    Serene II (serenata) spy pics, detail info anything?

    Why are there so small information about the upcoming product, in spite of the fact that some authorities already managed to hold it and report it as user unfriendly, it is also expected to come up pretty soon.

    I will be very interested to see some pics of the new Serene too...having almost bought a Serene recently but decided not to for several reasons...and my dealer said that there would be no replacement for a very long time???

    2joff135 - there really not going to be any replacement as Serenata is considered to be a completely different product and you should definitely go for original Serene as it is the best phone on the market, I used it for almost a year than sold it because now the wcdma support for me became critical... I think sereneta will be released before the and of 2007, if no major changes made to the product. I believe there is some one in this community who has some pics...

    Dear All:

    Has anyone seen the latest video on the Apple web site?  It is a 20 minute movie about the other features of the iPhone.  Wow!!!

    It has the WoW!  factor of B&O of old and some of the new, BL 5.

    Just some mind droppings,

    I've seen it. Don’t think much of the iphone, yet I like it from the site that it moves the boundaries far ahead, and we will have more innovative phones soon. More mobility more integrated technology.

    The iPhone is very cool! Not for me to be honest, It's a gimicky toy, and it will do well, I'm one of those stubborn types who believes a phone is a phone, and in reality after all these wizz bang features, you forget about them and still only use it for calls and sms (with the occasional photo... if you remember that you have a camera in your phone).

    Serene i love you for being so down to earth!!

    Dear All:

    I agree with some of the points made regarding the iPhone.  The form factor is not great but the thought behind the interface is revolutionary.  It has taken disjointed technologies and brought them together into a clean package.  Not unlike what B&O was doing with its link system for the home.  However, the Serene isa  good thought with questionable execution. 

    The clam design is not bag but the quality of the materials is poor.  The phone gets 'dirty' easily.  Finger prints are easily seen.  Keeping it clean means constantly rubbing the prints off with a microfiber cloth.  The click wheel is good but very little feed back, again poor execution.

    I too am interested in seeing the design of the new B&O cell phone. From the sketch / drawing image that I think Lee posted a few weeks ago, it seems to me that it's going to look quite original! We already know it will be made in a similar way to the Serene, in the sense that Samsung will do all the techy stuff and B&O have just designed it. However, I think this time the cell phone will have a lot more to offer, and more importantly a much easier functionality - the positioning of the camera on the Serene was just plain stupid. I think it would have been better if they hadn't included the camera, not only because it was rubbish compared to the current spec of cell phone cameras, but also because so many people slated it for its absurd postioning!

    According to my source:

    - sliding mechanism

    - click wheel

    - mp3 player

    - 4 Mb of memory

    - ICE-power amplifiers and speakers!

    - no camera

    - price around 1500 €

    So they're just redesigning BeoLab 4s are they? Stick out tongue

    Seriously, I am not impressed by the Serene. If you are willing to fork out £800ish on a phone which is less reliable than my D600, and just has motorized opening and is made out of a slightly nicer material, then that's fair enough, but the price difference between the two is not £750.

    Maybe the 'Serenata' will offer more I'm interested in, but so far the iPhone looks like the phone I've been looking for for ages, decent Voice Mail options, decent MP3 player, decent photo storage and the web browsing/videos just come as an 'extra' for me.

    Re: Serene II (serenata) spy pics, detail info anything?

    I agree, I have Serene and I don't think it's worth what I payed for it. Easy to use, sort of (texting is strange). Nice design, yes. Not slim enough to sit in your hip pocket and finger prints easy. Would like to try an iphone but wont be out in Australia till mid 2008.

    iPhone is way too big to be an every day in-yer-trouser-pocket phone. Its an iPod that makes calls rather than a phone that plays (lots of) mp3's and as such is heading in the wrong design direction (for me).

    I'd really like to see B&O get the Serenata right (although I'm not particularly hopeful)

    Generally speaking, you aren't learning much if your lips are moving.

    That's exactly what I think. I'm quite fussy about the size of my phone (particularly the width) and the new iPhone is around the same size as the video iPod, which is too wide for a mobile phone.

    I think this guys has a very good review of the iPhone.  I'm glad he hasn't reviewed any Bang & Olufsen stuff yet

    Check http://www.serenatamobile.com/

    They put a countdown on it, you can also see the countdown on B&O's main website. It's 19 days to go.

    You can see some x-ray like pictures of serenata there.
