am looking at getting a new mobile phone as a result of drunken antics at new year :eek: really quite like the sony ericson w850i and was wondering if anyone has this phone and what it was like?






p.s. for anyone who had my number it wont be in use until maybe the weekend and i lost all my numbers so if i had urs would you mind pm'in me it again - thanks :eek:
 
I've had two.

the first was OK, but I managed to smash it when I went out on my bike and had a wee incedent with an unpruned tree :p

claimed on insurance and picked another up from the shop.

and this newer one was no where near as good as the first. within 4weeks the slidy bit was starting to come loose and wobble, none of the buttons were anywhere near teh same quality (the number ONE button and HASH keys are very soft to press down and often don't actually result in a press).

it regulary doesn't lock the keys when I close the screen, and has cost me near £10 when it went on the internet by itself for nearly an hour(n) :mad:

oh and hte walkmen button is nearly impossible to push down and it actually 'turn on', it doesn't feel like its connected to anything(n)

I WANTEDT the 810i, but the t mobile shops in sunderland weren't getting any more ever. so I was stuck with this
 
oh dear thats not good, really like the phone too :( might just have to get one any way, sad but im lost without my phone :eek:
 
I would go after a k800 if you could get one also. much better buttons than even my first one.

if you really want a 850, make sure you try it out in store first in its box (for te one you ACTUALLY get) and make sure its an earlier better quality one
 
erm, i had before i trashed it the nokia 6280 but like the sony ericsson phones which are out at the moment.

not too fussed about the fancy things on the fone, i dont like the one frank has which i think is the k800i but like to have a reasonable quality camera, expandable memory, main things for me atm. oh and i like the fact the phone is fairly compact (goes easily in my bag for the pub :p)
 
go to the actual phone companies shops not phones4u or the other one.

I went into phones4u said, right I've been offered this contract in tmobile,and the deal is sweatened with the 850 because they don't have any 810's (was mean't to be £30 for the 810, then £60 for the 850, I got the 850 for free).
then I had 3month insurance free too. asked phones 4u if they simply had anything better.
next thing I know is they are pulling phones out, breaking seals and putting simcards in.
WO WO WO. I'mnot buying a contract from you guys, i'm just asking if you have anything better. then...
.but we've opened two phones and two sims, you MUST take the offer.

errm no. have a nice day.

damn pushy phone salesmen/women. :devil:
 
frank has always got good deals from phones 4u but do agree they can be a bit pushy, though if i think that ill leave it and go back to a different sales person and make sure that they know i thought the other one was pushy lol

will have a look around but will need to decide on saturday and will probably have to stick with 3 as thats who my other contract is with and need to be able to use both sims :eek: damn vodka! :bang:
 
I got a k800i, only for the camera which is excellent. Most of the Sony phones these days have pretty much the same features as each other, only looks and camera size really as far as I can tell set them apart. Gone right off Nokia recently they seem fragile for some reason.
 
As a past fan of Nokia's I was very disappointed when i came to upgrade my N70 last year, and there was crap all about worth considering.

I stayed with the N70 until September 2006 when Orange virutally begged me to try the K800i on trial. I was completely sceptical and slightly resistant at first, but to be honest apart from the video recording quality (very, very poor imho compared to n70) everything else about this phone has won me over totally.
