to see a modded k550i@w610i at youtube type this k550i become w610i

by the way the sound quality of k550i is very good, dont have a mega bass option. You can customize the equalizer.

digital zoom = croping a section of the pic then expand it to desired size.
i could easily do that on my pc using paint, pics will look much better than using digital zoom. IF U ARE REALLY GOOD AT MOBILE PHOTOGRAPHING (like me =D) u will notice how useless is digital zoom. i'd rather take a normal picture then zoom it in my pc. Hope my opinion will clear your mind.

I got this phone yesterday and i am pleased to say that it is as good as i expected - even better. The camera is better than in the test that Gsmarena did. Macro function is good! But as always light is of essence. The phone is also quick. I got a 1Gb card and it does not slow the phone down. I do not know if SE has made any improvements on the radio but i think that the reception and sound is better than in my old phone (w550i). Last but not least when you hold the phone in your hand you get a feeling of quality! I highly recommend k550i

This site is for modifying your k550i to W610i. Change camera driver, sound driver, adding flash themes etc.

Hi, I hope my question will not sound stupid but I was just wondering whether is there any way that I can get the dust out of my K550? I really love my phone but the dust is annoying. Thanks.

> In reply to Anonymous @ from HHHH - click to readr U angry wid this phone? hahahaha... LOL.
1. EDGE's signal is much better and cheaper for me, coz 3G'signal is premium signal (more expensive at kilobytes).
2. wifi is useless in my place and wifi's signal is the most expensive signal. what for expensive???
3. symbian ???
i hate symbian, but i likes windows.
windows is amazing.
actually symbian just for looseeeer
(hangs at many time and restarted again and again).
k550 is much better... closely
