SE K800i vs K810i

Anyone know what the main differences are between these phones? I'm aware that the K810i effectively replaced the K800i... but what has it got that the K800i hasn't? I've checked the SE website and done the compare. This tells you a little, but not a lot. I wondered if anyone has better info.

  • Not much difference, the loose camera slider on the k800 has been fixed. k810i is just a revamp - cosmetic makeover of the k800i. The bugs in the k800i have been fixed. I do like the shiny new keys, they are so much better than the old k800i square ones. Its a good makeover!
  • ive just got the k800i, its a bloody awesome phone!

    the keys on the k810i are a little fiddly so id stick with k800i

    all you would gain is trackid and photofix (and a slightly better lens cover, as mentioned above).

    the hardware is the same. you can upgrade k800i's into k810i's but loose the top row of backlighting

    The K810i is slightly smaller, thinner and lighter and has better Video Quality. But the big thing for me is that they have appear to have resolved the shutter opening issue.

    At the end of the day the K810i is the newer model, so shops will be trying to get rid of the old K800i and you'll get a better deal on them.

    Just wondered if anyone could tell me why the K800i is still available in most shops but the newer K810i seems to have vanished.
    Thanks.
