      Just out of curiosity,my 850 doesn't support a 2 Gb card,while it seems some friends here are using 4 Gb cards! How is that? I tried a 2Gb Sony card and it just didn't work, I urrently use a 1Gb card .I'd be grateful if anybody tells me if W550 supports a memory card more than 1 Gb.

        At first I loved it's look.It's so far the most userfriendly music player phone I've ever seen.I just threw away my mp3player.the camera is more than enough for me.Picture quality is great at day light.At night it's as bad as N95 with 5 Mpxls!I've actually compared them. So I have no complaint.I myself think it's the most eyecatching phone made by SE so far.I love its Slide.A great choise for a very reasonable price.

          This is a pretty good phone. good camera, nice screen, easy to use, EXCELLENT MP3 PLAYER, SOFTWARE AND PLAYBACK QUALITY! However it does have its problems. Mine had the keypad cracking problem (cracks appering on the 4-directional keypad) which is really irritating because although it doesnt really affect the use of the phone, it just doesnt look good, especially as this wasnt exactly a cheap phone. The number and texting keys were a bit uncomfortable to use, although not as bad as some other phones out there. It was slow at writing text messages, i think down to the keypad rather than the software. The camera performance was limited (no zoom in normal mode, photolight, well, practically useless, i can see why they are not adding photolights to the new walkman series phones). And if you are going to go for one of these get the black one, the white one looks hideous somehow. However i still think this is a good phone because its music is good and you can get some good pictures (in the right lighting) from the camera. Just thought i would mention this though. Ive just brought a k800i as a replacement to this phone. Ok, music playback is not as loud when using the included earphones in it. However, i decided to plug the old ones i had from my w850 into it, and to my amazement the music playback was exactly the same! Seems its the walkman headphones (hpm70, hpm82) that make the real difference in playback quality rather than the phones output. Ok so theres no mega bass on k800 and also the user interface of the music player on the w850 is miles ahead of that on the k800i. And battery life is supposedly longer on the w850 when playing back music, (well i havent found this to be true at all, again its the same). Therefore, although the w850 is a good phone, i would rather recommend you buy a k800i along with a set of walkman earphones because i dont think its worth having a worse camera for the walkman branded extras!

              Actually N73 has bigger screen,3.2 mp camera,stereo speaker and symbian OS... but if you really2 want a never "hang" phone,enough good 2 megapixel camera,very great mp3 player with very good quality headset in retail package and off course a slide phone... go for w850i... i think this is one of the best non OS phone in market...

                      i have the w600i and i really wanna get this one. the w600i has been very very faithfull altho it got WSOD 2 times but now im kinda bored of it.
                      i have a few questions for people who would be kind enough to answer.
                      1) how many sms's does it store?
                      2) how loud is the speaker phone compared to various other phones?
                      3) does the black one get too many scratches too fast?

                      thanks a TON, in advance

                      PS: other possible alternatives to this phone?

                                yes you can play the radio through the loudspeaker. You still have to have the headphones plugged in as these act as the radio antenni to pick up the signal, but all you have to do is press options then select turn on loudspeaker.
