Design is personal.
And I like the W800i more.
I also like orange colour, my favourite.
I'm tired of black and silver.
Moreover in K750 i dislike the front lines, the keypad with the strange not fitting to anything else there two smaller size square buttons.
The other thing is the joystick, the one on the W800i has some transparent orange rubber-like filling and feels nicer on your fingers.
The quickshare sticker is not my favourite too.
For the specs I would choose W800 over K750 again.
Paying 252 instead of 212 euro, you get:
512Mb over 64Mb memory stick
better software for music
better earphones with an adapter for normal earphones.
What I miss in both phones is the remote volume and next/previous track buttons on the earphone cable.
But I hope an accessory like that will come soon.

^^^^^
he's right, it's about personal choice
i bought W800i, because it matches my burned orange color car, well, kind of
and also for the fact that, when i was shopping for K750, most of the stores purposefully don't carry it, because they're trying to sell the new W800i.
they do that in Taiwan....

k750 is the best
w800 is too ugly ... get the w800 firmware for the k750i and u have the best of both worlds
trust me the k750 looks sooo nice over the w800.
i had two of these phones in my hand and the w800 is not what it seems..
i have the k750 2 months b4 i had the w800 and i was thinking WOW the w800 is nice etc etc but when u get it .. its not that good.
I think my W800i is far better looking than my K750i. At least the W800 is a bit different. Whenever I take my K750i out, theres always some idiot with a T630 who says, "Oh look we have the same phone" and it really pisses me off!!
why dont u just slid the camera open and say "Oh really...". With sarcasm pls.

This is a classic example of personal taste/choice and how everything is subjective. That is, in fact, one of my favorite features about the design... those two little square keys.
And -on a personal note- I don't really like having a telephone that everyone else has, and the W800 has gotten REALLY popular.
I got my K750 thru the internet and our local GSM operator won't be carrying it, (thanks God!

) whereas there's a HUGE campaign launching the W800. And I have already seen several people with one.

i agree. it really comes down to taste. w800 may come with a 512 mb card but you can get one for cheap today and the headphones may be better but i think w800´s design draws to much attention, and the ´white´part of the phone gets yellowish with time as i have already seen in one. Personally, i believe w800 looks feminine and everybody will give it a second look and ask about it when you pull it out, kinda not what i´m looking for.
if u still really prefer w800´s software u can just flash your k750i
i think that se´s old users and fans usually stick with k750i, while new users, attracted to w800´s firy color and outdoors everywhere are really the ones that go for w800

Another thing i like about k750i is the combination of black keys and blue highlight. i know that the black t630 already had that, but its still cool.

I'll say go for w800 they are about the same price but you get more memory and very good handsfree with w800i.

I used to support the fact of personal preference until I saw the pricing for both phone in Malaysia
K750 at sonystyle is RM1899 ( ~USD500)
W800 at sonystyle is RM1999 (~USD526)
I don't think 512MB MSD-pro only cost USD26 more than 64MB MSD
