Sony Ericsson K800i

By Jeremy Roche on 04 August 2006

The best camera phone of 2006 so far, the Sony Ericsson K800i outshines all others in term of features and user-friendly design. Aside from a few squabbles with the extra bulk, the K800i makes it easy for first-time 3G users and is an ideal companion for anyone wanting to take happy-snaps on-the-go.

  This is almost a perfect mobile, except maybe for the joystick and size. Also it can support 4 GB M2 CARD (not as they say 2 GB).Very user friendly easy to connect and transfer data to PC and other mobiles - especially from SE (pics, videos and most important - the Phonebook transfer is VERY easy). I think that the C905 are slower and weirder and K800i is the for now the masterpiece of SE. aNYONE KNOW WHY ITS PRODUCTION WAS DISCONTINUED IN 2006???

  • Good: all features
  • Bad: size and weight

  This was the second phone i have ever had, and in my oppinion one of the best phones i have ever seen. Great camera, all for a good price.
  Everyone who is whinging about the size: we get it, its a little chunky.
  But its a good thing, this phone is a beast
  10/10.

  • Good: Camera, OS, Menu, Shortcut Functions, Main Menu, Speakers, Music Quality, Size
  • Bad: Nothing i can think of....

  I really enjoy this phone. It works well for everything I need. Photos turn out great and are really clear when I upload them onto my PC. I know it's getting old now, but I still highly recommend it.

  • Good: pretty much everything
  • Bad: toggle can be a bit loose and menu is occasionally sluggish, a little bulky for the pocket, but ino prob for a bag

  It's overall a really good phone.
  It's good for any average phone users. Price is fair enough and the camera takes great pictures.
  
  But I would definitely give this phone up in exchange for a Nokia E71.

  • Good: Good camera, great downloadable games and apps, nice features, calls and texts are good.
  • Bad: Kinda bulky/chunky, speaker call isn't really loud, 3G is ok but wi-fi could have been better.

  A good camera phone if you want to take good photos for an affordable price. I enjoy it very much!

  • Good: Lots of
  • Bad: Memory max 2GB, slow camera, bad video quality, I dont like SE's OS for phones

  Brilliant phone. Don't worry about the bulkyness of it because it is not a problem, i've not heard one complaint about the thickness yet and i've had it nearly two years. Easy internet access. I'm always on facebook with mine. Easy texting and access to music/photo files. Top phone.

  • Good: EVERYTHING
  • Bad: NOTHING
