Sony Ericsson K850i - black (unlocked) Review

Sony Ericsson excels at a lot of things, but cell phone design isn't always the company's strong point. It's not that its phone are ugly (most of the time they're quite pretty), but their controls tend be too stylish for their own good. The K850i has the same problem; it's stylish and sharp, but we found its navigation array and camera controls not so easy to use. But before we get there, let's address the good stuff first.

Like most Sony Ericsson handsets, the K850i has a standard candy bar design. With its sleek black hue and green highlights, it's eye-catching without being ostentatious. At 4 inches by 1.9 inches by 0.7 inch, it has an average size though it's a bit weighty at 4.2 ounces. Sony Ericsson always does a good job with its displays, and the K850i is no exception. The 2.25-inch (320x240 pixels) screen supports a bright 262,144 colors. It shows everything well, from graphics to photos and text, and the menus are simple and easy to use. You can adjust the clock size and the brightness, but no other options are customizable.

I have this phone for 4 years already, I had to fix it 3 times but it still works and I am not planning to change it until it completely breaks, it's simply great :)

And yes, touch buttons never stopped working, but numbers 2, 3, 7 and 8 were malfunctioning xD

When I bought this phone I was inlove w it

Liked the shape, the camara and the design of the backgrounds

Then I started to get problems w it

The sound went off completly, like I couldn't listen to anything. Call sonny Ericsson store n they said I have to call the manufactory center and have em fix it... Sucks bc I paid a lot for this phone..
