Price is indeed almost the same in Sweden.
Besides, please get your facts straight people,the W550 is NOT 3G, it is also not a slider, it´s swivel, just like the S700
Use one of numerous "compare phones" sites available
Oh, and i´d choose the K750i out of the two. Or wait for W900..

I think for the money spent it is better on K750 though.

W550 is very nice (plus 'stereo widening' feature that makes me wondering all time) but that small screen will even looks smaller in that swivel form factor.

Feature-wise K750 still wins ahead... IMO

I had the same problem earlier this month with which to buy...

W550
K750
W800

the only transformer phone (Clam/Flip/Swivel) I like is the D500...

...thumb up and it's on - simple

but as a rule I don't go for flip phones...

that rulled out the W550

the W800 comes with stacks more memory (512MB I think) but was on a higher tariff than both W550 and K750...

...but the tariff included double mins and text for just £5 more (£60 over a year which is probably more than a 512MB stick!!!).

...well worth it I thought so I'll go for the W800.

as the two shops I visited didn't have them in stock I finally went for the K750i.

Try for a good deal with the W800 or go for the K750.

Check out online deals before going to the shops...

I think alot of people are mixing up the W550 and the W900. Big difference!!!!

i would personally want to save on 'pocket space' and get the K750. Why have something bulky in ur pocket, when you can get a better phone for the same price?

i guess its down to 'form' not 'function' as they have most similar functions.... [addsig]

Simple, K750! W550 is a pointless phone seeing as though if you want an MP3 phone, the w800 is far superior. \The 550 is too big and not a great design, plus , not as good a cam.It has to be the K750i!

hmm. I bought the 550 & sold it in a day & bought 750 after which I thought I liked the 550 better & the speakers are awesome on teh 550 whereas 750 speaker is no match, ofcourse my main use will be the fm & mp3 so I was more inclined to 550 & it was cheaper & with inbuilt 250 MB (which is enough for me with fm included). Once again speakers are really great on the 550 & once u listen to them u will find something missing in the 750 & 800 both. + the joystick in 750 is kindof (IMO) difficult & the joypad of 550 is much better & so is the dialpad better.
