pc world mag also had k810 as the best camera phone.

The k790 came out 2 years ago...and make no mistake..it did not jump o the top at the first release...there were many bugs which wer however sentenced to in lessthan 5 months..the k750 was a bestseller.the best 2 mp phone ver made...the same cam module was used in the w800 and the w810...
then came the age of the 3.2 mp phones..sony excelled in that too..coming up with flying results in the k790/k810 category..


even now the 3.2 mp phones by SE..namely the w890,w760 have the best cams in the business..

then came the 5 mp market..SE lost some ground here owing to the fact that the n95 had tbeen there for a long period of time...the first n95 was a disaster..with the phone lagging,crashing,had battery problems,build quality problems,etc etc...but the year had taught nokia and then they cam out blasting with the n95 8 gb version and the n82..SE however for some reason delayed their 5 mp flagship..and finally released the k850...its imperible thatthe first version had many bugs..and the mobile review sites..well..went forward and tested the beta software..

the beta firmware has alaways been a case of inefficiency on part of SE..whn the final release has brought in rich dividends..the beta firmware has always brought itslef down..as a result..worse reviews and fall in SE's market share...but times have changed and SE has released better and more stable firmware...the pic quality has improved drastically..the K850 uses the IMX-2020 cam sensor whih is one of the best in its class..and has immense power to counter any situation..


@praka-speed does not depend on processing power alone...SE does not need a heavily powered processor coz its a feature phone..and they hardly make use of much of the processing power left..and the phones are coded in such a way that maximum utilization of raw processing power is done...
the symbian UIQ phones by SE have more ram and also run on high end processors..pertains to the needs of the user.

K810 cpu and k850 cpu are similar - 208 Mhz
N series use 3xx Mhz

its just that K810 software (A100 platform) is more stable than the new K850 software (A200 platform), which is still under development.

N series sometimes slow down because they use symbian OS (sometimes heavier than Java)

@praka-cool thread..hope those nokia guys dont cum spamming here as well.. ;)

Sorry to barge in & spoil the SE fanboys' party. :))

But I cudn't resist sharing this news item which shows that LG scraped past Sony Ericsson to become the fourth largest handset vendor behind Motorola as per the units shipped in the first quarter this year. The top selling vendor is of course Nokia with Samsung a distant second.

^^^ Oh I simply do not care about what the sales number says. I love my SE and that's enough. :D

BTW can I ask a somewhat noobish question ? I have a SE W700i and when I put it to charge it never shows "Charge Complete" or "Battery Full" or something like that. I have seen that the battery indicator is full and showing 100% but aren't there any notifications about the battery being full ? :confused: :confused:

'coz I want a better camera fone.atleast 3MP. :p .and I finalized on K810i:p
W810i aint that bad it got 2MP cam though although it is a walkman fone.

What I am confused as like many others is , K790i or K810i -obviously K810i is what I favour.but K790i-they got EDGE :( .


I want to know how is the speaker sound of K810i?Is it a disaster?

______ ____ ____ ___
guys,Which UIQ fone comes with a 3 MP cam?
*www.uiq.com/sonyericsson_p1.html
I saw P1i .but touch screen and stylus...how is this phone?
Is there any real benefit If I buy a UIQ fone? :confused:

also,this camera spec with zoom 3x in mobiles like P1i and 16x in K810i and all,is it real ?or some software way? :confused:

sorry to spoil ur party..but its only for the 1st quarter...overall its still the 4th largest.. :D

SE was formed in 2001..LG has been in the market since 1995...well...and SE's spec folio for this year is by far the best..

4-5 mp phones
1-8 mp phone :D
6-walkmans with one full touchscreen and uiq.. :D

yeah.. the sales did drop drastically last year.. the reason being SE couldnt manage to deliver a phone like w810i.. it had record sales in 2006 and no phone of SE was that famous last yr..

Well, I'll advise you to get K790i instead of K810i....Thats because K790i has EDGE which K810i doesn't have. K810i has 3G which K790i lacks.......And both have the same camera.....

Dude the camera in K810i and P1i are the same. Cyber-shot is just a brand name and not a guarantee for quality. K750i does not have Cyber-shot branding still produces better quality pics than Cyber-shot branded K550i and it's colour are even better than K850i! Similarly Walkman is also a brand name and a non-Walkman SE phone sounds exactly similar to a Walkman phone. :)

lol .. this is a puny thread.
there are many many SE dedicated amazing and very highly active forums.

Yes and one more thing...

This is proven and tested by us the SE Flashers/Modders/hackers..

Phones that are Cybershot branded have totally different camera software/module where the color rendering is much better and a reduced version of that is used in walkmans.

Best example is the k550/w610. Both have exactly same hardware. K550 takes good pictures the w610i does not, they are really out of color. But when the w610 is given a dose of k550 firmware it takes picture exactly as the k550i

@krates:no,my budget at max is 12K.while P1i is quoted around 13K(as per the dealer,dont know about gps available or no) :) while K810 at 10600 is a very good deal,I feel.your opin?

May 29, 2008 at 10:23 PM
hey praka123

I don't think Sony Ericsson suits you.
First of all You should go for a Linux based phone if any.

Next, take a look at N82. I think its for you. Even N73me, Its got a fantastic camera and symbian OS with lots of features.

I don't know how to compare k810 with N73me Camera. But both may be more or the same.

You should buy a Symbain phone that is more durable and has all qualities of NOKIA phones.

