          I do not care about the camera I nearly not use it at all what I use every day is the mp3 player and I some times do not want to cary the mp3 with me every day.

          And no problem with asking people about the sound quality compared with another phone then give you the advise is it worth the upgrade or not, this is why we all here.

          so if you do not want to give others advices about your experience with the phone better not talking and say negative comments.

            The k850i is an old outdated phone but bits the W890 in every way (except thickness).

            So if you want a lousy thin phone - you can get one for less than 300USD.

            BTW, not all W890 has a battery problem!!!
            So, if your is fine - be happy but do not claim that all W890 is good!!!!!

            SE should have recalled the bad ones!!!!!

              I do not understand how people can ask about the sound quality of a phone strangers. :)))

              Why don´t you go and check it out.

              Take a lousy MP3 player with you - I did.

              By the way, If the W890 is a walkman phone so it has an excuse to have a lousy camera, no flash, no autofocus etc. then why there is NOT a single independent review ever mention technical data about sound quality - distorsion etc.

              Also, I think in 2008 or 2009 for 300-400USD having a walkman phone with a small screen is not enough accomplishment - it is reasonable to ask for a decent camera etc.

              or usable buttons, something more than only a lousy music playback!

                Dani, 06 Jun 2008@ mstL im now going to correct you. in your so called 'C... moreThe W890 initially was sold (street price) for 500 USD!!!!

                That means it was one of the most expensive SE phone!! SE intended as a high price phone!

                2˝ screen for 500 USD is a joke!!!!

                Luckily the phone did not sell, but it clearly demonstrating SE´s intension - I feel sorry for people who trusted SE pricing!

                  Dani, 06 Jun 2008@ mstL I dont agree with the 'case' with W890i list. ... moreI agree with you!

                  On this forum several people complained also about the low volume of ring and the lousy speaker phone quality.

                  Sometimes I forget to put it on the list :)

                  Thanks for reminding me!

                          Dear omai,

                          I need to know the sound quality with the earphones (I do not care about the speaker)
                          is the sound laud and clear and how about the megabase.
                          I had w800i and I want to update to a better walkman phone.

                              My Review:

                              - small screen - Its Pefect for its Price Range >>> (BUT Other music phone have big screen )
                              - lack of autofocus - Its a Walkman Phone(not Cyber-Shot)>>> (Given)
                              - lack of flash - Again its a WALKMAN Phone!!!11 >>> (But Other Music phone have flash)
                              - lack of Wifi - Its not 'High-End' if you want a High-End Walkman and Wi-Fi W960i is the way to go!! (But Even other mid phone have)
                              - lousy battery - If you Switch 3G OFF, the Battery Life increses up to 5-6 Days!!!!!!!!!!!!!! (5-6days no 3g? maybe in standby)


                              But I prefer to have a very good and over sized screen at the same time having a good music even if no wifi.

                                      I dont agree with the 'case' with W890i list.

                                      but you forget one of the slight biggest drawbaks of W890i, some people might not agree with me..

                                      this is the drawback: The Speaker is to 'Soft' and abit low in Volume.

                                      i might be returning W890i becuase i can never hear it ring!!!!!!!!! even at Maximum Volume.

                                      Oh Well, i think i might not return it im in decision at the moment!!!

                                      i would have to use my Older W850i ..Hmmm

                                        Anonymous, 01 Jan 1970What's the net? Is that like internet? Yeah clearly don't know what that is maybe you could post me a link?

                                        BTW if you look at most of SE's phones they have small buttons, maybe the designers all have feminine delicate lady hands. And I'm not 8 years old, but I think the buttons are ok, not great but ok. Only problem is when you get too excited and mash your fingers all over the buttons and your txt message turns out gibberish.
