Good: camera
Bad: SOFTWARE as usual with sony ericsson's
Comment: The best Hammer i evar bought!
oh i should explain..
software is sooo unreliable!!! sony just advises to update software, that will fix the particular problem but will cause 2 new sodding faults and so on and so on.... and scratches too easily on nails ;)

Good: I like the camera, and the shortcuts
Bad: touch keys, phone freezing, switching itself off
Comment: I was looking forward to getting this phone. upon arrival it was wonderful and worked really effectively. however after 9 months of use it would freeze and switch itself off. The only way to solve this would be taking the battery in and out. The touch keys don't always work. A few of my friends have this phone also and they would not recommed it either..

Good: nice camera looks good
Bad: buttons too awkward and dig into your hand touchscreen to tempremental and keeps crashing
Comment: I had been after this phone since it was first announced and only got it a few weeks ago and i've already put it on amazon. If your a frequent user of a phone and like playing a round on it then dont bother, the buttons and the awkward directional button start to dig into your fingers after a while. Add to this the touchscreen which will decide to take ages to work so if you've pressed it a few times after a few seconds it will suddenly work, and i've had this crash on me if it doesnt like the program i'm using (normally opera mini which worked perfectly fine on my older k810i) and it has the habit of taking your wallpaper off too. I really did want to like this phone as i have loved my previous SE phones but i just cant with this and the reliability issues have put me off the c905 too. I dont know whats going on with SE but i hope they get themselves straight as they make fantastic phones.

Good: .................
Bad: everythink
Comment: Dont get me started on the build quality. Apart from the keypad coming unstuck, the bottom door for the battery/cards felt like it was going to snap off at any moment.
As for picture quality, well. Day time was ok, but night/evening was a disaster.
The flash went off out of time of the shutter, so i always got a black picture.
never an update, no clue from sony. useless

Good: The idea to start with looked good, but was a lotal let down
Bad: Too bulky and missing key things
Comment: This phone looked like a probber mans phone, and for a time it was.
I owned one for nearly a year, but after 6 months the middle touch sencative button kept pressing its self like it was possessed.
After a couple of months of the phone either running very slow, or it resetting for no reason, i got the button ghost back again.The biggest problem is this touch button was the main button for the entire workings for the phone.
At the same time, the keypad, had started to come unglued, i mean, in this day and age, for a company like sony to have a keypay double sided sticky taping its keypad down it beyond a joke. Even blue peter has better quality than this.
swell as the obvious 4th class build quality, there is no wifi access, that the more usefull n95 has, and thats a really bad phone.
Basically, the ad's showed a phone that lit up either blue or green, but its just metalic paint. This should have been my first clue to the phone, CHEAP.
I returned it to O2, where they said that they wont be getting any more of these is, as they know how rubbish it was.
I got it swapped for a C902, which is the same spec, but is slimmer, and possibly a bit better, but ive only had it a month and all has been well so far.
Summery, if someone sives you a K850I, say thank you, and throw it in the bin behind there back. Rubbish phone, not worth the postage.

Good: Love the phone itself
Bad: Hate the fact that it is always freezing - just when you need it
Comment: Have had this phone about six months now. Worked alright at the beginning but the touch screen is very erratic. I seem to spend my life taking the battery out so that it can be rebooted to make the touch screen work again. Apart from that - it is a very good phone. Sound is good and it is a nice size.

Good: the camera
Bad: it crashes
Comment: I got this phone 2 wks ago and i loved it, i still do but unfortunately today it crashed people warned me it would do this but i didnt listen, i had to take the battery out then put it back in and when i did the touchscreen buttons wouldnt wrk and chose itself to go on flight mode so i had 2 switch it off and try again, i eventually got it 2 go on normal mode and it wrkd fine for about an hour then the battery died when it was actually fully charged and it decided 2 send out a text i sent to just 1 person 2 my whole contact list, luckily for me i get free txts but thats not the point, its wrkn now but it has crashed again in the last half hour i am now going to send it back and get a different phone altogether and im gutted because it is a good phone but its not worth the money.
