Piling on the photo features shouldn’t mean that normal phone functions suffer. The K850i’s photos and 2.2-inch LCD look lovely – but not quite lovely enough to make up for its ease of use letdowns. Best offers for the Sony Ericsson K850...

Sony Ericssons K800i was the first phone we reviewed that took photos good enough to print. The K800i had a 3.2-megapixel sensor, but the K850i comes with a digital camera-rivalling 5-megapixel sensor. Like the K800i, the K850i is half phone, half...

designThe first observation most will make about the K850i is regarding its thickness: theres no escaping the reality that this phone is bulky. The design is not especially sharp-edged and will fit into most pockets, but its certainly not for those...

call quality and fast Internet over 3G. Excellent camera for a phone. Solid music player software.
Expensive for a nonsmartphone device. Web and camera still limited compared to the very high end. Standby life shorter than expected. No choice but to use proprietary budget earbuds.
Theres little doubt that the K850i is a very capable phone. For casual photographers or just those who prefer immediacy over absolute quality, the interface and output of the phone are both good enough to stand in as replacements for a separate camera...

Last year, the K800 was the best 3-megapixel cameraphone in our comparison, and after the 5-megapixel models like the N95 were announced, SE had to do something to stay compatitive. The K810 was just a minor update, redesigning the exterior but not imp...
