NEC N900iG - User Reviews

  • no dod y you bought this phone

  • Dear Sir/Madam, I have Foma N900iG (DoCoMo) mobile phone. but I am not able to use in my local network (Mumbai, India) Kindly advice how can I unlock this phone and use the same in Mumbai, India. Appreciate to hear from you. Regards Shekhar K

  • l am using ur phone but i have batterie problem so i just want to contact u to know the type of the batterie that i can use it for the phone because i have go to store and asked but still i did not get it.from GHANA MY Mail address,[email protected]

  • As for the N900iG I found it really challenging to get a hypersim and my SIM card into the slot. But if you can achieve this, you will be able to use yoru N900iG on a GSM network.

  • I have docomo N900IG but i didnt know if this kind of Cellular phone are working here in philippines and I wan't to use our own networks... globe or smart..... if you have any ideas or comments pls send to my email address

  • I have docomo N900IG but i didnt know if this kind of Cellular phone are working here in philippines and using our own networks... globe or smart..... any ideas or comments pls send to my email address. [email protected]

  • can anyone tell me how to use SIM card in this phone instead of FOMA card? it's worthless having this phone in the philippines if i can't use it!

  • if u have any problem in downloading of video songs or pictures .then contact me at [email protected]

  • Generally FOMA handsets operate on a different spec from UMTS, and are not compatible on any network other than Docomo. But, foreign UMTS handsets can roam on docomo's network where they have compatible equipment. Moreover, I can use my Docomo Foma card and my Nokia 6630 (sim-free) and have no problems with reception or IMode access in my city. About the N900iG...I guess some factory unlocked models were shipped, but not so many. And it doesn't look like any more will ship. Too bad.

  • wowowowo, tell me it works under US sun!

  • I know for sure that it is impossible to use a non-japanese SIM card, because the card reader in the docomo is not for SIM cards but fore FOMA card, which are completely different.

  • this phone has no mp3/aac support so y need the minisd slot?????

  • Verry cool fone it has everything i used it 4 a month and get a K750i in exchange for it .

  • Where can I buy this phone in the U.S? Please advise on a website on where to buy, thanks...it would be greatly appreciated!!!

  • Can this handset play MP4 video?

  • Factory unlocked NEC N900iG phones are now shipping in the US. cheers

  • any body know how to sim unlock this phone? it's nice ut can i really use it outside japan? please email me thanks a lot!

  • This phone will only work with DoCoMo Japan, and in roaming mode outside Japan. You cannot make with phone work with any other carrier other than FOMA. DO NOT buy it if you are not going to live in Japan.

  • it's a good product

  • Uhhh...well, actually at least three US phone sellers are taking pre-orders for this very model: unlocked, of course. Of course it might be hobbled like the V802SE handset without the Z800 firmware upgrade, but you should still be able to use it as a phone. That, we'll have to see, but I'm guessing (hoping, actually) it will be useable to a lot of us, maybe even in Japanese.

  • This unit is specific to the Japanese market only. Don't even think of purchasing it unless you are going to stay in Japan and use it there becuase you won't be able to unlock it (period).

  • Any information on the world wide release of this handset? A number of companies are preordering it... With regards to the barcode reader: Yeah, I think you can use it to check the price of a tin of Dinty Moore, but it can read 3D barcodes that can encode a map, directions, or a business contact. They are starting to appear on a lot of business cards and advertisemetns in Japan so that people can just take a snapshot and then walk away with the info already loaded into their handset.

  • If someone knows how to desimlock this handset (coming from Japan), that would be great ! (email me tx)

  • Hey, Zi I'd like to know something more about this bar-code and about 3G network, could you write me to my e-mail [email protected] please it will be great to meet with Japan boy, because I like your country very much.

  • bar-code phone i mean....

  • i found a n900ig i was wondering how much is worth

  • well in japan bar-code is alreally in use and it is super handly. you can book flight, hotel, and so many super more .....:D

  • TO Mik, Perhaps you can use the the phone checking the barcode to know the price when sometimes you cant find the tag barcode of vegatable in a supermarket hehe just playing joke so dont mind me ;)

  • crap these nec phones , well the good 1ns like this 1 neva come out in the uk

  • Finally, a credible release from NEC. Still, this phone comes a little too late. Many phones out there have similar features.

  • i m having a NEC N900ig but it is noit working in india,can u please let me know which service i can use for this mobile phone.

  • barcode reader? what for? to check prices?

  • Well to my own experience about NEC phones it a well designed phone and well okay,i believe not because NEC was my first phone am saying this but it beacuase it a nice phone to be used and ascepted World Wide.that all i think for now but i will surely get in touch later if i have something ealse to say.Samuel from Nigeria.

  • Wow..beautiful..I just can''t wait the phone to sells in Malaysia..Hopefully is not expensive

  • umts / gsm !!!

  • nice looking phone!
