I was looking back at old threads I had made through-out being a member on Esato and came across a For Sale thread for my W800i.

Looking at the phone I remembered how much I LOVED that phone. It was truely amazing. Just the Orange and White casing and I can remember at the time the camera was awesome. (better than any of my friends cam phones)

I really want another W800i to use as a 2nd phone etc. Whats the max memory card the W800i could take?

Does anyone still have a W800i and if so whos willing to sell?

Regards

James

I loved my W800 as well, but one word of advice.

I sold my T610 and recently bought a refurbished one just for old times sake. A phone never seems that good the second time around. You will notice no flash themes, small memory cards, small firmware bugs.

After you've spent the best part of £50 on an old W800 you'll wonder why looking at your new flashy C905.

ugh, no. I got my W800 at 8am on the day it came out (12th August 2005) and by lunch time I had returned it.

Here are my comments on that day

4GB MS Duo if you are lucky.

Most likely 2GB is the max, unless SEMC has fixed the SW bug (using short integers)

This comment is not valid here...............bad mouthing the wonder that was the Sony Ericsson W800i

Now I have got to say after starting this thread I managed to get my hands on a W800 (didnt cost much). After playing around with it for 5 minutes I got bored and now it sits in a drawer for the next time I miss that sexy White and Orange housing hahaha.

Recently I got my third W800 : brand new inbox.
Yes, it's "brand new" but it's manufactured on end of 2005.
The seller got this early 2006 as a door prize and he never opened it.
I'm so happy...

When k750 and w800 made it to the market, over three years ago, I couldn't afford it.

But two weeks ago I bought a nice box of disassembled k750s
