Sony Ericsson K800i
New to the Irish market is the Sony Ericsson K800i Cyber-Shot, the efforts of phone manufacturers to try and cram more and more pixels into the lenses of the built-in cameras is nothing short of relentless. The image quality from the camera is fantastic, and mp3 playback through the provided headphones is impressive, though bass is a little weak when using the inbuilt speaker.
The K800i is one of the most feature packed phones available today. As well as the 3.2 megapixel camera, the handset includes an FM radio with Radio Data System (displays station name information on the screen of the phone) and SMS, MMS and email messaging. There is also an RSS reader, a hands-free speakerphone, Java games and applications as well as Bluetooth, USB…and more
Some Spec
* A 3.2 megapixel Cyber-shot™ camera with autofocus
* Xenon flash
* Integrated image blogging support
* Memory card slot with hot swap functionality
* 3G support with video calls
* Great MP3 player
* FM radio with RDS
* Infrared port
* Bluetooth stereo support (A2DP)
* Multi-tasking support
Overall this is an attractive, well-balanced phone. The screen is very clear with good definition and colours. It’s a little bit chunky, but to be expected considering all the feature packed into it. Sony Ericsson have out done themselves this time
