I've the 750 which is as good as the 800 for pic/vid.

I'm pleased with the quality of the pics but the vid is a little small

128x96 or 176x144

but it's ok (check out the topics on Post your Pics using...)

don't know about the D600 - the D500 was/is good but I think some features have been omitted for the new model(600) that were in the 500 (can't remember what though - but it did bug me).

If I were to have my time again I would consider more the P range...

...You mention Video and Pictures more that WAP/mobile internet but having had the 750 for a month I think I would have liked to try the P910 (I think) for its applications etc...

...and probably wished I got the 750!!!!

Check out both SE and SAMs web sites and really find out what they all have to offer (probably won't help with the final choice) but if something you need is missing...

The samsung has some nice features but the K750 or w800 in my case swings it for me. If the camera is important then go for one of the models as the D600 doesn't have autofocus so close shots will not be a crisp as the phones.

Having had a play with the D600, I found that the camera lens position seems a little awkward as you want to hold the phone pretty much where the lens is.

= quality UI, camera, mp3 and so on

Thanks 4 your advice, the camera isnt that important to me but i do want a good one, is there a big difference between the camera on the w800 and the d600? or is the SE just marginally better

Not a big difference mate, although the is better the main difference is the autofocus which will give you crisper close up shots.

The D600 is without a doubt a very nice phone (I actually prefer the D500 form slightly) but I would still personally have the w800, I have a very good mp3 player but find myself using the w800's player more and more.

At the end of the day, it's your choice, try and have a play with the D600 and one of the models, it may help you make your decision
