That is the question. I currently have a K700i (which we all know about the problems it has) and I've had that on contract with o2 since september. Which means I'll be eligable for upgrade a few months after both phones are sceduled for release.

Thing is, which one should I go for? The k750i seems to be getting more hype, by SE and other websites, yet the W800i seems a much better phone.

The 750i focuses more on the 2mp camera, yet the 800i has that and has a more emphazied mp3 player.

At first I was tempted to go for the K750i but being a music fan the W800i seems a much more suited phone for me.

Personally I just cant wait to get rid of my K700

They are pretty much the same phone, the W800 comes with a bigger Memory Stick Duo card and can play music with the phone off (to save battery). It has a quick button to the music player app. (used for something else in the K750).

Aside from that it's mostly packaging.

Also, the W800 will be a longer wait. It's not due out for a few months yet, whereas the K750 is imminent.

W800i all the way

I think it looks better esp in orange, it has all the important features of the K750i plus more memory, CD ripping software and you can use the MMC-60 Multi-media cable to connect it to your car stereo, home audio even a TV for watch DVD's if you go to the trouble of putting those on your memory stick.

Do you want a Camera/phone/walkman/multimedia device or a Camera/phone.

You could always keep the K7 and buy a Digital camera too.

I think that the k750 can actually be the better phone if you dont care about flight mode.

The k750 can do everything the w800 can do except for flight mode.

It is due much earlier and to add a 512mb sandisk and higher end headphones it would still cost less than the w800. Plus the k750 has video edit whereas the w800 doesnt.

I mainly think its down to looks and how patient you are... i prefere the more smart look so im going with the k750 although i think the w800 is nice and funky. I juuust cant be as'd to wait that long!
