I Currently Own a D750i On The T-mobile u-fix tariff my friend is about to get a k750i on a Vodafone Pay Monthly Tarrif And I have Seen in many shop windows the w800i i would just like to tell everyone they are all the same and that the only difference is price and colour the w800i is the same as 2 great phones but has been unfortuneatley dipped in the uggly bowl

I think the main difference is that W800i comes with much more external memory - thus making it a better buy if you're looking for an immediate mp3 player - not sure if it has any enhanced Audio on it though!

the d750i and k750i can be flashed so to have the same firmware as the w800i.

I just rang for an upgrade, the w800i was only £30 more than the k750i and considering the extra memory costs roughly £50 I am well pleased.

I get mine tomorrow!!!!!!! woooo

Well, I'm surprised Orange didnt try to get first pick at this phone!

My phone will be safely kept inside its cover attached to my belt so atleast i dont have to stare at it all day.

I only got it over the k750i because of the larger sized memory card

Blue instead of orange would have been much nicer. I bet that they'll bring it out in new colours in the near future.

It's no secret that they are the same so your not smashing people's allusions CC. All the phone comapnies make clones of their phones now (see almost all Nokias).
Still, they are great phones.

the w800i has only one feature that would be worth it over the k750i cos u can buy the headphones seperately if u wanted them and a memory card is not so dear anyway.

and thats the flight mode (yes i know u can flash the k750i to w800i firmware but barring that)

would make a nice addition to my phone but i dont want to mess about with flashing the wrong firmwares etc etc

Otherwise its a god awful colour

I quote from stuff magazine website:' My initial impression of the first ever Walkman phone is that Sony Ericsson have taken a fantastic phone – the K750i – and dipped it in the Ugly Bowl. What comes out is a beige-and-orange monstrosity'

see i totally agree with cc dude ie i think its got good features its even a decent deal but the colour is shockingingly awful.

but at least we have the k750i to fall back to with the same features and a far better colour scheme.

Just buy k750 / d750 housing, this can be fitted to the w800i

All three phones are the same hardware wise, its just the firrwareand looks which makes the diffrence, The D750 is a K750 with the t-mobile branding and difrent housing, and the W800 is just the same as the D770 except the fimrware, you can flash the w800i firmware on the d750 and k750 and etc, you can also change the hosuing if you wanted too.
