If wants to build a definite range of music and imaging phones then I don't understand why people are disappointed when a Walkman phone cam doesn't have AF.

When the K750/w800 was launched was effectively using the one model to compete in a number of segments.

What we will see this year is a definite range of Walkman phones and a definite range of imaging handsets. If a Cybershot handset doesn't have a full Walkman player I can understand why. The W950i doesnt have a cam!

I still reckon that we will see a killer phone though, if not this year then next. Right now I think the W900 is still up there.

As I mentioned the white W850 earlier, it finally looks like Eldar has given his review of it:

http://www.mobile-review.com/review/sonyericsson-w850.shtml

Wow.. the Walkman interface looks really slick. This could be a true killer Walkman phone finally. Pity there's no native 3.5mm socket, but I guess thats what the HPM-82 will be for!

@ goldenface

Yeh, i know yiu shouldn't expect a good cam in a walkman phone and vice versa...but the point me ant 'tervel' are getting at, is that se should stop worrying baout all these new lines of phones, and start bringing out truly great phones. They ar ebeing by passed by nokia for funcitonality this year...they are simply putting all their best things into one or 2 phones...making the best phones thay can...

se have the capability to put a 3.2 camera with video quality up to the standard of w900, with a a top class walkman player, 3g and edge, bluetooth v2 and wifi all in one handset. Why Do We Not See This??? It's crazy...

A definite range leaves no one happy, well not many. A mixed range leaves you with the design accesories and style you prefer, more people are satisfied. Though my main point is that the w850 is expensive enough to have AF included, w700 you can understand.

Anyway, what would people prefer, a 2.0mpx without AF or a 1.3mpx with AF?
I'd definately go for the 1.3mpx with AF.

@arj2442 - Saying that we shouldn't expect what used to be standard on 3 walkman phones ALREADY, that being the W800 and W810 and the W900, defies logic. SonyEricsson has screwed up here Period. You don't go Backwards in offering, or you are going to see your fan base (and critics) riding you hard. Doing a walkman phone with NO auto focus after releasing 3 with is idiotic at best, unless the w850 is a lower end model that will be replaced by a w890 or something which will have it (doubtful).

Tervel, I share the same sentiment.

Hopefully they'll release something similar to the W850, but with autofocus, by the end of the year. Same sched as when they released the W900 and W550. I'm itching to use a wireless headset with which to listen to music.

I think the W850 is a W700 in K800 clothing, ie; the Tech is based on the old platform, not the newer K800 platform.

Anyway, looks like Eldar has a white W850, check out the pic from his W710 review:

Hope a review soon!



Here they are!!

huh?
who said tht to you?

www.sonyericsson.com/w850 allow you to select some asia country
it mean this phone is available in asia.

It might not be in China thru the official way as China still not having any WCDMA operator.

I am not sure 3G network is available in Philipine or not at the moment but for sure it will be coming to Malaysia, Singapore and HK.
