If u cant wait take the W810, similiar to your K750 but without joystick so no problems there. If u can wait I'd hold out for the W850 due out soon, just the price of it may be restictive to your budget on its release |

Thanks for the clarifications guys. I'v browsed the net serching for reviews on both the phones I mentioned. K610 has, as some of you have mentioned, a smaller size and lacks a few features compared to my beloved K750. I also saw some photos taken by a K610 compared with the K750, and most of has higher contrast and noisy. I guess I will go for the W810 if budget permits. If not guess I'll have to settle again for the K750 for the mean time. Thanks guys. Great help. |

@thegreatone k610 is a very simple fone, nice design, but not that much advanced. w810 has the advantage, that it support still the mem stick, its still cheaper then m2. u should give a try for both imo before u make any decision

Well in the UK M2 memory is cheaper then Duo cards. You can buy 512MB Sandisk Duo for £18 with 40% of it's price. A Sony made 512MB M2 stick is the same £18 but at full price. So when Sandisk start to make M2 memory sticks they will be cheaper again.
But like I said that's in the UK and may not apply in your country.
Personally I prefer the K610 as it looks damn sexy, much nicer then the W810 and it's of a newer design and has 3G.
I would say why not just visit a shop and have a look at both phones if you can, it will make it easier for you then.
I was going to get a K800I, but I also like the M600I and the P990I all of which are going to offered for free on Orange tarrifs. But the only phone out at the moment is the K800I so I'm going to wait till there all out before I make my mind up as there is no replacement for seeing the phones in the flesh.
My perfect solution is the K610I and a P990I.

go for the w810i. k610i looks cheap and ugly or you may wait for the k618i model to come out. same specs as k610i but more good-looking and it's both 3G and musicphone (not walkman branded).
southern PH prices:
w810i costs around 15-16 thousand
k610i costs around 12-13 thousand
when I lost my k608i I bought a k750i but if k610i is around that time, i would have bought it instead.

you're right about the prices. I would surely love the K610. My only qualm about he phone is the lack of flash light(helps a good deal when taking night pics) and lack of autofocus. FM radio is not a big concern right now. I've seen some pictures taken by the K610 and it has streaks all over it.

Is there a way we can improve the quality of the pictures taken by the K610? |

adequate lighting would help in capturing decent pictures from a K610i. flash is indeed very useful not just as a torch but for taking pictures in the dark as well. fm radio is not that important.
i would recommend the K800i Cybershot if your budget permits. its flash is like that of digital cameras & not the torch (led) like in most phones. it also has a QVGA screen (320*240 resolution).
K800i costs around 20 - 21 thousand here in Southern PH.
it's pretty expensive though!
i wonder how much would it cost if it would be taken from a G-Plan? hmmm...
any ideas anyone? my subscription will end this coming August 31 and i'm planning to replace my K750i. |

No offerings just yet for the K800 on the g-plan. checked last sunday as I hae to get a new sim since I lost the one along with the K750. Gulo pa dn me as to whether to take the k610, w810(a little too much for my budget) or another k750i. K800 is way beyond my available budget right now,. |
