on this one ! it has everything i need + colour screen that is a wonder for my eyes. the themes that it has are skins of the phone for every season = very very nice. Well done ericsson, well done !

  • Ohmygood its ugly! Do u really like this? Svenssonien uus romu, aina yht� kauhea... Arght. Millon ericsson tekee paremman n�k�si� puhelimia? When ericsson starts making good-looking fones?

  • I really love this T68 complete with joystick navagation n all the features .........such a nice friend 2 communicate

  • Acest telefon este prea mare si nu imi intra in cur deci pute!!!!!!!!!

  • my phones auto starts and auto shut downs the menu doesnt come at all. did any one you people have this problem please help me out. Also the mechanic says it is a circuit problem. please help me out.

  • i am dissapointed though its a great phone my phone just started hanging and now it doesnt start at all i am a great fan of this phone but still my money has been lost as the repairing cost is more than what i had bought the mobile for

  • This phone contains more functionalities than most Nokia's combined! When this was launched in 2001, there wasn't a single phone that had more for the price. Up to this day the T68 still offers more than most! They have combined practicality and fun in this phone, something which others are struggling to do in their product. Well done Ericsson.

  • I think itz really a gr8 cell for school guyz like me i think itz worth owning but if u have a bigger bugdet i think u shud take the sony ericsson T68i as in india we have a better resale value for sony ericsson

  • to slow phone but is good

  • I see everyone going on about this fone? - but whats the hoo-harr about it??, it aint that special, gd 67 is well better.

  • what's the difference between this and the t68i?

  • ericsson t68i

  • To any genuine Beatle Fans across the globe! I live in Liverpool, England the home of The Beatles. Anyone who sends me a Ericsson T68 will recieve some "Fab Four" paraphernalia in return...

  • Number one ever in my hall of fame. Of course they speak nowadays about 4096 colors, about 65k colors, about java, but these things lessening nothing in it, beacuse it is an absolute pioneer phone. All others can just follow it. On the other hand these new phones are imbalanced ones in some cases (like Samsung t100 for example) so t68 rulez forever.

  • I've got this phone for a week. i really love its shape and the color display. it's very intelligent mobile phone. GPRS Bluetooth IrDA MMS EMS etc. i think it is a best color mobile in the market now if you're thinking of the Function and PRICE!! but some function i usually use, it very deep inside. So hard to find. and ERICSSONS' accessories is very EXPENSIVEE

  • The only feature lacking is FM Stereo, which would have made this the BEST Cell in the market

  • A Complete loss phone

  • Nothing better! :)

  • PDA's, cameraphones, streaming videos - u get whatsoever on your handy nowadays, but what do u say about this cadget?

  • I agreed, are we buying a handphone or a PDA? let's be fair. Thanks.

  • Nokia 7650 may be good but the look is like a PDA or even the size bigger than PDA, unlike the design of T68 really looks cool. Let's wait for Sony Ericsson 800 series, it's the phone that worth waiting for.

  • Good phone when it came out (first color phone), however nowadays we're talking 4096 colors and not a mere 256 colors. I suggest waiting for the 7650, 3650 (brand new) or opt for the 7210, no camera but more options than all the other ones

  • T68 is the phone has the look and performance. The only problem I found is the message received tone is too soft, can anyone advise how to increase the volume. Thanks.

  • i have T68 and is best mobile phone on the world

  • Whats a mobile?

  • it is very nice,how do i get one to create market at university of cape coast-Ghana?

  • hi i'm richard from pantech.korea i'm working for mobile communocation compaby in korea I would like to know about battery performance of T68 because this site just indicates stand-by,and talk time besides mAh(EX: 720mAh) i hope to see your quick resply!! thanks alot!!

  • i have 2 phones this and the sagem myx5. sorry but the sagem is better

  • Good..........

  • it has to be the most fucked phone i have ever had

  • I dont like it

  • execellent,but pls give sites for free pictures,logos and ringtones

  • i like it so much.... Probably to be number one ( that everyone want!! )

  • With the T68i firmware upgrade, T68m has same features as T68i except the outlook !!!

  • Great phone. one of the best ive had you should consider buying the t68i already because it has more great features.

  • Its for the poeple who know how to talk

  • does t68 have touch screen function?

  • ReG, you have to take your T68 to your nearest service centre to upgrade to T68i software as only service centre are authorise to do the upgrade

  • Does anywone have the upgrade software cose i have o Service Point in my Town where to update my t68 to T68i.If so please send me a lynk or the tool.10x

  • good

  • very interesting

  • t68 have a mp3write

  • I like it so much....

  • 510 phonebook entries can be store on T68

  • greetings!kindly advise how many phone numbers may be stored in Ericsson t66 & t68 phone directory. many thanks!

  • So far I love the phone, but I dont get the battery time they say.

  • all right guys i will have my t68 soon... i now need your help on where to get the theing upgraded to a t68i here in the U.S.

  • sorry guys i'm also from greece nokia went to 34% read this on lasts months mobile report

  • vic you probably don't know this from what i understand but there is no more problems in greece with the unicode the problem got solved!we write 160 in greek also in ericsson phones and by the way nokia had the 43% of the greek market last year an this year with the empty phones that it sells to the people it dropped to 36% at least in greece that's what the last statistics say in mobiles magazines.SO I SUGGEST TO YOU THE NEXT TIME STUDY FIRST AND DON'T JUST SAY 50% FILAKIA

  • i'am in the U.S. is the upgrade avalable freee of charge here?

  • SLOW,SLOW,SLOW !!! Even with the new software! In Greece all ericsson phones have the same problem with unicode in sms. You can send 75 caracters in greek and 70 with the greek T9 on!!! That is why the 50% of cell phones in Greece are NOKIA.

  • take it to service center and ask for software upgrade,,,,,,,,,,but better ring them first see if its already available in your country !!!

  • can some one tell me how to upgrade my t68 program to the t68i software? thanks

  • The coolest phone of all....got all the features ...........simply the best

  • Slow slow slow, yawn. Illogical menus. Poor reception. Poor sound quality. :-(

  • Great features (I have it) but it�s way too slow to operate. And the menus are�nt that logically arranged. I have had to use the manual more with this phone than all my old phones put to gether. I�m definitely gonna change to the 7650 nokia as soon as I get my hands on one of those babys!

  • I was very excited by the size and features of the phone. But, it really stunk as far as how well it worked out and about. I live in San Diego, and the phone only worked well about 20% of the time. Most of the time, when other phones would show a signal strengh of 3, this phone showed a signal srength of 1. I returned it after a couple of weeks. All the features in the world don't make up for a phone that doesn't hook up with the network.

  • Goooooood phone :D

  • By the way .. Ericsson T68 is exactly the same as Sony Ericsson T68i !!! Just the batteri is plastic in T68i and the color of the phone the differens !! if you like to read that.. click here..This is what Sony Ericsson said in www.mobil.se !! www.mobil.se (Swedish & Dannish only)

  • To get free logos and ring tones for Ericsson T68/T68i .. click here.. If you want to know, where in your country you can upgrade your Ericsson T68 to the new softwear.. click here..

  • The first phone in all the world with 256 color display is ERICSSON T68 ! what is old fashioned in that ?? It was the first with color display at all !! and don�t forget.. the price between Ericsson T68/T68i and any other phone with better color display is tooo much that you think NOT to pay more for just more colors !!! An Ericsson T68/T68i now in Sweden, coast about 500$ ! and soon will Nokia go out with a new phone with 4000 color display !! But the price is around 800$ !! you think i pay 300 $ more, just because Nokia have more colors ?? i could buy 2 phones in the new Nokia phone price LOL.. We have to think logical !! And by the way .. Ericsson T68/T68i have the best Standby and Talktime !!! If you are in the good coverage zone for the mobile netmast, it will be about 350 hours Standby and 13 hours talktime !! This is what i have in my own phone and my brother phone ! ! ! So please don�t just talk bullshit .. we need a logical complains.. ! My advice to you who have Ericsson T68 !! to upgrade your phone now, so you will get the same software as T68i have !! Your phone will changes alot .. and will have a full functionality ..

  • I don�t understand, what people wrote about this phone ??!!!!!! Ericsson T68 got most of best marks between all phones in this world ! What are you guys complain on ?? I know alot of persons who don�t have this phone, cause they can�t buy it ! they complain and complain !! Upgrade the Ericsson T68 with the new program.. and you will see a great phone !! no problems at all with it !!! as Night said all bugs are fixed in the new verision and you get the same software as in T68i !!!

  • If you upgrade T68 with the new softwear who T68i have .. you will get a more powerfull Ericsson phone .. lovley and very fast.. all bugs are fixed in this new verision ..

  • Sony Ericsson T68i is much better than this!

  • Nokia 6610 is mush better than this slow phone!!!

  • Are mobile phones in Asia (for example Indonesia) cheaper than in Europe?

  • I love you

  • COOL!!! --->http://permaworld.org/members/index/index.shtml

From standby position push your joystick to the right once and press * (star) than push your joystick to the left twice press *(star) again push your joystick to the left once and press * (star) the last time and sw information will appear than press yes, your sw version will be there.

  • Press >*

  • Press >*

  • How can I see what software is on my T 68 ERICSSON what do I have to press THANK U

  • T68 is great BUT I have changed 2 in 21 days and thinking for 3rd BECAUSE battery goes flat in 2-3 day. 1st + 2nd I charged them for 20 h first time. After only 3-4 h.BUT Idont use it alot + battery goes flat usially in 2 days. PLEASE can someone by kind ( kanenas ellinas gamoto )to tell me how long lasts and what use min-mid -max Please I am thinking for 3rd

  • a 256 color display!!!! now it is an old fasioned

  • HI, Ericsson T68 model looks very preety but in Pune,India where it is available & what is the price? please let me know.

  • perhaps christian has used the very first software of the t68m that`s why he might said this,but again it wasn`t that bad.

  • I admit the menus could be faster but I've heard that will be with the T68i upgrade. The crap about fitting badly in hand, fragile plastic, getting blocked and weak signal etc is all wrong. It's wicked. Full stop.

