Baloch, 30 Dec 2009I am a great fan of SE, but have faced some problems like: ... moreBaloch,

I understand how you feel about the phone and good on you that you have it replaced. But just in case you come accross with a phone with the same camera/light feature, take note that not because it has a flash it could be used as it is.

K850 has a good camera settings actually -ISO adjustment, Panorama shots, Adjustable pix-file size from VGA to 5MP, Lense Focus -not bad for a mobile phone ya?

I take pictures with my telescopic Nikon digital camera and K850 has somehow has the same principle on taking pictures. It's just a matter of learning more about your phone. The sad part is different users explore their phone according to their interests. I hope you agree...

    Carnifisis, 07 Jan 2010I want to buy this cellphone, but i had never used it, coul... moreYou are intending to purchase a phone that is a couple of years back. I reccommend that you don't expect much, on the other hand I appreciate the following points;

    1.Accelerometer -for pix/video viewing and some games.
    2.Clear display -256k
    3.Reasonable camera -sharper than usual
    4.Good lighting -handy bright torch
    5.FM radio -for boring moments

    The rest is for you to find out on how you use your standard phone. I am looking into the Xperia as upgrade but I'll take my time and read more feedback, but I know eventually I'll have one of those for it I find it usefull on my eXplod car stereo -handsfree when driving!

            My LCD has died once before last year (3 months after I got it)and had to get it fixed, luckily it was under warranty. This time it died just before Xmas and i just ordered a Nexus 1 to replace my K850. I'd suggest you buy a new phone cos the LCD will keep dying.

                  I like SE but its very risk safe your personal data like photo sms etc. It has no privacy controlling system. I had to change my lovely K850i and SE only for Privacy.
                  We need Password auto lock system like iPhone or samsung or motorolla or NOKIA!

                                  kinda hard to take pictures on dark places or twilight places its either you'l get a total dark picture or too bright picture but most of the time its a black blind picture maybe the lens ISO is too crappy on adjusting. but great phone its very luxurious compare to N82 looks like a bar of soap and full of ugly plastic. and the size is much smaller that N82. and by the way who needs GPS and WLAN on N82 it very slow it would take 1000 years before you can open a webpage its sucks!

                                    The Best Camera Phone I had and the most expensive phone that I've bought, I had it for 2 years now broke several times but still, the best. Took several great shots with it and never failed to capture the moments whenever I forgot to bring my digicam. Unfortunately it broke last month.... I cant upd8 it coz it says battery low when I upd8 it and I cant charge it because the firmware is broken...

                                        I am a great fan of SE, but have faced some problems like:

                                        1) Sometimes it restarts itself while you are using it. (Very rare infact).

                                        2) When Xeone flash is ON, it takes either blind pic or may have an extra bright pic. Thats a major problem with it. Without flash its result is perfect. Great quality.

                                        3) It doesn't support live streaming. You can't play UTUBE on it. (Officially confirmed from UTUBE website).

                                        4) Its by default Internet Browser is not great. Better use Opera Mini 5 Beta for GPRS/EDGE/3G etc.

                                        5) Buttons are too hard to press. Not good for you if you are SMS lover.

                                        6) People complain about its touch sensors. I myself had to replace them after 18 months of use. (But easily available in market).

                                        EVERY THING ABOVE IS WHAT I HAVE EXPERIENCED.
