lolz 16M... SE 262K screen is equivalent to Nokia 16M bigger Screen.
bigger screen doesnt mean that it is superior quality-wise.
K850i screen is Crystal clear and colour production is very good.

Well well well...
Good topic though..but i have to say i converted a few video songs for K850 and the quality is just brilliant..come on if i want to see a movie in my phone...i will have one video converter..and one standard format..mp4 for eg
...
Who needs loads of format to support when one good format is more than enough...
Se wins all the way...ya media manager is quite slow and buggy..but the real thing about it is next firmware can solve all the problem?..hopefully..
So for me K850 wins..
And i forgot to say...nokia's screen clarity wont stand a chance against crystal clear screen of se!

I took a sample video off a K850 at a Sony shop about a week ago. It recorded an indoor frame rate of 7.5fps which is worse than my S700 of 3 years ago, worse than my wife's W800 from 2 years ago, worse than my P990 from 1 year ago and even worse than my Z558 from 1/2 a year ago. What good is QVGA resolution if you're stuck with such crappy frame rate? You'd have choppy video that would miss capturing even reasonably slow movements. To sum it up, totally and utterly disappointing, more so because it is advertised to go up to 30fps at QVGA resolution. Why don't we all give the poor guy a break and tell him the truth

7.5?

Dude you must be joking or you might have kept the setting for mms video..,
Mind records perfectly at 30 and playback of those video is really superb..
I dont know whether many are replying here just to bash se or is it really some fault in the phone...
Afaik...K850 is awesome...give it a few more firmware updates...it will repeat k750's record...
Please dont write something like this ..coz it really makes se look like some cheap company...and creates a very bad impression...
They are the BEST!

I totally agree, the K850i screen is crystal. I had casino Royal on my phone in 3gp and when my mate seen it he was well inpressed. I trasfered it to his N95 and altough the screen is a few mm bigger the picture was just not as sharp and punchy. the blacks are darker on the se, I don't know if its due to the LCD being closer to the sceen or what but the quality is fantastic.
I love my 038 k850i. True it has it's faults but maybe we are being to picky? For what it can do as a total package, it is trully fantastic.

I still agree that n 95 takes at vga resolution...
But why are we in love with se for so long...coz of it size and feature it packs in that small size...
My friend has got n95 8gb version...
But compared to mine K850 it looks like some mini laptop...!lol..,
Better i dont want to be charged for extra baggage in train ...!

K850 takes video smooth at 30 fps...and playback is just awesome...
And sound recording and reproduction is also great..
Anyway this video is more than enough coz i aint gona shoot a hollywood film

So back to topic. The question asked was: "what video formats does the k850 support?"

So far we said 3gp and mp4 what would be the best bit rate, screen size and sound for it?

Judge for yourself if you think I'm joking, I uploaded the original video here:

Bear in mind, framerates tend to fluctuate depending on the environment, this was taken indoors, I'd say outdoor capture should give better frame rates but the indoor one demonstrated is far from satisfactory. It is not in messaging format and it can't be faulty since it is a display model at a Sony shop, and if you look at my signature you can see how much of an Ericsson/SE freak I am

K850 QVGA at 30fps video rec is a farce. You dont get 30fps unless with very little scene movement. Even in daylight, a lot of the time fps drops to 15fps when there is very fast scene. So instead of false marketing, SE should label it it as QVGA 7.5 to 30fps.
