Please Note: Review was written quite a few months and has been updated.
Why buy a digital camera when you can get an excellent camera and a phone in one! I had this sony ericsson k800i for about a year and a half and even though i must have dropped it like 100 times its still working really good! I've currently got another sony ericsson phone (see my review on c905).
I'd say the camera on it is the best thing as it 3.2 mega pixel, the "cybershot" name pretty much gives it away on how sony erisson have made yet another gerat camera phone. As im always printing out actual photos in great quality, you would never guess they were from a phone. The camera section includes: Auto focus so the face is detected and makes taking photos easier, Picture blogging, Xenon flash which enables you to take good quality photos indoors and outdoors. Image stabiliser, Digital Zoom, Video recording, Video streaming, Video stabiliser, BestPic so you a few photos are taken at once at you pick your best one, Video Clip, Red-eye reduction, Picture wallpaper and Wallpaper animation.
The colours of the phones vary, but are available in silver, black or brown. Other features include, music player, radio, bluetooth, video and video calling, 3D Games, email, text messaging, Picture Messaging, alarm clock, calculator and calendar. I would say this is a great phone as it has all the necessitys. Everything is pretty much easy to get used to once you've had a bit of a play around with it. The design of the phone is appealing, and i particularly like the slide feature at the back of the phone which hides the camera, an advantage to keeping the lens clean. (Also makes a good little mirror). The downfall of this phone is that the joystick can be quite annoying at times as you may accidently press things you weren't meant too and can be very sensitive. The phone is fairly bulky and thick yet i take that as an advantage because at least i would notice if i was to go missing in my handbag!
