Which is better... K750i or W800i? I have the K750i but the W800i has the cool features... but has an ugly body (orange color?)..... I like black better! I don't want to get you mad or anything..... I just want to see which it is better, and what people would go for.-
~Post Pictures, Videos, Post~ anything..... What I want to see is the pictures and how K750i and W800i are realated.....

W800 is far from ugly. I have both phones and I must say that the W800 feels a lot better to use over the K750. Keypad, joystick is a lot more responsive as well.

Go for the W800
Posted by *Jojo*
I am NOT that certain if the difference between the 2 is ONLY it's - external memory card
64 MB for the K750i and 512 MB for the W800 . . . since I am a very practical guy, I took the 
K750i 
!

The Black design is perfect!

k750 is the best
w800 is too ugly ... get the w800 firmware for the k750i and u have the best of both worlds
trust me the k750 looks sooo nice over the w800.
i had two of these phones in my hand and the w800 is not what it seems..
i have the k750 2 months b4 i had the w800 and i was thinking WOW the w800 is nice etc etc but when u get it .. its not that good.

As the deal I got on my upgrade would have been the same for the K750i and the W800i I went for the W800i. I have used a fiends K750i and actually prefer the look of the W800i and the headphones and memory stick are a great advantage over the K750i.

I think my W800i is far better looking than my K750i. At least the W800 is a bit different. Whenever I take my K750i out, theres always some idiot with a T630 who says, "Oh look we have the same phone" and it really pisses me off!!
Posted by RyaN
id say stick with your K750 and go and buy a 1GB ProDuo if u wanna listen to music on your phone
Posted by Rav250
To me the W800 looks the best. And there are too many people who have the 750i out there
Posted by batesie
this ones about personal choice.
Posted by semo
Design is personal.
And I like the W800i more.
I also like orange colour, my favourite.
I'm tired of black and silver.
Moreover in K750 i dislike the front lines, the keypad with the strange not fitting to anything else there two smaller size square buttons.
The other thing is the joystick, the one on the W800i has some transparent orange rubber-like filling and feels nicer on your fingers.
The quickshare sticker is not my favourite too.
For the specs I would choose W800 over K750 again.
Paying 252 instead of 212 euro, you get:
512Mb over 64Mb memory stick
better software for music
better earphones with an adapter for normal earphones.
What I miss in both phones is the remote volume and next/previous track buttons on the earphone cable.
But I hope an accessory like that will come soon.

^^^^^
he's right, it's about personal choice
i bought W800i, because it matches my burned orange color car, well, kind of
and also for the fact that, when i was shopping for K750, most of the stores purposefully don't carry it, because they're trying to sell the new W800i.
they do that in Taiwan....

This is a classic example of personal taste/choice and how everything is subjective. That is, in fact, one of my favorite features about the design... those two little square keys.
And -on a personal note- I don't really like having a telephone that everyone else has, and the W800 has gotten REALLY popular.
I got my K750 thru the internet and our local GSM operator won't be carrying it, (thanks God!
) whereas there's a HUGE campaign launching the W800. And I have already seen several people with one.
Posted by SloopJohnB
i agree. it really comes down to taste. w800 may come with a 512 mb card but you can get one for cheap today and the headphones may be better but i think w800´s design draws to much attention, and the ´white´part of the phone gets yellowish with time as i have already seen in one. Personally, i believe w800 looks feminine and everybody will give it a second look and ask about it when you pull it out, kinda not what i´m looking for.
if u still really prefer w800´s software u can just flash your k750i
i think that se´s old users and fans usually stick with k750i, while new users, attracted to w800´s firy color and outdoors everywhere are really the ones that go for w800
Posted by SloopJohnB
Another thing i like about k750i is the combination of black keys and blue highlight. i know that the black t630 already had that, but its still cool.
Posted by F430
I'll say go for w800 they are about the same price but you get more memory and very good handsfree with w800i.
Posted by c96sthl
I used to support the fact of personal preference until I saw the pricing for both phone in Malaysia
K750 at sonystyle is RM1899 ( ~USD500)
W800 at sonystyle is RM1999 (~USD526)
I don't think 512MB MSD-pro only cost USD26 more than 64MB MSD
Posted by SloopJohnB
Here in brazil
in se´s website
w800 is 850usd
k750 is 695 usd
155usd of difference
Posted by BUFFBOY

the k750 and w800i
the w800i does look like a ladys phone but i like it... my g/f wants it... lol

