What is it: 3G handset with 3.2 megapixel camera
What we think: A handset with pizazz, and not all of it comes from the 3.2-megapixel camera

We like:
Great camera; neat photography add-ons; high-quality 3G video calling; FM radio
We don't like:
Not enough built-in memory; fiddly memory card format; proprietary headphones connector
You might also need:
Sony Memory Stick Micro
CNET.co.uk judgement:
For a relatively small and lightweight 3G phone the Sony Ericsson K800i is positively dripping with features and the headline 3.2-megapixel camera isn't the only good thing about it. We aren't big fans of Sony's new tiny Memory Stick Micro, but if nothing else the K800i stylishly shows that 3G handsets have at last made it mainstream
Editors' Choice Winner 2006
Taking camera phones to the next level, this is a great all-rounder with an impressive 3.2-megapixel camera and real xenon flash

Gear Envy: Sony Ericsson K800i
Camera meets phone in Sony Ericsson's Cyber-shot handset. For the David Baileys, it has a 3.2-megapixel camera with autofocus and flash; for the Paris Hiltons, it's a 3G phone with all the extras. Is it a wannabe, or has it arrived?