  • Good: Overall design, impressive Bad: Too tiny, fits bad in hand Bad: Too fragile plastics Bad: Responds very slow to keyboard input Bad: Gets blocked quite often Bad: Overall RF performance, echo, chopping voice when signal is weak Very bad: Overall relibility

  • t68i is already available.if you go to sonyericsson's site it says that the upgrade for t68m=t68i will be available this week!!!!

  • And with the upgrade, just look around for when the T68i will be available (for me in Oz its June/July) then just go into a service center and they'll do it for free.

  • I have a T68 and I have read a few things here and there saying that the T68 battery is a bit different to others and will give exceptional standby/talk time etc but only after you charge it then let it run flat for the first half a dozen or so times. It may be a bit of a pain but it means the battery will go strong for a lot longer.

  • Are you sure you are having an original battery? T68 battery is one of the best. Long lasting. The latest sw is R2D005

  • This is the best phone by far but battery only last 2 days and I don`t even use it much is this normal ? ,it`s my first mobile I really like it but I get pisted off listening my mate with Nokia 8310 saying his last 6-7 days.Could anyone TELL ME THERE Battery Experience Please. When new upgrade software ? PLEASE

  • 6510 = 8310 so t68 is better in screen (larger+color),bluetooth,games,mms+ems,e-mail,ca­n be connected throgh datacable also not the nokia(only infra).also t68 has incredible voice functions!

  • What's best? nokia 6510 or ericsson t68?

  • it is very lovely and i won't mind if i had one cos i am a big user of ericsson products presently i have a t28 t29 and i am willing to get this one as soon as possible

  • i am selling a brand new, fully boxed and unlocked t68 (gold) together with ericsson carry case!! any serious offer over �200 ($300) will be considered! please email me at [email protected] with any questions.

  • it's the best celular

  • its good

  • i have the t68i , and it is a perfect phone

  • super tare telu

  • T 68 wicked man! but just wondering does it have alarm clock?

  • great news for you that have the t68m!the upgrade to make the t68m to t68i is available at least here in greece!probably throughout europe!check er.serv.points!on monday!

  • Absolutely fabulous phone. Especially like the fact you can change the background whenever, from wherever without having to call a premium rate number. Easy to use, very reliable and very quick internet access.

  • you sad bastards!

  • verry good

  • I think:-) The T68 is the best GSM in the World

  • Now this is the best phone on Earth, you should get on.

  • nice very nice

  • beautiful phone! Has everything a mobile business man/woman needs, excellent well done Ericsson.

  • dear sir, i loved your piece . i want to buy for about $ 100 - $ 175 can you arrange delivery . regards, apurva

  • ericsson it`s the best phone!!!

  • Now that's the way that a mobile phone should look like

  • sorry the 30th of april!:-)

  • i have greek cause i live in greece!i bought that way,it had greek as an option from the beginning.You should go to you your ericsson service and ask them if they can install the software for you there.if you got any questions just ask me!I CAN�T WAIT TO GET THE MMS UPGRADE ON THE 30TH OF MARCH HERE IN GREECE!

  • ok e

  • Does anyone currently own a T68 which has Greek as a language option? If so, did you buy the phone that way or did you have a software upgrade done? I'm moving to Greece for good later this year and need to have Greek installed while I'm still here in Australia. Any ideas/suggestions? Thanks

  • i use to have a nokia now i have ericsson!i think their great!really there isn't a good nokia phone to buy right now i'm really worried for nokia!lets just see when the 7650 is coming because the 7210 is coming out in november my girlfriend works in a nokia service she told me this about the 7210!its aiming for christmas time!

  • Are you talking about back ground pictures?

  • Hi I have one it is very nice but I don’t know how to save pictures if I receive sms with picture .

  • i like the way it goes. & ythe colour. i dont use the bluetooth yeat. .

  • this is a phone it is the dogs balls . i have ordered a t68i .. from my cousin in japan . those who say it is shit .most have a lemon . i find it so good and easy to use .. A+++++++++++++++++++++++ for performance .....

  • Is this phone have heart?

  • Well the "slow motion" is over cose with the new SW update R2B it Flyes,so quit winyng about !

  • Since there are so many disappointed T68 user in the market, is Ericcson going to keep quiet about it? How are they going to convince us to gain confident on their future launch handphone?

  • this has got to be the worst phone on the market its way to slow!!u press a button and wait and wait and wait if ur lucky something happens complete bundle of sh*** rock on NOKIA u rule

  • check out .......... www.esato.com and you will see why the t68 is the dogs balls handset about . at present . i was with nokia for years . if they cared that much about us customers would they not have reduced the S.A.R levels on ther phones . motorola v series have the lowest in world . and sonyericsson . are also doing there bit . stick with nokia . and fry ...

  • At first I had high regards on Ericsson tecnology. GPRS, Bluetooth, Tri band... I change from Motorola to T39 and had lots of problems. So I trade in to a T68 thinking that it will not occur problems like the T39. After owning it for 2 months, lots of problems aroused. Freezed, Hanging, and slow respond in SMS even I had upgrated to R2B software. The only thing that I am used to it now is using the wireless headset. If Nokia or Samsung could come out with a bluetooth headset, I will not hesitate to change.

  • had 2 for 6 months now and apart from some cool games, it sux. -crashing sounds deafen me ear during calls, freezes often and basically keeps falling over. all is forgiven nokia, I'm coming back.

  • The phone is great overall but with a bit sack back. Slow SMS, ringtones too short and it is not competitable with others ringtones operators even I am will to pay for the ringtones. Sometimes pairing with my bluetooth just disappeared.

  • i am now the owner off the best phone on the market . night night nokia . also S.A.R levels are nearly half off any nokia . thanks GEORGE . for steering me towards this phone the best phone in LA . ....... yours BRAD PITT

  • guys what is the difference between the T68 and the T68i? please thanks.

  • how many messages can be stored in this phone? does ericsson have a phone that can store 100 messages?

  • you see i was right it attracts this sort of a (kind) people gays!after this i can�t even think of buying a nokia phone!its disgusting bliahhh!!!

  • Shut up gays. Let's talk about phones not about gays

  • ya you're definitely right, im gay too... i hate every ericsson fones, i love nokia... nokia forever!!! say no to ericsson.

  • I think what they are trying to say is that most nokia models are made in such a way that they are liked to small kids and gays!you know extreme fancy colors and covers with no special extreme features inside!

  • Is there a problem that gays use Nokia phones ????? I had a Nokia but now I have a Siemens but I am also gay ??????? So is Siemens a gay lover hahaha

  • hehehe shit nokia : nokia connecting gays

  • nokia phones---- the phones for gays. so antonio banderas is a gay

  • it's a great cellular phone..!! Can i have it free???

  • check out the new 3 sonyericsson they r at the bottom of the phone list...

  • it is the best mobile untel now.

  • fart

  • OK, my first impression on T68 was: ugly! Than I bought it, and, yes, it's ugly, but it felt great in my hand. It appeared, that the "tombstone" shape is the best shape for a mobile phone! Unfortunately. Oh, yes, and of course the colour of my phone is grey, not this ridiculous gold, they seem to prefere.

  • Well its an ugly one. NOKIA is always the best, easier to use." Fuckin'ericsson.. u never getting better.." BRAVO NOKIA

  • how much

  • you know john that i don�t lie your sources perhaps from greece might say different as they did to me but in the official ericsson site which i was reading about new products at cebit it did say that!if you have any questions john contact me!

  • to all you nokia funs!the 7210 cannot kick bigtime the ericsson t68 because it only exists as pictures in the internet and as information that nokia gives its not out in the market yet!and as you know it comes out around november nokia says.and you know when nokia says around november it really means in the year 2525!!!xaxa

  • peter wrote that SE are giving the Communicam for free with the T68i who and from where did that info come from???That is the biggest lie ive heard in a long time!!!

  • The nokia 7210 doesnt a have a built in camera... and it has the same features at the T68 except for the 4096 colour... so wut abt the p800??!!!

  • the T68 has only 256 colorz.... but the new nokia 7210 has 4068 colors... itz fuckz the ericsson T68 BIG TIME ! and also the P800

  • yo man we don�t want to see a real phone we want to buy a real phone and right this minute only t68 is a real phone!7210 is coming out in november!AND IT DOESN�T HAVE ANY KIND OF VOICE REC.OR COMMANDS THAT�S A LAUGH!

  • Trend hot hot i like my tecnology now

  • Guys don't make me laugh! You wonna see a real phone look at www.nokia.com! See the new Nokia 7210! Fuck Ericsson t68 t68i ha hahahahaha!

  • what ericsson is doing with the communicam giving it free with the new sonyericsson�s t68 isn�t fair to all the other t68 users who paid a lot of money to buy it!

  • Excellnet phone!! well done guys.

  • WHAT a phone!!!!! Better as this isn`t possible.. go Ericsson!!!

  • wonderful phone the best by far

  • to DmX its more a wap site than web and impossible it works great for everyone

  • I'm always impressed by ericsson's T series slick models but T68 made me pissed off with ericsson. All the new T6 series look like a tomb stone. Damn you ericsson for spoilling my appetite.

  • i would like to buy this kind of ericsson. Please tell me how can i? what is the cost?

  • The best phone+PDA of the year!

  • By the way, stop here also:

  • Look at this beauty:

  • how much

  • dont buy this fuckin shit its fuckin rubish

  • the ericsson t68 is the best mobile you can fuckin buy its better then nokia .

  • Nokia 8910 vs Ericsson T68...which 1 is better???????

  • it is very impresiv

  • It is a great toy !

  • please don't by this shit. Philips fisio820 is much better!!!!!!!!!!!

  • New T68i: see www.esato.com

  • My wap site works perfectly why is there anyone else with problems entering the site??

  • The Nokia 6310 is very good, but too big, so I sent it back and bought the T68 instead. In addition, the 6310 does not have tri-band.

