hmm i have had the phone for about a month now, and..I LOVE THIS PHONE, and i think if you don't care about EDGE, this phone is better than w810i because it has more internal memory & has a lens cover..
although i have experience a problem (like the song i just transfered using D2P is gone) but after you read the manual well, and just separate it from the USB after you close the application, & click the safely remove hardware...then the song will never gone again...trust me, this phone is good.

            To John

            Well John, you dont even have to ask us which one to choose between W800 and W810 in the first place rite? coz you dont have enough money, why would you bother to ask about our opinion?? W810 will cost you more for sure so its up to you.

                    One thing i can assure, the price u gonna pay for the phone is well worth it. 2mp wif 512mb bundled MSPD, and not to mention the cool design wif funky colour (not every1 like it thou). wat else could u ask for?

                    the only errors i encounter so far was:-

                    1) songs go missing when transferred to ur mspd (however its fixed if u update the firmware) *problem solved*

                    2) the camera sux under yellowish light condition. however it works extremely great under sufficient sunlight!

                    3) yep, it does corrupt the MSPD. But mostly it is due to the faulty MSPD... go get sony original MSPD.

                    4)Stains are easily visible, have to constantly clean it. The metallic keypad are easily scratched.

                      I was so impressed with this phone when I first got it three weeks ago, that was very short lived and im stuck in contract with a stinker of a phone, why did they release this when there is so many possible errors and things that got wrong.

                      heres what happened to me

                      Week one
                      Ordered with Orange on website with half price for 6 months
                      receoved phone and was buzzin took it to work with me and 2 of my friends signed up on the same deal
                      Fried memory card ordered replacement
                      Recieved replacement showing as 25mb
                      sent back recvd 3rd memory card which wouldnt be picked up by the phone.
                      Sent new phone orange being helpful as I was still in my cancelation time (14 days)

                      Week Two
                      Recieved my second SE and a nasty letter saying if I didnt return the other I would be billed £245
                      joystick broke orange said its normal
                      Disk 2 phone software cannot transfer files and does not recognise the phone - Updated Firmware and software,same problems persist
                      dust under screen

                      Week Three
                      Headset stops working and you have to mess about with it for ages to get sound
                      All my photos dissapeared into to thin air
                      Flash stopped working
                      Rang orange to be told nothing they can do as I had passed my 14 day cancellation period and the phone has only minor faults!!.
                      Ordered Nokia 6280 on Three, no problems as yet use my w800i as a second line but put the 512mb card in my 6280.

                      one of my friends has more or less the same trouble as me, my other friend has had no problems as yet and is happy however it is only 3 weeks so I guess theres still time!
                      I am one very dissatisfied SE customer, i loved this phone but I have never regretted buying a product so much in my life ... gutted!

                          hey john i Think you should buy this phone because its like the same than w810 and if u dont use edge this phone is better beacuse it has more internal memory, and you can close the camera lens (what is realy important)
                          well I think this phone is better than the w810

                                Its obvious that the people who are giving this phone praise have not hit any errors.
                                Trust me the day you turn your new w800i on and find the memory card has been fried or all your songs have dissapeared then youll soon remember what about 40+ people have said on here!

                                WE TOLD YOU SO!!!
