The K800 is definitely a great phone to have.

According to mobile-review, the W950, as it is a smartphone, will have an improved player:

Quote:

Difference from W950i is lesser interface flexibility, there’s no genre search, neither there are automatic playlists or rating of metadata of files (sorting files according to your mood). This difference is explained by one simple truth – W950i is a smartphone.



Basically the W950 has a genre search, automatic playlists and ratings.

Also, I'd go for the W950 if you don't need a camera. The K800 if you take tons of shots. The W850 for an alright camera (not as good as K800) and decent music (not as good as the W950). Simple as that!

K800i - if you're a photo geek
W850i - if you're a music geek
W950i - if you're a surfing / music geek
how's that?
