Hi. . .

I want to upgrade my existing cell (T230i) , but am confused as whether
I should go for K750i or w800.

I have read that if we have a good handsfree like HPM-70, there is
little difference in the mp3 quality between the two. . is it true ?
Because thats the only difference . . as they have the same 2 MP camera
.. .

please advice

Gautam

The W800i comes with much more memory, ie: it's bundled with a larger
seperate memory card than the k750i, and also the w800i has better
headphones, and can have the phone function switched off, allowing it to
funciton as just an mp3 player if you dont' want to receive calls/texts,
blah de blah.

If you're going to use the phone for mainly mp3 use, then w800i. If you
use wap more, or don't like the colour orange, then the k750i.

Ya ,

thanks for that

but what i wana know specifically is that is there a real difference in
the MP3 playing capability between the two, or is it just the
headphones of w800 which make the difference ?

it's mainly the user interface of the mp3-player, that makes the
difference. If you really want to use it as a music device, forgetthe
K750i.

While the sound quality is quite comparable, the user interface isn't.
You might take a look at the WALKMAN player application of the W800i
and the common Media Player from the K750i.

Between these are AGES!

BTW: If you go for the W810i you get the great Walkman player, a
decent black design and the usefull activity menu from the K750i,
which is replaced with the Walkman Player on the W800i.

Looking at the hardware, the K750i and W800i are identical twins. The W800i
comes with better headphones and a bigger MemoryStick (512Mb compared to
64Mb) as mentioned by others.

Apart from looks, the only real difference lay in the software: The W800i
has Walkman functions i.e. it can play music without turning on the phone
part and the MP3 player is much better than that of the K750i.

My advice: By the one whos looks you like best. If its the K750i, buy a
bigger MemoryStick (512Mb isn't much anyway - go for 1Gb or more), better
headphones and change the software to W800i.

Or get the W800i and if you like the look of the K750i.... change the
cover.

Yes, the hardware is the same, except for the covers. the difference is in
the firmware, and the W800 has a much more advanced MP3 player, with play
lists, sorting functions, etc. It is also possible to upgrade a K750i with
the W800i firmware.
