Sony Ericsson K850 - user opinions and reviews

problem with touch key can easily be repaired just by updating or restoring it's firmware using SEUS. Been using this phone as a spare phone and dropped it several times and still works well. it's bricknesn form has a good points for making the unit sturdy and strong hahaha. anyways, price is cheap nowadays.
about modding the phone, well it's nice that we could tweak and change this brick phone but i strongly agree that the update that comes from SEUS is much better.
Again, if you want a simple phone try this one and if you like it, buy it.
and oh yeah, it's battery life is awesome. truly an iPod and a DigiCam in one. Cyber-Walkman

Mehedi, 03 Apr 2009how do u upgrade the frimware?dose it costs money?try going to your settings menu on your cp and go to update firmware then go to check version updates, if there is you might be charged by your service provider for the OTA update. you can also go to SEUS on the SE website and download the firmware there using data cable. or maybe go to your SE centre and have it updated there (that's what i did) and this will cost money (but depending on the service center it might come for free specially if you have a warranty and you encounter BROD).

yep yep you're also right. a 3.5 jack would make this a bomb hahaha. anyways, a walkman adapter would do a trick.
about the headset issue. the headset that comes in the package works well, i've been using it for the past half year and it work good but if you're a freaking music clear/megabass lover, try using a walkman adapter and put an ipod earphones or a bose headphones. this will surely and definitely do the trick.

3Pac, 03 Apr 2009For the past 9 years i've used alot of phones, from the extinct 5110 to recently release phone... moreU r ryt.Dis fone does need to have the cyber-walkman tag. It is indeed a gr8 fone. Regarding wi-fi, u r spot on. Ppl like me dun like surfin da internet on a fone. N wi-fi isn't evrywher n it aint free evrywher. Jus dat dis beauty lacks a 3.5mm jack....

Mehedi, 03 Apr 2009how do u upgrade the frimware?dose it costs money?Upgrading of ur firmware is free. Go 2 SE website, clik support n dnld the SEUS (SE update service sw). Follow the instructions n voila! Ur fone will hav da l8st fw for free. Jus dun 4get 2 backup ur contacts n txts.
Regarding earfones, unfortunately the default ones are not good enuf. I purchased HPM-82. n trust me, u dun need a walkman fone at all.
