nokia phones bigger
sony ericsson phones smaller
nokia phones have more feature, but not emphasizing in quality of each feature
sony ericsson phones have less feature, but each feature's quality are assured.
nokia phones have more variety of design, sometimes a bit off and does not even seems like a phone.
sony ericsson phones are more conventional and basic and more like combining two different gadget, between mobile phones and digital camera.
nokia has a better market
sony ericsson produce a better phone and more advance in technology (too far maybe... especially in japan, in 2003 they already produce 1,3 mega pixel camera phone: SO 505i in www.mobilburn.com, which is far too advance to be compared to nokia. Maybe the only reason why they do not want to destroy the market since they will surely be the best in the market and not going to be beaten for at least 2 years)

Finally got my W800i couple of days ago. Having used a nokia (symbian) for a long time, there are few sections i feel the W800i fall short. although i can not compare directly between a phone and smartphone, but i expected the w800i to perform better. becoz im only having it for couple days, there are many areas on this phone i havent fully discover yet. But one thing i found "not-so-good" is the profiles. Unlike Nokias, you cannot set different ringtone and msg tone for each profile, meaning changing the ringtone in one profile affected another. the profile in w800i is merely for u to change the vol. setting quickly.
The Disc2Phone software is as good as useless.Renaming the file u transfered is not possible, which is very inconvinient. The second thing i do not like about the software is, it created few folders for one artist (like the iTunes - very inconvinient). Artist folder, follow by the album and then only the song file appear. i prefer fast access to the song, without those folders. What i did was i transferred my songs directly into the Mp3 folder of the memory card. By doin this, you are unable to view ur songs under the category "Artist" in your phone. An error message is prompt because u did not use the provided software to transfer the songs.
the playlist is not too good either. if u want to create ur own playlist, u have to add the song ONE BY ONE! there is no "mark all" option. the filename does not appear like the way u named it during transfer.
say, i named my song: Avril Lavigne - Complicated. Under "Tracks", it only appear as Complicated. Ok fine with that. But some other songs, u named using the same format, Artist - Song Title, it appears correctly. i dont understand why, but i suspect it is because of the ID3 tag of the song.it is better if i can have all my songs displaying "correctly", and when i sort it by filename, it will follows alphabetical order.
Anyone here found a solution to these "problems" im facing?

just simply get a memory card reader... if you want to place songs into a phone.. transfering by bluetooth or else by data cable still takes some time... I still enjoy the k750 more. design is more sleek to me with the slide out for the camera makes me feel just like I own a ipod since it has playlists. So does this one.

Hi, I really liked the specifications of the phone- but I hate color and the design. V3 is cool! Should I wait for V3x or get this one now? I love listening and I'll use camera but not sure of the design. Is it worth to wait for v3x?

Rune,
Yes, the SE P910i is amazing. It is very, Very, VERY stable.
The Sony photo quality is better.
The screen resolution is amazing.
The Sony sound is the best.
The Sony memory system is flawless.
The Sony Tech. Support works.
The Sony setup of a phone is painless--as are updates.
The call quality is negligible.
The menu system in the P910i is too easy.
The menu system in the W800i is very, very good.
Oh, by-the-way, the blue tooth chipsets all made by Ericsson.
So, what exactly are you getting in a Nokia for your 1,000?

Purchased the Sony W800i from a USA Sony Dealer--USA model.
I experienced these problems:
> Every 12 hrs., and/or when the SIM card is removed, the phone displays a page that says that the SMS services must be configured.
* I called to Sony Tech Sup. They said it should not do this--as SMS does not require config. and all that is required is the service #.
> Keeps disconnecting from the Sony HBH-300 Bluetooth Headset. (USA Model)
> Phone shows connection to Sony Bluetooth Headset--but the call does not come through to headset all the time.
> When sound is transfered from Sony Headset to Handset and then back, the sound is then like in a tunnel.
> Will not work with Motorola Headset 850.
! The Tech. Rep.--at Sony--said that not all Sony W800i phones will have the same firmware--and that only the ones sold directly from Sony are correct. OMG!
He said to return it, and get one directly from Sony. Well, I did purchase it from a company that allows 30 day risk free trial with not fee.
Good News:
SonyStyle Tech. Sup. answered on the second ring--and were very polite.
