Too many different opinions, some say typing good on k850 some say bad.................no idea what to do now. How is the W902 for typing??


if you type a lot on your phone; then get a P1i.... i had my friend's P1i for a week and man!!.. typing is a real pleasure with it.


keep in mind that nothing can reach the typing capability of the P990i but due to the lack of RAM and being VERY old (i have mine since 2 years ago); it's unsuggestible.

Does any one here think overall the c902 is not a very good phone??

My problems are

-Texting- Phones are meant for texting so why are the buttons so poor, when you type a text the buttons hardly go down which makes speed typing impossible
-Screen is too small, some may find this okay but after coming from a w910 its a real pain
-Poor camera-All the pics posted here from c902 all look great, but you will have chosen the right settings (focus etc). For normal point and shoot the shots are very poor. The pics might look good if i took forever choosing the right settings for the right weather conditions etc. By then the moments gone, so not impressed.
-Pics look bad on screen- When you take a pic the shots on the screen look slightly blurry, but when you zoom in slightly the pic looks sharper and clearer.
-Materials used- The back cover (while looking nice) is not very pratical as it is slippy and you can loose grip, which i a real bummer, i was looking forward to trying out some of the new motion games (bowling etc), but that seems unikely as i will probs throw the phone across the room.

Rant over, on the pluses the blue light when you turn on the camera looks nice and the phone looks nice as well, and the touch buttons look nice (rather have larger screen).

Do you have these problems?? (have latest firmware)

Do you think the K850 would be a suitable option?


Haha, I've just gone froma W910 to C902, and I'm gona return it and get the W705.

- Buttons too stiff for texting, makes my fingers hurt.
- Screen IS too small.
- Camera hasn't impressed me, not as good as K850.
- Can't get the back cover off unless I use a knife.

Decided I prefer slider phones so I'm gona return it and wait for the W705.

In my opinion the k850i is great, mine way made in late 07 so it's one of the earlier ones made
Now to go over the points:
Texting- Not the best, but mind you my idea of good is the n93's keypad which is gloriously large and comfy. It's pretty good, decent amount of feedback and of course lots of space between keys makes them easy to indentify when not looking.
Screen-bigger than the c902. end of story. and i take it that it'd be brighter and more contrasty overall( it's really good)
Poor camera- I think in general SE have had better days with their camera phones i haven't used a c902 but i own a n82(which i daresay is the best 5mpx camera on a phone around) and the k850i's camera is good enough that i don't have any problems taking it instead of the n82(since the n82 is ugly)-xenon flash is miles ahead of the photoflash
Materials-i gotta hand it to the c902- it seems like a solidly built phone with the metal as well. k850i is fine, only creaks near the bottom part

so the point i'd say it'd b a hard choice but i'd rather have the k850i

went from the c902 to w902 .... much better keypad with a bigger screen
and the same camera - result :-]
The build of the W902 is no way as good as the c902 but hey I've got
a phone that's just about perfect for me !

The only time the camera has a problem is in low light, but that's to
be expected as it's NOT a digital camera !!!!

Well i might as well stick with my c902 as there arnt that many se phones out at the moment (in store). Thinking G705 but no one knows over here when it will be out, G900 never was available over here (a day at most).

Hopefully the C902 succesor will come along (i expect) and i will get that but only after 10months or so after all the problems have gone(I now expect all new se phones to have a lot of bugs or design problems)

I'd return the C902 and wait for the W705, it's expected to be out within the next 3 months. It doesn't have af which is surprising as I thought the W902 was a breakthrough.

Where did you get your C902 from?

Unfortunately yes all new post K850 SE phones have some sort of problems, se really need to start doing what they did in '05/06/early07 if they want to survive.
