Just noticed that the K800 uses the same capacity battery as the K750, 900mAh lithium polymer. Just my two cents, but does anyone remember the other time SE didn't upgrade the battery capacity (T610>K700), although that time the battey was decreased for some odd reason. With 3G and a xenon flash, the least SE could have done would be to update the battery.

If you check in the whitepaper, it says they have the same battery, but the K800i will have poorer standby and talktime.

So yes, you're right, another reason why it'll disappoint.

You say the video recording is qcif, what was the video recording on the w800? I know even that wasnt that good, say as good as the nokias. The n70 record mp4 at 15fpc. but video isnt the most important ting to me. Remember this camera phone is one of the few infact probabalt the only newish camera phone to have a camera lens cover.

Sharp 903: no
w900: no
w810: no
nokia 6280: no
nokian80: no
nokia n71: no

Yes I consider the lense cover quite important. Basically, it provides instant access to the camera function without having to unlock the phone. I couldn't do without it. It shat me to tears unlocking the K700 to take photos and I don't wish to go back to not having an active lense cover.

It should certainly have a quicker processor + platform,
as arez/max mentioned above and more importantly ,since it has no gpu,i belive the processor should handle the 320*240 pixels display (play videos in it at fullscreen),so i expect a major change in processor and platform,
i belive its only for marketing reasons that SE didnt put Cif video recording in it.

I think u've missed the set, Samsung E-720 or E730 ( I really don't remeber the exact model name now). My uncle has it and he shoted a video of her daughter crying and brought it to me 2 make a vcd. When i saw the video it was like WHOA!....It's 320x240 resolution and very clear ( higher fps i mean, but not sure the rate though)..
I made a vcd out of it, and then this K790 has broken my heart apart

Would love to know how the music player works - i.e. the interface. Whether it would be similar to current media player, Walkman or a completly new interface. I know the current software has Walkman which won't be in the final release. The Walkman phones missed the option to sort by album which is rather annoying for playing compilations.

@ bavlondon2 & all regarding QCIF video recording - my point being, is that phones such as all of Nokia's recent releases and last years Samsung D600 all have higher video recording resolutions. Its a complete joke that they have the audacity to announce a phone such as the K800i, and keep old functions that arent updated to compete with other manufacturers products.

The D600 especially has outstanding video recording. I think its bloody stupid of SE to not offer higher video recording resolutions, in fact, im certain its a cost cutting scheme, and that the K800i will use similar if not the same hardware as the K750i, and possibly the K700i.

Ever since i got my K750i, although it does seem a large improvement in all terms over the K700i, it never felt like the phone was significantly faster, it just had more (or more developed) features. Why is it i get the feeling the K800i will be the same, and that is why the phone is limited to old outdated aspects such as low quality QCIF video recording ?

Does anybody know what the res on the w800 was ?

Its a shame i admit it but theres nothing we can do. There are loads of other features that SE incorporate that companys like Nokia and Samsung dont have. Like the best walkman software, auto focus, this best pic thing as well as a lens cover. Mobile phones these days area compromise. You cant have everything.

Even a stomperlike the sharp 903 is still issing an active lens cover and its bulky but in return your getting one of the bst cam phones on the market.
