Hanging around I came up with a comparison between w610 and w810 wich looks really appealing to me. Enjoy the pics:
W610 screen looks a lil bit bigger than w810 counterpart imho:
Back side sports a great design, as usual from SE:
Side by side. w610 looks really slim, big buttons for w810. fastport on the side for w610, bottom part for w810. I think fastport on the side is better when youre listening to your music with headset attached and the phone in your jeans pocket:
Keypad and soft keys. bigger ok button for w610 in this case, so its easier to handle:
Numeric keys. Slimmer for w610, same length as in w810:
2MP autofocus camera with 2 flash leds. Speaker bellow the camera module. Self portrait mirror only for w610. 3.8mm 1:3.2 lens for w610 and 4.8mm 1:2.8 for w810:
Camera interface for w610:
Same goes for w810:
Now the picture comparison. Clic for enlarge.
w610:
w810:
w610:
w810:
w610:
w810:
Walkman interface.
Walkman V2 for w610. Album Art. Stereo Widening. Changeable skins and also the time is displayed at the top of the screen while music is playing:
Walkman V1 for w810:
Both are great phones imho, each one with its pro and cos. Obviously SE didnt make a w810 successor in every aspect because of w810 market sales. I think Im with w610, as it will get some sound and camera drivers upgrade in the future, like w810 now. Cheers.

hi sorry can you translate in english please? lol
Posted by JuanPablo
Too bad everything is in chinese
Anyway, good comparisong, thanks. I'd buy a W610 when it comes out here. I prefer W610 over W810 mainly because is thinner and Walkman 2.0

Ok sorry about that, but the pics are almost self explanatory. Editing my previous post.

If only W610 had 4.8 mm lense and K550i lense cover it would be perfect!

The perfect phone does not exist

W610's keys are terrible and the camera is inferior. Not to mention, the lens isn't recessed like it is on the W810. Better not put that phone down on anything but silk!
Side-mounted FastPort makes no sense. Can't use HBH-__ car holders or MRC-60.
W810's memory card is externally accessible, W610's is not.
Also, MSDP 4 GB costs about the same as MS-Micro 2 GB. And the 4GB card isn't quite available yet.
W610 costs more.
I'll only buy a W610 when my W810 gives up the ghost and I can't buy another one.

@JuanPablo - I know but we can dream about it!

w610i look sik mobile

Hmmm, one error in your post that I noticed...the w610 does have a mirror, but so does the w810i. You said that the self-portrait mirror is only for the w610.
Posted by SloopJohnB
W810 is better people than W610 people.. no wonder one is 810 and the other is 610.
Posted by deepu
Yeah I was thinking the same thing about w810, is that orange circle bellow the camera module that helps as mirror in the white version? or is that silver circle frame around the camera? In black w810 there is no silver circle frame:
In the first case, I think is harder to see an orange mirror than a silver one.

The W610's chrome rings around the D-Pad etc. look tacky IMO.
Also, W810's pics appear to have better color than W610.

that is why i'm gonna stick to my w810
Posted by decim8thor
well yes the W610i does lack the capability to give out natural colors but only in artificial light; the open lenses i don't think it is a problem, i have a W900i for over a year now and i also have open lenses and they do not present any scratches, the screen does but the lenses do not, i take medium care of the phone.
Cons:
- The main disadvantage of the w610i are the keys which are very slim and hard to press and even harder to press for the ladies.
- Poor colors and quality in artificial light
- Talk time a bit smaller than w810i
Pros:
- Better CPU (W810i - 117 MHz | W610i 220 MHz)
- Slimier
- Walkman player 2.0
- Polyphonic 72 channels more than W810i
- Larger Phonebook

IŽll stay with my 810 for quite a while, fast port on side does not help when you connect the handsfree and you put the cell in a leather case, 810 gets the job done cuz its bottom port. ms pro duo is a lot cheaper than M2 and im thinking of gettin a 4gb, M2 so far gets to 2gb

Although the 610i is slimm n has got newer drivers, except for the walkman 2. There is nothing much better than 810i. And the pictures taken from 810i are lookin better too. I'll better stick to 810i till SE releases even better one.

And also the sms storage of the W810i can be increased if wanted.

You also left out the fact that w610i has flashlite themes pre-installed.
From what it seems, this phone is only worth getting as a new phone and not as an upgrade from w810i. This is most def. gonna be my next phone.
oh and Hlcn Twst, w610i does have externally accessible m2 slot, look at the pics! I think its the k550i which needs the back cover removed to access m2 slot.
And m2 prices will fall eventually, they're only expensive cos it's a new format. msproduo prices were v. high when it first came out too..

Right now, W610 is naturally the better buy. But for someone with a W810, there's not enough push factor to get a W610.
Posted by plankgatan
when i tried my friend w610i, i didnt like the "joystick". i feelt to plastic...........w810i have the best "joystick" and probably the best keypad, of all phones (only k810i who is close).
w810i feels more robust & solid then w610i.
i should take w810i.....no doubt about that !..........(Black color of course).

@QVGA
Nicely put.
And when you put them side by side, the W610 looks almost like an x-ray of the W810. Maybe it's just me
Posted by josesoto14
I just had in my hands a w610, and to be honest, for me those buttons were just too hard to press and control, they are so slim and small...I like phones with nice buttons that you could press without seeing them with no problem.
Posted by REO
W610 HAS A SMALLER LENS THAN W810
That is a signifcant difference. Camera is important in a good cam phone.

Hmm if it wasn't much more expensive to anyone WITHOUT the W810 its a better upgrade.
Pros:
* A2DP support
* M2 standard card (later this year MS DuoPro will begin to be harder to purchase as sources deplete) - just a hunch.
* Walkman 2.0 Player, Better skins
* not sure whatelse.
Cons:
* ugly Navigation pad.
* keypad for numerical keys look to slim to be function for fast & heavy SMS/ light emails (3 paragraph long emails, 20 word sentences, 3-4 sentences).
