Hi All,

I brought a new SE W810i. I can change the themes with menus and its a good walkman. I paid Rs.14700/- and got SE Speakers with the set. What you guys think on this phone?

Hmm, Basically the software is different if you compare W810i to W700i. In W810i, you can change the icons on the menu. My friend has W700i and the handset is also very nice.

I went to W810i because I have seen Joystick problems in K750i.

My suggesion is go for W810i which is a very good phone.

Wait for few days and the Diwali Offer may help you get for less price

Well i hv W810i since 2 months..

i got it for 16K with small speakers...

Well

Max Volume is not max enough... thats the biggest drawback...

besides these as usual some SE Drawbacks.. .avi cannot b played...Default Video player isnt good...No forward and rewind..!!

Cam is good..EDGE helps a lot...

and theres heavy cracklin in some WAV files..i shuld say many WAV files..i dunno if Cell is to b blamed here..bcoz..when same files were played in N72... the crackling wasnt there..

apart frm it..Mp3 get played with amazing clearity..but as i said..Max Volume isnt that big..

Ya, true, my friend also got W810i yesterday for Rs.14699 but there was no external speaker with the set. When enquired, we got the reply that since price has been reduced, sony does not provide the speaker set any more with the package for free. Well, all in all, it is excellent in all features.

I think I got the external speakers due to Dasara offer. But the thing is I connect my computer speakers.

I first enquired W800i which the dealer told that supply has been stopped. So I went to W810i

For all you SE users out here, go to wap.esato.com (select wml option) from your phone browser to download themes. There are hundreds of good themes for you to download for free.
