hello...I have a k700i and love it, but I am thinking of upgrading. I really don't like the look of the w800i though, as someone mentioned, it looks unprofessional and cheap. Its also kinda expensive (£350 for a sim free!) and being a student I dont like to waste money! So.....is the only adv of the w800 over the k750 the walkman? I already have an iriver ifp999 mp3 player so I couldn't care less about the substandard mp3 built into either anyway.

Is the camera the same in both?

thanks

Every aspect of the phones UI and specs are almost the same except:

1, W800 has better media player
2, The K750 has the activity button above the joystick. on the W800 it goes to the media player.
3, W800 comes with a 512Mb ms dou pro/K750 comes with 64Mb ms duo pro.
4, W800 comes with the HPM 70 headset which is better than the on supplied with the K750.

If you have an mp3 player already I would suggest the K750.

And to my knowledge both cameras are the same and produce very good quality pictures.

alright thanks! do you know the cheapest place to get one sim free? i know i could unlock it myself but I dont like having a logo on it. I got my k700i from mobilefun and the k750i sim free is £299 on that site.

the next question...the black version or the blasted silver?! I would choose silver but I'm sure I read someone say it looks cheaper than the black one?!?

Stick to your K750i....
Try and get the W800i HPM-70 headphone instead.

I've got them both , they both have R1L002 firmware.
download the disk2phone from SE website W800i support.
you can use them on K750i....good program.

The black one looks much better, also i think the silver k750 is only available from vodaphone.

Amazon.co.uk do the k750 sim free post free for 249.99