Sony Ericsson K810i is more for the people that not need much functionality like that of symbain stuff.

k810 camera is best for casual instant photography.

As far as the K810 Camera Software goes, its features are

  1. Cybershot Software, Good coloring.
  2. Picture quality, compression selector.
  3. Focus type selector a) Macro b) Infinite c) Auto.
  4. White balance rendering.
    Basically software color rendering according to lighting.
    Like daylight, cloudy, incandescent, fluorescent.
  5. Scenes
    Twilight landscape, Twilight portrait, Landscape, Portrait, beach/snow, Sports.
    These scenes set the brightness, contrast and more importantly the camera FPS, to suit the situation best.
  6. Flash.

These are important features. Others are just fancy stuff in the camera.

but K810i is cybershot means someting better in cam section may be :?

yes man. The cybershot software is much better .. telling you again.

k810a = K810 America
k810c = K810 China
k810i = K810 International

May 29, 2008 at 10:39 PM
I never told you anything about hacking.

I just told you features of k810. Read it clearly ;)!
Also i told the the 'i' means !

I am pretty sure the k810 camera is much better. P1i has a same 3mp camera without the cybershot. That's with it. Software changes only.

hacking, yeah.

Its really easy. Your phone should be CID53 EROM.
Use Jdflasher to change menu icons, customize menu... may be a ubuntu menu pack ;)
Nothing much except customization for CID53 as of now.

Actually customization is replacing files in the protected part of the phone File System. That's all.

If yours phone is a little old and is CID52 EROM then awesome. Enter patching, elves, fs remapping etc ;)

Well guys, G700 and G900 have been released.....(their GSMArena pages say that they're available).....

G700: *www.gsmarena.com/sony_ericsson_g700-2248.php
G900: *www.gsmarena.com/sony_ericsson_g900-2247.php

Sony Ericsson G700 and G900

Next in-line are two new Symbian UIQ smartphones of conservative looks - the Sony Ericsson G700 and Sony Ericsson G900. The two phones have identical dimensions and feature the same 2.4" 262K-color QVGA TFT touchscreen displays.

Sony Ericsson G700 and G900 will be tri-band handsets with 3G capabilities. They will also sport stereo Bluetooth and 160MB of internal memory. The memory is further expandable through the built-in Memory Stick Micro card slot.

Despite the Symbian UIQ, the user interface is very simplified, taking after the standart non-smartphone Sony Ericsson user interface. Sony Ericsson G700 has a very convenient one-touch full organiser function accessible from the home screen, as well as a touch-controlled Notes application, while the G900 home screen is equiped with one-touch media functions. You can find our review of the Sony Ericsson G700 here.

The Sony Ericsson G900 sports a 5 megapixel autofocus camera with image and video stabilizer, while the G700 has a 3.2 megapixel camera with no autofocus, yet the image and video stabilizer are on-board. An intriguing feature of G900 is the ability to manually select the focus point when you shoot just by tapping on the display. Another feature Sony Ericsson G900 has over the G700 is the Wi-Fi connectivity. You can find our Sony Ericsson G900 review over here.

Sony Ericsson G900 costs about 340 euro (530 dollars) in the online shops, while the Sony Ericsson G700 is worth as little as 265 euro (410 US dollars). Those are both slightly more than the initial estimates.

^yes.inquired.he says another Rs1200 will cost for 2GB model.(~11900K) .also I cannot now try to replace this set as it is already in use. :D Inquired the price at other shops and they all said the same.

EDIT:I just called Sony Ericsson call centre.the guy at call centre verified their exists K810i + 128MB M2 model which he quoted Rs12400/- :shock: and 2GB model at Rs13800/- :shock: :shock: I am like WTF? I told him I brought it for Rs10600/- and the guy said the stocks are sold by different stockists at different prices in areas of India.

Guys,what is the Delhi/Bombay/Madras price of K810i?I just want to clarify :)

You dont need an AV. You can use mp3 ringtones, so take your favorite songs, and use them as tones. You can use Switch and MP3Resizer to cut down the size of mp3s. You should put the themes in the themes directory. Ringtones go to the sound folder. Wallpapers to picture.

As for antivirus... first make a virus, then antivirus :D

Use MP3 ringtone converter to generate ringtones from ur fav mp3. Btw i dun like most mallu songs[especially new ones...only some clasical. Mostly listen rock,metal nd some hindi]. SO dun knows bout mallu sites.
but u can get the job done using mp3 to ringtone coverters for multiknot poly ringtones.

dOm1naTOr
dOm1naTOr #98
Jun 5, 2008 at 12:48 AM
no pro nd duos are larger cards nd fits only in K750, W800/810/700 etc. They have better transfer rates nd much cheaper.

M2 is bout 1/4 the size of pro duo. And only pro nd duos are supported in memory card readers. SO ull need to put the M2 in mem stick pro/duo/pro duo adapter to use with readers or phones that support pro duos only.

dOm1naTOr #100
Jun 5, 2008 at 1:12 AM
no u cannot use pro or duo caz they are larger cards...
u can use the adapter to make ur M2 a duo or pro compatible.
Pro duo is much cheaper...2 GB for some 500 bucks only.
SE moved to M2 to make the phones more compact.

Is there any code to enable emergency battery power in SE phones?
a_k_s_h_a_y

No code as such. The IR ports blinks when battery is low signaling danger.
Few SE phones die permanently at that stage especially the w580i.