  • The phone is great but the synchronisation software sucks. Unfortunately Wellphone and Fone Data Suite are excellent but do not yet support the T68 with full functionality.

  • Don't buy a waste of money

  • ericsson should be banned from producing top end phones. How can they build a phone tht looks plain ugly

  • Communicator At the functional high-end of the portfolio Ericsson will bring to market a family of messaging-centric wireless devices that combine communications of voice, text and multimedia, and are open to 3rd party applications. The product concept is distinct from PDAs and other hand-held computing products through the superior and integrated communications capabilities, and from mobile phones and Smartphones by a further extended user interface suited for messaging and information access and exchange. Distinct "attributes" are user interface/ease of use and technology applied on real user needs. A great degree of customization and personalization will be offered. it says this at ­

  • any one know about sonyericsson communicator when we will see it

  • Mark LV: Why are you buying a brand new T68 when 6310 is much better AND cheaper?

  • Hi just wanted to know what is the best version? I have R1B... thx bye

  • The Gold T68 is now available - only a little more expensive than the grey one! Buy it here: I received mine today - and it looks fantastic! The difference between this one and the ugly Grey T68 is unbelievable.

  • Is thare any information about ericsson communicator? when we will se it?

  • the best phone so far Standard battery up to 300 h up to 11 h High Capacity Battery up to 29 days up to 25 h david

  • ok thx.... by the way y doesnt http;//my.wapjag.com/ericssont68 work???

  • Yes, That is possbile with all mobile phones, it is possible to downgrade the software.

  • John i want to ask you a question... if i upgraded my T68 to the newest version.. will all the b4 versions be availible? example if i upgraded it to the R3b will R2b features be there 2??? plz answer as soon as possilbe

  • In order to store a called number you go to unsaved numbers and you will find it there first you have to add contact add the name or add to existing name go to the type of phone number you want then push the joystick 2 times left go to unsaved number and there you have it,As for the R2B software you have to go to an Authorized Ericsson Service Centre go to this wap site for more details http;//my.wapjag.com/ericssont68

  • T68, a great phon...but, can enybody tell me how to store a rechived call number in the memory without retypin it? thanks, joe ...

  • So, does anyone actually know how to get the 'upgrade'??

  • does anyone know where and how the software on the t68 can be updated please? Is there a website in which the software can be dowloaded?

  • Software R2B is out no MMS though,Tetris has been removed and a new game has replaced it Naval Fleet something like battleships!!!

  • + t39 is way more beautiful and durable + the price is lowwwwwer!!!

  • hey i think T39 is way better than T68! who needs a color screen that makes the menu slow like a turtle! And MMS is costful in some countries! T39 is the clear choice with the same functions MINUS MMS COLOR SCREEN thats the only difference!

  • where can update the software to version R2A?

  • this is simplly the best phone........ it's prise is like nokia's 6510 yet has alot more (256 color screen, mms with upgrated sw, bluetooth, tri-band)..... the menu is kinda slow but if u upgrate to software version R2A. ericsson rules!!! if u want to buy a mobile phone for a reasonble price go to (e.g: t68 $415 t39 $227 t65 $185 sony j70 $154

  • this phone good lol u got to be joking if u want a good phone with a colour screen u should get the trium eclipse it kicks t68 ass the only ericsson phone i like and hoping to buy is the t20e

  • Beautiful phone, but menu too slow! It's like back to T28. And I wonder how much more sluggish it will become when the MMS upgrade is loaded. The phone itself is already so slow and memory seems limited, I wonder how the MMS upgrade can add more features. I actually dropped the phone on the road (mind you, those rough and hard surface!). It incurred a few dents on all 4 corners, but amazingly, it survived with no internal injuries! Really solid make!

  • I am a oner of T68 and i think it is the best gsm ever.

  • Cool phone!!! has everything! and I bet that SonyEricsson's 3G phones will cick ass!!!

  • Check out the samsung t100,anyway anyone want a Ericsson communicam for 150 Euros????Leave a message +30944829690

  • have you seen the new philips fisio 820, it may just be better than this one!!! You can buy it next month....

  • it is god but is expensive(very)

  • write 2 me

  • a total wicked phone!!!!!!!!!! a bit 2 big but that would not put me off getting it. as good as liverpool f.c (well maybe not!) get dis phone, i wan2!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

  • its a bbbbbbaaaaadddd phone

  • Check out Sony Ericssons official website, they have the manuals there. Don't remember the URL exactly, something like www.sonyericssonmobile.com, look it up on a searchengine.

  • Anyone who can share his english manual for t68, or can give an address for the manual....thanks!

  • Japan!!-- u stupid muppet!! we live in Europe!!!!

  • I think that T68 is the best phone from what I've seen. I can say that it's the best phone for me!!

  • and what about the FOMA? can you compare it please to T68? is that a phone or a new system for mobile communication? if its the best, maybe in japan only, correct me if im wrong :) i do know that there are four suppliers of 3G equipment in japan and those are NEC, Fujitsu, Panasonic and Ericsson. 3 japanese company versus the swedish. ericsson still rules... peace!!!

  • its the best mobile that i have ever seen, but i cannot affored to buy one :(

  • Best phone on Earth? Are you kidding? You should take a look at what they're sporting in Japan. The new FOMA series puts everything in Europe and the Americas to shame.

  • a new bench mark handset!! the ultimate phone? u bet!! finally ericsson produce a excellnet handset

  • hej mr. bumbum, your T68 is not just simply the best, it is the ultimate mobile phone and it is definitely and absolutely the best. to all nokia fans, be a man, peace bothers!

  • i noticed theres a lot of comment about this fon, good or not so bad, its still the best fon on earth right now and not just better one, like what some of our friends here who compare it to nokia6310(for those with big hands) and nokia9210(for those who dont mind carrying a "brick") and for 8210, what can i say, its still the same with other nokia's except for FM. if you want a bunch of accessories and if you have money then try those expensive ericsson's accessories, niwey you can afford to buy those expensive fons, what more the accessory. and for those who are saying that T68 is so slow, try upgrading ur fon's SW to R2A and you can see the difference, you cannot compare the speed, not just to nokia, but to all available fon you have, coz T68 is much much faster. try it and you cannot lie to urself that ericsson has produced one of a kind fon. right now, nothing can compare to this fon, coz technology and style makes Ericsson T68 different and simply the best.

  • "Triband is useful, but only for those who regularly visit the USA"... What about those of us actually living in the USA?!?!

  • wicked phone!!!!!!!!!!!!!! only dumb f***ks can't use it!!!!

  • See my review of the 6310 - overall it is a better phone in term of usability, even if the T68 does have a few more features. The T68 weighs less, but it's also uncomfortably small and feels 'cheap' (even if it definitely isn't!). The T68's colour screen is a nice touch, but uses up battery power, and the 6310 has a much bigger battery than the T68 (1100 mAh as opposed to the 700 mAh of the T68). This is a key point. Triband is useful, but only for those who regularly visit the USA - otherwise it's not a very important feature. Overall, the 6310 is the better handset, no doubt at all.

  • too much talking is a waste of time.the t68 is only 84 grams with a colour screen and the most technologically advanced telephone at its size!right now at least!and if you�re patient enough and wait for the upgrade with the mms you�ll have a phone which after 2 years will still be at the peak of technology.the 3rd gen phones will come late and will cost double thew price of a t68!

  • Very Very Good

  • 1 point is 6310 110g T68 84g

  • use the key pad short cut you dumbo. i can navigate so much faster then the nokia 8210. and so fun to use since i can see almost all the shortcut number on the menu system. not needing to memorised the shortcut number for each option. even the main icon menu can be selected using the keypad (just match their postion on your keypad). nokia interface is so slooooow compare to T68.

  • OK Nokia v's ericsson experts, who can give me the definitive answer - 6310 or T68? Convince me with 3 reasons (for business and private use)! Thx

  • of you dont like this phone then sharap and dont even vote !!!!!!!!!!

  • although this is a great phone with great features overall it lags.. lags as in when you change between menus it take a little time to notice it or even when you scroll, it won't stop when you stop .. it'll stop a few names after u stop

  • The T68 would be a great phone - if it were a nokia! Great looks, great size, great features, shame about the operating system. Press the green call key on your nokia and get a list of the last 10 people you communicated with, press the same key on your ericsson and if bill has called you, you've called bill, and he has called you back, but you missed the call, he's in there three times. I don't need bill in there three times - I just need a list of the people I speak to most often! POP3 email will be fantastic, when someone manages to make it work easily and reliably. I struggled to set it up, and the network techno-bods weren't a lot of help. Shame the on-board software hasn't got the ability to sift out formatting information in the incoming email, instead it just abandons the transfer leaving you with header only. Tell all your friends that you need simple emails, then if you can live with the limit of 300 characters in your outgoing mails it'll work reasonably well. Wait a minute though, isn't it easier to send 2 text messages! Nokia aren't doing POP3, wonder why!? SMS on the T68, as in all ericssons, isn't as user-friendly as your 5110 and pals. Too many key-clicks are required in too many situations. Ericsson, get some teenagers on the design team. Overall, the T68 is a winner. Technically, its great, but too many user-unfriendly niggles will prevent long-term relationships with users. I keep my 3210 in my bedroom draw and stroke it occasionally, don't expect to find my T68 in there in 6 months time. Its a stepping stone.

  • This phone is a piece of SHIT! I bought it three different phone and different colors. But it never give me good receptions. It shows not service or drop calls.... Not worth paying $400 for this junk!

  • I think this is the best phone Ericsson ever made! I hav an Ericsson T20e now but i'm trying to get the mony to buy a T68

  • if any body wants to buy a t68 4 �300 in mint condition with box, manual, charger and the gold colour then text me. Uk Only Unless u Pay shipping charges. +447801357724

  • Well what can you say!A brillant phone wow great the bluetooth is also great!! Ericsson has made a great phone

  • The best handset on the world PLEASE with all them stupid people with Nokia note the this kicks Nokia arse. T68 what a handset wow!!Tri band GPRS, HSCSD, WAP, Blue tooth, internal modem, and areial, and a colour screen PLUS much more stuff.

