I Don't have doubts on K550 camera even it's image quality is less than what K750 does it can simply beat high-end 2 MP phones with AF or not example is the LG Prada and Nokia N76


I thought that LG PRada had AF??

How the general feel of the phone? Looks kinda low quality as far as the material used is concerned.

Someone wanted to see the box, dont remember who ( Pics taken by my K550i ):




Back of the box:



Accessories:



CD and Manuals( dont know why they gave the two diff color pics of the phone ):


edit: @QVGA it just feels slim and cozy, it feels just perfect in hands. The camera has that cover lens and i reckon its just perfectly built. And the IR port is at the top of the phone, forgot to take a pic from the top.

i do find the differences. k750's are sharper and well focused than the k550's.

800i mods: anti-hiss & increase earpiece + joystick cap(no hole). so slick

If you don't mine, can you again post some shots with two phones with autofocus and some shots in night??
This will really help ppl here to decide to choose a phone.

Hello, i'm new after just finding this forum, which has been really helpful so far, so thank you everyone.


I'm interested in buying this phone, after narrowing my search down from either this or an W810i, but considered that i'm more of a camera person.

I was just wondering about the following:

1) I noticed from specs that it doesn't have WAP, is this a big head-turner?
2) I also noticed that it can't video stream too, is this also a problem to those with the phone?
3) Can you put MP3's as ringtones?


Thanks very much.

It has WAP. Check the specs again : http://www.gsmarena.com/sony_ericsson_k550-1840.php
And you can use an MP3 as a ringtone bout video streaming dunno.

Ah, wonderful =D

On the main SE site, it says it doesn't though - strange.


Also, is there an organiser, notes, or to do list feature on SE's?
As i'm coming from a Nokia phone.
