Whats the difference between k750i and w810i

Apart from the bundled 512mb memory card and software.

Looking at around £130 for the w810i and about half that for the k750i. On spec sheet they seem exactly the same phone. Apart from the walkman branding is there any point in getting the w810i over the k750i that justifies spending twice as much?

And the cover and the headphones you get with the phone. Thats all there is.

W810i can also do Flash animated themes & menus plus faster data transfer (EDGE).

Are you serious?! What good is a phone if you can't charge it?!

Yep, the standard retail package consists of:
Phone,
Mains charger,
USB sync&charge cable,
Stereo handsfree cable,
A small memory card (something like 64MB if I remember correctly)

One of the highstreet computer and appliance retailers were doing the W810 on orange PAYG for £80! :eek:

Don't know if that offer still stands though.

£89 and the offer still stands. Think blue shirts.

The W810i has a slighly bigger screen than the K750i, but same resolution. So the image is bigger, but you lose a small amount of quality.

Apart from that, what has already been said. There's not a massive amount of difference.

The W810i has the D-Pad instead of a joystick, which was very prone to failure on the K750i.

Ah my mistake. It's still a 'red' hot, 'spicy' offer at that price though

You can get K750 for half the price of the w810 so its better value. I got my K750i for £26 from o2 shop - they gave me payg upgrade price.... gave phone to mum mum as I have a nokia 6233.
