Sony Ericsson K800i Cyber-shot

...my mobile phone from the Sony Ericsson W800i which had been fairly problematic at times to the Sony Ericsson K800i. It's a phone that I quite liked the look of but the fact that it features a 3.2 mega pixel digital camera was something that I loved the thought of - having had a 2 mega pixel camera on the W800i that gave some pretty good results, I thought moving up to 3.2 mega pixels would be amazing. That said, I have read online that the camera ...
...is expandable with the new Sony Memory Stick Micro (M2) which is available as 256MB, 512MB and 1GB versions and are smaller than previous memory sticks - coming in slightly smaller than a 5p piece. It's remarkable that so much can fit onto so little. The prices of the external memory sticks will vary quite wildly depending on where you shop for them. I purchased a 1GB one from a Phones4U store for £39.99 - whereas other high street mobile phone ...

Review of Sony Ericsson K800i Cyber-shot

...phones), I eventually plumped for Sony Ericsson's K800i. When I first opened the box, I was immediately impressed. Sony Ericsson had bundled a USB cable with the phone, enabling connection to my PC. This was something I had never encountered before and I'd always had to buy one for use with my Nokia. Once the phone had charged (which only took a few hours), I set about connecting to the PC. The installation was extremely easy and the software was ...
...like I'd always been a Sony Ericsson user. Physically, the phone was just as easy to use. The keys are responsive and just about the right size (any smaller and they'd be unusable) with the right spacing and the little joystick. The phone's just the perfect size for me to use and carry about. It's not the lightest phone I've ever owned, but I did find the weight comforting, initially suggesting that the phone was quite robust. Most of the little ...

Review of Sony Ericsson K800i Cyber-shot

...about my new phone the Sony Ericsson C902, before this I had the Sony Ericsson K800i, which I would call my old faithful friend. I used it, dropped it, and shouted at it and it still stood by me for 18 long months! When I had the K800i (I still have it, I couldn't dream of throwing it away… maybe selling it… but not throwing it away!) I have been on the 3 contract for a good few years now and this was my second upgrade from them. As you can guess, ...
...sell it in all silver. Sony Ericsson also did a limited edition 'royal' silver model… which I am guessing is another shade of silver to the normal silver model…… confused? Don't be, I think it was just a way of them selling more phones to the phone fanatics and it was in aid of a new James Bond film. The screen on this is quite big and is very clear, the only downside is when it is sunny or if you are in a bright room you literally cannot see the ...

Review of Sony Ericsson K800i Cyber-shot

...like most of the other Sony Eriksson's but I find this one OK. My k750i joystick started playing up a couple of weeks after I got it but so far so good on this phone. The buttons are a bit tiddy for my liking and I have skinny fingers yet I still manage to sometimes push another one as they are so small! The back of the phone is even very stylish with a shiny lens cover which slides to the side to reveal the lens rather than downwards like the other ...

Effects - You can choose to make the picture look like an old photo with the black and white setting or make the picture look like a negative as well as a couple of other effects. Picture Quality - Either make the picture look normal or fine. Time and Date - Put the time and date on the picture so that you know when it was taken if you decide ...
...person displayed. Excellent idea by Sony Ericsson because if you enable the user to alter it to what they want they are happy because its the way that they want it and no one elses way. Connectivity ************** There are two main ways to send pictures, videos and music using this phone for free and that is bluetooth and infrared. Infrared is becoming an old form of transfering files plus it has to be right next to another phones infrared port ...

Review of Sony Ericsson K800i Cyber-shot

...last time I had a Sony Ericsson was at the time of the P900 which I thought it could not be topped in functionality and product quality. How wrong was I? This phone has everything one would want and maybe a few more… Lets start with its main selling point: CYBERSHOT - Definitely deserves this mark of camera quality. The quality is amazing. The functions that come with it are more that some dedicated camera manufacturers' offer let alone phones. ...
...the lens like any other Sony camera courtesy of Mr. Carl Zeiss this phone is worth getting only for the camera. I have included a picture taken with this camera and they look just great. On the down side the camera lens cover that slides down feel a bit cheap and tacky. I would have really loved a metallic or pseudo-metallic material like front facia of the phone but just plastic with black veneer. Cybershot doesn't deserve to be engraved on that ...

