Well for starters it certainly looks the part, albeit a bit chunky from the side. Also I love that it's got so many features & the blue or green glowing buttons (depending on your colour selection) mark it out from the drab Orange or white LED's on other phone key pads. I read Rick's review (he is in the UK) & he uses a K800i at the moment which is another fine cybershot phone. This phone is thinner that the K800i & although the K850i has a 5 Megapixel camera, this simply refers to the size of the final picture, & not the quality. The quality of the image is defined by the grade of sensors that refine what the camera lens sees. Also, the focal length of the lens plays a part in quality of images taken. The K800i camera has a focal length of 5.2mm which is good. It is a thicker phone than the K850i so it can accommodate this, yet the K850i being thinner could reduce the focal length of the lens, making it more likely a lower focal length is used. This results in lower quality images. I would recommend this phone to anyone, & even though it's Sony Ericsson's latest Cyber-shot phone, it's still not a replacement for a digital camera.