Here in Manila:
Semicon Shop
K750i - Php 26K +
W800i - Php 30K +
@buff - Better give your
W800i to your girl mate, if that will make her happy 
. . . . of course, that will make you SAD though 
as you will lose one of your new toys.
Posted by BONDIE_86
hehe... whats all this? the w800i is better but the keys on the k750i are better... the feel to them and all that. the w800i looks better and i dont think it looks like a ladys phone... it isnt pink and purple now is it?
you can fastforward and rewind songs on the w800i
overall... i give both of them 10/10 for looks, quality and software

I find the attitude here a bit weird. I buy the best phone for my needs. If that happens to be the same as everyone else's choice, then so be it. I'm not going to choose a less suitable phone just to be different.
To be fair, I like to have a different phone, but that's usually because I want something different - or did more research and actually got a better phone than most people. So having a different phone reminds how clever I am
Having a different phone just to be different - and thus means missing out on features I want - would just remind me how stupid I am.

k750@w800 xD
Posted by bbaev
Is this thread meant to compare phones' prices? OR their quality?
I agree with most of you - it's a matter of preference. Personally, i bought k750i blasted silver - this not only gives me a great phone, but also different looks compared to all of you who bought the black one
Cheers! If I had to choose, I'd choose both!

@edridge - Maybe you are talkin' about prices in Greenhills type stores mate. We all know that prices of fones in Semicon are 4-5K higher than the ones seen in 'tiangge' type shops.
Posted by GSMarco
w800 has a nice keypad but the k750 owns it, cant go wrong with black. Slide in a memory card into your k750 and you voila! You have a w800
Posted by santfekuss
I have both, I think the w800i has a slightly better build quality.
Posted by Bobby77
@ BONDIE_86
You can fastforward and rewind with the K750 as well
Posted by BONDIE_86
lol... ohh yeah, so you can matey
i have both, id still say the w800i is better
you need your headphones to use the button on the left side as a start/stop on the k750i dont you? you dont with the w800i

Good luck
Posted by BONDIE_86

the white and orange would ve my personal choice over the black and siver
i agree that the w800i is a way of life
i think it looks better and feels better... i have also noticed that the w800i feels a bit lighter in weight
the key pad is also very good like that of the k750i
like i said earlier... i give them both 10/10
w800i 10/10
k750i 10/10

what do you mean k750i with 1gb? i have a 1gb card in my w800i
ive also noticed that the w800i have a slightly better camera
Posted by Manuel_max
BONDIE_86
Now the cam Software of k750 (new firmware) is more better that w800.
I gree with you ! both phone 10/10
Posted by bluebottle
is it just me who cant stand the start/stop button on w800? my phone's on silent, i'm putting it away or something, accidentally press the button and music starts to play. i just wish it could be disabled. it's handy when already in walkman but could lead to some awkward situations in meetings/lectures etc.
and the bloody camera shutter always slides open when i get it out of my pocket.
but i DO love it, dont get me wrong
ace phone. personally prefer the style and buttons to k750. just depends if you need the extra mem included. i couldnt afford to buy another one so that really swung it for me.

the phone camera doesnt accidently open as easy as the k750i atall so that is an advantage for the w800i, there will be many people who agree with me on this i think.
also, the music shouldnt start to play by itself if you have your keys locked... mine doesnt anyway...go to settings, stay on general, scroll down to play/pause button and put it on radio and then that will not occour
i hope this helps you and your meetings

anytime K750i...
1) looks r far better than W800
2)K750i + HPM-70 headphone + 512 MB memory card is cheaper than W800...
Now what more to say????????
Posted by Paoii
But if you are being offered a straight off choice between the two (like I was) it's better to go for the W800i. Same camera, better music function, headphones and a bigger card straight away.
Posted by BlueQuill
W800i any day
