The photos that I took with my V800 (same as Z800i) came out quite well. The Z800i has a light as well but I dont think the V3i does (not sure about it though).
The MP3 player on the Z800i is pretty good as well but I have never used the V3i player.

I think the sound quality in the V3i is ok though I would like a radio in there too

don't forget that the V3i has airplane mode which the Z800 doesn't

the V3i is quite limited in features, so an airplaine mode won't be used alot. maby only to input the number of the nice stewardess.
a Z800i will offer more.
but you can install java apps on both phones

I have to say I am scratching my head trying to remember what features (apart from 3G) the Z800 has that the V3i doesn't?

so it might be worth you mentioning here to help in the comparison

hmmm, yes those are differences though

I've never used music DJ and I wonder if even 10% of Sony Ericsson users have?

The flashlight is a good feature but I guess tough to fit on a slim phone

I tend only to glance at the external screen to see who is calling or check the time, but is it really that much bigger on the Z800? in pixels the Z800 is 101x80 whereas the V3i is 96x80

I wonder how many people edit pictures on the phone too?

I guess V3i is currently limited to 512mb because the 1gb transflash are only just becoming available and thats the price that consumers are paying for companies who choose to use the newer smaller memory formats. We'll see the same problem in the latest Sony Ericssons too since large capacity M2 memory sticks wont immediately be available.

going back to the previous point, you said "the V3i is quite limited in features, so an airplaine mode won't be used alot" but really most people who be listening to music or watching a video clip so I guess the only one of those that would be slightly a hinderance to using flight mode is the current memory sizes available

I think I'd still choose the V3i over the Z800

if the browser of the v3i is the same as the v3 then i would opt for the z800.
btw,music dj is a useless feature imo.

what about the UI? i know moto has improved alot over the years, but SE's UI is still better.

the V3 and V3i browsers do seem to be much the same but I use Opera mini anyway and would probably recommend that for most mobiles these days (except for the windows mobile devices which have the excellent "internet explorer mobile" as it is now called)

People do complain about the Motorola UI but I have never understood why. To me it seems to be alot more configurable and personalisable and also there are more settings and tweaks in many of the functions available

Can't say much about the battery of the V3i as I tend to just plonk my phones on chargers at night when I get home

yeah,u can completely personalise the menu of the motos which none of the se phones allow.
i guess some1 had asked 'bout the equalizer,does the mp3 player of the v3i have 1?
