Hi All,
I've been looking at new phones for a while to upgrade from my K700i. So far, I'm thinking of either getting a K800i or W810i as they seem to have everything I require. I have also been looking at the W850i which hopefully will be out soon.
What I'm looking for is basically some advice from anyone who's got a K800i/W810i just to tell me if they're worth it or not. Or should I just wait for the W850i?! I am desperate to get my new phone, but don't want to impulse buy.
Thanks in Advance =)

welcome to esato
K800 is a photography phone,it takes nice pictures and has 3g.
W810 is a walkman phone with a quite good camera and EDGE and also it is WALKMAN---great audio.

I've had the k800 for over a week now and found it to be the best phone I've ever had it fixes alot of the small problems that used to bug me the build is to a high standard the screen is one of the best I've seen the camera well what can i say used it at a works party the other night and the flash works amazingly well. My girlfriend has the w810 and it is a good phone as well SE are making some good phones right now but its a bit small and for me not so easy to handle but the 2 phones are built for different people do you care about music or a good camera best thing you can do is go have a play with them you'll know then. I'd pick k800 any day of the week.

do you care about music or a good camera best thing you can do is go have a play with them you'll know then.
That's always the problem with phones, seems to be one or the other. I'd prefer to have best of both worlds really if it was possible. Aslong as any of the previous mentioned phones have a good level of functionality, I would settle for a good balance balance between camera / music.
*Damn you SE! don't do this too me !!

The W810 is a great overall phone. Good looks, nice screen, decent camera,
, you name it. The K800 is even more feature packed, but that does come at the expense of design, battery life and size. The W850 is like the K800, but it has a far worse camera than both the W810 and K800. It does have slightly better player though and the same screen as the K800. Maybe go for either the W850 (music) or the K800 (for the camera). Camera or ; you decide.

Superb Camera Quality~ K800i
Superb Sound Quality~ W850i
Superb In Both Quality?
it has to be W810i
cause you only got 3 choices

The K800i has the same media player is the W810i except for megabass. I would go with the K800i and buy a bigger memory stick.

@chillivodka if you want a SE then hard choice,SE doesn't have phones that have all in one so probably it will be W810 or W900 if you want as much as possible.
if you really want everything in your phone you should choose Nokia N93,sorry SE to the death fans,but that is a fact n93 has it all
Posted by jcwhite_uk
The N93 does have it all but costs a lot too. It also isnt out yet either.

The W810i and K800i are pretty close in comparison in the specs, apart from the obvious - dimensions/screen size/memory etc.
So I'm having to narrow it down to best functionality seeing as they both have camera/mp3 aac support etc etc.
I'll check again in a bit after Ive re-read the specs etc, but the K800i seems to be just that little better (imo). And looking at the specs from the W850i, it doesn't seem that whole much more than the K800i really.
Does anyone know a proposed release date for the W850i?
Posted by shaliron
The W850 is expected in July.

K800 . . . though so far I've seen to Esatonians who had 'dead' K800's, fortunately they were under warranty and been replaced . . . Good Luck !
Posted by chillivodka
It may possibly be worth waiting for a week or two then if the w850i is out this month. Lets just hope it comes out "Bug" free!
Posted by shaliron
Well don't expect it to be 'bug free'. All new phones have bugs unfortunately...

Aye, unfortunately it's a plague we have to live with. Although I'll still deliberate over getting a K800i or w850i in the next week.

It always ends up with people having to compromise between the K800 or the W850. See what market segmentation does SE!
Posted by chillivodka
After much reading on various websites, looking at peoples likes/dislikes with the pre-mentioned phones. Ive gone for the K800i as its more a jack of all trades, rather than a master which suits my needs! Cheers for all your advice and help

I did look at the w900i, but just don't like swivel phones, even if the phone is brilliant I'm stuck in my ways and prefer a block!
Posted by ceehjayem
I dont have either but I like the W850. It looks nice!
Posted by thegreatone
don't forget w850 does not have A/F
Posted by xan K
I think you made a good choice. now if you want W810's sound quality (exept for the Megabass) you only have to get some w800 or w810 headphones as the walkman player is almost the same.

Hi! u know a w850 is a really nice phone, if u dnt mind having a few camera features filleted and it looks REALLY nice in white....
Posted by BobaFett
if u dont need umts system, go for w810. I do liked it, except the usually small bugs. Very comforteable keypad, great battery and browser
Posted by rehan657
hey which will be a better purchase?
K790 or W900?
Posted by shaliron
@rehan657
Well, if you want the K790, why not get the K800 which, I hear, is for the same price. The K800 is better than the W900 but the W900 is more unique. Apparently it is being discontinued soon, so it is going to be a 'rare one' soon.
Posted by Vercetti
Definitely the K800i.
Posted by chunkybeats
i have a w810i, cracking phone but id wait for the w850i to be honest, shouldnt be too long to arrive in the uk!!!!!
