I still have my ever reliable w810 fone with me as my secondary fone and im still loving it. It serves as my mp3 player and pocket camera in one. I would like to upgrade to a newer walkman fone but i would like it to have a better camera.

The last Walkman handset I used back in London, was the W960i at CPW.
Its got a 3.2MP Shooter, with Autofocus and a Dual LED Flash - im sure you can find some shots with the handset from some users here on Esato.
Admittedly though, the Camera module found in the K750i/W800i/W810i was something of a rarity, and is still considered superior to the majority of 2MP modules available today.

I had the W810i for a long time and the camera pictures I've still got on my PC from it are awesome. As Sony Alpha said, this module was a real one off. To be honest, the W810i along with the W800 are the best Walkman cameras. The 3.2mpx unit of the W960i is a bit pants in comparison. The pictures are good quality, but the interface is really really slow and a bit buggy. Not a quick snapper like the W810i.

Thanks for the inputs. So, do you also think the w810 still has the best camera for walkman series? im thinking of upgrading because i feel like the newer walkman fones must be sounding better.
I just read a review for the k850 and users say its media player is comparable to walkman player. I might consider upgrading to this handset.

please dont do that! Any SE model but the K850! Your best to go with any other A200 platform SE model then, as they all have the new media player similar to walkman phones. |

thanks for the heads up. however, may i know the downside with the k850? and can you explain what you mean with A200 platform?
I am basically looking for a handset similar to my w810 but with better camera and audio experience. 3G/HSDPA would be a bonus of course. so far no luck.

'A200' is the name given to the current Sony Ericsson Operating system ( Java Platform 8 ).
It is distinguished from A100 by the 'Call/Hang Up' keys, and 'Media' softkey to the left of the main screen.
The W910i and K850i were the first two handsets to support the platform -now we see others such as the C902, and C702 hit the A200 mark!

Lad at work gets his 5th replacement K850 delivered tomorrow, his 4th one died today.
Reliability aint a K850 strong point, ive seen how slow it is to use plus im not impressed with the pictures it takes considering its meant to be a 5mp camera phone. |

i have owned a w810 before ( i miss it) and i must say its camera is great..
i have used a w960 and i can say that the camera is good.
But between the two, i will go for the w810 in terms of camera
w960 white balance is not as accurate as w810. ive compared them with settings set to auto.
so apart from the increased resolution, and better video recording of w960, imo w810 is a better camera performer than w960 (considering the ease of use, camera UI)
To answer the question, which walkman has a better camera than w810?: SAKURA W900!
w900 has almost the same camera UI and performance with w810 save from the spot photometry, infinity focus and the excellent (i loved it) QVGA 30fps video recording

"Which Walkman fone has better camera than w810?"
None yet, other than W900 which has almost the same camera result only slightly better...
I don't know why others are saying W960 camera is better than W810's??? It just has more MP but otherwise the result are not even close... |

because  900 was released first than 810 and as it is older they just think of a new one. and because of this
