In my country, my wife bought the phone for roughly around US$340... And K750 is around US$390 here, so judging from the price, the K750 is better (good camera + expandable memory slot). But the K750 only comes with 64 MB MSdp and standard phones. Add an extra 256 MB MSdp+walkman phones (HPM-70 is helluva better than the one bundled with K750), the price could jump to around US$445ish... 30% is more than I could handle (actually I could, but I have to limit myself for this kind of things).

But off course, if you didn't after the music aspect of the phone, K750 is a sure fire shot.




Thank you for the advise,
I like the music future more than a good camera,
becouse I plan to buy some digital camera soon,
but in other hand I like the design and syle of the K750
its more serios phone.
So propably I will wait abouth cristmas and then I will decide
what will take depence of price and what camera I will take.

Propably the best solution will be to take a W800 but I don't like it's
design and is to expensive. [addsig]

What is the feature called "stereo widening"? Is it like a surround sound or spatial sound feature? I always think the K750 sound is lack of surround settings.

Will they implement this to K750?

Technically I don't know, but when this feature is active, the sound on the headset really feels like it is widening... But for me, the sound quality degrades a bit so I never used it.

@Midiamp :

Which themes changes the menu from 3x4 icons to the other system?
My W550i has the 4 themes, Breakbeat, Clubpulse, Shineline and Default and none of them will change the menu format.

Is there somethign else that needs to be done?

Clubpulse and Breakbeat... Are you sure? Because I don't change anything on the settings. The Breakbeat animation menu has big wavy line on the background while the Clubpulse has selected sub menu icon logo bouncing up and down.

Breakbeat and Clubpulse will change the menu's interface. I didn't do anything extra, it changed when I selected any of the above themes I mentioned.

@ Turboy

Mine's the same too, R4AB048, CXC1250086 (with additional CHINA_EL displayed on Float's Mobile Agent). I think I have to straight some things first.

With the Breakbeat and Clubpulse theme, when I click on the menu icon (default to the button above C and center button on the joypad), the screen will display icons in row to left or right only. The other two themes (default and Shineline) will display the familiar 3 x 4 icons. In what arrangement does your phone menu displays using the Breakbeat and the Clubpulse theme? Is it the same 3 x 4 icons?
