Great review. Thanks alot!

Anyway, I'm holidaying in Dubai and this phone is cheap in comparison to what it is in Australia.

Should I get it in black or white?

I prefer black, but fewer people have it in white, so if you want to be "unique," go for white.

I was looking at the W810i but then decided to switch my attention to the W850i. Nice review though ;) .

Nice review man, got this phone in November and I can't complain but I hate myself for not doing enough research and finding out that Rogers was getting the K790a a couple days after I got this phone. Also they also started including a 4GB MS aside from the initial 1GB that was with the phone, then again I took a 2 year contract so it is all good :p.

BTW, if you're on a branded phone flash it, its well worth it although I flashed mine to the wrong version (Middle East..).

I spent a little extra and bought the phone unlocked.

have this phone through rogers wireless and love it, much better than my last phone (motorola rokr). i think i'll stick with sony phones from now on.

I'd like to see the W850a, although I believe the next major phone to be release this side of the Atlantic is the W880a.

The W880 is said to be the thinnest Walkman phone yet but from what I have seen of the images circulating over the internet, the keypad is really ugly. From what I've seen, it looks really hard for people with big fingers to press on the keypad. Then again, these images were never confirm to be true by Sony so that is a moot point.

Now just waiting for my 4gb MS Pro Duo and 1GB transflash FREE from Rogers.

I suggest you Debrand your phone with Phone XS. Go to HowardForums for more info regarding how to and such.

Just got my W810 from Rogers and im liking it so far. One thing I dont like is that I cant use MP3s as my ringtone, but i found a workaround.

The Sony Ericsson W810i doesn't need a workaround to be able to use MP3s as ringtones :|

If purchased directly from Sony or another store (without a contract) it will be able to, but in this case he got the phone through a the wireless provider on a contract so the phone is branded and modified according to the providers liking (Remove ability to mute shutter sound, Flash themes, mp3 ringtones and update through SEUS.)

Can you make a recording of 'silence' and change the tone to that? Suppose mine doesnt have thoes features disabled. Its a great phone, and I have owned many, this is by far my faverite, and its soo damn sexy :p

You can use the Sound Recorder function of the phone to record near silence, and use it as a ringtone, assuming this is what you meant.

    • Windows 11's big performance boost is finally available for all

      By sphbecker · Posted

      Close, but it is for any application starting, not just during boot time. In fact, it probably will not improve boot time at all because during a boot, the CPU is already boosting, so a pre-boost wouldn't change anything. I agree that it isn't exciting (especially considering every other OS already does it), but it is a good thing, even if they are just playing catch up.

      Any so called performance increase will be in milliseconds, which nobody will actually notice in real world usage.

      All it does is use the CPU more efficiently during boot to speed up boot times. That's it. Yawn....

      It's not a one or the other kind of thing. Software should run efficiently, and the operating system should appropriately manage the CPU clocks. You could have the best most optimized software on earth, and it will still run faster if the CPU does a better job of boosting as needed. All this is doing is pre-boosting the CPU based on user actions, instead of waiting for the normal detection mechanism to kick in. If the OS knows it is about to need more CPU, why shouldn't it use that knowledge? It's the same idea of downshifting before passing someone, instead of just burying your foot into the peddle and waiting for the transmission to figure out what you want to do.
