i wish there was more availabilty of this phone in SA no-one seems to have it or can explain about the functions. it really suck!

For those having trouble with picture quality. a great tip is that the light censor builds up dirt (its just under the flash. Use a cocktail stick or similar to get rid of the dirt and it will take much better photos. Whwen dirt gets in there it thinks its darker than it is and thus over does it with the flash causing horrid pics. Hope that helps!!

I've had the K850 for several weeks and I think there is something wrong with the camera, either mine is screwed or the phone is not as good as it's supposed to be! the pics are not at all clear!! I've tried playing with all the setting but its still not working. Has anyone had this problem? or any problems with the camera?
Thanks

To the last post, I have exactly the same problem, it's very frustrating, and sony or 02 will not fix it. I am cheesed off to say the least, it's a great phone up until last week when it started switching itself off all the damn time!

It's sick....can't wait 2 have it but nobody will buy it for 500$ but it's worth 300-400$!
By Mart , 18/12/07 8:51 AM (CommentID #397506)
Have owned the k850i for approx 3 weeks, got to say it is fantastic. Previous phone was the k800i, a great phone however Sony have made great improvements with the functionality and technology of the k850i. This phone is completely redesigned, unlike the 810i which was a k800i in drag. N95 is just to big, bulky and software too complex as compared to windows mobile.

I admit this phone is awesome, but seriously...500 dollars...thats INSANE!!!

when you use this phone u will forget about the keypad and all the other stuff, Sony Ericsson's products are a pleasure to have, to look at and to use.
Best phones ever looking at their program their graphic quality, the sound quality and the features it acquire.
I will get this phone when it's available
By Tayne Netherwood , 04/10/07 1:37 PM (CommentID #322564)

this phone don't have wireless right..?
By david , 19/09/07 6:58 AM (CommentID #306405)
This phone is not a smart phone and obviously won't have the exact spec's as the hideously grotesque and enormous n95, but it's battery life, picture quality, sound quality, software and general useability will be leagues ahead of the n95 dinosaur. As for the keepad you are all complaining about it's supposed to be touch sensitive, as well as having 3 touch sensitive buttons on the screen, so you won't accidently press 2 and 5. Awesome phone sony

this machine is awesome, got the K800i en handled the K810, for months now & still impressed with SE. Cant wait to manhandle the machine. why get the rest wen this is the BEST. 3 cheers for Sony Ericsson.

By Knock-ear Nokia , 29/08/07 5:07 AM (CommentID #284127)
I like the Nokia 3310. Better than this phone, cos it has a black and white screen which this phone does not seem to have. Go for Nokia 3310.

By jess , 30/07/07 1:14 PM (CommentID #258158)
looks great! does anyone have any idea of what ptice it would be? and when is it out?
By Tom , 27/07/07 5:31 AM (CommentID #255379)
This phone looks amazing. My only worry is the keypad as i feel i might easily press 2 or 5.
either way i dont care this phone will be amazing. i have a k800i and i've been drooling over this for about 6 months now since i heard rumours about a 5MP camera-phone from SE.
I'll get this in October when my current contract ends.
By gio , 26/07/07 2:58 AM (CommentID #254325)
does any1 know when does it come out?
By JUNJUN , 26/07/07 1:42 AM (CommentID #254287)

By chris , 23/07/07 12:12 PM (CommentID #252099)
this phone is the top but i reacon getting the iphone or n95 because of the keypad of the k850
By zack , 16/07/07 7:52 PM (CommentID #246614)
Look awesome but is it worth buying?
By siopao , 12/07/07 5:30 PM (CommentID #241474)
i have sony erricson phones for the past 2 years (k750i, k800i, k810i and w880i)... all those phones except for the w880i gave me amazing pix... picture quality of the SE's are better than the nokia phones.
By smelly pants , 12/07/07 4:05 AM (CommentID #240580)
1st impressions dont like the look
but think you shud nvr judge a book by its cover
so hopefully looks can b deceiving in the k850i's case.
By novel , 07/07/07 2:30 AM (CommentID #234580)
don't like the keypad much...5 megapixel..not bad!
By Yasmin from ST LUCIA , 03/07/07 12:40 PM (CommentID #230364)
I think its a great phone and the mega pixel is very high for a phone... cant wait to get my hands on it
By mr.eims , 02/07/07 10:38 PM (CommentID #229627)
I like everything about this phone except the keypad (1st impression). But sometimes its just look not a realy good keypad but when you try to use it then you'll know for real.
Anyway..the performance and great functions does make me crazy for SE K series especially this one. I dont mind internal memory since its enough already, If you want more you still have choices of M2 & SD cards.
And nowadays I don't realy like expensive nokia phones.Their Camera, picture and sound quality won't be better Sony's technology.
By Mike , 26/06/07 6:39 PM (CommentID #222469)
Does anyone know if the spec of this machine will beet the spec of the K800i because from the comparison chart on the ericsson website the other had a better spec excluding the 5Mpixls. 65mb internal versus 40mb etc...

its ok but the keypad looks like ****
By George Nikatchev , 24/06/07 10:07 AM (CommentID #219222)
Looks awesome, maybe I should have waited instead of squeezing every nerve out of Vodafone to give me an N95
By col73 , 22/06/07 6:26 AM (CommentID #215965)
i cant wait when does it come out?
By Santosh , 18/06/07 9:29 AM (CommentID #210721)
Joe, look into the english lnguage, i'm sure you'll learn more sentences to say ... i think it looks cool
By Anonymous , 18/06/07 2:43 AM (CommentID #210346)
the keypad so damn small.. why SE why??
but i like that hsdpa tech and 5mp camera, i think that's the best innovation though. but ah, why? what happen with the small keypad, we don't like it very much........
By bob , 18/06/07 2:39 AM (CommentID #210344)
glad to see it has a xenon flash. if only it had the GPS function like Nokias N95. i'm stil going to get one anyway though when my current contract runs out
By Erodaland , 17/06/07 2:00 PM (CommentID #209787)
The keypad and the phone LOOK AMAZING CANT WAIT TO HAVE IT!
By Joe , 17/06/07 7:51 AM (CommentID #209361)
i think the keypad looks horible and spoiled the great looks of the handphone.If the keypad is like the W850i, it will be better and the handphone will surely be famous because of the looks quality, and features. thats all.
