It amazes me how you guyz keep asking these questions about which camera phone looks the best, the answer is NONE, All these cell phones use cheap lenses.. PERIOD ive got a nokia 1.3M, sony 1.2M and another sony 2M pixel phones and all outcomes are the same! Clear in the middle and blurry going out toward the edges. Nothing changes, i go to my sony digital camera and go to VGA mode and the picture is IMACULATE from the inside and out!! No blur's at all its all about the LENSE. And until these cell phone companies realize to put in better lenses, the pics will always come out half way descent. But then again its a cell phone camera.. How much quality do you really expect to get?? Try it for ur self, if u have a camera phone and digital camera, set them to the same resolution and snap the same picture and look at them on the computer closely....

My actual experience of handset over 2 weeks use:

For: Great still camera; Conversation style SMS like iPhone (optional - switch easily to traditional view if you prefer it); pleasing design and feels well built and well featured; great screen; lens cover flush with back of handset when closed; improved email setup for pop3 accounts - worked well for me; MS Exchange Active Sync works with this handset for Email/Calendar/Contacts

Against: software glitches meant handset sadly failed totally within 14 days (full refund); screen scratches fairly easily; no WiFi.

Conclusion:
Would be a great handset if the software worked, and a really superb handset if it had WiFi.

Bought this phone yesterday and I think the sleek design is great. Camera quality is way worse than the K800i. Speakers are great. And features are basic. Overall, judging by the price, its actually worth buying if you wouldn't mind the camera.

> In reply to men in sorrow @ 2009-04-18 12:13 from RK03Yes useless service but not useless phone. I had mine over a month now not one single problem. You obviously had a duff one. The shop should have done straight swap as it was only just purchased. Not telling you to go get it repaired. The law says within 28 days of purchase if new phone is faulty they have to replace with new one.

useless keypad. The down key stopped working on reaching home from the shop where it was purchased. On returning back, we were told to contact the sony ericsson service center which was 15 miles away and make a complaint. Those guys took another ten days to replace the key pad. I really don't know someone should hunt behind this cold technical team of the company for a manufacturing defect. A simple thing of replacing the phone which was defective due to poor manufacturing at the point of sale would have been correct. Useless phone, useless service...

Really good phone. I brt it 3 weeks before, no probs till now, good battery backup,good sound quality on earphones. Camera is really good in daylight n pics r really bright n clear. Under lights photo quality may disappoint u. Screen clarity is superb, Really its awesome phone for the price u paid.
