I'm looking for a new phone and after long long searches (the local store.) I've come up with 2 possibility's: Sony Ericsson W810i or the K550i.
Both cost arround the same, so cost is not the issue here.
The meaning of this topic is to ask various people who already own either of these 2, to tell me what their oppinions are.
I'll give you mine for reference:
W810i:
+MS Pro Duo (have some of those cards laying around here, thanks to my PSP i never use anymore)
+better zoom then K550i(4x)
+It has a music player!
-how do those 'buttons' work?
-would require me to buy new Memory Cards
So far my favor goes towards the W810i. But if you think I'm wrong, prove it to me. I'm always open for a good argument (backed up by facts that is)
Anyway, thanks for all the future help!

the music player in the w810i is crappy, there is a lot of backround "hiss" when listening to music at low levels, ive basically stopped using the phone for music. Its so frustrating, everything else on the phone is awsome.won't be getting another se phone without testing it first though.

I bought the W810i last November and I'm in love with it! There's so much you can do! I use the mp3 player while i'm at the gym and I've never had any hissing problems with the player.
I bought a gig memory stick for it and upload my favorite tv show (Family Guy) to watch it while i'm on lunch at work. The headset has such great quality. My boyfriend has the same phone and we're always making movies and taking pictures to send to each other.
To be honest - I'm a cell phone murderer - this is my 6th phone in 2 yrs and I drop it all the time. It puts up with a lot of damage!
The talk time is fantastic! I went on vacation this past week and only had to charge it once for about an hour!
We have a TV tuner in our computer and I use my phone to change the channels with Floats Mobile Agent Software and a blue tooth Dongle.
There's so many ways to personalize it too - you can download templates and screen savers to make the phone reflect you. I paid $200 for mine and it was the best investment I could have made.

Get the K550i. Both phones are great, and the 810 has a better camera, but the 550 uses a new, faster interface. My 810 was stupidly laggy for some reason.
