1
Advantages- c702 has a larger screen, a tough phone design, a200 platform, gps
Disadvantages- ugly( in my eyes), only has a dual-led flash

I haven't personally played with a c702 so i can't provide too much of an opinion

2.
Advantages- c902's screen is the same size but more scratch resistant( not sure if it's the same for the 702), better build, a more stylish and compact phone, better daytime camera, a200, more in built memory
Disadvantages- photoflash unit is still hopeless compared to xenon, keypad is far from comfortable

K850 much better because of the great cam (when modded), good sound motion sensor, flash lite 2.0, big screen

I got my K850i 3 on Thursday last week and I am very satisfied so far. The interface and buttons takes some getting used to, but when you know your way around the phone, it's great.

A lot of people complain about the phone shutting itself down (Blue Ring of Death or BROD) but it really isn't that bad. Mine did it only twice and after I de branded it (from Vodafone to generic firmware) it hasn't done it once.

The camera quality needs some modding to be at it's best (it's very easy and fun), the sound quality is very good (even compared to some high end Walkman phones), the screen is HUGE (2.2 inch, where i.e. the c902 is only 2.0 inch).

The 3G with HSDPA is very fast and the built in browser is very user friendly (although I use Opera mini 4.2).

After a program called A2uploader was released it is possible to fully mod the k850i, including camera drivers, sound (acoustic) drivers, flashing firmware and de branding etc.

So I would get the K850i :)

I have a K810i and it is sweet. Love it. Very reliable and sturdy. Plus lens cover.
