No, it has a fixed focus 2 megapixel camera just like the W850.

Decent photos, but without flash, which is a bummer. Because of the lack of auto focus details, like fur on a cat, appear messy and smudged though. Nice big landscape photos are pretty good though. Look here for the main thread with phtos by the K610: http://www.esato.com/board/viewtopic.php?topic=128033

Since W850 is purely for music listeners, a 2MP camera should be considered as a bonus. Plus, you get a 1GB card right out of the box.

No, I'd say that the W850 is just like any other all rounder  phone, and an 'upgrade' (if you don't think about the camera) to the W810. The W950 on the other hand is meant for pure music listeners.

so what should you suggest...to take w810 because of better camera and worse walkman player...or w850-worse camera...but better walkman player (is it so much better then the one in w810?...) and ok it supports BT stereo and I dont need 3G...because today I had k800 in my hands and it gives a bit to "plastic" feeling to me....

Well it ultimately depends on what suits you. Do you want to use the W850 as your dedicated music player? Apart from the camera (at it's not too horrible) the rest of the phone is superior. Better screen, inteface, 3G, player (with album art, track ID, extra options for sorting and nicer look), form factor, larger included memory card etc.
The only disadvantage is the camera and the price, because no doubt, the W850 will cost more. There's a review on mobile-review of the W850 with pictures and photos made by the camera.

Yeah, I'd say the W850 would be somewhere around the K800's price at the moment, if not a tiny bit more.

If the W850 is the same price, and if its even more, then there must be a reason for it? What is that? Having a far inferior camera, and still the same price? |

I would not be surprised to see the W850i cost a bit more than the K800i as it has better headphones, a memory stick (K800i doesnt) and Walkman functionality (SE charge more just for a slightly different peice of software.

It'll be expensive because most consumers would rather the better looking phone with the camera that's only 1 megaxel less than the K800. It'll come with a memory card and quite a few extras that the K800 didn't have. Most don't realise what auto-focus is.
The W850 will also be newer than the K800 when it comes out, so that'll play a factor as well.

@N3o
The W850 has a couple of good features that the K800 will never have and thats TrackID and also the new 2.0 player, the first handset to have it.
I'd say the K800i is as good at imaging as the is at music so really its down to whats more important to you.
Personally, I would be tempted by the W850i.
