Goodbye SE K810i, Hello SE K850i

(SORRY FOR HAVING SO LIMIED PHOTOS... Streamyx down again, will upload by Wed 3 December 2008.


Above, this is how my previous phone looks like...

In case you are wondering what "SE" Stands for, it's SONYERICSSON. Yup, I bought a new handphone to replace my K810i. It's no other than K850i. Colour: Silver Blue (new colour). I bought this phone for RM500 after selling off my 9 months old K810i for RM400. Why I ended up buying this phone?

I originally paid a RM80 booking for SE C902 Titanium Silver James Bond Edition. But at RM1200, I don't have the money to pick up as I can't find my Public Bank PASSBOOK. I told the shop ("Venus Comm" in Digital Mall, PJ) that I will collect 1 week later. Well, 1 week passed and I still can't raise cash to pick up the "James Bond Phone".

To cut the story short, I only managed to raise RM1000. Went back to the shop, Looked at other options, realised that I can get a "BETTER EQUIPPED BUT THICKER PHONE" for RM9xx including Warranty Extension (to 18 mts phone and 12 mts LCD). It's no other than "Silver Blue" SonyEricsson K850i.



The Screen is bigger (2.2" vs 2"), ALSO Touch screen menu, Xenon instead of LED Flash, Cool backlights (See picture below), BETTER Camera and Picture Quality overall. Only "letdown" is that the phone had been in the MARKET for 12 months, compared to NEWLY LAUNCHED TWO WEEKS AGO James Bond Edition.

FINAL WORD: NO REGRET buying This phone though I COULD HAVE been 1 OF THE 1st Owner to own a JAMES BOND PHONE Sigh...