  • Ottimo cellulare sotto tutti i punti di vista!

  • I must sat that this must be the best phone in the world,please before all u start, I have used Nokia's for 7 years and found them to be brilliant, but for the last 8-12 months they have not produced a decent handset,Nokia 8310 i had a couple of months,it;s just a upbeat version of a Nokia 8210i, and people are right nokia 9210 is a pda not a phone,its a brick. The Ericsson has style and excellnet colour display and user menu maps. If Nokia keep this up they will certtain lose thier market postion. Well done Ericsson.

  • Look at the Nokia 9210 if you want to see the best phone ever built.(VERY POWERFUL)

  • My final verdict is that this phone is too small - even for women's hands! Great functionality, but the size is a joke. The Nokia 6310 is the best GPRS phone out there - a serious phone for serious adults.

  • The T68 is a great phone, read someone wanting a 8310 instead without a color display.. do you want a black-white tv aswell? The joystick and the look-and-feel is fantastic compared to the plastic 8310... no, buy this phone and you'll be happy with it!

  • ive got an reicsson t68, can anyone tell me where i cn get some decent logos and ringtoes from?

  • Got one of these T68's for sale. About a month old. Perfect Condition. Asking �250.

  • Great phone, best I ever had! (And I've had almost every type of phone). A little slow but hope to fix that with upgrade! All the people that say this it isn't worth the money, either are stupid or just do not have the phone! By the way, do not compare it with the 9210, cause thats more a PDA than a phone! (as big and heavy as a brick)

  • I think you all just gealous for not having a t68,its compreensivel..., They say that t68 its slow belive me thats a lie, at least my its fast, except its a bit slow when you save messages,but only in that case

  • hey!i just bought the t68 i have it 1 week now!i can tell you that its a good fully loaded phone!!!there is only 1 bad thing about it that the battery lasts 2 days,but the good thing is that it recharges in 1 hour and 25 minutes.this phone is a piece of art!!!and the next month an upgrade version software is coming!!!hi meni!!!

  • Hey people, I currently own Nokia 8310. But I think that Ericsson T39 is wayy better. The 256 colors of T68 makes it very slow. The battery isn't that much. Get T39. It's the best.

  • ericsoon t 68 is a gr8 phone its tri band thts gud nokia doesnt make any phone tri band god knows y..its v light compared to the 154 g of nokis 7650 weight of a microsoft mouse i think so normal mouse i go for t68

  • I have a Q, posted it before: "Could anyone please give me some information about the card games in the T68? Are they similar to the ones in Windows etc? Are they good/advanced? Gratefull for answers."

  • Worst phone I've ever used! Very SLOW (software R1C), crashes many times in a day. Can't read display in direct sunlight! Stand-by time is about 24 hrs...

  • T68 is the best phone. Nokia 7650 is not a world phone ....if any one have any Q? let me know ....

  • T68 microphone is too sensitive, can't recive loud noise.

  • I think the Ericsson T68m and the T39m is the best Handy of the world! Congratulation Ericsson!!!

  • Hi, I think this is the best mobile phone I've seen till now. It has everything, everything what one mobile phone can have. I like Ericsson as well because there is many accessories for ericsson phones, for example: MP3-player, Camera, Radio FM... etc. At the end I must say that I fell in love for this phone and I will buy it as soon as possible... Bye

  • now i have got used to the menu system, i am realing getting to love this phone and what it can do.

  • Could anyone please give me some information about the card games in the T68? Are they similar to the ones in Windows etc? Are they good/advanced? Gratefull for answers.

  • Article in English about all the hidden games:

  • yes BEN is right i saw the same in the www.unwired.gr

  • Hi SW With you all the way there (unfortunatelly you misspelled "stupit", just a type-O I know :-)). But what I really wanted to say is that there are HIDDEN GAMES in the T68!!! Check out www.mkf.se It's a shame that the site is on swedish, but I think you can figure out which part that is about the hidden games. Games is "spel" on swedish.

  • To Mr. "I hate Ericsson" You could begin by hating your self for being so fxxking stupit, then you could use some English lessons and finally, do NOT rate things that you obviously do not know how to operate. Did you, by the way, steal this phone ? Because you dont sound smart enough to have a hi-paying job. One more thing Einstein : Do you honestly think that anyone will consider your brilliant rewiev with a name like "I hate Ericsson" ? ? Be stupit somewhere else !

  • the standy-by time of this cell is only 1 day. I thought is will last for about 300hrs. changing time is too long. crap fone and lots of lots of glitches. WORST ericsson is trying hard!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!1

  • best phone ever made!!!! congratulations ericsson!!!!

  • it's really all about that most ppl here used to nokia interface already. hence they can't bear the trouble of learning new interface. just like moving from win98SE or window2000 to window XP. Some complain that T68 is slow, damn slow which i think they must have lightning fast finger especially when doing sms. I also dunno what's the big deal about a tiny fraction slower response with T68. as if it comes to an end of the world. If you want a faster communication just call him/her instead of using sms. Anyhow nokia phone especially the 8310 isn't really something new or spectacular, approx the same software as the 8210 series. nothing major have change and even in terms of hardware. Somehow i just wonder what's so special about that phone. Compare to T68, 8310 is just a lame and basic phone with a cheap inbuild MONO FM radio????? i can do much better than that with other cheap radio.

  • These opinions are unbelieveble ! ! If you are dedicated Nokia lover and there for enjoying frequent trips to the next Nokia workshop and getting crappy service, Then you should NOT be rating this phone for fxxk sake. Why are Nokia users "loosing it" over this phone? Come on, people ! The "specs" on this phone (compered to size) are simply unmatched by any other mobile, including Nokia, except it ! And also except that it WORKS like a charm. Simply look at the ratings on this website and others. ( talking about ratings, Nokia people should not even go there, sorry !) I like many Nokia models and I own a few, but I also own a T68 and its my best mobile so far. Nokia might come out with a better model later. So please, you Nokia fanatics out there, rate your own damn mobiles and reserve your time rather for E-mailing Nokia H.Q. demanding better service ! You KNOW, as every Nokia user old or new knows, that you need it. If there are any real owners of a T68 out there, then congratilations ! ! - You know what I mean :)

  • Great phone, its got all the features that all nokias dont except the 83, u cant compare with the 92 because thats a fucking office organiser u idiot, i love the different control and look which nokia can never seem to overcome in their overcommon models, a great phone overall.

  • right now the t68 if you�ve got money to spend is the best mini phone!and don�t compare it with the 9210,cause 9210 is something else!what i can say is that the t68 is much better than the 8310,what i�m going to miss is the currency converter that the t68 hasn�t gotand the radio nothing else

  • (*)(*) wow kaip papukai

  • Blt zajabys mobilekas tik kodel kainos nerasot iee gaidziai

  • the best

  • 9210 is a combination of a conversional PDA/phone. If you want a PDA, then buy it. As a phone it suffers many of the new functions that you expect from a phone priced that high, plus it's very big and heavy. T68 on the other hand givs you all you can expect from a phone (plus more), it's light, but it doesn't offer the function of a PDA (and costs less)

  • first off it's always better if you give it a try yourself. 9210 seems to bulky to me. T68 can never replace 9210 because of much less function. but it should be able to last most people until 3G. go to a shop and give it a play

  • ok peter thanks (gia tin simbouli) also this is for thomas jenkins i didin't expecting you to say me that this phone hasn't any problem at all. i new it from the first moment that it came to greece. i just wondering that:: if in the end of the year 2001 we have this perfect mobile phone that wheights 84gr it has a color screen it also has 3 mb memory* bluetoth , gprs , mms ems sms and all the others and its full upgratable what we will have in a year? and i am thinking know is it worthing to wait? and as i see the anwser is no.

  • i am on the verge of buying this new t68 but im having second opinions about it Which one is more satisfying T68 Or 9210 which one would u rather have tell me please thanx

  • jeph can you tell me the link where it says a newer model of T68 is to be announced next year?

  • re oxin rain ksexna to peiramatiko sony ericsson tha argisei!!!3 trimino tou 2002!!!kai blepoume!!!

  • what i heaered is only a roumer from a special ericsson site. so nothing is sure yet , but i think this is a must if ericsson wanted to be the leader. but what i can advice and im sure about that u can wait till 1Q 2002, for an upgraded version of it, which will has some missing options which are mentioned on the official site, and are not on the latest one , lik: Image handling Notes Photo Album Picture Phonebook chat mms extra calender( it has only the normal one now) and to shot a short clip with the cam( but i think t68 has it now:),, so if u cant wait, u r not a heavy phone user , and u think these options or some of them u dont need, u can go for it now... its still spuerb, no phone on the market can be compared to it , and mabye for long time, u have to use it, and it will really satisfy u... it has options which u dont even thought about it ... also for the new stuff u will get most of them later , cuz u can upgarde the software when its available.. one last thing , dont listen to ppl who says its bad phone , the joysteck is bad and the battery is not good , ,,, etc,, its something percentage, so thats why they give us warnty , so we can change the bad one , with a good new one.. if u like the mobile, and i wanted it , go and buy it... and u will thank me for this:)

  • well i am wondering if i should take the new t68 or wait for the new phone that sony ericsson will make . what do you think ? is it worthing waiting ? also this is for > (ellada edo)

  • to be hounest, i liked this phone from the firt time i saw it on the net, and im one who likes ericsson little bit more than anyphone , but i agree to take other brand if it was good, when i first saw this phone on the market i liked it more, its superb , very hi tech, and it has everything u want and more, but i was little bit disapointed with the color , i expected something better, but its ok after all , just think its the first mobile with color , so its first of its kind, and the nokia is at least 6 months far to be seen on market , so i think 6 months is more than enoagh to make new things, specailly with mobile world.. also it seems that ericsson rushed with this phone to win the market , and as i heard there is a roumer that there is an upgraded version will be released directly after the 7650 , which will has the same missing option which 7650 has , specially the color , but after all, i think the phone is still spuerd, use it and u will know this..

