I've had my SE W810i for a while now and want to upgrade. I spent ages last night searching for a phone to replace it but most seem to not offer the full complement of features that my W810 does.

I like lots of functions in a phone but the main things I look for in a phone are the camera quality/functions and ability to play MP3s/Radio. Here is my shortlist with my pro's and con's:

K850 - Very Good camera - Verging on too big/heavy - Most expensive
W760 - Good camera - No light and not out yet?
W890 - Good camera and compact - No light and not out yet?
W910 - OK Camera, compact, cheapest - Quite big and no light

I do like SE phones but am willing to consider others. For instance:
Samsung G800 - Very good camera - Biggest and heaviest

Please give your opinions on the above and provide any other suggestions preferably with same or better functions as my W810. Also if anyone has the release dates of the W760 and W890.

Thanks...

Had a quick look at the K810 and K770 - On the down side they are both a bit big on size and weight but not too hideous and they are maybe not as nice looking as the others on my list but on the plus side both have the perfect features I'm looking for which is great.

I will add them to my list for definate thanks.

Any other ideas guys???

W890 is just perfect.. I don't really care about the no AF cam, but it's slim, looks classy, new UI with the new walkman v.3, stereo speakers, and it's not slider.. The black ones looks great.. Really worth to wait.. And will be my next upgrading..

k770 is not that big and heavy. its even lighter than your w810 stevesmiff


with k810, you get better low light/ night shots thanks to its xenon flash. but downside is that its navigational system uses a joystick.

with k770, you also get the cybershot camera, minus the xenon flash and BESTpic. the screen is a bit smaller compared to k810.

remember this important rule:"u can't get it all",and about W810i,i don't think SE is gonna make a phone like that anymore,i have it already and very happy with it,and if u wanna change that phone,i think W910i is a very good alternative,i don't think it's that big,and u said it's CHEAP
