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, camera button just beneath the volume control on the right side of the phone. Small side to side movable stick numbers at the bottom of the screen. The speakers are situated at the back of the phone.
Features Bluetooth, internet options, USB compatible, 5 language options includes Dansk ,Deutsch, English, Italian, Svenska, English dictionary, infrared port, phone memory 49 mega bites, RDS reader, video, picture files, 4 ready installed games, 20 ring tones, 4 themes, alarm clock, calendar, time settings for world clock, radio, music player, video player, sound recorder, contact list .
Excellent battery life batter lasts three days , good coverage Quite thick phone
The box The box contains USB cable, battery charger, Hans free head set, the phone, battery, CD for the computer. Small black box very smart.
The Network provider M y network provider is 3G and I am very happy with them , I pay £40 pound per month and I get 50 video calls, 700 minutes voice calls, 150 text message, £5.00 worth of downloads. I did not pay anything for the phone I received it free due to upgrade options.
My opinion
I always trusted Sony Ericsson because my last phone was also a different Sony Ericsson and I used it for two years and it still works but Sony Ericsson K800i was a big disappointment for me in the beginning it was working very well but now the screen freezes time to time , firstly I thought it could be because I use the phone very often but now I realised the screen actually freezes for no apparent reason. Another problem is the phone some times shut its self down I don’t now why . The sound quality is very poor .
When making video calls the picture quality is great compared to other Sony Ericsson. When taking pictures it has a good picture quality and it holds some many pictures, the radio coverage is perfect.
I do not recommend this phone to anyone especially if you are buying from 3G because I don’t think the phone will last long , I will be contacting 3G so I can replace the phone if its carries on like this. So be aware.