  • I have been using the Ericsson T68 four weeks now. I started off really liking the phone, it was different in look to most of the other mobiles out at the time and the fact it had a colour screen seemed that it would be work better as a personal organiser with its higher quality screen. The problem is, it does look nice'ish on the web and in the pictures, but when you actually get the phone and use it for a week or so you kind of go off it ( or I did at least ). Its just that the shape kind of irritates you after a while and that silly joystick-button is absolutely awful to use! The buttons (and it seems to have been said already - so its not just my handset) are really tacky/cheap that feel as though they will break after some heavy texting. Its not really customisable beyond the screen-background, so you can't make the phone your own - with no changeable covers (ahhh, the love of nokia). So, after yearning so badly for a Nokia again I exchanged it for the Nokia 8310 and 2 covers. I now have a phone that feels wonderful to touch and is a great fashion product too. The T68's are going to age very quickly I think in terms of look-and-feel. I'm more than happy with my 8310 for several reasons I shall not go into here. If your not a fan of Nokia, then check out some of the other phones that are available, because the T68 is a phone you may regret having bought.

  • well 6 month ok i still can't tell then. but honestly i now hardly use the joystick cause i always use the keypad which is so much faster. and even in the menu selection i also use keypad cause with 8 lines of text how much more options are there that you can't see?

  • Hi! I�m from Portugal and I must say that the Ericsson T68 is making rather sucess here dispite it�s cost! But we the portuguese are great critics and the problem with the 70 caracteres when your writing an SMS using T9 it�s destroying the T68!!!!!!!!! I�ve heard from a guy that works in Ericsson here in Portugal that in the year 2002 there�s going to be an upgrade that will "cure" this bug and add some awsome stuff like Chat, Caller photo and the long expected Image Gallery! Have you heard any thing about this in your contrys?

  • i went to an ericsson service and i asked them how much would it cost me to repair the joystick in the t68 if it happens to break after the 1 year guarantee.its not very expensive it goes around 14000 drachmas or 42 euromoney

  • Why T68 is not compatible with Nokia? I can't send pictures to any Nokia phones, but I can receive them. This is stupid. If I can send pictures only to other T68 phones, where is the point? How many friends with this phone you have?

  • have had this phone for 3 weeks now and have begun to regret it. i have noticed that the joystick is showing signs of ware already after some heavy use :( .. buttons are also far too loose and feel as though will break sooner rather than later.. wish i'd have bought the Siemens SL45 now (didnt because it had been out almost a year.. so wanted newer technology!) .. check this phone out in store before buying

  • well actually g2000 a technician on mobiles told me this.he said that if you are a heavy user on the joystick it won�t last more than 6 months!!!and i�ll give you an advice that he gave me don�t use for enter the joystick by pressing it in prefer the yes button!!!

  • problem with joystick? where u heard about it? my joystick counter already hit 10000+ but still works like charm. show us the link where there's problem with joystick. the only problem i had was many of my friend tot it's a new 8850 (well obviously they aren't very good with mobile)

  • so i guess there is nothing wrong with the t68�s joystick or not?

  • very poor quality handset. excellnet featuers. brillant colour dispaly. good menu paths. why can't they use better materails? Simens quality. Nokia menus paths, Ericsson technology, = prefect handset.

  • best phone i ever had, it combines everything you need now and in the future had nokias and siemens before, but this is the ultimate phone now. batt lifetime is great and phone works perfect in usa

  • I have had my T68 for nearly a week and i think it is excellant. The screen and joystick are brillinat aswell as the GPRS.Haveing a colour photo as a screen saver is just a bit better than the ones on my 3310

  • I'd just liket to say that this phone is extremely over-rated. It is an excellent phone up to a point, its looks are very nice indeed. But if you spend more than a few days with it you soon realise that everything that made you want it in the first place is incorrect. The colour screen is a "gimmick" and does not add to the phone at all.. there lies the rub, most of the features are not really useful or required. I exchanged the phone shortly before my 14 days were up and replaced it with the Nokia 8310. I adore the RADIO on it.. its very useful, its a feature that will be used.. and do I miss the colour screen and the fragile 'case' of the Ericcson T68.. NO! Compare the two and you'll conclude the same..

  • i�m thinking of buying the t68 next week,but i�ve just heard that some t68�s have problems with the joystics!or if you use too much the joystick it does not work so well after some months.if anybody knows anything please tell me!!!thankssss!

  • excelent :)!

  • Ericsson shoots itself in the foot with the menu system. This phone is a no go. We can argue about this until the cows come home.

  • I am a phone-department manager in the biggest electronics store in Iceland (no.1 country in mobile ownership) and I can verify, after some use and testing, that this phone is a first rate product. Everything works as promised and then some. Simply the best mobile phone I have used. Lately I have prefered Nokia as an owner/user (not in sales , because of crappy service and frecuent faliure, believe me, I know) but now I am a proud owner of a great T68 phone.

  • This is the best-hightech phone ever ! Had it for about 2 weeks now,and everything is working perfect. standby time 365 Talk time 11.20 :)

  • Where can I bought the "High CAPCITY Battery" for Ericsson T68?????? DOes anyone selling here?????????

  • Hello! I already have the Ericsson T68! Although our network in my country doesnt have yet the WAP setting for T68, that's why I cant download the background pictures. Anyone here with good heart!?! Pls. send me some colored pictures in my ericsson T68... My number is +639194133675 THANKS!!!!!!!

  • thx john... i visited ur website and its kool anywayz.. do u know where i can get a T68 software?

  • Go to this web site to see SonyEricssons Answer to the Nokia 7650

  • hey DMX the recieved call and dialled list to see it go to the call option that is 1 row third option click call list their you see the on the left arrows and phones the green phone icons are the number that you called(dialled list)and the blue ones are the recieved calls alright?By the way go to my wap site that is only for the T68 phone lots of info and Background images and links

  • i just bought the T68 its da bomb... could any T68 owner tell me if it could tell u the recieved calls n dialed cuz i cant see them in ma list.... any1 plz answer as sooon as posible

  • Please import it to Thailand in GSM 2 watt network soon....Please Please Please (*#*)

  • i think u got a faulty handset. 10 times in a week? it doesn't make sense at all. i am a heavy user on mobile the only worse charging experience i ever had is with the nokia 8850, i charge it 3-4 times a week. this T68 only needs 1-2 charging a week for me.

  • G2000, I charged battery about 10 times (in a week!) when I owned that phone, and there were no improvement.

  • This is the ultimate wap site for the T68 owners i made a mistake in the previous one below the my wapjag..castor etc etc The one to look up is Here you can change background images on your phone exchange your ideas about this great phone and other MMS supported phones Hundreds of colored images and lots of info with links to other greatwap sites dont miss it and leave a mssage there while your at it

  • Ive changed heaps of phones ive had em all ive been a Nokia fan for a long time and i gotta tell you all mobile phones are a habit meaning that all the functions seem hard or dissapointing at start but after a week or so you dont even want to see your old phone.The T68 looks loke a millenium ahead of the other phones COLORED SCRREN ETC ETC.Cmon even us previous Nokia fans gotta admit SonyEricsson 10 points Others 0.Im awaiting the Nokia 7650 to be honest but come to think about it why not add a mediacam to it so much for a nokia 7650 with double the weight!!!84grams to 154 grams.By the way a good wap sight for downloading hundreds of background images

  • I am a owner of this phone for about 3 weeks now its the most highest tech phone ive ever had and well im IMPRESSED

  • I think this new phone is GR8 and I am looking forward to buying it.

  • Jooseppi, your battery hasn't been optimised yet moron. mine has been over the 6th cycle already and the battery performance is still improving. i can get 5H talktime out of it or 8.5days of standby now. initially only 3H talktime and 7days of standby. sounds like you are just another nokia-only person.

  • Piece of . Worstest phone that I have ever user. Very, very, VERY slow (especially in SMS editor), crashes many times in a day and battery has to be charged once in a day with about 10-20 min calls, 5 SMS's and about 1 hour of GPRS dial-up connection (8310 works 2-4 days with same values!) I returned my phone back to shop (and they sent it back to Ericsson) and got my money back.

  • Coooooooolest phone ever!

  • just got my T68..and its superb......cool colour screen and lots of cool funtions..must say its the best phone in the world....even with nokia's new models , no one can matches T68's stylish and cool design.....even nokia 7650 which is big and heavy can't compare to T68........feel sorry for nokia that they just couldn't come out with a small phone with colour screen...all the new models are just very little change from previous models with limited functions....certaintly T68 is the best and certaintly well worth the money !!! I feel very happy about my choice !!!!

  • The T68 is basically a ladies' handset; you need tiny hands to grasp it comfortably. I would prefer a phone exactly like the T68, but 1.5-2cms higher. The price on BT Cellnet/Vodafone is OK, if you are a monthly subscriber, but the SIM free cost is around �380-�400! I'm gooing for a Sony J70 instead - only �155 SIM free!!

  • Q: 1. Has any one tested "up to 11h" talk time? Is this real? 2. Aslo how many names does the address book carry? Nokia 8310 takes in 500. I have been using Nokia for8 years and was thinking about buying the Nokia 8310 but must admit T68 could be a better choice.

  • this fone looks UGLY... the nokia 8310 looks better... n if u skrached this fone.. u cant replace the cover... while in the 8310 u can

  • Those crazy Swedes, when will they learn to leave the mighty moose in the forest alone. Excellent phone though.

  • it seems to be a very good mobile as we know from nokia, but i think its not that danger to ericsson t68 , cuz of the t68 has many featuers that 7650 doesnt have, like the tri-band and ems and on the other hand the 7650 has featuers that t68 doesnt have, so each phone is targeting on different market and different ppl. not to forget that this phone has only 3 more featuers which we can say its something new, which is the web-cam , the resolution is better , and the operating system is new . other things are normal and everything it has u can find it in the t68 and more , and a big disadvantage for this phone is the size and the weight. i think those 2 mobiles r the same rate , its just about the ppl and which one they will like to buy , cuz i dont think this phone cant kill t68 as many ppl r thinking.

