  • Hi I want to ask about langue settings I can't understand other langue ..I want to find English langue ..by mistak I chose other langue so now I coud not find English

  • Help! I can hear but can't be heard is there some kind of secret function.. I'm going nuts. I can't believe I was stupid enought o buy it for 170 Euros from a friend..

  • Hi, Could anyone let me know where to dowmload English manual for N923, Many thanks.

  • anyone email me if they know where to get this! I live in Canada, and cannot obtain quality like NEC. Ebay has proven unsuccessful! thsi phone is Hot~ any of that samsung, lg, audiovox stuff is all crappo!

  • just an update to the previous post, I have had the phone running for 83 hours with 37 miniutes of calls on one full charge so the fears over the battery are nothing to worry about. It still has one bar left but i am going to give it another full charge tonight. As far as i can tell, for a light user who is not concerned about all the rubbish packed into todays phones, then this is ideal.

  • Just got one of these and it is a cracking little phone. Good sound both hearing and speaking, battery is good for a long long day on standby and a normal days talking. Dont care about the camera but as a simple and easy to use phone this has to be the best of the bunch for performance, build qualtity and size.

  • to henry if you want free nec phones try ebay your scam might work there and get you off a great web site like this instead of wasting decent peoples time.

  • i will like to have one

  • If you buy it in the rest of China, it will cost you less... about 100�

  • This phone looks like a mini TV.Hehe, if it had bluetooth it would have been a nack but seems it doesn't just another worse one.

  • if dis phone doenst have bluetooth n memory slot then how can i send/recieve stuff n have song

  • Just got this phone. Its Great bought it in hong kong for �100. So dont get ripped off if buying!!!!!!!

  • Has anybody got any idea where I can download or purchase the English manual for this phone as mine is in Chinese. What keys are used to lock the phones keypad buttons as sometimes when it is in my pocket it activates the camera etc... Also does anybody know where I can buy an in car charger for it.

  • please i want know how i can put in or out the battery for this nec, because i don't know open it. I want know how do to download a music or a wallpaper. thank

  • Who can help me? I would like to have an English Usar's manual for the N923.

  • I forgot one question. How du i reduce / increase speaker volume while talking to somebody. I can't find it in the english manual i have. I can (later when i get home) put the english version of the manual on my homepage. Please send me a mail if you want the manual. John, Rio de Janeiro

  • Got my N923 in Hong kong also. I'am quite exitet about it. Though battery runs out quick if there is no signal. To set english menu. Press Menu (left softkey) - 5 - 3 -2 Then you get the option for english. I don't know where to get the english manula, but the shop i bought my phone from downloaded it for me. John, Rio de Janeiro

  • Can any one tell me how to set the main menu to English please or better still have Instructions that I can download ?

  • beautiful looking phone i bought it in hong kong nearly 500usd but i need the manual in english and i would lke to know whether it supports 3 volts or 6 volts sim card. is this phone handsfree also

  • I get two hours talk and 24 hours standby with heavy usage. Make sure you set the balckight to turn off ASAP IF you are getting two hours standby your battery is possibly in need of a few charge cycles it is not user replacable. It is much better than the n900 and has built in speaker and microphone all the N900 acessories (data suite etc ) work perfectly with the N923 and the N930

  • Those who got this phone, how long does the battery last? Is the battery better then N900?

  • HELP ME PLEASE, where do i get a battery for my N923? because it only lasts 2 hours(standby)

  • At 9.5mm, its one thin brick

  • this phone is an apsolute brick why do u want this pile of crap!

  • I want the NEC N 923 to have a triband. If anyone knows how to operate one of the nec's in the USA please contact me

  • i want to buy this phone please tell me where to buy it in the web or if some one is interested in selling please mail me: [email protected]. thank you

  • were can i get a charger for this phone are they avalable in regular phone shops

  • i wnat a that mobile

  • Hi, I need the instruction for configuration the MMS for the german Network O2 and t-mobil for this NEC N923 phone. Who can help me?

  • phone uses GSM 900/GSM 1800 only. just ask your cellphone company! also when you buy make sure it has english language on the menus (unless you read chinese).

  • Came close to paying 353 UK Pounds. Didn't - was not sure if work in UK. Does it? Will be upset did not buy - but couldn't afford to take chance - sleek, have V3.

  • I bought this as an addition to my collection as i already own a siemens sx1, communicator 9210i and a motorola v3. It is without a shadow of a doubt the biggest move in mobile phone design in the last 5 years. It is so diminutive that you are scared to hold it tight!! It has a wealth of features when you consider that it is the exact footprint of a credit card. It is in my opinion a marvel of design that it was ever born and a great insight into what we can be expecting to see in the future. It is also the one thing I own that is bound to create a conversation as soon as someone spots it.....it is a real piece of eye candy!!

  • LOL.. it's probably not a great phone, but it's a proof of concept. eventually there will be many phones this size that perform better.

  • It's a load of rubbish. Don't buy it and if someone tries to palm one off on you saying it's cool run a mile.

  • nope. it won't work in the US. Cingular is 850, t-mobile is 1900. this phone uses GSM 900/1800 which is neither. NEC should make this for north america! i would buy one! seriously!

  • and you might have good luck using t-mobile with this phone. i use a chinese sony T630 and it works on t-mo.

  • you can buy car chargers that have a regular outlet. then plug your phone charger into the outlet. u have to use 2 cords but it works!

  • sorry - i mean the car charger for the N940 - now that looks like a good phone - TV built in!!! I still need a car charger??? help anyone. come in 0B1 your my only hope!!!

  • Great phone - everyone loves it - you can pull with his phone - bought it in Hong Kong for 4600 HKD from regular shop. speaker and mic built in good quality - maybe a little on the quiet side. camera good enough - shame only for chinese but easy to work out controls. battery quite short only two hours talk time - WHERE CAN I BUY A CAR CHARGER FOR THIS PHONE????? I NEED ONE DESPERATELY!!! WHY CAN'T I USE IT IN THE USA should be tri band - bummer - IT FITS IN MY WALLET and it's only a card holder!!!! GIVE ME A CAR CHARGER SOMEONE!!!! Does the card charger for the N400 fit this phone????

  • Please help me! I need to get an instruction for this phone in English. thanx in advance!

  • I have it & I love it.

  • how do u get this thing for travel? and 2.7mb is a joke for camera

  • Does it still require a headset like N900? Great design. Would like to have one if the speaker and microphone is built-in.

  • Love it.....thinner & smaller & better looking than my V3.

  • Funny looking phone. NEC has done other thing better.

  • I love Nec but this... shame on them. give us N840!!!! I mean it costs to much here in Russia.... (800 $)

  • this must be a joke this thing is 2 dam ugly!!!!!

  • Only avaiable in China for now.....I want one desperately! It's so thin & light. What a beautiful design! Eat your heart out.....Moto V3!

  • Excellent phone!

  • that's one ugly fone... :-/

  • nec still make the thinnest phone in the world, period.
