hey ppl..
just bought the k790i..phones good but the speaker aint loud enuf..thts probbly cuz im an ex 550i user now..
but even the output on the headphones is bad....the included headphones sound ok but when i use hpm-70 the sound is sooo low and hardly any bass..
morever i connected my bose headphones using hpm 70 and the volume was still not so loud..
is there anyway to overcome this....can a firmware make the output louder through headphones other than the included ones??
please reply...really sad..

Yes ive read this in many reviews that the speaker output of the K790/800 is pretty low. So i would like to confirm this from all users of these fone, how much is the external speaker volume(max) in terms of normal music playing,incoming calls,sms as compared to another model....say a W800?

the speaker is clearer than that of the k750i/w800, though when the k750 equaliser is up its much louder, but again its not as clear as k800i....
and the headphone volume really needs to be louder.... |

hey ppl..
thx 4 discussing the audio output...as everyones saying the speaker is quite bearable but for a user like me who loves listening to music on his phone the sound through headphones is really low and very bad...i wonder why the hpm 70 which worked really well with 550i dont even give around half the output on this thing...has anyone tried any other headphone on this thing which gives good sound please let know...
finally could we hope that se would give a new firmware where increase in output>??? |

If you buy your phone from another country in Europe is the warrenty still valid? |

for those people who actually bought or used the phone, what would you say about its size and weight compared to K750i?
are they so much more that they become a problem or is the K800/790 slightly bigger and heavier than the K750/W800? |

aydahm, The K800 is about 15g heavier than the K750, which is about 15%. It is slightly longer, a tiny amount wider and other than the lens bulge is about the same thickness. It does feel more substantial but it is weighted well.
A problem I have found is that the keypad is too low and keys too cramped to be comfortable, unlike the K750 where they are better proportioned.
When you look at the phone face on, it looks like it will be a lot slimmer than it is, which is okay I guess. If you cope fine with the K750, you will be fine with the K800 once you get used to it. If the K750 is already on the heavy.big side for you then maybe you should try it yourself.

All in all, the K800 is slightly bigger, however, like said above it feels more substantial, the added weight doesn't weigh you down, but to me makes me think that the phone is solid, the extra length is only a couple of millimetres and so hardly noticable after a while. Basically, I've found it quite a comfortable phone to use.
Cheers
