As a W800i owner I see no reason to change to a K790 - K800. The 3 MP camera wont make the difference, the media player wont, the applications wont, the memcard support surely wont and imo the design isn't that great. I'll stick to my W800i for now and I'll wait for real changes to appear in the mobile phone development. Surely this phone will be a hit, but don't be dissapointed if you just bougt a K750 or W800i. They are still top class phones!! |

the looks of this phone is a disappointment after the K750i... I wish it weren't like this but from the current pictures, the phone looks really ugly.
still, its properties are good enough for an upgrade I think. |

I'm dissapointed with the K800/K790 
Ok it brings the 3.2 MP camera... but for me nothing new, bad choice for the lens cover, we will see if the joystick it's good or not (why SE didn't use the D PAD of the W810???  ) poor video, Design, etc...
I thought that the K800/K790 in the near future was the replacement of my K750 but now it's not an option

Agree with most people on here... it's nice to see a new SE and successor to the K750, but for me it doesn't represent the leap the K750 did from the K700.
The camera, although 3.2 doesn't look much better than the K750 one, and the nice shots wern't anything special.
Also its a shame the size has increased, i like the small form factor of the K750. But the biggest annoyance for me is the M2 slot, why, oh why SE; after those people who forked out for high-capacity duo cards, do you change the card format, it just sticks of plain sillyness!
Granted, the screen does look nice, not sure about the design; it doesn't look bad, but those keys look little too cramped for me. Also, although its too early too see, the dreaded joystick problem looks like it hasn't been resolved.
Saying that, i probably will get it, if i can upgrade it on my contract when it comes out in June/July - its just a real shame it wasn't just that little big bit better (smaller, duo card support, etc).
I think the issue most people have with it is that it really isn't that much better than the K750, it just doesn't have the wow factor that i'm used to from SE phones.
We shall see.... |

Wow, now I know why I didn't upgrade to the K750i. All my friends were like, god there hasn't been a new phone for ages, I'm fed up, and went out and got like, D600's and V3i's, and I've stuck with the abuse I get about my E720. And now I know why I waited!
I think this looks great, the pics in Eldar's review are amazing, and I really like the design, I love the mesh at the top. (I'd get the K790i), looks really nice.
I am very impressed, although I also have to complain about the M2. I really see know point. Because they complain about size issues, but they get the smaller card, and the phone gets bigger.... (although I prefer larger phones  )
Anyway, just wait for it to come out on Orange, get some DaVinci credits at hand, and off we go!

if you 'don't' use video calling, whats better to have... 3g or edge?
like, if i got a k800, i wouldn't use the video calling, since no one i know has it too, but if i got a k790, would i be missing out on any other great things that 3g can give?

I guess the major disappointment 4 me is the QCIF 15fps. I'm truly hurt .........as my Maternal Uncle's Samsung E-730 has a 320x220 resolution video, and I really use video a lot |

To all you people who say there is know WOW factor - what about the xenon flash?
Finally I will be able to go on a night out and not have to remember to take my digicam!!!
Was going to get the W900i end of this month but will now be waiting for
this!
P.S. I know it's not a major upgrade from my K750 - video is disappointing and as M.R. says its more evolution than revolution but I cannot ignore the built in flash!
k750 Now!!! |
