NO! Dont get it! Im sorry but its just not reliable, took mine out its box again today, played around with it for around 3hours. Had it freeze TWICE and had to take out the batt and put it back in both times. Rather get a C510 or C901.

Its just very problematic. You will just be pissed if you're coming from a superb phone, let's say a K800. You should rather get a C901.

why not get a k850,i wanted to change my for Lg Viewty,but i'm staying with k850,with R1FA035 firmware i haven't got a reboot once for a long time,k850 is a good phone,i'm very happy with it,just insert a good cam driver and good acoustic driver and i'm pretty shure that you will be happy also.
Btw,C901 is also a good solution,but if you wan't a k850 just go for it,a lot of people said that I should stay away from k850,but i got it 1.5 years ago and i'm very happy with it.
Yes,a good bunch of people had a problem with it,but there's a always a solution for it,and another bunch of people ,like me,are happy with k850.
Hope I helped

Yes dude.. i stick to zokowmali suggestion...
i have been using K850I for sometime around now. My factory firmware (R1CA037) had some problems, but only minor
ones a slow media player, camera response etc and i was on the verge of buying another one!!!
But all that was cleared when recently i flashed it with the R1FA035. Now i have modded camera and acoustic
drivers installed and "ITS JUST SIMPLY THE BEST".
Now its all perfect, takes best photos and a very good audio experience.
I suggest u go for it, if u really like it.
thanks

just dont get it here is why


1. i had k750/k800/k700/t610/k850 and now w995 and among these k850 is the worst

2. the touch keys wont work is water droplets fall on it. this usually occurs when you are outside and sweating and when you attend the call , your touch keys wont work

3. crappy build

4. scratch prone. it very hard to keep it away from scratch

5. k850 is phased out model , IMO get w995 or something reliable , really not htis crap

hi naveensiva,
i agree to ur one reason against K850i, bout the scratch. yes its prone to scratches.
but regarding keys not working, i don't agree.. cos i do travelling a lot due to the nature of my job,
and i come across almost every kinds of weather rain, snow, dirt etc. and i almost get my mobile soaked,
but immediately clean it, and maybe becos of that i dont get the peob u mentioned.
and again its not that crappy build. there are people who like this build.
but as u said its been a longtime now and if people need latest features they should go for a new model
than this. But still its the best.

This is asked many times and my first reaction is as always, skip K850 and get a C901. Only buy it if you get it cheap, and hope that you've got a good one.
