Exactly 9 months ago i purchased a Z800i for a very expensive price. At the time i was pretty impressed with its features...I was very deceived when i found out that the camera, which was 1.3megapixels was so bad. A good bonus with the phone was that i was able to use a 1GB memory card to give it alot of space. Later on my phone started falling apart... the battery life started dying drastically and the camera got worse in quality, which was very odd indeed. Before the end, just 4 days ago i ordered the K800i and received it yesterday. This is an amazing product... the screen compared to the Z800i is just magnificent and so clear, vivid with all the colors.
So if you have the same opinions please post here:D

I've seen the Z800 once, in my country those cell phones are quite rare. It looked quite big froma a distance; I didn't look at the screen closely but from a bit far away it looked good and big too . Now I want a K800 but I'm still saving! . Cheers on the upgrade

I agree 100%, the screen is just amazing. I compared my K800i screen with my brothers w800i, and the screen on the w800i was really bad, the colours on the w800i looked really washed out and old.

I have no experience of the K800, but I've read many positive comments about it here on Esato.

I think my V800 is just fantastic. I think the design is stylish and sophisticated in much the same way as the BMW 5/6 series cars are.

It's software and BT are stable and it doesn't lock up like my K700 (pre firmware upgrade) did. I find the camera/video camera/screen all very good for their Spec and their age.

Had my z800i 10 months now and no problems with the batt. life, screen quality is good as to camera function i dont use it that often so no real comment. And for as heavy as i use it during the day browsing the web, gaming, playing mp3s and video calling it works just as good as when i got it. As to k800i no surprise it was designed with the camera functions more in mind so yes picture quality on k800i will be better. But z800i is a very good phone in its own ways.
