@ darrengf, sorry I did not brief you very well about the benchmarking. My mistake was I did not read carefully anything on the page that I have provided you. Anyway, to find out the speed of the processor you need to go here and download this:

Hello...
I got a brand new K850i Luminous Green Unbranded phone just today, and checked that he comes with the firmware 029.
I installed SEUS in my PC, and follow the on screen instructions... but it says me that the phone is already updated... what could be happening??
I need some help.... |

Dark Photos Issue Again....
Everyone It seens that no one anymore is talking about dark photos again.... So here is for all who tried to help me THANKS AND SORRY!!! Really sorry. My K850i is until in the R1CA037 firmware but my dark photos is 99% solved... This phone really have a constrution fault... And the fact is the mode that you hold the phone is a way that you canīt have at all no fingers or other else in the back of it... The problem is I Thoug the you soulhd be carefull only not to put your fingers above or really near the flash sensor... but the truth is no fingers at all at the back... I was used to my K800i wich has a protected flash sensor...
The other 1% is really software issues the photo dosent get dark at all but it should be more brighter... In some wide spaces it get a little red...
So if you hold the phone like this guy you should have almost any problem with dark photos...
Anyone want to say sorry also??? Just kidding but was just a matter of pay atention...
Take this way and you dont have dark photos:

if you end up with black photoes, just set your iso to 400 and evrrything will be fine  i thought you guys knew this by now. |

That's what I was saying from the very beginning. 
Anyways, back on the K850i bandwagon, got a cheap one, but its a 07W40. Again it has the standby clock LED unevenness. May probably get rid of it when the price drops for a newer build. |

It seems lot of people don't care about it but what about video recording quality? It's not acceptable to have such low video bitrate even at 320*240,it's very pixelised! nokio phones at 320*240 30fps are far better and it's only a matter of FW calibration so don't you hope that SE repair this too in the upcoming big FW?

people do care, but theyre far more worried about the camera's still picture quality. specially when using the flash. the camera is the reason most people buy this phone, and it dosent work properly. so hopefully its what they fix first. id really like to be able to take pictures of faces without getting flashburn. |

I don't hink my K850i have bad video quality, K800i was a lot worse... Isn't fair compare to Nokias becouse they have a worse still camera and no flash at all...
I use the R1CA037 firmware but yes i think SE may improve the video quality by a new firmware lets wait until january 20 an see what happens.. |

Is it a bit uneven in the bottom of the screen, aligned with the touch buttons? If this is not normal I have it too. 07W45. |

The large clock is still there. It is on mine anyway (O2) so don't see why it wouldn't be available on yours...... |

I doubt they will improve it and yes, it is quite fair to compare Nokias and SE. Don't want to mention feature differences, but small difference in camera qualities cannot justify BIG difference in video recording and playback. I didn't had problems converting videos for N95. I used same settings for K850i and of no use. Varying speed and offset voice playback... even after quality decrease...
Nokia with no flash? Could be true if you have said it 1 month ago.. Don't get me wrong but having K850i doesn't mean being blind.
It is slow, needs improvements and needs them quickly..

Try to master reset the phone. For the clock, you can find the setting in the settings>display> clock size |

Did you try to take out the battery for a few mins? I cannot remember anything else. Few people here had same problem.. Looks like phone doesn't clean after himself |