  • Found this rather intresting picture of a concept phone from Sony Ericsson. ­ yes, that is a memorystick on the right :)

  • After 5 years of using various Nokia's the T68 is the finest phone I've used in a long time. Beautiful screen and almost every feature you could want. Superb phone!!!

  • and what is ripple

  • what is the game q and what the solitair

  • Just purchased my T68 from Vodafone, and sticking my Orange Sim Card in it. Cost �180 plus have to pay �13 for 12 months on the contract. Great stuff though! Well worth it so far. Speech is loud and clear, and any fears of poor reception have proved groundless so far. any questions to [email protected] PS. Just charged up, and it estimates I have 340 hours of standby or 8 hours of talk time left! :D

  • I,m going to order my T68 tommorow and i think that i will like it! But i would like to ask any T68 owners out there GOOD or BAD?????

  • as a n6150 user: no backlights on the T68 keys makes SMS/email v hard during the night regardless of the display.. Alarm is a bit naff compared to n6150's alarm. Lack of information regarding email/data connection error messages and no debug output for failed data connections/email etc. this is normally not nessecary for mobile phones but since this phone has bluetooth/IR/pop3/smtp/wap it would be nice to see where you4re going wrong... beautifully sexy phone. lovely features, but does not feel rugid - I can bounce my 6150 on the floor (and have done 100s of times over the last 3 years) and know it'll survice. Not sure if the T68 will survive the drops. Joystick feels alien at the start but have got used to it now and am really enjoying it - Too clumsy for playing fast games like Tetris on higher levels:( Its a great new toy!!

  • This phone is the best of a bad bunch. Technically it is the most advanced available, the appearance is elegant and attractive, but it is far from faultless. The most obvious problem with this handset is its very small size - 10cm in length is simply not enough to fill the hand of an adult comfortably, especially that of a man. 11.5-12cms would have been ideal. The keys, which are very small, are also too close together for comfort, even more so than on the Nokia 8210. It's easy to key in the wrong digit by mistake. The colour screen is good, but it can't be very big on a phone of this size and it seems too cramped for what it can display. Last but not least, the signal reception leaves something to be desired; I have an Ericsson R520 and in the T68 the reception is significantly weaker. With regard to the price, I have seen it on sale in the UK for �390 as a SIM free phone. This is �140 more than the Siemens S45, amongst others. Is it worth the extra money? In my opinion, no. My verdict: good overall phone with excellent functionality and superb looks, but as a practical communications tool it simply does not offer value for money and is unsuitable for anybody with remotely large hands.

  • quality very poor compared to Siemens. Feels cheap and nasty. A real shame as this is a very good looking handset. T68 again very poorly built.

  • trabajo en orange en santo domingo manejo cualquier tipo de telefono no importa que marca sea pero me gustaria aprender a manejar ese me gustaria comprarlo lo pago como sea por targeta de credito como sea mi telefono es 8516832 en efectivo en dolares como sea como quieran

  • very nice....... expensiv althout

  • I have used all new phones but this is the best one I have used so far. pro: nice build, colour screen, small and light, nice games(6 games) and agenda. good battery life, gprs and bluetooth for the future, nice background pictures. negative: weak antenna strength, some minor bugs, sound quality can be improved. Best phones: 1 ericsson t68 2 ericsson t65 3 siemens sl45,me45,s45 4 nokia 8310

  • the best fone in the fucking market

  • This phone is pretty tight but receptions really sucks as Nokia 8290!!! Not worth of money to spent on this unit... Although, the battery last pretty long!

  • Could someone tell me what the calendaring functionality is like on this phone, can it be used easily as a personal diary ?

  • I just received my T68 today and I'm really impressed by the quality of this phone ! It is simply awesome. I previously had Nokia 8310 en the reception and sound quality of the T68 is a lot better, not to mention the design and the colour screen which are both excellent. Conclusion: if you have the money, you should buy it. Great phone, good job Ericsson !

  • ericsson t68 fucks nokia 8310 and all other products of nokia is the best mobile with the best suport from the biggest than nokia ericsson . all the ericsson fans should go to the nokia 8310 page in this site and vote it with 1 . ERICSSON fucks small nokia and motorola and alcatel and all the others .

  • nice mobile

  • better than 8310!!!

  • I still don't know whether it's worth buying this phone now, waiting for future improved versions or buying another phone (eg the Siemens S45) now. Any advice? I'm in two minds as to whether I should go for this one or the S45. To be honest I always preferred this one, but the price difference is substantial.

  • the upgrade for MMS will be free and will be here early next year (or something like that...). According to what I've seen it will add picture phonebook as well, is that true?

  • T68 does not have MMS !!

  • anyone in any country know where i can buy any t68's wholesale??????????? if so, e-mail me at the above address. thankyou.

  • my t68 did hang once when i play the erix game. but it's a complicated desision for the phone as i managed to kill both the moving X hence it hang. I mean i trap the two moving-X into my shading region.

  • this fon rulz

  • Hi,I have the kunar grey version of the phone it work very wel but it has hung 3 times ill now once will on the wap.emoiler.net site and once while playing the game etrix.Did any one have the same problem.Apart fom this this phone kills all nokia pones to date,I hada struggling time with he 9210 and still am having.Also the customer support of ericsson has really become good.Can any one let me know if they had the hanging problem. People do not think if you have the cash get the phone mustu

  • how much ericsson T68? pleace

  • Had this phone for about 3 weeks now. Not bad, but the menus are not very intuitive, the response is slow (press key and wait... wait...) The battery life is reasonable, but not brilliant (GPRS off). The build quality is good, but how the tacky plastic joystick and the top two buttons got past quality contol is beyond me. The IR port does not work very well. Getting files to xfer is a real hit and miss afair, especially with gif backgrounds. The GPRS does not work yet, a problem with Vodafone I assume. Finally, the e-mail reader does not function and give the user no indication why, despite all the setting being veryified. Also, Windows XP is not currently supported by the Syncing software, so beware if you use that OS. In conclusion, it is an impressive piece of technology in such a small size, but it suffers from all the problems of a first generation product; bugs, poor man-machine interface, network problems etc. The responce lag though is unforgivable in my opinion. Should you get this phone? If you want to stay ahead and plan on upgrading often, then yes - you will like it. If it is a one off expensive purchase that you want to last a while, then wait. When Nokia builds a phone of similar specification, you know that Ericsson will have something to worry about. I frankly can not wait to see all this technology utilised by Nokia; a company that understands how the consumer likes things to work.Maybe the fact that they are being slow in producing a rival product shows that they think the technology integration needs maturing before it is unleashed - a fact exemplified by the T68.

  • The shittest handset in the universe has arrived..All Ericcson stink! terriable to use,,

  • where do you find the manual of the t68? tanx

  • its a fucking pile ogf shite

  • Regarding Picture Phone Book ... To "Yoonoo"; asking a question about this. Ericsson have removed this function from the final release of the phone.. Very dissapoiting ... You may NOT have a picture of your friend showing in the display when this person calls like you can on some other phones; e.g the NOKIA 9210... OCS, Norway

  • The T68; A bit dissapoiting !!! I have been always been using NOKIA, and now while I am waiting for the NOKIA 6310, a decided to try the Ericsson T68. One thing must be perfectly clear; when it comes to user-friendliness, NOKIA has always been, and still is ahead of Ericsson.. The T68 is a major improvement over earlier Ericcson models, but still not good enough to beat NOKIA, SORRY Ericsson !!.. First of all, I miss the oportunity to be able to save a contact �direclty� from within a unregistered number from e.g a missed call, or simply direct from punching in a number, and then be able to just "save contact", or "add number to contact". On Ericsson T68 you have to remember the Number in your head/or write it down on paper, then go in the contacts-menu, and add the contact and the number.. VERY VERY irritating and un-user-friendly ... Another things that irritates me is that a "birthday" is not an option in the calendar function, this is plain ridicilous of Ericsson.. And it is not possible to link an caleneder-event directly to a contact. E.g search for a friend of yours that you have saved, and put in an appointment with this person ... This is ridicilous of Ericsson. The so-called colour-screen is not that fascinating, only 256 colour graphics are allowed .. And the light and the contrast are pretty weak (probably to safe battery-life, and if you try to increase the contrast-level on the phone, it almost doesn�t show at all any improvement. The screen is a bit weak and �blur� .. Not in anyway �crystal sharp� as stated in an earlier thread on this forum. And mabye most irritating is; Ericsson have removed the ability to assign imported graphic-files to a contact-card. (So that you can have a picture of your friend showing in the display when this person is calling; like you can e.g on the NOKIA 9210). In a user-manual of the T68 available on the web, it says that this is possible, but in my official manual, it is NOT !! And after having tested the phone, extensively, the conclusion is; IT IS NOT POSSIBLE ! So beware people, this function is not available on the T68). The graphics you import from your PC can only be used as "Background Theme".. The graphics are sized max : 101x80 pixels, and only *.GIF files are accepted) Also the �keyboard� / �piano� function that should be available, is not.. I saw pictures of this on the web-manual, but Ericsson have removed it in the final release of the phone... The User manual is not very good.. And there is no Software bundled; either for PC or fot the Mac. This Software has to be downloaded from the net. There Is no way a person without extensive computer-skills will be able to transfer pictures to/from this phone and the pc. Shame ono you Ericsson !!! L The bundled rining-tones are boring, way to loud, and all just plain old typical Ericsson-sounds.. The phone does not have HSCD like the NOKIA 6310 (and other expensive phones).. But you�ll probably manage with GPRS if your network supports it.. All in all this is a pretty nice-phone, but It was a dissapointment in light of what I did expect. The phone is VERY small, mabye too small for some people, (for mee). They have adapted the ability to have several nmbers within one contact-name from NOKIA, this is great Ericsson.. They also have adapted the ability to have different rining-tunes for different names (This also from NOKIA). The phone is so small and �cute� that is almost hav a �feministic� look and feel, like the NOKIA 8310. The T68 has lot of functions, But it is a bit difficult to navigate in the menus compared to NOKIA�s menu system. The �joystick� is a good idea, but is a bit to sensitive some times. The phone has �Bluetooth� technology, and a lot of accesories are available, e.g a wireless portable hands-free. The lack of missing bundled software, and manuals of how to communicate with your T68 between your PC is also a dissapointment. I will continue to use this phone until the NOKIA 6310 arrives, and then we will see. A colour-screen of this poor quality is not a must, or a major advantage alone to NOKIA.

