Personally, I think the W890i looks better than W880. They are very similar and almost in the same size, BUT still W890 looks better. With bigger screen and stronger key button may be one of the reason. And the bronze (brown) metallic casing may be one bigger reason afterall.

W890i width comparison with W880i






W890i thickness comparison with W880i






W890i front design comparison with W880i. You can see the screen is bigger and the keys are bigger and stronger. Not as thin as the W880i keys.






W890i back design comparison with W880i. This time the back cover is all metal and with matched color.

I still think the W880i looks more eyecatching. Possible the best looking SE. I hate that colour of the W890i.

In my opinion, W890 has to be one of SE's most beautiful phones ever. The beautiful backside alone could easily knock out W880.

W880i for me, not a big fan of the rounded edges on the W890 - although the silver version does look nice!

I don't see whats so appealing about the W880i. It looks old, uncomfortable to use (I'm not talking about the keypad, I'm talking about the sharp looking corners), the back is plain boring, and the screen looks far too small compared to the phone's size.

The W890i improved on everything the W880i did in my opinion, and it looks way better.

from the beginning i never liked the 880, but when the was released i changed my mind. its curves make it look way much better and sexy.

For me the W890 looks better, too. The only advantage of the older W880 was its rubberized back.
But I liked mby W880 very much - until the W890 was out ...

W890 looks so classy.
from my observations, sometimes it's better off not knowing.

Its the W890 for me too. I have a W890 and my girlfriend has the W880 and side by side its like Lindsey Lohan and Megan Fox. Both sexy but one has a lot more class!
