Samsung X700 mobile with other mobiles of same class or NEAR to it's
class.
Comparison With Nokia 6233
mobile :
It
is not fair to compare X700 with Nokia
6233 since both are in different price / quality. The better comparison
of Nokia 6233 will be with Samsung D600 since both have 2MP cameras,
2GB memory card support, full screen video playback, 240 x 320 pixels
resolution. There is better video recording in 6233 along with FM radio
but D600 has TV output for all kind of files and document viewer to
view office / pdf files and much better security features than Nokia
6233 with slightly higher price (6233 @ 12,000 pak rupees / D600 @
14,100
pak rupees / X700 @ 9,200 pak rupees) till September 16 , 2007.
I
just compared X700 with 6233 on a request
of some other mobile users. So, this is my comparison.

Having 64 channels polyphonic ringtones with mp3 support. It has no
copy feature for files, only move file to other folders. FM stereo
radio with 20 channels ( visual radio is broadcast dependent) works on
background also. It can record calls to available free memory and
caller/receiver can listen the beep every 5 seconds which is bad. It
cannot record FM radio programs. You cannot adjust display settings for
brightness / backlight time out. You cannot rewind/ forward the video
files since it is only available for audio files (looks not good at
all). It supports themes and you can download new themes from net. It's
firmware v 3.7 has some serious bugs . Upgrade to v 4.7 for better
usage. X700: It has

which is good . You can rewind/ forward both the audio and video files
easily! You can adjust display settings for brightness/ backlight time
out... even you can turn dim backlight “OFF”. It
supports skins but you can't download new skins.
So, both phones have some advantages / disadvantages .... and Nokia
6233 is good for multimedia ( except not support for rewind / forward
the video file) and for security features, Samsung X700 is
impressive.... So, it's all depends on users which features they will
be preferred!
