You see I lost my K750i a few months ago, in january to be precise *www.thinkdigit.com/forum/showthread.php?t=46765. I had bought a 2gb memory stick and a walkman headphone for it. Now, i wanna buy a new cell. The problem is that I had shortlisted w850i and k800i but they are weak in camera and music respectively. The next best thing is Nokia n73 music edition. But the problem is my father wants to use the memory stick and headphone so he is telling me again to buy k750i or w810i.Since they are about 10,000 bucks cheaper. My father's viewpoint is that I wouldn't get the 10,000 extra value's worth for the n73me and that my requirements would be solved by the k750 itself. But I don't wanna buy a thing which I have used for one year and which has become quite old. So what do you guys say?

I'd say you should buy W830i. The camera is quiet good, the music excellent and it also comes with a 1gb card. It costs 17k.

@ gauravakaasid, W880i is already available and costs around 24k and doesn't even have fm and auto focus.

in any ways u cant put in ur mem stick pro duo in w880 or any other newer gen phones. they all use m2.

i'd say get w810i. its great in cam as well as music. u wont regret!!! why spend 10k more??

ps: btw, u've got a great dad! :D man.. even i'll try that.. lose my w700i and ask my dad for w810i!!! hehe... :D

@soumya
If you really like N73 ME and can get it in your budget than i'll say go for it. Its got a great cam and music and comes with 2gb card. You can always convince your dad. Also remember paying twice the money doesn't always get you twice as better phone (an unwritten rule of Mobile phones). So by paying 20k for N73 compared to 10k for K750i won't get you twice as better phone. Try telling that to your dad.

^^ yes krazy is rite. choose wisely. buy what u need for today!

@aravind
i use custom acoustic drivers. SE has introduced automatic volume leveller (read audio suppressor! :D) in r1db. so i reverted back and am using custom acoustic driver (mixed and matched myself to get the desired o/p i need). the speaker volume is excellant now! comparable to n series!!!! i got a good choice of menu icons and styles, made unlimited sms storage and lots others.

lets not hijack this thread. plz continue here:

LOL...

@krazyfrog

you are telling me to go for the n73me because of it's better cam i guess. How does the sound compare with that of w810i? Is it much better?

It isn't much better. W810i is infact much better thru earphones.

I'd advise you to go for W810i. Its a kill now at 12.5 K :D

N73 ME sound quality is very good, but not better than W810i. But as an overall device, N73 ME is much better than W810i.

yeah....i don't have any budget problems as such right now cause my father has decided to give me what i want. But i want to make sure that he is happy too with the purchase he makes. He is pressing me to go for the k750i
but he adds that it's his own opinion. I don't have to stick to it.

They must have tested a device with older firmware. Newer firmwares (especially Music Edition) have no such problems.

You can test it for yourself at a shop if you're not sure.

i'd recommend w810i.. it's a great phone. owned it for almost 6 months now.. works great.. an excellent 2.0 mp camera and gr8 for managing music.

also add to it that i just love the sony ericsson keybads for it's functionality :D

actually my parents were pressing me to buy the k750i....anwyz the bigger picture is that now they are feeling a bit guilty coz they are beginning to realise that i am not satisfied with this phone after 2 years. so I am trying to cash on the opportunity and buy a computer with this config:-

Intel Core 2 Duo E6600 @2.4 Ghz
Intel DG965WH MotherBoard
Hitachi Sata2 300 GB HDD
2 GB DDR2 667 Mhz RAM
GeForce 7600 GT
Sony 15 inch LCD monitor

My father is also feeling my pain and has decided to give me within the 2nd week of may. I guess K750 and this compu is better than a N73 ME alone.
