I'm think I'm going to get this phone, but I'd like it to be a camera as well, is the camera good enough for a desktop background? Ifyou have the phone, could you PM me and send it to my email whoch ill give u in the reply to the PM.

Also, can someone who OWNS the phone tell me whats in the box? Ive looked on the internet, but they all say different.

Thanks in advance

I have that phone

The pictures are to big to fit on a 17 inch monitor (As in you have to scroll left/right, up/down to see it all). They are brillant for backgrounds

In the box you get:

Phone
64MB memory card
Headphones
Info pack
Charger
Memory card adaptor
CD with SE Software

I would suggest buying a pair of the headphones that you get with the W810i - They are much better + only about £10.

Go for it...you'll love it. It is a good music player if you set all the EQ settings to the top as well.

P.S What did you want me us send to you anyway?

Hello Mitch this is a picture I took on my old K750i.

Edit: Here is another example.

Its only 2 megapixal but you can take good shots with it.

I also have the K750i which I've had since late August.

The camera is very good 2.0 mega pixels is high enough for great looking desktops and more.

Tis also very good for MP3(4) and not too bad for watching films/TV shows on (which need to be downloaded or converted). Playing games on it is a joy as well. The joystick is very responsive and the games run well.

I love my K750i and would buy one again in a heartbeat if needed to.

Here's a pick of my cat Tigger I took with the K750i: here
and one of my folks back garden here

It's a great phone, but if you're getting it make sure you'll be using all the features. I bought one thinking I'd be using the camera/video/music all the time, which I found I don't use much at all. I use my old Nokia 3310 quite a lot instead of the K750i.

The only downside to the K750i is the joystick issue and dirt getting under it, it's a top camera phone in every other respect.

For a 2 mega pixel camera it does a great job, I've been using the macro mode recently and found it takes immense pictures. I use my camera every other day.

If you want to see sample images look no further than Flickr's camera finder found Here

Had...well still got the K750i and it is a great phone but if you can afford it go for the K800i if you want a good quality camera. It blows the 750's away as its 3.2mp pluss the 800 has a proper flash. I don't use my digital camera anymore as the 800's photos are that good.

The 750's can be a bit grainy on a big screen bit the 800's are sharp.

The K800i is a tad more expensive then a £99 K750i though. So, for the money you get an excellent camera/phone/mp3 player.

Had one and absolutely hated it.

When you put it on a hard surface it spins on the lens cover. Sounds a minor problem but it irritates all the same.

While the camera takes an excellent photo, it is seriously let down by the joystick which is sharp (digs in you thumb) and lets in the dirt.

The headphone connector also cut out sound from time to time.

Eventually got rid of it and opted for a Samsung instead.

Not that good for nighttime shots though. I took mine to Mitchell and Webb, and the results weren't that good.

I don't think many phones are. Maybe the k800i is better. I normally just use a proper digital camera for that.

The 800 is better but it is still just a phone with a camera included and the flash isn't as powerfull as a digital cameras would be. But for portrait shots the flash is ideal in low light. The 750 relies on a LED for a flash, but is also doubles as a handy torch in the dark, something the 800 lacks(and I miss ).

That'll be a branded Vodophone then (the one shown is unbranded) but as everyone knows that Vodaphone brand all their phones and then put their own horrible software on them.

Better to find any other network and pay higher than get a cheaper one with Vodaphone I say.

You can buy a separate flash for about £20 which is supposed to be very good if you require better night-time photos.

You could of bought a crystal plastic case for it (costs as little as £3 off ebay) which not only protects the phone but would stop it spinning on the lens protector.

The joystick isn't at all that sharp - well mine isn't but I see your point as my daughters' and mother's phones are somewhat sharper.

The sound cutting out sounds like (no pun intended) a loose or dirty connector to me. Mine doesn't do that.

For the price the K750i is still one hell of a phone.

The flash on my k750 is quite good really. Not a bad torch light either.

I also have the k800i and I would recommend it, it is a bit more expensive but the difference between the two phones are miles apart, on the k800i the camera is loads better (in fact I have a proper 3mp camera with 8x optical zoom and the k800i blows that out of the water by a long shot.

k800i = ten
k750i = zero lol

I will probably buy the K800i when it's about £99 as it does look good.
