Yes, the K750i did have MegaBass. I am not sure I like the fact that SE are trying to split music and imaging with two distinct brands.

Okay, I can understand why they are doing the branding, but do they have to deliberately restrict the functionality? Even if they had one phone that had 3.2 megapixel, autofocus, flash, Walkman player, megabass etc - they could still sell it in two different 'guises'. This is what happened with the K750 and W800 (the exceptions being flight mode, which the K800 does have, headphones, walkman button/activity button and the PC software/memory card).

I am into photography, so the K800 is great. But, I like to listen to music and the K800 isn't up to scratch (although I do like the fact it fades the volume when a text comes in, or any other alert happens).

There is very little difference between w800 and k750. Besides looking different physically, the music player also looks different but functionality is similar. The k750 did not have flight mode ( i think.) Oh and they came with different sets of headphones.

The W800 had the WALKMAN media player (which supported full screen video playback). The activity button launched the player instead.

It had a 512MB card, Sony headphones+adapter, PC Disc2Phone software and the casing was different - VERY different! Oh, and flight mode (which was on the original K750 and only taken off at the last minute to further differentiate the two models).

A quick firmware update quickly swaps the firmware from one to the other, but the W810 combined the two phones perfectly, with a much nicer screen, EDGE, web browser, RSS reader and a few other improvements.

Anyone know if the K800 does/will support flash themes? I have tried flash themes from my w900 and w550 but they dont work.

I would imagine if any the w850 ones should work because the phones are from the same platform. Any beta testers with a w850 tried this?

Thanks

I don't think the k800 supports flash themes, because these themes are built into the firmware of the phone. As you may have noticed that u cannot create these flash themes using the theme creator.

The MegaBass on the K750i was slighltly hidden - you go to Equilizer and then choose Presets - that's how you get all the different options. I always used the custom setting so never paid much attention to presets.