  • ericsson is so much better than nokia....it has better lookin phones, more useful phones and it has much much more functions plus nokia almost has no GPRS phones......and most importent nokia has no phones with built in bluetooth™ technology.......ericsson for ever!!!!!

  • just my curiousity..... Which color combination do you all think is better? I really like the phone.... I just dont like the color,... :( that's why i'm asking for opinion here...

  • More pictures of the T68!

  • OWNERS, Is there any problem w/ this ericsson T68 with so far?? I want to get it..... What are the color option??? I don't like gray........or gold..... Where can i find the price deal for this phone? THX!!!

  • Simply fabulous!!! I love this mini mobilphone!!! BYE Nokia!!!!

  • tim, how much is the contract you are paying? i mean how much is the line rental and how come it's only �150? i tot it's selling for �199 at carphonewarehouse

  • i have had a t68 for 2months now and i say its easily the best phone on the market by a long way nokia will need to come up iwth something amazing to beat this beauty. The sound quality is good but the features on the phone just puts it into an league. Mine only cost �150 on bt contract as well so well worth the money. Any question about the phone me and i will get bak to u. Cheers

  • Hihi...I am 23. By the way, can T68 users tell me whether T68's reception is worst than T39 or not?? Thanks !!!

  • I'm 34, for those who are interested! Personally, I prefer the Gold version of this handset, and I'm puzzled as to why it isn't on sale.

  • I have this is Lunar Grey �400 from themobilerepublic.com (UK). It really is amazing. It's small, VERY well built. The screen is crisp and clear even at the smallest font setting. The FW is a little on the slow side as far as T9 is concerned but elswhere it seems fine apart from when a WAP page has 3 or more links it slows again. Minor FW problems are not an issue when you have such a cutting edge piece of Kit. If you are not sure whether to get one I would suggest that you order one on a 'return in 14 days' option. This is the ONLY way you can decide. You really have to try it first. By the way, the Gold is not very nice.

  • how old are you all ? mark LV , caff , g2000

  • F**cking amazing piece of electrical engineering, I love this phone but was put off by its price of �300, untill I found it in the "Carphone Warehouse" magazine at �200. I am now going to get this beautey in 3 weeks time(as from Nov 4th 01). Cheers, DJ Silver

  • haha you are blid my poor mark OPEN your eyes not everybody is rich in the world moree than 50 percent of the world is very very poor !

  • OMFG this fone is the sweetst! its just 3g only 2.5 i htink ..GET IT!

  • Are you crazy or what? Who the hell earns $50 a month these days?! I earn around $50 every two hours!!

  • are you all rich and stupid? you must be crazy to give 600$ to a phone when people earn 50$ / month .

  • Is the software slow? As T20?

  • Does anyone know of a US dealer that seller the T68 phone?

  • So how's the reception?? Is it good or worst than other ericsson phone?? How about the sound quality on both end, does it have lot of background noise??

  • I'm waiting for my own T68 right now, I tried it last week and i can only say: AMAZING! great, just great... got to have it :)

  • sound quality is really good i think...its lound and clear..you can ofcourse reduce the volume..im not sure how the battery life is on the t39..nevver had it..but this does last long....joystick is easy to use..about themes..not too sure.......

  • The Gold T68 handset will be available from www.mistersuper.com from week beginning 5 November. You can preorder now.

  • cool but it is expensive

  • i've seen the actual one of silver gray color. looks very cool especially the color screen which is much better than the old siemens S25 ones. Mark LV where did you find out that the gold color version will be out on 5th november? i was about to get 8850 but since the price for both phones aren't that far away, think i'm gonna forget the 8850 now. Wes, where did u find the contract price of �106?? how much is the line rental per month?

  • The Gold coloured T68 will become widely available from 5th November onwards. I'll be buying this one instead of the boring Grey/Silver handset.

  • hello ... i liked this mobile very much. i m eager to know itz price .. and i want to know is that this mobile t68 of ericsson is available in market or not and wot abt the indian market do reply me soon zishan iqbal noorani

  • Chandru, How about the battery life, is it as good as T39?? Also, how�s the reception, is it good?? And what about the sound quality, loud and clear?? Is the joystick easy to use? And would you be able to download more themes to T68 other than those default themes?? Fianlly, would we be able to have free software to MMS once its available or have to pay for it?? Thanks for your advise anyway !!!

  • I like the hand set, though the price is not included. I will like to know where to get one in Dubai and the price it is going for there

  • cool!!!!! i want one!

  • Great!!!

  • Im getting this phone with a great contract for �109-00 worth getting I also want the Nokia 8850 someone also tell me what Bluetooth is I have a laptop and need internet access will this help please e-mail me

  • I've also finally got my hands on the phone. Very small! It would have been perfect had it been 1cm longer; as it is the keys are not spaced out enough. Apart from that it's a good phone, as good as any you'll find these days. Buy it.

  • hi caff..screen brightness is good! ringtones are loud, you can increse or decrease..u can store and make ur own...there is vibra alert..and eah it is strong..my impressions are its a good phone! better than nokia..even their latest release 8310 which i have..but then asgain..ur opinion might be different

  • Chandru, can you tell me your impression with T68?? How's the screen brightness and resolution ?? Does the ringtone loud enough and vibra strong??Is it worth the money??

  • finally got the phone!!!!!!!! ;)

  • Picture Phone Book is the ability to assign pictures to your contacts. This way when they call you, their picture appears on the screen.

  • now its only being released in UK on friday!! :(

  • What picture book?

  • I heard that Ericsson exluded the picture phone book from the first release of the T68. Any confirmation on that?

  • Chandru, Just go to the Extele website. They have their number there - call them. I would imagine the price is around �400 plus postage.

  • hi mark, do you know how much extele is selling the t68s for? please let me know ASAP. thanx

  • These guys told me they will have the T68 on Monday or Tuesday:

  • Very good phone, not bad at all...

  • knew that ;) sony and ericsson merged :)

  • No, T68 is NOT Sony-Ericsson, it is ERICSSON! Read the text on the phone and you will see. This phone was revealed before Ericsson and Sony announced their joint-venture! T68 is Ericsson and it is perfect!

  • Ericsson T68 not are Ericsson!!. T68 is Sony Ericsson -name.

  • im surely buying this phone ;) im getting it for 455pounds on monday or tuesday, anyone interested in buying one email me ASAP at [email protected]

  • Check out this link and you will vote 10 for Ericsson T68!

  • mistersuper doesnt have the phone yet! i just called them up........

  • hi mark and everyone else...im in UK..so thats not a problem...but is it reliable to buy from them?? have u done so before? just asking, coz i really want to buy this phone and am thinking if from them or not.......thanx

  • Mistersuper delivers in Europe only - NOT in the USA!! They are a Belgian company. The stuff in Ebay is VERY overpriced - I wouldn't buy anything there.........

  • Quality!

  • This is being pre-phone is being sold at a few online stores already. Mistersuper unfortunately does not deliver outside of the US, but some others do. If your interested in buying a T68 you should check out Ebay (do a search for T68). There already a bunch of people selling them there. Good luck

  • is it reliable to buy from mistersuper.com, can someone please let me know. thank you

  • The T68 is available NOW! Go here and buy it:

  • The BEST pictures yet!! This phone is AMAZING!!!

  • hello...i would like too buy this phone,but i don't know the price of it and i'm really interested in....so pls give me the price and how can i have it...can u ship me this phone and soo on.....etc...

  • Why do people think that this phone has no asthetic appeal? It's sleek and compact. Also, since when is fashion more important than function? 256-color display, MMS, and Bluetooth make this the most advanced phone out there. I suspect that all the people saying this phone "sucks" are just biased toward Ericsson. Fine, all you people that feel that way can go play with your Nokia 8310, which may be stylish, but still has no MMS, no Bluetooth, and a small B&W display.

  • T68 is coming soon in stores. 3990FIM (669,46�)

  • This phone changes my point of view to Ericsson! Are American service providers support EMS service? Because I bought a T39 HK version, however that has Chinese input instead of EMS.

  • Chris, you may well be right, but as of now the T68 is still the best of the bunch in Europe and America. The alternative is to emigrate to Japan!

  • I'm sure it will be a nice phone but it's spec is just a poor version of tons of phones you can get in Japan which have HTML, JAVA, 16-32 channel sound, thousands of colours (literally) and all for probably less than half the price this will cost to people like us. The rest of the world needs to catch up with Japan, they already released their next generation of phones this week with full colour high quality video conferencing and broadband internet connections and were just getting phones with the same spec as phones they had 5 years ago now!

  • Would be awesome if it had HTLM browser with colour image handling and GPRS and even Pop3/smtp email. Pointless to sacrifice weight and sieze for a colour screen if there is no HTLM browser. It pretty ok but PRIZE?

  • I need to buy T68 to finish my WAP video server which will allow to get user of t68 video (home web camera office cammera) via gprs and internet . If anybody knows where i can get it send me sattelite message from my web page : Thank you Regards David N. Farinic

  • T68 is an okay looking phone.. besides it's 256color display.. nothing really special about it.. i think t39 have a better look and feel than t68.. better yet.. panasonic's gd75 have the best look.. so far. what else? motorola's v60?

  • To all, - Please let me shares a kind of information for Ericsson new Model T68 whenever it will become available to buy over the internet. Please advise. Thanks San Jose, California. Thursday 9/27/01...6:00pm Pacific time

  • !!!MORE PHOTOS OF THE T68!!! Just go here for the amazing snaps:

  • I would like to knowe the price of T68. pleas if you send it for me today. 26/09/2001

  • Chakes, please give us some examples of a phone with really good looks - I'm curious. Let's just say we have a difference of opinion on the T68.

