In my humble opinion, touch sensitive buttons are not the way forward for any mobile phone. I've tried various phones with touch sensitive buttons and they always turn out to be a pain. I agree with other comments made that better video quality is expected from this type of phone, and a good quality tft screen. I'm not sure that I like the keypad on the K850. The buttons appear to be very small and would cause me problems typing text messages. The buttons on the nokia 6300 are just about right. Anything smaller that that and my big thumbs are always hitting 2 buttons at once. Come on SE sort out your buttons and your video quality.

    SAMSUNG G600 is a simple GSM phone. Forget HSDPA; this phpone doesn't have 3G Network capability. It doesn't have any special Bluetooth technology as it also supports A2DP Profile which Sony Ericsson included years before from W800i.

        The D-pad and number keys are nice on this phone but the touch sensitive buttons are terrible. You press up on the D pad and very often you also activate the central touch button. That ruins a good phone for me. I'm a big SE fan but I just wish they thought the design out better of such a high end phone

              The K850 does not have a touch screen as such, however it does have "touch sensitive" buttons below the screen (the white dots you can see) much like the LG Chocolate phone. Another cool feature is the fact that the menu will tilt when you rotate the phone.

                As you know the manufacture suggested retail price (MSRP) will not be available until Sony Ericsson actually release it to the publice. But dealers, distributor, wholesaler and importer always get their hands on them before the release date, so for that reason, the price around you hear $500-700 are set by them purposely to make a quick buck based on supply and demand situation. Most of the people assume Sony jacked up the price at first and quickly drop in value which is not true. Correct me if I'm wrong.

                              I work for a large mobile phone company and our Sony Ericsson rep paid us a visit recently. Lucky for us, he managed to grab a K850i and a W910i for us to see before he had to take them back at the end of the day. Both of these handsets are gorgeous and will be by far the top of the table for the fourth quarter of the year going strong into 2008. My personal favourite is the K850i. The camera looks brilliant, i personally can't see the difference compared to the N95. The screen is huge on both handsets and the touch sensitive screen on the K850i is easy to use and doesn't get in the way like most touch sensitive phones. Theres so much good to say about theses two handsets, especially the K850i but i'll leave it here. Safe to say i'll be getting mine when they are released in the next 4-5 weeks near the end of October!

                                    To the ghoul: I put "sony ericsson k895i" into google and I got all of 2 hits...both for this site! What makes things worse is its your own posts on other forums that the engine has homed in on!!!
                                    If you're trying to make friends, a simple "hello" normally does it:)

                                    Anyway, to calm any fears of why SE don't throw in things like 16M displays, GPS and WiFi, its because of the amount of power they consume. I think they realise that some of their customer's require a battery that can last more than a day!
                                    Now, as future technology and battery life progresses I'm sure they'll throw it all in, but until that stage, ya just gonna have to settle with their accessories!

                                    One curious thing I've noticed about the k850i; why give it an automated lens cover if the camera lens (and lens cover) is already behind a protective screen? ;)

                                      this sony is the best, camera, battery life, fuctions, reliablity. it walks all over the n95. the n95 has a 5 mp camera but only prints out at 2mp what use it that. and lasts half a day. sony knows what a phone is meant to look like and they are onto a winner.

                                        to the the person who said the k850 is crap! i think u need to get ur facts straight, the se k850 uses the same bluetooth technology as the samsung g600 which is v2.0 with a2dp so basically it should do the same operations as the g600, just thought id point that out!
