    The Battery is the best...

      @ Batista The Animal

      n95 definitely takes better pics than k850 (and videos), but battery life is shockingly poor and no Xenon flash. K850 is VERY unreliable IMO as I've been through 3 in less than 5 months - and I look after my phones very well.

        Sorry, but I have to agree on the n95 battery life, my gf has one and it is absolutely shocking. Back to the K850i, worst phone I have ever owned. Bought it last October and I am now on my THIRD handset, O2 have finally agreed to exchange for another model, admitting that the phone has known faults. I was previously a big fan of SE phones (mainly coz of the great battery life), but this experience has def put me off. Now looking for a suitable contender to replace my K850i - and it certainly won't be an n95!

          IN fact there has been a release of N95 with very short battery life... I used it for a couple of months and then thrown it away.. Now I'm back to my old P990i and willing to get a K850..

              Hi I'm planning to buy a 5.0MP camera phone so K850i took my attention. But it has no symbian support so how do you manage to fulfill this insufficiency? As far as I'm concerned Symbian OS is essential for applications & games. I cant also use the symbian opera in it. So how efficient the phone browser is? Can I download files of any extension like the symbian opera does? Is Carl Zeiss Optic lens like that of the Nokia N82 or N95 is better than that of the K850i? Please let me know. Thanks

                  you must be Lucky then.

                  anyway my cousin is getting a Samsung G600 now.

                  he didnt like the K850i that much.

                  i might be getting K850i though. depends what my Network offer

                    i just got the SE K850i.
                    i really like the phone,
                    it has all the functionality
                    that i required. however, 2 days
                    ago the phone stopped saving the
                    photo's it took, everything runs
                    as per normal when taking a photo
                    but the photo doesnt get saved.
                    i have already tried to do a master
                    reset in attempt to rectify this
                    problem assuming it might have been
                    a settings issue, but no luck.
                    anybody with suggestions?
                    has anybody else had this predicament?

                        he had problems with the 3 Touchscreen buttons they never worked, he couldnt upgrade the firmware becuase he got it on a contract with a company o2.

                                  I had the K800i and upgraded to this one - glad i did as i'm really impressed with the phone, camera is really good (compared to K800i), liked the touchscreen buttons and
                                  the motion sensor. Slightly difficult to text as the buttons are alot smaller than the K800i ones but you get used it. Didn't come with any games (only DEMOs), was a bit gutted as i heard there was one like a pinball/maze game which uses the phones motion sensor thingy - still no luck in finding this on the Net - any ideas !? Battery life is good aswell !

                                      mr Nick is probably not aware of the fact that Se and Nokia have the SAME resolutions ,only the number of colors is more in Nokia(as if that matters)So please get your facts right before speaking out pointlessly!!!

                                        Nokia batteries-High capacity????
                                        wtf r u talkin bout?
                                        ok,we wont take k850i/n95 in dis case...
                                        take 2mp cam fones, one nokia 3250, one SE k750i.

                                        3250 dusn hav wi-fi or gps, still it has a sh*t batry lyf! u call dat high capacity?
                                        in fact, k750 does MORE dan d 3250 coz it has got a flash, autofocus,flash themes, 38mb internal memory...
                                        still, k750i's batry life is 3 TIMES betr dan 3250. and 3250 is more expensive!
                                        now, dats bullsh*t.

                                        look at g900, SE hav included wi-fi, d batry life went UP dan other SE fones, instead of goin down coz of wi-fi!!!
                                        its 12h talk time!

                                        i guess d 3.5mm jack eats up nokia fones' batry!!!

                                        jus accept it, nokia gives sh*t batteries.

                                        SE is betr dan Nokia in CAM, MUSIC, OPERATING, BATTERY, well, EVERYTHNG!

                                        SE 4 lyf!!!