  • I will say it again: this is a very ugly phone despite what Mark LV says. He obviously likes the girly mallrat looks of this phone.

  • Bullshit. This is a much better looking phone than all the other Ericsson phones - bar none. The T65 is a teenager's phone; the T68 is for adults!

  • This is a very ugly phone. What a shame because it is a technical tour de force. If they had wrapped it in the T36's or T65's body, this would have been the mobile phone of the decade.

  • Nice phone!

  • 2 new Ericsson Phones revealed today...

  • i cant understand some ppl here may be sick and hate ericsson ! how come they talk about bugs and problems and the phone is not in the market anywhere in the world ! so far as i have been reading about this phone .. its unmatched !

  • This phone S-U-C-K-S !!!!!!!

  • HI! i like ur mobil;e very mch but i can't purchase it caz I am from a poor man from apoor country. but i appreciate ur work,, and will pray for u thanks

  • a

  • THE T68 MANUAL HAS ARRIVED!! IT'S HERE:

  • I like it.

  • ATTENTION!! The T68 is now available for pre-order!! Go to this site for all the exciting news:

  • GO TO NEXGEAr.COM then go to Comunicasia photo galllery , see a real photo of t68 :IT IS UGLY !!!!!!!!!!! and it is gonna costs at least 600$ !!!

  • when & where can I get it any free trial

  • No comment!It is fantastic!

  • hello

  • bugs, what ericsson is known for!

  • Oh shit! Problems, problems and more problems.........

  • Just got info from friend, working with Ericsson factory that they wait with sell off T68 because of serious display problems as Nokia's sometimes seem tohave. They are going to study the software of the display again, and might have to make a new development in this as well. Realeas is suspended until at least 1st or 2th Q 2002.

  • that's what I mean. People are crazy about features on GSM,s If they can ring is not important anymore. Don't use yr brains man.... \\\\go to toys for yo and buy a dol or play gsm and yr the man on the beach. That's what yr kind of people did years ago as well. GROW UPP MEN and sleep tide...

  • People are crazy about what??... Now one used this phone, and all like it . why?? Becouse of the good and nice outside few??? Crazy. Is it good??? Now one know's yet. Its nce to se, new things, but are you using it?? A phone is to phone, not to play games, or impres girls in funzy beachclubs. Come on guy's grow upp people. If you buy a phone which has to be small and light just buy a Nokia 8210 for example. Yes i know they have sometimes problems with software or display, but people threw it in there handcase as a bunch of keys, and change frontplate twice a day. These phones are very nice things but it's a lot of electronica, and you have to be carefull with those things, so people be realistic. time is goiing further, and afther this "nice" t-68 a much nicer and more "inteligent" phone is coming on the market. So enough to think about i'nt it?? take car, and prosit enjoy life.

  • I hope that ericsson can keep their releesing time!!!! couse i �m going to buy one! And i hope you�ll also do it!!!!!! couse this is the best phone ever been on the market!!! I LOVE T68!!!!!!

  • I want one.

  • it is a very good shape, features Price ???? Pls, if any one now somthing about it's price

  • well while i'm not really convinced either, East, if you look at the pics from the various sites you do see that the screen is easier legible than a grayscale, especially with colored icons in the menu... this is just a first step with a "new" technology

  • But...What the point of having a color screen that is absolutely minuscule?!The phone really looks great but...i think there is probably some useless features that make the cost be higher

  • this phone sucks

  • I hope the software isn't buggy.

  • Can i get this bastard in the uk?

  • Check this one out - SOME MORE PICS OF T68M!

  • When will this T68 available in the market,merely here in Saudi Arabia?Also,is this unit be compatible in the Philippines' GSM Networks? Hoping for your immediate response! Thank You & More Power!

  • Only letdown is the colors.......would be great to see one in alu-silver. What do you think about the 2 colors ? I think the Orange looks great, but it's more like a girl-color. The grey looks a littel doll....but still OK to me.......but not exactly spectacular. Mt. T68

  • Quinn, the joystick is not gonna break because its very short !!!

  • New pictures of the T68m can be found here: Enjoy!!

  • That joystick looks like its gonna be very breakable, not the kind a thing for in your back pocket.... Why is it there anyway?To play games ? ( it just doesn't seem like a good idea to me)

  • Dude, this phone is the best looking phone out there, and it's not like a nokia, it's has all useful functions too. it's like.......Bruce Lee, and all other phones are the bad guys. It'll kick the SHIT outta all of em!!

  • T68 is a really sexy phone - glad to see that Ericsson can change! When can I buy one???

  • Simply the best phone we know. Stands tall (much much taller) among the other competitors. Nokia?? Forget it. It gonna be the no.1 in 2001/2002.

  • This is the last mobile phone Ercisson designed before the Ericsson-Sony affair. Wow, I'm proud of you Sweden, my home. Ericsson rules!!

  • bulok pa rin ang ericsson daling masira. da best pa rin ang nokia. I know that na may phone ang nokia na pang tapat sa phone nito. trying hard ang ericsson.

  • Well its a step closer to G3

  • No it does not use the same battary as the t29. Ericsson always made the best phones but now the finaly look the best too.

  • Sorry Nokia, you're doomed, Ericsson T68 vs. Nokia (any new phones) 40-0

  • The price will be around 5000:- sek (Sweden) which is about 490$ and 415� (quite expensive isn't it)

  • wow...wat a fone!!!! colours display,GPRS,EMS,MMS not in other fone.Great design,the best of ericsson to date...truely the future fone..

  • I think that it looks pretty cool i wouldn't mind knowing the price.

  • Can't wait for this phone to come out !!!!!! Can anyone tell me whether this phone use the same battery type as T28?????

  • I need to know more about it. Especially the price, because i intend to purchase it. Can you tell me more about this phone??

  • Can anyone tell me what should i choose between T68 and the new phone from ericsson and sony which due in first quarter of 2002.....damn hard choice !!!!!!! I should get both !!!!

  • Best phone ever.....by the way the phone is only 85g , not 88g as on info details !!!

  • Sorry i post the wrong website address...this is the correct one !!!

  • Simply the most beautiful and cool phone in the world......look more pretty in picture,......check it out in this website

  • Simply the best from ericsson !!!!! It seriously kick the nokia's ass........I will get this phone once it comes out !!!

  • İt's perfect.

  • cool colour display!

  • Iam a stylish individual and my partner Chris is very happy with this mobile as its the same colour as his underwear ----oh yeah!

  • If anybody knows how I can purchase this handset soon, please let me know!

  • Wondering when the Ericsson T68m is coming to Australia. Cheers

  • Looks good but unhappy about cover-up on the release date in the U.K.

  • Top dollar paid for this product. E-mail me with any info.

  • I have been a great fan of Ericsson phones until the T29 was released and now this T68 I think I will switch to Ericsson when this is released!!!!!

  • Ericsson stole the stile of this fone by NOKIA.This fone is like a Nokia mobile fone.It is no fair!Nokia and Panasonic for ever!!!!!!!!!!!

  • What a beatiful phone it�s just the best phone ʹve ever seen .. I want to know when is it going to be available in South America... GREAT PHONE...

  • nice phone , how can i buy one ?

  • when.....if

  • tra la la

  • its simply great

  • hello!! can you please tell me when is going to be avaible in the USA the erricson t68 or the the t20s. thanks

  • I tried it at CeBIT in Germany and it's the best mobile phone I have ever seen. It's even more beautiful in reality and fit's perfectly in the hand The joystick and buttons have the correct resistance when pressed and the menusystem is easy as 1.2.3. The T39 is a hit to. With a bigger display than T28 smaller antenna (to bad it wasn't built in the phone) and it's packed full with features bluetooth, GPRS... Nokia didn't show anything interresting on CeBIT just a bunch of ugly looking phones with nothing really new in them. I have a Nokia today, but I will throw it in a lake when the new phones from Ericsson comes :)

  • Well.....yes ericsson have done it big time now! A stylish, v.light, colour dislpay, "joy stick menu"Gprs, Ehm,MMS, and the latest version of microbrowsing wap software . its just a shame they cant bring out a fone which you can change the startup and display logos. i fink if ericsson stay on the lines that they are on now they maybe become as big a NOKIA. Nice one Ericsson.

  • i think its very sylish & i thinkit has some great features!im glad ericsson have brought a GOOD phone out well.........apart from the t39

  • i am looking forward to getting one only if they could come out sooner in australia

  • And also - I just noticed it. I guess this guy wrote the second comment from akmis.

  • ------------------------------ Wasn't me the one that wrote the previous comment. Some guy just loves my name.. :))I guess he is pissed of because he read my comparison between Ericsson T68 and Nokia 8310 ------------------------------ I myself think that at this moment T68 is the best phone on market.And most functional also...

  • I agree.

  • This is not a phone. It's a TV remote control. Choose Nokia.

  • Ericsson has done it again. This phone is small, with big COLOUR display, all the latest software. And people - look at the battery stats. They are out of this world....!

  • i want to buy it,when it cames out in germany

  • On the other hands aaa, I still like Nokia. If possible the old chunky one. People can see I have handphone.

  • what a beauty

  • Orangeeboom, clon dyke windmill

  • i really think this is a nice little phone, but i would like to get more info on it !!! Price, menu functions, memory functions ... wheres all that !!! if anyone has some info for me please email me with it if you dont mind .. THANX

  • Walaweh!!! Got color oledi ah... GPRS and Bluetooth somemore... WAP 1.2.1!! Latest Version ah! Maybe now those nokia freaks will wake up!

  • Ericsson T68 display size is 8

  • For the first time ever, I think this Ericsson is worth considering. Never liked their phones because of poor ergonomics and small screen which probably explain why they've lost so much market share. This phone probably still has their stupid menu system but the feature set and screen size is attractive. Colour is probably not critical. Maybe a cheaper monochrome model will be released later.
