I had the K750i an like the phone but the only thing i found a bit of a draw back was the Joystick ,why doesn"t Sony Ericsson change the joystick to something easier to use like just pressing a button,dust easily got round the Joystick on the K750i an the K800 seems to have the same Joystick an i am sure it will put people off who had the K750i getting the K800,i didn"t wait for it to be released an got the Nokia N80 instead

        eh tarantula, if the NOKIA's CZ trademark is true, well i think still no good job for them, the carl zeiss lens from NOKIA's trademark will not be as good as the carl-zeiss in SONY handycam, and cybershot, why?, SONY fans are not blind, they know sony technologies and they will not buy NOKIA because of that lens only,,, if we look at the design, cybershot and handycams have better design,,, and K800 is a cybershot like digital camera on the back front and n90 is the only handycam/digicam like nokia phone, this is one of the reasons why SE become popular with dual front phones: k750,k700,w800 and many dual front phones, that's the result of the opinion here in philippines, many FILIPINOs switch now to SE after their NOKIA 6680,6600 and earlier NOKIAs, the nokia here s popular because they believe it's interface is user-friendly so they dont want any other phones but when they tested other brands, the realize the missing functions in their previous NOKIAs,,, thats what i have observed here in my location,,,

          SE will prodcuce a handycam phone? well if thats true, goodbye to N93 video, SONY DVD handycam is the best camcorder today and the rating is better than canon, JVC, samsung and others according to my own research, and really, is CZ powered, but bundled with some advance technologies such as SONY's Enhanced CMOS sensor(which makes clearer images and far better than CCD(charged coupled device) HAD(hole accumulated diode) sensor), anti-bluring system,it's very own high quality DVD recorder and many more. just what i am saying, lens is no use without some technologies, example in CANON it's lens will not be very good without DIGIC image processor/stabilizer... same with cybershot and handycam,,,

            People, who cares whether SE has or don't have Carl Zeises Lens. Study done by SE shows that most people barely use their camera on their cell-phone daily. People are mostly interested in high quality display, reception, and a longer battery life.

              @M.K.: can you elaborate your frustration with SE's stick a bit further? it sux because it wears off easily? is it too small/big for your fingers? it slips? or...?

                ¿¿Why nokia choose carl zeiss?? obvious, becuase CZ is famous by Sony cyber-shot and handycam series! For sure this strategy will attract more users and cyber-shot/handycam fans to nokia camera phones, its clear!
                carl zeiss (sonnar, tessar) are inferior to leica (summicron, elmarit) and scheneider lenses, and SE in the next cyber-shot camera phone will take a special and branded lenses for it, but ¿what lens tradermark SE will choose? ¿a cyber-shot camera phone with leica lenses? ¿or with schneider lenses?
                For me the next SE cyber-shot model will surpass anyone camera phone in the market including nokia CZ powered, and SE will take more tech from cyber-shot, probably with mobile CCD sensor with HAD tech... ¿Why not?
                Samsung has a Z710 3,2MP with pentax CCD sensor but is inferior to K800 in picture quality... and remember S700 with 1,3MP CCD sensor.
                I think, K800 is the best camera phone in the market because quality/features/price ratio. nokia N93 will be really expensive and it will not be a competence to K800, but is inevitable compare both phones because the camera specs are similar. To the people who says that carl zeiss is the best, is because are nokia fans... And I wait for the SE handycam soon!!

                  it's not that se it's not good, or nokia is better, i think it's all a matter of taste......i'm a nokia lover...but i must admit that k800i it's a great phone...it's look good for a guy...i think is a men phone. but...i'll buy next week a nokia n70 and, i hope i'll be pleased. se and nokia are for me the best brands. thank for reading my oppinion

                      if you be like me,you should hold for the birth of k800 in the market.i just been using k750 for photography,down load and do the same with canon A520,nikon E4100.if you compare,no need to have all the cameras.just have the phone.that time it is 2M.imagine the K800 with 3.2m,image stabiliser not to mention all that is in the specs.
                      i have been a fun of nokia since 1999,but sory, good buy i belong to SE,come shine or the others.

                        its really sad to see that there are a lot of other brand fanboys who diss SE just because its SE.

                        Zeiss is not the best lens in the world, its not even close ... and that's a fact. doing a lil research helps a lot. Yes, Canon and Olympus can easily beat the Zeiss quality. and yes, using the lens on a CMOS equipped mobile phone with slim picture quality enhancement features will mean nothing. the lens doesn't dictate the overall quality, afterall, its just a "lens". but if you're a fan of Nokia, regardless of what lens it uses, you guys will consider that lens to be the best ... right? not only that, you will think that the picture quality will automatically be the best compared to other phones ... its sad really

                        as for the phone's looks, yes, i'm have mixed emotion on how this one looks. it ain't all that attractive

                          carl zeiss is nothing without image stabilizer, anti-blur system, and many SONY technologies. and CARL ZEISS is not the best lens,,,

                              Carl Zeiss lenses is only advertising, a microscope isnt the same as a digital camera. Remember the situation between N90 and K750, the N90 carl zeiss "powered" lose in almost all aspects. ¿¿¿Who won the battle??? Obviously K750.
                              And Carl Zeiss isnt the best lenses in photographic terms. Leica, Schneider, Canon, Olympus make better lenses than Carl Zeiss for professional photography.
                              Carl Zeiss make lens for microscopes, but Leica make lenses for microscopes too, and lenses for geology study (teodolites)and others. Schneider make the greatest zooms for professional TV cameras. Canon and Olympus make your lenses for they own camera requirements. And Carl Zeiss be famous thanks to Sony with Cyber-shot line, with Sony tech (HAD, super HAD) cyber-shot cameras takes great pictures with help of CZ lenses.

                              Conclussion: Carl Zeiss is only advertising. For now the camera phones is in the medium quality and are comparabable to an average DSC, in this area the lens factor (trademark, type) arent important for the result.

                                  To people who don't know. Carl Zeiss is a German lens. It's not a Japanese lens and it does not belong to SONY.

                                    CARL ZEISS lens does NOT belong to SONY. Sony just use it in the their camera but its not theirs.

                                      Well for me carl zeiss lens is nothing but a market strategy to attract imaging enthusiast, same with cybershot. but remember that the carl zeiss lens is from sony corporation. and nokia just adapted their lens to make best camera phones. sonyericsson is a great fool if they will not put that lens on a mobile phone if it proves to be really good. they didnt put that expensive lens coz it's nothing but a lens, the same CMOS sensor is still there. so its no use puting that in n93/n90/n73. and remember that carl zeiss lens in sony didnt make it to be the best cameras so, they have to make anti-blur system, image stabilizer xenon flash and other cybershot features in their cameras to support perfect imaging capabilities. sub features in k800 such as those i mentioned cannot outcomed by that only lens.
