Is it worth to replace my W800i for a W900i? |

I have my W800i since 1 month. But I think to replace it for a W900i. As my phone is already used, I'll sell it at a price, which is almost the half of the price of a new W900i. So, please tell me- is it worth? As far as I know, the advantages of the W900i are:
1. Bigger internal memory - 470Mb.
2. Larger display.
3. Edge GPRS.
4. MPEG video format.
5. Battery 1000 mAh
Anything else? And which housing colour is more preferable - the white or the black one?
And once again - is it worth? Thank you.

if u really want an unbiased opinion,unless u really need 3g d w900i is not really an upgrade if u already have a w800i.

@khan,
Thank you for your opinion! 
I wonder if the sound quality of W900i's player is better, that the W800i's one. Because I saw a thread: http://www.howardforums.com/showthread.php?t=839704
where is written detailed about the W900i player's performance, but nothing about W800i.

U should give a try on your own to judge music quality.every statement would be individual. Imo w9 isnt big deal, a bit more advanced w8

3. It has 3G not EDGE.
The main advantage of the W900i over the W800i is the video calling and bigger internal memory (doesnt come with a memory stick so the W800i has more when you include the 512mb mem stick). |

I'd say it isn't worth the upgrade. I've had the w800 since august and love it. Got the w900 few weeks ago and hated it! Was far too big for my liking. Video quality was amazing tho. Im gonna stick wit my trusty w800 til the w810 comes out

@raverbaby,
Which video is amazing? W800's or W900's. What would you say, when you compare them?

I also don't feel that W900 is a worthy upgrade from a W800.
Pros
+ Larger screen
+ 3G
+ Better video recoding quality
Cons
- Phone is large
- No integrated FM radio
- Swivel keypad looks cool but a hassle (at least for me )
- Price |

I had a k750 and switched to w900 and I don't regret at all!
Videos are far away better on w900 because you upgrade from the max 200kbs 20 fps to the max 450kbs 30 fps and beleive me it's like watching tv.
Memory is huge.
The screen is large and will reveal details of pics you couldn't have on the k750/w800 small screen, here you go from 176*220 to 240*320!!!
Games are very funny now.
The swivel swiss knife keypad is very ''stylish'' in front of girls.
The only and unique thing that the w800 has as a advantage is the size.
GO BUY IT NOW

the fm radio on the handsfree of the w900i doesn't allow you to save a radio station.so if you wanna surf through radio stations,you can't.you have to manually program each station every time.

It is bundled with a FM radio, but an external one (size of a thumb drive). Look at the attached image. It kind of defies the all-in-one concept.
