K800i released O2

f*ckers

Revels · Jul 6, 2006

I didnt really like it, didnt seem to be much of an "upgrade" from my K750i

KyleB · Jul 6, 2006

i have to disagree revels, screen is much better, phone feels quicker and feels better quality.

camera pictures are spot on too.

k750i is still an incredibly good phone however.

n9orme · Jul 7, 2006

all i can say its sweeter than the k750i give that to the wife..... takes nice pic's also......
you could have paid £350 for a 3.2 meg camera 2 years ago........

philmots · Jul 7, 2006

I got mine last monday and its brilliant, reccomend it to anyone. basically the same as the k750 in how it operates but feels a lot better quality and looks more expensive etc etc. and the pictures are really really good for a mobile!

orange will do this for £30 on a £30 a month contract (so they say) with 650 mins 1100 txts 18 months contract with free broadband? currently out of stock but i find it hard to believe...

Bezza4 · Jul 7, 2006

Mine was free on a £25 a month contract with O2. I chose an 18month contract (I didn't have to go on it), so that I could have 750 free txts and 100 free xnet mins, which is more than enufff for me. So that is believeable from orange. I'd tell them you want it for free.

the deal is true, think its online only, but still good.

the broadband is shite however, its 2gig monthly download limit.

D"w!Z · Jul 8, 2006

i think they can uncap it for £10 more plus its up to 8meg then. so £40 for contract and bb aint bad.

o2 are so desperate 2 keep me but i dont lik the network, sooo sales targeted

Maz · Jul 9, 2006

So did anyone get a mem card with their phones ?? I am expecting mine tomorrow as its been out of stock

V1NNY · Jul 9, 2006

i was looking to get one on orange on upgrade but they want £99 which i almost laughed at lol, i pay £25 a month which is a joke really

no maz. o2 confirmed to me that they didnt come with memory cards. Also on the sony ericsson site it says "memory card support" and not mention anything about it being bundled.

aaronc · Jul 9, 2006

Can you use a 'fixed' button for the camera or do you have to use the joystick on the K800i?

and aaronc if you slide the camera cover open your camera starts automatically

Maz · Jul 9, 2006

Hmmmmmm guess you might be right but I would expect it to be there of its listed ??

James. · Jul 9, 2006

I keep getting this when I try to confirm my order online

..

Any Ideas?

KyleB · Jul 9, 2006

i'd argue for it and you could probably get it, im pissed off with them at the min as they have messed my bill about. changed my tarriff and also overcharged me for my handset.

think im going to orange

KyleB · Jul 9, 2006

sounds like they have taken the site down due to customer recommendations, phone them up tomorrow.

tomehb · Jul 10, 2006

Well the photos below are not great, they were taken at 4am in the morning in dorridge in solihull.. but its great having a camera with a flash (k800i, btw it was quite dark

i must be pretty sad to stop at a garage an take photos of a super car? Still waiting for my gig card for my phone order one of ebay....

sneeks · Jul 10, 2006

Not bad pics at all. Nice car

Oh I will do

lol its kinda like saying it has a 7 hour battery time but you have to buy the battery sep imho .. :rasp: robbing dogs ..

Anyone had this on other networks ?? :S

Bezza4 · Jul 10, 2006

As I said before, I queried the lack of memory card with a very helpful bloke at O2, and he said he wasn't sure whether it should. But told me to buy one at an O2 store, and fax him proof of purchase, and he would credit my account for it.

I did this yesterday, so will have to see whether or not I get my account credited. I have got his name, so if they don't they are going to have some explaining to do. He can't really go back on his word now he has told me to do it.

Maz · Jul 10, 2006

^^ wouldn't be too sure of that Bezza4 .. I won't be buying one .. if my phone doesn't come with one I will be asking them to send me one FOC .. trading standards ..

sneeks · Jul 10, 2006

Be sure and ask them to add notes onto your account whenever they promise to do something for you and then phone back 5 minutes later to check with another operator that the notes are there.

The Hoff · Jul 10, 2006

If its got internal memory then there isn't a need to supply one.

Maz · Jul 10, 2006

^^ don't all phones have that as standard anyway ??

The Hoff · Jul 10, 2006

Yes they have, but it ranges- V3 for example has something like 4mb, which you would need an additional card for, but Samsung/SE usually have 80mb+ which is plenty to be honest.

Be nice if they threw into a 512mb card, but i guess that adds to the package cost and increases unit prices.

Maz · Jul 10, 2006

^^ cheers

still going to push my luck though

lol

The Hoff · Jul 10, 2006

Don't ask, don't get. Use your feminine charm i'm sure you'll get a free highspeed 2gb card

Maz · Jul 10, 2006

Got it .. no mem card . .phoned them and they are looking into it ..

Not sure if I like it tbh .. its bigger and heavier than the K750i

ajketley · Jul 10, 2006

maz - im like you gone from k750i to the k800i, on o2! Are they meant to come with memory cards as mine didnt come with one!? :S I like it so far but your right it is bigger and heavier.

Maz · Jul 10, 2006

I thought they were as it said on the web site but others say not and I didn't get one so I guess they don't come as standard .. not sure if to keep it or send it back now ..

BIG jts · Jul 10, 2006

i didnt get one with mine...had to buy one..

KyleB · Jul 10, 2006

it looks much bigger than the k750i but if you compare the two, its only about half an inch taller.
