Hi,
I have just bought the K800 as I was impressed by the battery life - I am a little disappointed in reality - I am getting no where near 350 hrs standby or 7 hrs talktime - more like 2 hrs talktime and 100hrs standby - is anyone else getting a better life... If so maybe my settings need changing .. any suggestions???

hey guys
the phone is great , but like any phone this phone have some great specifications and some little bit bugs , for expample the caller voice you can hear it very far , the mp3 player voice is not strong enough , but the camera is wonderful and the design is awesome and everything in this phone is perfect

I got this phone a couple of weeks ago and while all of the features are nice i found that the network reception is appalling compared with my k750i. I dont know if this is because its a 3g phone and O2's network coverage is different but i can see im going to hate this phone because of it. I had to download a program to make the red LED stay on so i can use it as a torch as i was gutted that this phone didnt have a white light like the K750I.

naevy,..:)

it's because the phone is processing 3mp pictures in comparison to W900 which is only 2mp.. and i have figured out that your phone behaves like a real cybershot camera, coz my Sony Cybershot S40 also experience what your phone does.. anyway hows the quality of the photos?

IF you look inside the itsy bity pamphlet that comes with you M2 card, it clearly states that you will not be able to use all 512mb on the card. Some memory has already been used to due preset files on the card.

the capturing and saving of photos of k800 are very slow compared to w series ,say w810 and w900... moreover, when viewing photos, the picture blurred for a few seconds before finally become clear..... why does this happen?? the w series aint got this problem

SE dudes,..
for those who become disappointed about the 2nd camera unability to take self-portraits,.. don't worry.. have you noticed the mirror at the side of it's main camera and this phone's got autofocus, so who needs 2nd camera for self protrating if it's main camera is better?

btw. it's better for SE 3g phones to have self-portraiting using main camera(esp. K800) for the 2nd camera produces noisy and crampled images,.. main camera is especiallized for taking sharper images.. experienced this with 6680,N70, and P990i,..
