stezo2k Posted May 7, 2006 Share Posted May 7, 2006 what a sexy phone and a great review :D shame about the lack of features though, the LCD screen on it however looks fantastic Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dessimat0r Posted May 7, 2006 Share Posted May 7, 2006 It would be nice if you could do more pictures of the software on the phone -- I'm more interested in this ;) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Amnesia Posted May 7, 2006 Author Share Posted May 7, 2006 (edited) I'll take additional photos later on. Thanks for the nice comments. For those interested http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewI...AMESE%3AIT&rd=1 @goheel, I've had every phone you could imagine :p The slider function is smooth and doesn't stick. It's the standard spring slider. Edited May 7, 2006 by Amnesia Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Badtz-Maru Posted May 7, 2006 Share Posted May 7, 2006 why are you selling it? if you read the auction, it'd say he bought a few more. (Y) anyways, nice phone, and wonderful home. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Amnesia Posted May 7, 2006 Author Share Posted May 7, 2006 @Couture, just as uber_C said. I'm not selling mine, I'm selling one of the two 'extra' ones I have. @Uber_C, thanks very much. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cheshire Cat Posted May 9, 2006 Share Posted May 9, 2006 Amnesia, How well does the UI / OS work?? Is it on par with the Sony Ericsson / Nokia style ones or is it crap like Motorola? Also, Does anyone know if there are plans for increasing its memory size to a decent level to be better used as an mp3 phone as 128 is a bit pathetic for photos and music and if the camera will have its quality increased over 1.3?

Amnesia Posted May 9, 2006 Author Share Posted May 9, 2006 The UI is quick, no lag or pauses. It's a standard grid menu and it works very well and isn't complicated, although you do have to get used to it a bit. The korean version actually has 512mb, which is odd. I did receive a few photos of an updated model which will support a slot for a memory card, however I think it looks uglier (it looks as if they've gotten rid of the touch buttons). However with the updated version it will still have 1.3 megapixels. The photos look great though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cheshire Cat Posted May 10, 2006 Share Posted May 10, 2006 so would i be better off buying the LG Chocolate or the Sony Ericsson W800i?? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Amnesia Posted May 10, 2006 Author Share Posted May 10, 2006 I never like the design of the W800i. Of course the W800i is an MP3 phone AND has a 2MP camera, AND supports memory sticks. You have a choice of beauty over functionality. (that isn't to say that the Chocolate has no specs, it's just that they could be better) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cheshire Cat Posted May 10, 2006 Share Posted May 10, 2006 tough choice to make methinks.............. a really smart looking phone with minimal functions, or a reasonable looking phone with huge functions. I will have to see what my paycheck on monday brings.......... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Amnesia Posted May 10, 2006 Author Share Posted May 10, 2006 or you could always buy the Vario that I've got on sale :p or the Chocolate that I'm selling too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ElectricDemon Posted May 14, 2006 Share Posted May 14, 2006 Cool review! Am I the only one who thinks that thing has a horrible design/layout? and the fact that is brown (I think). Just makes it a bit 'sickly' to look at. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Amnesia Posted May 14, 2006 Author Share Posted May 14, 2006 it's actually glossy black (like the psp) As for the layout, I guess it's just a matter of getting used to it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mrk Reviews Posted May 19, 2006 Reviews Share Posted May 19, 2006 Got this phone too but I much prefer my k750i, in fact my dad uses this phone and I just use the nice pouch for my k750i :p It's also very easy to randomly touch one of the face buttons when handling it unless you have keylock on all teh time Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
