there has not been any of the stability issues with the k800i that has bedevilled the k850i, it is considered generally reliable and easy to use.
![]() the main cons are: - a bit brick-like and heavier than most... although that is not necessariy a bad thing from a camera point of view, and also it's because it is metal-framed which makes it more sturdy and can survive physical abuse better than most - the camera lens cover slides open too easily, a lot of people have been taking pictures of the inside of their pocket ![]() - the joystick design of the K-series is notorious for being a dust trap... this can result in them sticking or not behaving and developing a mind of their own after a while - otherwise a great camera-oriented phone, and as it's on its way out, you can get it fairly cheap now, expect to pay no more than £70-80 on a locked PAYG |

Prefer my K800i to my Nokia N95, more robust as well. Never had any problems with it at all. Now and again use a bit of blue tac to get the dust from around the joystick so that has behaves superbly.
Wouldn't hesitate having another. |

As a phone it's pretty much dated and well past its sell-by date. But as a camera it's very good. It outperforms many of today's camera phones and this is a picture I took with mine.

![]() if the OP wants a sleeker look, he might consider the k810i which is like a redesigned version of the k800i, where they improved on the design of the camera lens cover and bump nice pic btw |

well it was released 2 years ago... admittedly that is a long time in mobile phone years.... do you mean 'dated' as in its design? because features and capability wise, i think it still holds its own

A great affordable camera phone. One of the last great phones Sony Ericsson made before they started churning out a load of duds like the K850i, W880i etc.
A bit chunky for my liking but all in all it is reliable, has a good camera and has all the features you would need. |
