The Sony Ericsson K850i is the latest flagship product in the Sony Ericsson K ("Kamera") series. This unlocked GSM cell phone comes in black with silver trim for a professional look. More than just a basic low-resolution camera you get with other mobile phones, the K850i comes complete with a built in 5 mega-pixel camera sensor with Cyber-Shot lens and a xenon flash. The built in Tri-Band 3G antenna provides broadband connectivity speeds anywhere in the world on compatible GSM systems. Built-in Bluetooth 2.0 with A2DP means you can listen to music and answer calls completely wirelessly. Three touch-sensitive soft keys located directly under the display makes navigation and phone usage very user friendly. The Lithium polymer battery provides up an incredible 9 hours of talk time and 350 hours of standby time on standard GSM networks. Other user friendly features include an internal antenna, a built in speakerphone, and support for both traditional Sony Memory Stick Micro cards and MicroSD cards for memory expansion and easy file transfer. The 2.2" color display is QVGA quality TFT LCD with the ability to display up to 262,144 colors. Video phone calls can be made from the K850 thanks to its high speed connectivity and 5 mega-pixel camera.

Summary: Fantastic camera - good phone, radio, music player too!
Comment: This was one of the "show devices" at JavaOne meaning you could purchase an unlocked phone at a discount - due to it's extensive Java support. It's not a T-Mobile officially supported phone so it took a chat with Sony Ericsson support (yes, real live tech support for a phone!) to get all the SMS, web and data modem features working on T-Mobile. But they do work really well. This is a camera with a phone, FM radio, MP3, video, etc added rather than the (usual) other way round. With this phone I don't need to also carry a small P&S camera on trips. I can take macros of interesting products, photos of 8.5x11 documents, etc, and the sharpness and color is quite excellent. The FM radio is great. You can also record phone calls. The Java programming support of this phone is exceptional - it has a 32-bit graphics accelerator and Java APIs for anything imaginable. Sure there are some minor things I wish were different (time from call ending to the phone locking is too short, and I don't see how to change that) but overall I am very happy with it. It's a great all-in-one FM radio, camera, music player, phone which does all of those very well. I use the data modem capability frequently and at 115 kbaud it doesn't set the world on fire, but it's very usable for working on the go almost anywhere there is a GPRS signal. It does all these things better than an iPhone (which actually doesn't offer all of them) in my opinion, though the iPhone wins on its slick user interface and larger LCD. But I will take my TMobile price over the iPhone ATT-only plans any day. Bluetooth headset works well. Also the PC software for syncing, backup etc works well once you get the latest update from the Sony Ericsson web site.
