which mobile phone would you say is better: k800i or w810i? why?

i don't know which one to get!! help!! which mobile phone out of the two is newest?

what is the highest capacity the k800i can take: 1gb, 2gb, 4gb or 8gb?

which colour should i get the k800i in: black, silver, brown? why?

should i go for the k800i over the w810i? why?

i keep thinking that the w810i is the newer than k800i. is this correct?

The K800 is newer, basically a next generation version of the w810. If you want EDGE, get the K790 - it is the same phone but with EDGE instead of 3G.

The K800 is better than the W810 in almost every way - bigger screen, better screen resolution, better camera. I am currently using a k790 and I love it, I have had it for 2 years.

Between the w810 and k800, the k800 is much better. But here the k810 is involved which is slightly better than k800. So if you like the k800 design more, you can buy it and flash it with k810 firmware

I have K800i silver its great i love it except its a little slow at times with menus or things loading. With the K800i you get better camera better screen plus the added bonus of 3G and music player sounds as good as any Walkman i would say. K810 i have not had.

I would say a K800i as it offers more compared with the W810i,
whichever way tho both are reliable handsets

@ Bono, I had one of those once the 007 version..
I thought it was pretty fast running through the menu's and the 3G was very quick I never had any issues with it but the only reason I sold it cos I was pretty bored of it after 3 months

loved the Fish and Golf games though

You'll get PhotoFix and onboard TrackID.
from my observations, sometimes it's better off not knowing.

i used to own the excellent W810 and i only have praises for it - overall excellent build quality and symmetrical design, magnificent AF camera and of course - its a Walkman!

i shifted to K810 primarily only because of the optimal pixel rating (3.2mp vs. W810's 2.0mp) with the Xenon flash to boot Other than these, my heart still belongs to my once-beloved W810!

K810 is little more expensive than K800, but keep in mind it is newer, has better firmware, you may like it's design (personally I don't ) and it comes with a 128mb M2 memory card which is little advantage compared to the K800 package which doesn't include memory stick at all

actually it depends on the store/region/country.
you can always find one if you know where to look

Id say; go for the K800i, especially now when it's at it's lowest price I think... 139 euro's in my country.
I have him now for almost a year and he never let me down:-)
