Regards the person asking about o2 not having them in, I work for o2 and we are getting a lot of hassle off customers because of this. We have no control over it, its a great phone and in my shop in Edinburgh, they were all snapped up in 1 day, plus it takes us longer to get them rather than say, the link and phones for u, cos ours would be exclusive 2 our network and the settings need done before they are shipped out

This phone, sounds really good it originally costs £399.99 in the UK without any tariff contratcs. My brother is meant to be getting it for me but i can't wait and am getting impatient. By the way can anyone tell me the difference between W800 and W800i

Q:3- there's NO stop music only Puase
sometimes i need to hear it from the
begening ,i had to go for other track &
come back again .
A:(im sure there is look in the manual, i cant really help you with that because i actually havnt got the phone yet, still waiting)
--------------------------------------->>
Q:4- i can't assign music for my Messeges only
the music they selected .
A:1: MENU - FILE MANAGER - SOUNDS - TONE (scroll to the tone you want) - MORE - USE AS - MESSAGE ALERT
2: MENU - SETTINGS - SOUNDS AND ALERTS - MESSAGE ALERT - scroll to the very last alert then select - REPLACE
----------------------------------------->>
Q: 1- i thought "Walkman" can let me sort my
music by my own ,not by (artists..ect.)
A: Once again i cannot answer this, if u would like to sort music you shoud just be able to create a folders ie "playlist 1 - rock".
----------------------------------------->>
Q: 6- can't use "Mega Bass" without the headset.
A: Do you mean u cannot use mega bass with the headphones SE has supplied you with? If so have you actually tried using a totally different earphones. and actually applied a proper "headset".
*once again i cannot answer these questions accuratly, im based my answers from my k700, hopfully w800 will come in tomorow :D *
& No worries Nawaf, glad i helped :D

Hi all,
W800i has a real good camera and loads of good features...I can definately recommend w800i better than P910i, N90 and K 750i. I have used all the handsets and probably w800i seems to last longer with me than any other handset.

Q: 5- it'll be cool that there's a fast button
for the light to turn ON/OFF easly i had
to go from the menu to turn it ON/OFF .
A: The way i do it, i press the camera function, opens camera, then i press the shortcut button thats (5) Light goes on and Off
Q: 2- there's no function that let you rewind
or forword my track .
A:
Yes there is - when listening to a song hold the joystick to the RIGHT ( this will FastForward ) , To Rewind hold the joystick to the LEFT
Note: these functions were not tried with the W800, this was tried with the K700
(hence im waiting for my arrival of the w800 . this week woo! )

Have had the W800i for almost a week and its even better than expected. Battery life is great and mp3 player is fantastic - now I no longer miss any calls even when I'm listening to music! Only bad point is the white colour (originally thought it was a silvery white) which is a bit plasticky and scratches/gets dirty rather easily

First of all the Nokia N90 boasts the best screen ever in a mobile phone. Sharp only use 320x240. This screen is still used in the Sharp 903. I agree that the Sony Ericsson S700i is the best 1.3mp camera phone in terms of picture quality. However when people start saying the N90 is worse than the W800 in terms of features they are mistaken. I see that some people may not want to buy the N90 because of the size, this is a valid reason. But when people say the W800 has more features it is them who are been biased. Some of you Sony Ericsson fans always say Nokia fans shop by brand and not by product but you are doing the same. If anyone was to madmouth Sony Ericsson like I am doing you all like to retaliate. Just like I am doing to some of the comments made.

Sonners there r some people like u who r brand ambaseddors. They only praise brands not products. No doubt Nokia is the largest producer of handsets. But surly not the best handset makers. My dear wake up and see the truth. Nokia is ages behind in display from Sharp. And from Sonyericsson in camrera. I am not telling that they don't product good handsets. SE S700 is still the best 1.3 camera phone with Samsung D500 & Sharp GX30. Few years before Nokia lead the market with just candybars but now they r also think ing of some innovation. I don't hate Nokia as i hav 2 Nokia phones and they r not bad at all. But in SE W800 & Nokia N90. SE W800 is better. Try to see the products not brand.

The thing that annoys me about sony ericsson, is that most of their new stuff is just double ups. IE: w600 and w550, k750 & w800, s700i & s710 & s600, k500 & k508 & j300, z800 & v800, and the list goes on. Sony ericsson are becoming the new nokia - in other words, they are slack. Instead of creating new phones, they are getting old phones, putting in a better camera or more memory or whatever, to try to make it seem like a new phone. Its like when a band releases an album, then adds a new song and re-releases the album. You are better off waiting until there are no more re-inventions, or until there is something better, otherwise ur just being taken for a ride.

hey sonners.. i am a SE fans, but i do not actually hate N90. In fact i really confess that nokia produce a very good phone like N90. Just to let you know, some people just want their phone to be small. I got this bad experience with a very bulky phone 2 years a go, and since then i really look for those phone which is compact and small. So, i will buy nokia only if they are capable to produce a very good phone with the size of no more than 102X44X20. So far, i do not see any nokia phone that has a feature like W800 or better within such a size.
