anyone know if SE w810 is any good? is it pretty?
how about the blackberry?

my contract's ending in feb. and i don't know which phone to get. im thinking about going with cingular this time, but i dont know. can you guys suggest a good, pretty phone for me (im a girl =D)? im not into tech stuff so this is my first time actually looking into cell phones before getting one, and since im going to renew my contract, i can pick one from the many free phones that come with the plan so help me make the choice! i have no idea which phone to go with..i guess my quateria is that it has to be pretty, be possible to take pics (hopefully good quality ones), and have other decent features (im not going to add text messaging or any additional junk to my plan lol). oh, and a good reception. ok, thanks!

I don't know if w810 would be "pretty," but it does have good functions and works good, and then there are Samsung sliders.

I love the w810i. I've been wanting it since it was announced... But I have verizon wireless =___= Anyway W810 is the general product itself and W810i is more specific as to what the product is made for... i means international so it's suitable for anyone in the world while W810c is a product geared for China.

I think the W810i is pretty but there are prettier phones. But W810i is TONS prettier than a blackberry any day =/////=

w810i is the same as the w810

I think you mean w810i and w800i

Difference:
w800---tri band phone (does not have 850---which is a band you need if you are in the US...most companies have 850 hardly any of them use 1900)
---34mb of internal memory (but upgradable to 1 gig)


w810i---quad band world phone
---only 20mb of internal memory (but upgradable to 1 gig)

The w810 is a great phone. I have the w800i (I bought it before I new they were coming out with the quad band one sleep.gif) It has lots of functions. It takes pretty good pics and the mp3 music quality is pretty good as well.

Since you are with Cingular they will only carry the w810i.

As for a Blackberry...unless you plain on checking your e-mail a lot and using it to store appointments and such it may not be worth it to you to get it if you aren't going to use those functions. The Blackberry Pearl is sweet.

depends where you are really..

i have the w810i.

pros~
good phone
sleek design

cons~
some firmwares have low headpiece
its very limited to the functionality

by now its somewhat outdated to have a w810..
if your going to buy it unlocked i suggest u might as well buy a k800/k790
or wait a while till more come out :]

^ Sorry. Last time I did research in my area 850 was barely used unless it's changed. Cause I did hear something about companies switching to more 1900 towers. But I have Cingular and they mostly use 850. The Cingluar guy told me so, cause at the time I was having an issue with my phone dropping calls (this was back in Nov of 2006). They lease with T-Mobile for the 1900 tower coverage.

how much would it cost to get a k800/k790 unlocked..how much cheaper would it be with a plan (is it with verizon?)
i think the w800 looks nice..the white and orange one..i dont know if there are any other colors

^
You should have received a CD called Disc2Phone. All you need to do is install that onto your computer and then hook the usb phone cord to the computer to transfer songs.

I find the software a bit glitchy but since I've got a support update on my phone it's working a lot better.
