I would wait for the K790/K800.
Now that will be a upgrade from the W800i!

HI
Well nice to so many post for the w810i, l must agree that its is one of the best phones sony has made But why for the love of l don't know who do they let vodafone uk put there crap software on the dam thing its a great phone it dosen't need new software from vodafone.
I say not just as a moan but there are a few problem with this great phone one being when you put shortcut radio in the up key shortcut then use disc2fone software transfer music come fone start and no shortcut its gone, also the main right key shortcut can't be changed from vodafone live! Main menu a) looks crap again vodafone plus now you have a vodafone sim card option which is full of basic info on vodafone NOT need. in the games they have placed 7-8 game demos that are protected WHY! same thing in themes as well.
The phone only has 20mb internal memory why load it up with CRAP please VODAFONE listen to the customer stop putting crap software in good phone, as l'm returning this one to goto o2 which has the full sony software . |

I think the build quality of the phone feels very good. But the buttons to the side of the D-pad are a bit small. I keep hitting the Walkman and activity buttons by accident. |

I bought my W810i off ebay and kept it for about a week. It randomly dropped calls all the time so I sent it back to the seller and they refunded my money. It sure was a great phone, except for the dropped calls. I can't make up my mind whether I want to get another one once the problem is sorted out or whether to wait for the K790. I prefer the looks and size of the W810i, but the screen and camera on the K790 are hard to overlook. Does anyone have a picture of the W810 and K790 side by side for size comparison?
Well, I found some....

Im sure there will an update to the w810 which features a 3mp announced before the end of the year. Ill be dissapointed if SE carry ion the trend in Walkman phones like in the w950 without a camera.
Having the quality mp3 player and quality camera was genius move by SE. Lets hope they keep it up. There should be another announcment soon. Id imagine they will probabaly incorporate the cybershot into a walkman device. |
