Guest Mewcenary Posted August 8, 2006 Report Share Posted August 8, 2006 Hi, Not a troll - genuine question. I'm thinking of upgrading to the Universal right now, but the buzz seems to be around the Hermes. What advantages does it bring? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest hennapod Posted August 8, 2006 Report Share Posted August 8, 2006 Size is surely the number one advantage. There is no way you can put a Universal comfortably in your jeans pocket but the Hermes is fine. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Confucious Posted August 8, 2006 Report Share Posted August 8, 2006 And HSDPA, drawbacks are smaller lower res screen and usb headphone sockedt and smaller memory card format. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest kvl Posted August 8, 2006 Report Share Posted August 8, 2006 Well I have been tempted by the Universal for some time, but for me it was the size, I've got a M2000 and that was the biggest I decided to go. As per my previous thread I've got my hands on a TyTN, and I would say the plus are:SizeJog DialCamera with flashMinuses are:StylusA bit plastic fantasic, maybe the Vodafone's build, Orange's build looks betterMicro SD, your previous Memory card collection is now defunctI hope this is helpful...

Guest Ingvarr Posted August 9, 2006 Report Share Posted August 9, 2006 (edited) Universal is hardly can be considered "phone" or "pocket" device :) Its more of "classic PDA" or even ultra-ultra-subnotebook ;) Also, Hermes battery life is tad better then Universal's (though lot worse then Wizards's).

Guest simonclark123 Posted August 10, 2006 Report Share Posted August 10, 2006 AFAIK TyTN has A2DP (Stereo Bluetooth) , unlike Universal. Regards Simon Clark Business Telecoms Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest chucky.egg Posted August 10, 2006 Report Share Posted August 10, 2006 Universal battery life really is poor, you HAVE to charge at least once a day if you're actually intending to use it. That's fine most of the time, but forget your charger on a dirty weekend away and you'll run out of power before you've finished your "home movies"... allegedly :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Ingvarr Posted August 10, 2006 Report Share Posted August 10, 2006 (edited) but forget your charger on a dirty weekend away and you'll run out of power before you've finished your "home movies"... allegedly With Hermes/TyTN it will be the same, maybe just a little better, but you still need to charge it each day, and better not forget your charger if you plan to actually use the device.
