I liked the keypads on my K750 and my W810, so I'll recommend those two models. The only reason I sold my K750 and got a W810 was because the joystick was starting to act up even though I took great care of it. With a W810, you won't encounter such a problem since it uses a D-pad instead of a joystick.

Have my old K300 working perfectly after 2 years without any glitches or hardware problems especially the joystick. my maintainability has kept that joystick perfectly working even with hard scrolling that it seems like it would break, but nothing happens at all. it perfectly makes tactile feedback and is excellent. my perfect partner along with my M600

I've owned a D750i (possibly the best out of the handsets ive owned, still works today with no problems and has been passed down to other family members), w810i (i did love this phone but the paint on the buttons did chip and flake off over time, only fault i could pick though), k800i (The worst SE handset that i've owned, returned 6 of them in total and gave the seventh away because i was sick of the faults on the handset) and a k810i (which started having problems within its first month with buttons not responding).
The reason im looking at the w200i is because its available on T-Mobile for £39.99 with free shipping, its simple and basic but still looks good (which is hard to find in the cheaper end of the market), if it gets bashed or knocked at work then its only a cheap handset that i wont mind replacing and by looking at past experiences the cheaper handsets see to perform better in terms of lastability.
Thanks for the replies though guys but sometime i forget that this forums members are mainly geared towards the high-end handsets so it must seem like a shock for someone to want to move "back" from a k810i to something so simple like the w200i. I have bought my mam a w200i for her birthday and if i like it then i will consider selling my k810i and getting one for myself.

w810-good 2mp camera,good screen,solid build quality and very easy to use or k800-same as k810 but better keypad
I WHOLEHEARTEDLY agree with daviep. It's a coin toss between the W810i and K800i. I have both, and I have a hard time deciding which one to use.
K800i has a better keypad than the K810i imo, so you could go with that. Other than the keypad, they're basically the same. K800i is cheaper than the K810i.
Or go with the W810i if you don't like the size of the K800i/810i. It's a bit smaller. Smaller screen though.

Hmm... I take great care of my phones too, and I used my K750 for about a year without any problems. That made me think that the problems with the joysticks that other Esatonians encountered were due to improper usage or lack of maintenance. However, I was wrong. Towards the end of the tenth month of usage, the joystick became a little insensitive. Not to the point where I could not use my phone anymore, but it was an annoyance nonetheless. That was when I decided to get my W810, which I'm happily using for exactly two months today.

That sounds like a good deal, go for it! W200 represents great value in it's price segment IMO. I'd go for the W810 or K610/K618/V630 personally which are also good value for money.

Agree with you mate, Most esatorians are High-enders
How about considering W300? it has better display(better viewing of pictures and videos than W200) perhaps if you like clamshells this is probably for you
but anyway W200 is yeah, the cheapest music solution and is the best low-end music phone ever offered