Review of Sony Ericsson K800i Cyber-shot

...one. I once had a Sony cybershot digital camera which was a very good camera with lots of functions; I was amazed that they had put on in a phone so I had to get it. First impressions It's a bit chunky and I didn't really know how to use it as I have only ever had a nokia, I started browsing through all of the menus and soon found it to be a very good phone. When it tried to put the sim card in it I though I was going to break the back cover like ...
...Micro SD, but typical to Sony they have made their own unique one for it called an M2 which costs a lot. I brought a 1GB card from an 02 Store and it set me back a whopping £60, they are available on eBay for around £40 but I am impatient so got one from a shop. The one I purchased came with an adapter so you can use it as a Sony Memory Stick. They are easy to put into the phone just flip a cover on the side and they just click in and out. Battery ...

Sony Ericsson K800i Hmmm what can I say , I brought the phone two months ago and I am slightly not happy about it , but let me first describe the phone to you all. Black Sony Ericsson K800i The phone is light weight, black in colour , it has 3.2 mega pixels camera, and its auto focus. It has a slightly large screen. My one is 3g make , which has a 3g logo near the buttons. Head set button on left hand side , adjustable volume buttons on the side, ...

Another problem is the phone some ...

Review of Sony Ericsson K800i Cyber-shot

I got the Sony Ericsson k800i about a month ago and have used it pretty much none stop. My first thought when I unpacked the phone and turned it on was how hard it was to use the joystick. You end up pressing down intead of pressing it in, resulting in you selecting your language as Spanish (or something like that) by mistake. After using the phone for a few minutes though I got used to it. People who have tried to use it have also said that the ...
...The first feature I tried was, of course, the 3 megapixel camera the phone boasts. It is pretty impressive, especially as I was used to a VGA camera. The picture quality is good, taking big 2048x1536 photos. Unfortunately the camera seems to lose it's quality when taking "high quality video". Texting is something I do a lot, and it's a bit tricky with the tiny buttons which are right at the bottom of the phone. This, like the joystick though, you ...

Review of Sony Ericsson K800i Cyber-shot

One of the latest offerings from Sonys Erricson range comes the K800i limited edition. The main difference, and as far as i am aware, only difference is the fact that this phone is in silver, rather than the previous black (or brown) edition. ----------Size & Feel---------- First things first, lets start with the size. Now for what is essentially a normal phone, one that doesnt have smartphone capabilitys it is in my opinion quite large. Somewhat ...
...too bad, and does feel comfortable to carry and hold, but size wise its not far off the same size as the Nokia n70. Which lets face it, can do a lot more. Don't let you put this off however, there are features on this that more than makes up for it as i will explain later. The phone has a nice layout, with all sorts of buttons which arent exactly obvious. The two clip type things, which are actually buttons next to the earpiece link directly to the ...

Review of Sony Ericsson K800i Cyber-shot

I have owned a Sony Ericsson K800i for around 6 months and it is by far the best phone I have used from any manufacturer. Its not without its faults but compared to the numerous other Sony Ericsson, Samsung and Nokia phones I have used previously the K800i is a real breath of fresh air. If you want a compact phone with a brilliant camera thats packed with useful features then the K800i is a great choice. Pros - Phone. The K800i has all the usual ...
...has a card slot for Sony Memory Stick Micro M2 Cards (not included). If you planning to take loads of photos and have a large MP3 collection a 1GB card is a good addition to the 64mb of integrated storage. Especially handy for long trips. - Screen. The phone has a QVGA (320x240 pixels) screen and it produces a very bright and sharp picture which is good for playing games and viewing your photo's. - Games. There are loads of K800i games available ...

...phone does not disappoint. Sony Ericsson seem to be renowned for their long battery life and this phone is no exception. I only have to charge once every week or so and I use the phone to call, text and take photos pretty heavily in this time. I also love the addition of the Phone Status key on the right hand side of the phone - this lets you know all the important stuff about your phone like your model no., your phone number, amount of phone memory ...
...a music player which the Sony Ericsson phones seemd to be famed for but since I have an iPod I don't use this feature although friends have told me its pretty good and if you use a memory stick then you can fit quite a few songs on it. On to the Cyber ShotTM. camera - its 3.2MP and the quality really shows with amazing results. When I transfer my pictures to my computer using the bundled data cable they look great and means I don't need a separate ...

...the price and features a sony ericsson would be the best that meets all my requirements. I also specifically wanted it on Vodafone and was not available, however the salesman stated that it would come unlocked for the same price which i was more than happy with. I was really hesitant, I had never had a sony ericsson only ever had Nokia, but after looking at the features and comparing the prices, I noticed that the k800i had the features I wanted, ...
...expected from something carrying the sony name. I love the fact you can play music with one touch button access again no going into the menu to play music. As a 3g phone it has video calling, not that I have ever used it, but the fact the feature is there is good. It also has display pictures, so the person who is ringing you has their picture come up. I actually prefer the little features that most phones including top of the range smart phones ...
