    the k810i has a much better camera than the k550 (3.2 mp on the k810 and only 2mp on the k550)

    the k810i has a brilliant xenon flash, while the k550 has not very powerful LED's

    the k810i is 3g and the k550 is only 2g

    the k550 has a d-pad and the k810i has a joystick

    the k810 has a bigger, better screen (and a higher resolution) than the k550



    i think that the buttons are easier to use on the k810i because they are bigger than the k550's buttons

    The K810i is bigger and heavier, so if pocketability is a problem you may want to think of that.

    The joystick on the K810i is prone to unreliability after 6 months or so, as with most SE joysticks, whereas a D-pad is more reliable.

    The K810i will cost more.

    So.....
    Is higher spec your priority, pocketability, cost, reliability of joystick?
