valy, 30 Apr 2006why at the camera specification the max resolution is 640x480?..the phone can make pic at 1280x960So: 0.3MP is the SENSOR resolution, and the thing that does all the magic to "upscale" to 1.3MP is just interpolation, it just fills in the missing pixels to basically enlarge the resolution of the images that you take. Interpolated 1.3MP is not the same as a phone with a ACTUAL 1.3MP sensor. So, the sensor is VGA (640x480), but 1.3MP (1280x960) is interpolated from the VGA sensor. You can still take photos at VGA (the native resolution of the sensor) and there's no interpolation magic there at VGA.

      The design of the phone (more specifically, how it gets thinner on the keypad) looks absolutely ugly and disgusting. If I had this phone, I would throw up.

                  Had this phone when it first came out, loved the interchangeable covers and it had a nice big screen at it's time for pictures and music. Loved it!

                                I bought mine 7 and a half years ago and it's still working. I've changed nothing. It came with a Li-Pol battery and is still able to keep the phone up for 3-4 days. I don't talk much on it. The only problem during the ages was the joystick. Sometimes it stops working but when I open it and clean the dust inside, it becomes almost as new.
                                My wife just bought me a new phone (LG OPTIMUS 3D P920) and I don't know how I'll replace it with the SE K500. I really love it and it does all the things I need from a phone.

                                      Even after 7 years, my SE K500i works like a charm. I only had to change the battery once. I've replaced the standard Li-Ion to a Li-Po, hopefully it will work fora couple of years more.
                                      It's a wonderful phone if you're looking for a simple mobile phone, not a all-in-one gadget.
