One of the best phones I had used in years.
Its camera, and media player is very good. Somehow being capable of threatening the Walkman series

Beside all that, is a great telephone, practical, with great multimedia capacities.

SonyEricsson is amongst the best phone manufacturer in the world,not because it has the best phones,or the smartest ones,but because every phone they create is usefull and precisely intended for a specific class of buyers.Some will say that SE phones do a lot off things,but they don't do them very well(FALSE!!!)if you have a K-series SE you are certain that youre photos have an exceptional quality(FOR A MOBILE PHONE AND EVEN FOR SOME DIGI_CAMS),a W-series is created for listening music(IT DOES THE JOB PERFECTLY,I THINK IT CAN EASILY BE COMPARED TO I-POD,IT'S UP THERE),the T-series SE are multi purpose mobile phones,they do everything,but only at an acceptable stage,the main purpose is TALKING!!!,the Z-series are clamshell phones for ladies and school girls,the P-series are business executive phones,the rest of SE phones are not so important.This is my personal opinion and I own now a SE K850i,in the past I had had ALLMOST all the K-series(K500,K700,K510,K750,K550,K800),I had hundreds of phones,and I think that SE is the best.I bought my k850 after using NOKIA(n95 8g,6300,6500classic,5300),MOTOROLA(v3i,z8),SAMSUNG(D600,D900),LG(chokolatem,all shine),I-phone(beautifull but stupid)
BUY IT(REALLY GOOD AND SIMPLE PHONE)

khan, 24 Sep 2008Hi everybody...... I am new here.Actually Iam planning to b... moreno, don't get this phone, it's the worst and most problematic k series phone i ever had. all my previous k series phones worked fine except this particular model. have sent in thrice for repair during this 10-month of usage. in fact on the second day of my purchase, i already have to send it in for a one-to-one exchange due to the ringing problem, ie it doesn't produce any sound when it is ringing... next major problem is the lcd whereby the screen will go blackout whenever certain keys are pressed. having to stand under very strong sunlight or torchlight to see just a faint view of the screen.
as for the after-sale service, it sucks big time. my phone was scratched and i complained on the spot to the customer service when collecting my phone back from repair. but i was told that i scratched the phone myself! that's just simply ridiculous cos they have made very thorough check in front of me and made sure of the condition prior to repair and there wasn't any scratch at all...
simply put, don't buy this phone!

Am using K850i since last 6 months and there is a major display problem (no display at all) Phone works in background.Have given in authorised service centre but now it is more than 12 days. Am getting only one reply i.e. "pending for parts"
I didnot know Sony Ericsson has such 3rd grade after sales service. And to top it off no standby Handset was given.
Anyone thinking of going for any sony Ericsson products should be discouraged.

Please Please Please, Save yourself of all the trouble by not buying one of these. I have been using a K850i for 12 months now and my 4th replacement handset has just broken, again!
Nice features of the phone but generally runs slowl and crashes a lot and from my experience needs replacing with a new/replacement handset every 2-3months. All the problems were still occuring with this phone even after several firmware updates from sony ericcson's website.

so is ta... moreAccording to my knowledge K850 good more that N73. When your using a phone in "K" series you cant get good sound quility but you can get photos nicely more than a digital camera. If you want to listen music you have to ger a sony ericssin "W" Series.
Thanks
