I would go for the W810i myself personally because I've seen the W850i and its slightly bulky because of it being a 3g Phone.

Definitely the W850i, the W810i is very old now, and nothing special.
Size wise, they're pretty much the same. |

The W810i might be older but from the reviews I've read the camera is better than the one that comes with the W850i, and it says its slightly smaller and trimmer aswell, another good Walkman Phone I'm considering myself is the W710i that has some promising feautures.

I've heard the W810i has better sound quality than the W850i.

I had the K750i (built on a similar chassis to the w810i) and the sound quality wasn't half as good as the W850i.
Oh, and the screen's smaller, but, the camera does have autofocus, whereas the W850i doesn't. |

At The moment I've got the worst Sony Ericsson Walkman phone the W300i, the camera quality on it is like taking a pic with a camera from the 80's can't wait to get the W710i.

W850i has better camera quality, bigger screen, louder clearer sound, louder loudspeaker and more 3G features that W810i doesn't have. Plus it's a slide phone and some packages come with a 1gb memory card compared to 512meg with the W810i. On the downside it's slightly bulkier.

I've tested both and found although that W810i has autofocus and W850i doesn't the colours registered better on W850i but this was only indoors.

I agree. I have this phone as well, and its terrible. I used to have the K750i and the difference between them is amazing. |

I think the sound quality is affected by the firmware version on the phone. I have a K750i with firmware R1DB001 and my mate's phone has R1AC021 and their music is ever so slightly louder and a little clearer.

I have the W850 and to be honest the camera is not very good. Unless you are getting a good deal with either of these phones i would hold out for the W880 which is out very soon.

I have the W850i, and i have to say i think i preferred my old W800i, i think it looked better, had a nicer feel, the camera had a zoom on it and autofocus. The situation with the memory is easy to recitify £6 on ebay for a 1GB stick.
As for the 3g features, mobile TV is crap, video calling is fun, but costly and only a few people have it, and even if they do have to be in a 3G area. Other than that not much difference. Apart from some better games. Also, has anyone who owns the w850i noticed a crack on the bottom joypad button, up to the play and stop button, very small but i think im going to keep an eye on it, might get some insurance just in case. |

just been playing with the W610i.
if you think the 3g functionality of the W850i makes it bulky check this one out!! My suggestion therefore is to wait a bit and see what's coming out in the near future........ |
