Recently SE is only thinking about their profit making and nothing else.they just like to increase their sales introducing different models with different features which could have all been used in one device.
Just think a minute: After a year of waiting 4 K850:
they eliminate play/pause button, they eliminate MegaBass, They do not use their iMobile CCD sensor,.....
What they do:a bigger screen, a bit of interface changing and nothing else.
Where are those glorious days of K750?: The first and the all-time best 2MP camera phone with mega bass, with a real shutter,.....
I'm really disappointed with SE. I'm still sticking to my K750. BUT I'm thinking about changing the brand..... |

Go ahead and good luck 
That review from the camera is really awesome, it gives you a very good example of the camera capabilities. I expect a full review soon on GSMArena too

I think he has a point. The days of simple facelift upgrades with sham special features are over. The competition is going all out on their product models (N95, iPhone) and SE responds with the same pseudo-facelift...

Do you even know what a shutter is? =\\...
Someone mentioned about CMOS vs CCD. Well, my digital camera uses a CMOS sensor and I'm loving it. Quality is superb and noise at high ISO is not very visible when compared to the CCD competition (High ISO as in 1600/3200). |

The K850 is a nice phone. To me it's just a prettier K800 with 2 more MPs. Not very excited about it anymore. I wish SE could make an all in one phone like the W900 even if I have to pay an extra $100-150 for it, I'll buy one!
In Eldar's review, some of the N95 pictures were better than the K850. So the N95 is still holding it's own against a DEDICATED CYBERSHOT K850, but the N95 does so many other things that the K850 can't. Anyone, besides a die hard SE fanboy, will have a hard time justifying buying a K850 over an N95 if they are in the same price bracket. I know I would! |

The sensor in the i-mobile 902 is actually made by Sony!

1. What model of camera is that?
2. Don't compare regular digicams with camphones. The difference in sensor size is very large. See this page for more on sensor sizes and their impact on picture quality. I also have a good digicam with a CMOS sensor, the Canon 300D, with a 22.7x15.1mm sensor. But I would never compare it to a camera phone.

Excuse me, but are you talking about a mobile phone in here?? Lot's of people post comments like they are discussing about compact camera only!
Am I the only one who admires the network capability of K850? It's the first mobile phone in the world which can work in:
UMTS/HSDPA 850/1900/2100 and GSM/GPRS/EDGE 850/900/1800/1900.
Quad-band GSM + three-band UMTS + EDGE + HSDPA!
Impressive! Magnificent!
A true world phone!

im not a SE fanboy, but im going to buy it anyway
And i think that only two pictures that were taken by n95 won. Eldar mentioned that k850 didnt won a big vitory, but it i was not a small victory either.
But if the price is nearly going to be the same, then n95 would be better, but i think (and hope) k850 will be a bit cheaper

@k850 successor
I really hope it's fairly affordable as well. I'd love to try one. But after being spoiled by UIQ3 and S60, I doubt I can get used to "normal" phones again. Until a 5MP UIQ 3.1 comes out I'll soldier on with my buggy yet trusty P990. :] |

It would be pretty awesome if the K850 had "Quad-band GSM + three-band UMTS + EDGE + HSDPA!" like you said. But unfortunately it's either UMTS/HSDPA 850/1900/2100 or GSM/GPRS/EDGE 850/900/1800/1900. Yup, 2 different hands sets. Feel free to correct me if I'm wrong, anyone. |

@dextrr,
Don't confuse K850 with k858c which has only quad band gsm plus edge. K850 has UMTS/HSDPA/850/1900/2100-gsm/gprs/edge/850/900/1800/1900  |

Will the 3 top buttons be like the Samsung 'touch' buttons? |
