i like the 6500 slide, but very disappointed with it's platform

S40 5th edition was not comparable to the JP-8 JP-8 obviously is ahead. and S40 5th edition for me sucks bad when i comes to java accesibility i prefer JP-8.

funny in what way?

in the way that you really cant get an all rounder phone
closest phone i think to that now is the w890 i dont know just guessing its seems kinda all rounder
same with the 6500 slide
but then again its heavier - it is a nice phone but i like the looks better of the w910 - but has a better cam then w910(pretty good actually)
so i just find it funny
also the 6500 classic competes with the w880 imo hmm i prefer the w880 JUST!
so i kinda laughed when i was comparing the w910 and 6500 slide..one phone has this the other doesnt have that..so it really is your choice

well i think the nokia 6500 slide is not that far off, it has a decent camera, ok its not the top of whats out there but only a month ago 3.2mp was the standard. Great design and build quality - i actually like the fact that it is a reasonable width and has a good weight to it - i dont like lite, thin phones that feel flimsy. It also records at the same video res as n95 (according to the 'stuff' magazine podcast. S40 platform so you can add stuff to it but not the slow opperation of S60. Nice size screen for the handset 2.2" tft 16 million colours

The only thing really is you have to get a headphone adapter to take it from 2.5 to 3.5mm jack but thats no more than say 5

I have the same choice, and it's a hard one. Love my K800i, but would really like a larger screen for browsing the web. And I shouldn't really care about the camera, as long as it takes reasonable snapshots. Even if it's 10 MP, it could never compete with my 'real' camera which I carry around a lot. Mmmm typing this did clear up my mind a bit. Technically the K850 seems the better phone just for camera reasons but why the hell is it still so thick. Looks and feel of the W910 are really tempting and if the screen is really larger I think I'll go for the W.

I also had this dilemma between the k850i and w910.
The build quality of w910 is better IMO and it's sleek and thin.

k850i on the other hand have a good cam and walkman 3.0.

I chose the k850i in the end because it have both cam and music.
But I'm not really happy with the build quality though.

I'd much rather take a K850 over W910 anyday, i realy don't see the point of W910 since K850 has Walkman3.0 . I hate thin phones, gave my Silver W880 to my Mum and got a Nokia N80 love the size and feel. I also had a W900 which was also a good size.

Go for the w910, the only place the k850 wins is the cam, and who needs 5mp in a phone any way!? Overall the w910 is a better phone, imo the k850 looks like a phone created by a Martian !

Ye if you wanna look like a kid get a W910!
The only place W910 wins is in the size of the screen otherwise K850 is better, has better video recording, better camera,it looks better, more classy, as a matric student now, i'd hate to pull out a W910 at school,i would be so embarresed it looks like the perfect phone for my 12yearold brother.

I had the same problem with choosing between the W910 and K850.
The w910 has a very nice screen, a great music player/media center, and nice buttons. Its very stylish and thin, and the shake thing is fun to play with. However, the camera is a bit below-average with no autofocus and a rather limited zoom. But I think it excels in most other areas.
The k850 has a technically similar screen, but having to touch the screen all the time gets it dirty. The user interface is excellent for taking photos, but the touch sensitive buttons can be, um, insensitive sometimes and won't respond. Using the media player is okay but I can't imagine playing games on it. The camera itself is awesome, but in general I'd rather be navigating it with a more normal directional keypad.
I guess you can get the direction I'm coming from;get the W910.

What will you recommend for me - K850 or W910???
I like W910's design. It has bigger screen. Better walkman player ( + walkman button ) and louder speaker. For me the camera doesn't matter ( I've got Finepix S5700 so I don't need good camera in the phone ). Answer me.
The best mobile phone brand died with Sony Ericsson's death. Shame on you Sony for killing it! And, of course, for ruining the Xperia brand...
